The L²-invariants and Morse numbers

Vladimir V. Sharko (2009)

Banach Center Publications

We study the homotopy invariants of free cochain complexes and Hilbert complexes. These invariants are applied to calculation of exact values of Morse numbers of smooth manifolds.

The Laplacian spectral radius of graphs

Jianxi Li, Wai Chee Shiu, An Chang (2010)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The Laplacian spectral radius of a graph is the largest eigenvalue of the associated Laplacian matrix. In this paper, we improve Shi's upper bound for the Laplacian spectral radius of irregular graphs and present some new bounds for the Laplacian spectral radius of some classes of graphs.

The Laplacian spectrum of some digraphs obtained from the wheel

Li Su, Hong-Hai Li, Liu-Rong Zheng (2012)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

The problem of distinguishing, in terms of graph topology, digraphs with real and partially non-real Laplacian spectra is important for applications. Motivated by the question posed in [R. Agaev, P. Chebotarev, Which digraphs with rings structure are essentially cyclic?, Adv. in Appl. Math. 45 (2010), 232-251], in this paper we completely list the Laplacian eigenvalues of some digraphs obtained from the wheel digraph by deleting some arcs.

The Laplacian spread of graphs

Zhifu You, Bo Lian Liu (2012)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The Laplacian spread of a graph is defined as the difference between the largest and second smallest eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix of the graph. In this paper, bounds are obtained for the Laplacian spread of graphs. By the Laplacian spread, several upper bounds of the Nordhaus-Gaddum type of Laplacian eigenvalues are improved. Some operations on Laplacian spread are presented. Connected c -cyclic graphs with n vertices and Laplacian spread n - 1 are discussed.

The leafage of a chordal graph

In-Jen Lin, Terry A. McKee, Douglas B. West (1998)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

The leafage l(G) of a chordal graph G is the minimum number of leaves of a tree in which G has an intersection representation by subtrees. We obtain upper and lower bounds on l(G) and compute it on special classes. The maximum of l(G) on n-vertex graphs is n - lg n - 1/2 lg lg n + O(1). The proper leafage l*(G) is the minimum number of leaves when no subtree may contain another; we obtain upper and lower bounds on l*(G). Leafage equals proper leafage on claw-free chordal graphs. We use asteroidal...

The Least Eigenvalue of Graphs whose Complements Are Uni- cyclic

Yi Wang, Yi-Zheng Fan, Xiao-Xin Li, Fei-Fei Zhang (2015)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

A graph in a certain graph class is called minimizing if the least eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix attains the minimum among all graphs in that class. Bell et al. have identified a subclass within the connected graphs of order n and size m in which minimizing graphs belong (the complements of such graphs are either disconnected or contain a clique of size n/2 ). In this paper we discuss the minimizing graphs of a special class of graphs of order n whose complements are connected and contains...

The lifted root number conjecture for fields of prime degree over the rationals: an approach via trees and Euler systems

Cornelius Greither, Radiu Kučera (2002)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

The so-called Lifted Root Number Conjecture is a strengthening of Chinburg’s Ω ( 3 ) - conjecture for Galois extensions K / F of number fields. It is certainly more difficult than the Ω ( 3 ) -localization. Following the lead of Ritter and Weiss, we prove the Lifted Root Number Conjecture for the case that F = and the degree of K / F is an odd prime, with another small restriction on ramification. The very explicit calculations with cyclotomic units use trees and some classical combinatorics for bookkeeping. An important...
