Tight triangulations are exotic, but highly regular objects in combinatorial topology. A triangulation is tight if all its piecewise linear embeddings into a Euclidean space are as convex as allowed by the topology of the underlying manifold. Tight triangulations are conjectured to be strongly minimal, and proven to be so for dimensions $leq 3$. However, in spite of substantial theoretical results about such triangulations, there are precious few examples. In fact, apart from dimension two, we do not know if there are infinitely many of them in any given dimension. In this paper, we present a computer-friendly combinatorial scheme to obtain tight triangulations, and present new examples in dimensions three, four and five. Furthermore, we describe a family of tight triangulated $d$-manifolds, with $2^{d-1} lfloor d / 2 rfloor ! lfloor (d-1) / 2 rfloor !$ isomorphically distinct members for each dimension $d geq 2$. While we still do not know if there are infinitely many tight triangulations in a fixed dimension $d > 2$, this result shows that there are abundantly many.

It is well known that a triangulation of a closed 2-manifold is tight with respect to a field of characteristic two if and only if it is neighbourly; and it is tight with respect to a field of odd characteristic if and only if it is neighbourly and o
rientable. No such characterization of tightness was previously known for higher dimensional manifolds. In this paper, we prove that a triangulation of a closed 3-manifold is tight with respect to a field of odd characteristic if and only if it is neighbourly, orientable and stacked. In consequence, the K{u}hnel-Lutz conjecture is valid in dimension three for fields of odd characteristic. Next let $mathbb{F}$ be a field of characteristic two. It is known that, in this case, any neighbourly and stacked triangulation of a closed 3-manifold is $mathbb{F}$-tight. For triangulated closed 3-manifolds with at most 71 vertices or with first Betti number at most 188, we show that the converse is true. But the possibility of an $mathbb{F}$-tight non-stacked triangulation on a larger number of vertices remains open. We prove the following upper bound theorem on such triangulations. If an $mathbb{F}$-tight triangulation of a closed 3-manifold has $n$ vertices and first Betti number $beta_1$, then $(n-4)(617n- 3861) leq 15444beta_1$. Equality holds here if and only if all the vertex links of the triangulation are connected sums of boundary complexes of icosahedra.
In this paper, we explore minimal contact triangulations on contact 3-manifolds. We give many explicit examples of contact triangulations that are close to minimal ones. The main results of this article say that on any closed oriented 3-manifold the
number of vertices for minimal contact triangulations for overtwisted contact structures grows at most linearly with respect to the relative $d^3$ invariant. We conjecture that this bound is optimal. We also discuss, in great details, contact triangulations for a certain family of overtwisted contact structures on 3-torus.
We describe several methods to construct minimal foliations by hyperbolic surfaces on closed 3-manifolds, and discuss the properties of the examples thus obtained.
We investigate a PL topology question: which circle bundles can be triangulated over a given triangulation of the base? The question got a simple answer emphasizing the role of minimal triangulations encoded by local systems of circular permutations
of vertices of the base simplices. The answer is based on an experimental fact: classical Huntington transitivity axiom for cyclic orders can be expressed as the universal binary Chern cocycle.
For a field $mathbb{F}$, the notion of $mathbb{F}$-tightness of simplicial complexes was introduced by Kuhnel. Kuhnel and Lutz conjectured that any $mathbb{F}$-tight triangulation of a closed manifold is the most economic of all possible triangulatio
ns of the manifold. The boundary of a triangle is the only $mathbb{F}$-tight triangulation of a closed 1-manifold. A triangulation of a closed 2-manifold is $mathbb{F}$-tight if and only if it is $mathbb{F}$-orientable and neighbourly. In this paper we prove that a triangulation of a closed 3-manifold is $mathbb{F}$-tight if and only if it is $mathbb{F}$-orientable, neighbourly and stacked. In consequence, the Kuhnel-Lutz conjecture is valid in dimension $leq 3$.
