Counting points of slope varieties over finite fields.
We analyze the spectra of the cover matrix of a given poset. Some consequences on the multiplicities are provided.
The concept of covering energy of a poset is known and its McClelland type bounds are available in the literature. In this paper, we establish formulas for the covering energy of a crown with elements and a fence with elements. A lower bound for the largest eigenvalue of a poset is established. Using this lower bound, we improve the McClelland type bounds for the covering energy for some special classes of posets.
We compute the Coxeter polynomial of a family of Salem trees, and also the limit of the spectral radii of their Coxeter transformations as the number of their vertices tends to infinity. We also prove that if z is a root of multiplicities for the Coxeter polynomials of the trees respectively, then z is a root for the Coxeter polynomial of their join, of multiplicity at least where .
Let ₁,₂,...,ₙ be graph properties, a graph G is said to be uniquely (₁,₂, ...,ₙ)-partitionable if there is exactly one (unordered) partition V₁,V₂,...,Vₙ of V(G) such that for i = 1,2,...,n. We prove that for additive and induced-hereditary properties uniquely (₁,₂,...,ₙ)-partitionable graphs exist if and only if and are either coprime or equal irreducible properties of graphs for every i ≠ j, i,j ∈ 1,2,...,n.
The graph Ramsey number R(G,H) is the smallest integer r such that every 2-coloring of the edges of Kr contains either a red copy of G or a blue copy of H. The star-critical Ramsey number r∗(G,H) is the smallest integer k such that every 2-coloring of the edges of Kr − K1,r−1−k contains either a red copy of G or a blue copy of H. We will classify the critical graphs, 2-colorings of the complete graph on R(G,H) − 1 vertices with no red G or blue H, for the path-path Ramsey number. This classification...
