  text: 'We introduce a common generalization of the strong Hanani–Tutte theorem and
    the weak Hanani–Tutte theorem: if a graph G has a drawing D in the plane where
    every pair of independent edges crosses an even number of times, then G has a
    planar drawing preserving the rotation of each vertex whose incident edges cross
    each other evenly in D. The theorem is implicit in the proof of the strong Hanani–Tutte
    theorem by Pelsmajer, Schaefer and Štefankovič. We give a new, somewhat simpler
    proof.'

  text: A d-dimensional simplex S is called a k-reptile (or a k-reptile simplex) if
    it can be tiled by k simplices with disjoint interiors that are all mutually congruent
    and similar to S. For d = 2, triangular k-reptiles exist for all k of the form
    a^2, 3a^2 or a^2+b^2 and they have been completely characterized by Snover, Waiveris,
    and Williams. On the other hand, the only k-reptile simplices that are known for
    d ≥ 3, have k = m^d, where m is a positive integer. We substantially simplify
    the proof by Matoušek and the second author that for d = 3, k-reptile tetrahedra
    can exist only for k = m^3. We then prove a weaker analogue of this result for
    d = 4 by showing that four-dimensional k-reptile simplices can exist only for
    k = m^2.
