The object of the present paper is to study $\eta$-Ricci solitons on $\eta$-Einstein ${\left(LCS\right)}_n$-manifolds. It is shown that if $\xi$ is a recurrent torse forming $\eta$-Ricci soliton on an $\eta$-Einstein ${\left(LCS\right)}_n$-manifold then $\xi$ is (i) concurrent and (ii) Killing vector field.

In this paper we solve the problem of finding integrals of equations determining the Killing tensors on an $n$-dimensional differentiable manifold $M$ endowed with an equiaffine $SL(n,)$-structure and discuss possible applications of obtained results in Riemannian geometry.

Given any compact manifold $M$, we construct a non-empty open subset $𝒪$ of the space ${\mathrm{Diff}}^1\left(M\right)$ of $C^1$-diffeomorphisms and a dense subset $𝒟\subset 𝒪$ such that the centralizer of every diffeomorphism in $𝒟$ is uncountable, hence non-trivial.

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with nonzero identity and $J\left(R\right)$ the Jacobson radical of $R$. The Jacobson graph of $R$, denoted by ${𝔍}_R$, is defined as the graph with vertex set $R\setminus J\left(R\right)$ such that two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $1-xy$ is not a unit of $R$. The genus of a simple graph $G$ is the smallest nonnegative integer $n$ such that $G$ can be embedded into an orientable surface $S_n$. In this paper, we investigate the genus number of the compact Riemann surface in which ${𝔍}_R$ can be embedded and...

Edge-colourings of graphs have been studied for decades. We study edge-colourings with respect to hereditary graph properties. For a graph $G$, a hereditary graph property $𝒫$ and $l\ge 1$ we define ${\chi }_{𝒫,l}^{\text{'}}\left(G\right)$ to be the minimum number of colours needed to properly colour the edges of $G$, such that any subgraph of $G$ induced by edges coloured by (at most) $l$ colours is in $𝒫$. We present a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of ${\chi }_{𝒫,l}^{\text{'}}\left(G\right)$. We focus on edge-colourings of graphs with respect to the hereditary...

Let $X$ be a complex Fano manifold of arbitrary dimension, and $D$ a prime divisor in $X$. We consider the image ${𝒩}_1(D,X)$ of ${𝒩}_1\left(D\right)$ in ${𝒩}_1\left(X\right)$ under the natural push-forward of $1$-cycles. We show that ${\rho }_X-{\rho }_D\le codim{𝒩}_1(D,X)\le 8$. Moreover if $codim{𝒩}_1(D,X)\ge 3$, then either $X\cong S\times T$ where $S$ is a Del Pezzo surface, or $codim{𝒩}_1(D,X)=3$ and $X$ has a fibration in Del Pezzo surfaces onto a Fano manifold $T$ such that ${\rho }_X-{\rho }_T=4$.

We prove that any first order ${ℱ}_2{ℳ}_{m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2}$-natural operator transforming projectable general connections on an $(m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2)$-dimensional fibred-fibred manifold $p=(p,p):(p_Y:Y\to Y)\to (p_M:M\to M)$ into general connections on the vertical prolongation $VY\to M$ of $p:Y\to M$ is the restriction of the (rather well-known) vertical prolongation operator $𝒱$ lifting general connections $\overline{\Gamma }$ on a fibred manifold $Y\to M$ into $𝒱\overline{\Gamma }$ (the vertical prolongation of $\overline{\Gamma }$) on $VY\to M$.

Let $X$ be a compact hyperkähler manifold containing a complex torus $L$ as a Lagrangian subvariety. Beauville posed the question whether $X$ admits a Lagrangian fibration with fibre $L$. We show that this is indeed the case if $X$ is not projective. If $X$ is projective we find an almost holomorphic Lagrangian fibration with fibre $L$ under additional assumptions on the pair $(X,L)$, which can be formulated in topological or deformation-theoretic terms. Moreover, we show that for any such almost holomorphic...

Let $T_1,\cdots ,T_d$ be homogeneous trees with degrees $q_1+1,\cdots ,q_d+1\ge 3$, respectively. For each tree, let $𝔥:T_j\to \mathbb{Z}$ be the Busemann function with respect to a fixed boundary point (end). Its level sets are the horocycles. The horocyclic product of $T_1,\cdots ,T_d$ is the graph $\mathrm{𝖣𝖫}(q_1,\cdots ,q_d)$ consisting of all $d$-tuples $x_1\cdots x_d\in T_1\times \cdots \times T_d$ with $𝔥\left(x_1\right)+\cdots +𝔥\left(x_d\right)=0$, equipped with a natural neighbourhood relation. In the present paper, we explore the geometric, algebraic, analytic and probabilistic properties of these graphs and their isometry groups. If $d=2$ and $q_1=q_2=q$ then we obtain a Cayley graph...

We study here several finiteness problems concerning affine Nash manifolds $M$ and Nash subsets $X$. Three main results are: (i) A Nash function on a semialgebraic subset $Z$ of $M$ has a Nash extension to an open semialgebraic neighborhood of $Z$ in $M$, (ii) A Nash set $X$ that has only normal crossings in $M$ can be covered by finitely many open semialgebraic sets $U$ equipped with Nash diffeomorphisms $(u_1,\cdots ,u_m):U\to {ℝ}^m$ such that $U\cap X=\{u_1\cdots u_r=0\}$, (iii) Every affine Nash manifold with corners $N$ is a closed subset of an affine Nash...

We show that, given any n and α, any embedding of any sufficiently large complete graph in ℝ³ contains an oriented link with components Q₁, ..., Qₙ such that for every i ≠ j, $\left|lk\right(Q_i,Q_j\left)\right|\ge \alpha$ and $\left|a₂\right(Q_i\left)\right|\ge \alpha$, where $a₂\left(Q_i\right)$ denotes the second coefficient of the Conway polynomial of $Q_i$.

Let ${\mu }_{n-1}\left(G\right)$ be the algebraic connectivity, and let ${\mu }_1\left(G\right)$ be the Laplacian spectral radius of a $k$-connected graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. In this paper, we prove that $${\mu }_{n-1}\left(G\right)\ge \frac{2n{k}^2}{(n(n-1)-2m)(n+k-2)+2k^2},$$ with equality if and only if $G$ is the complete graph $K_n$ or $K_n-e$. Moreover, if $G$ is non-regular, then $${\mu }_1\left(G\right)<2\Delta -\frac{2(n\Delta -2m)k^2}{2(n\Delta -2m)(n^2-2n+2k)+n{k}^2},$$ where $\Delta$ stands for the maximum degree of $G$. Remark that in some cases, these two inequalities improve some previously known results.

Let Fⁿ be a connected, smooth and closed n-dimensional manifold satisfying the following property: if $N^m$ is any smooth and closed m-dimensional manifold with m > n and $T:N^m\to N^m$ is a smooth involution whose fixed point set is Fⁿ, then m = 2n. We describe the equivariant cobordism classification of smooth actions $(M^m;\Phi )$ of the group $G=Z{₂}^k$ on closed smooth m-dimensional manifolds $M^m$ for which the fixed point set of the action is a submanifold Fⁿ with the above property. This generalizes a result of F....

The generalized $k$-connectivity ${\kappa }_k\left(G\right)$ of a graph $G$ was introduced by Chartrand et al. in 1984. As a natural counterpart of this concept, Li et al. in 2011 introduced the concept of generalized $k$-edge-connectivity which is defined as ${\lambda }_k\left(G\right)=min\{\lambda \left(S\right):S\subseteq V\left(G\right)$ and $\left|S\right|=k\}$, where $\lambda \left(S\right)$ denotes the maximum number $\ell$ of pairwise edge-disjoint trees $T_1,T_2,...,T_{\ell }$ in $G$ such that $S\subseteq V\left(T_i\right)$ for $1\le i\le \ell$. In this paper we prove that for any two connected graphs $G$ and $H$ we have ${\lambda }_3(G\square H)\ge {\lambda }_3\left(G\right)+{\lambda }_3\left(H\right)$, where $G\square H$ is the Cartesian product of $G$ and $H$. Moreover, the bound is sharp. We also...

Let X be a Polish space, and let C₀ and C₁ be disjoint coanalytic subsets of X. The pair (C₀,C₁) is said to be complete if for every pair (D₀,D₁) of disjoint coanalytic subsets of ${\omega }^{\omega }$ there exists a continuous function $f:{\omega }^{\omega }\to X$ such that $f^{-1}\left(C₀\right)=D₀$ and $f^{-1}\left(C₁\right)=D₁$. We give several explicit examples of complete pairs of coanalytic sets.

Let G be a graph of order n and size m. A γ-labeling of G is a one-to-one function f:V(G) → 0,1,2,...,m that induces a labeling f’: E(G) → 1,2,...,m of the edges of G defined by f’(e) = |f(u)-f(v)| for each edge e = uv of G. The value of a γ-labeling f is $val\left(f\right)={\Sigma }_{e\in E\left(G\right)}{f}^{\text{'}}K\left(e\right)$. The maximum value of a γ-labeling of G is defined as $va{l}_{max}\left(G\right)=maxval\left(f\right):fisa\gamma -labelingofG$; while the minimum value of a γ-labeling of G is $va{l}_{min}\left(G\right)=minval\left(f\right):fisa\gamma -labelingofG$; The values $va{l}_{max}\left(S_{p,q}\right)$ and $va{l}_{min}\left(S_{p,q}\right)$ are determined for double stars $S_{p,q}$. We present characterizations of connected graphs G of order n for which...

We study  how a projectable general connection $\Gamma$ in a 2-fibred manifold $Y^2\to Y^1\to Y^0$  and a general vertical connection $\Theta$ in $Y^2\to Y^1\to Y^0$ induce a general connection $A(\Gamma ,\Theta )$ in $Y^2\to Y^1$.

In this paper, we study the size of the giant component $C_G$ in the random geometric graph $G=G(n,r_n,f)$ of $n$ nodes independently distributed each according to a certain density $f(·)$ in ${[0,1]}^2$ satisfying ${inf}_{x\in {[0,1]}^2}f\left(x\right)gt;$ $0$. If $\frac{c_1}{n}\le r_n^2\le c_2\frac{logn}{n}$ for some positive constants $c_1$, $c_2$ and $n{r}_n^2⟶\infty$ as $n\to \infty$, we show that the giant component of $G$ contains at least $n-\mathrm{o}\left(n\right)$ nodes with probability at least $1-{\mathrm{e}}^{-\beta n{r}_n^2}$ for all $n$ and for some positive constant $\beta$. We also obtain estimates on the diameter and number of the non-giant components of $G$.
