We consider the problem of constructing Steiner minimum trees for a metric defined by a polygonal unit circle (corresponding
to σ ≥ 2 weighted legal orientations in the plane). A linear-time algorithm to enumerate all angle configurations for degree three
Steiner points is given. We provide a simple proof that the angle configuration for a Steiner point extends to all Steiner
points in a full Steiner minimum tree, such that at most six orientations suffice for edges in a full Steiner minimum tree.
We show that the concept of canonical forms originally introduced for the uniform orientation metric generalises to the fixed
orientation metric. Finally, we give an O(σ
n) time algorithm to compute a Steiner minimum tree for a given full Steiner topology with n terminal leaves. 相似文献

In the absence of the axiom of choice four versions of compactness (A-, B-, C-, and D-compactness) are investigated. Typical results:
- C-compact spaces form the epireflective hull in Haus of A-compact completely regular spaces.
- Equivalent are:
- the axiom of choice,
- A-compactness = D-compactness,
- B-compactness = D-compactness,
- C-compactness = D-compactness and complete regularity,
- products of spaces with finite topologies are A-compact,
- products of A-compact spaces are A-compact,
- products of D-compact spaces are D-compact,
- powers X k of 2-point discrete spaces are D-compact,
- finite products of D-compact spaces are D-compact,
- finite coproducts of D-compact spaces are D-compact,
- D-compact Hausdorff spaces form an epireflective subcategory of Haus,
- spaces with finite topologies are D-compact.
- Equivalent are:
- the Boolean prime ideal theorem,
- A-compactness = B-compactness,
- A-compactness and complete regularity = C-compactness,
- products of spaces with finite underlying sets are A-compact,
- products of A-compact Hausdorff spaces are A-compact,
- powers X k of 2-point discrete spaces are A-compact,
- A-compact Hausdorff spaces form an epireflective subcategory of Haus.
- Equivalent are:
- either the axiom of choice holds or every ultrafilter is fixed,
- products of B-compact spaces are B-compact.
- Equivalent are:
- Dedekind-finite sets are finite,
- every set carries some D-compact Hausdorff topology,
- every T 1-space has a T 1-D-compactification,
- Alexandroff-compactifications of discrete spaces and D-compact.

LetS = {A, B, C, D} consist of the four corner points of a convex quadrilateral where diagonals [A, C] and [B, D] intersect at the pointO. There are two possible full Steiner trees forS, theAB-CD tree hasA andB adjacent to one Steiner point, andC andD to another; theAD-BC tree hasA andD adjacent to one Steiner point, andB andC to another. Pollak proved that if both full Steiner trees exist, then theAB-CD (AD-BC) tree is the Steiner minimal tree if
AOD>3 (<) 90°, and both are Steiner minimal trees if
AOD=90°. While the theorem has been crucially used in obtaining results on Steiner minimal trees in general, its applicability is sometimes restricted because of the condition that both full Steiner trees must exist. In this paper we remove this obstacle by showing: (i) Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of either full Steiner tree forS. (ii) If
AOD90°, then theAB-CD tree is the SMT even if theAD-BC tree does not exist. (iii) If
AOD<90° but theAD-BC tree does not exist, then theAB-CD tree cannot be ruled out as a Steiner minimal tree, though under certain broad conditions it can. 相似文献

Two well-known questions in differential geometry are “Does every compact manifold of dimension greater than four admit an Einstein metric?” and “Does an Einstein metric of a negative scalar curvature exist on a sphere?” We demonstrate that these questions are related: For everyn≥5 the existence of metrics for which the deviation from being Einstein is arbitrarily small on every compact manifold of dimensionn (or even on every smooth homology sphere of dimensionn) implies the existence of metrics of negative Ricci curvature on the sphereS n for which the deviation from being Einstein is arbitrarily small. Furthermore, assuming either a version of the Palais-Smale condition or the plausible looking existence of an algorithm deciding when a given metric on a compact manifold is close to an Einstein metric, we show for anyn≥5 that: 1) If everyn-dimensional smooth homology sphere admits an Einstein metric thenS n admits infinitely many Einstein structures of volume one and of negative scalar curvature; 2) If every compactn-dimensional manifold admits an Einstein metric then every compactn-dimensional manifold admits infinitely many distinct Einstein structures of volume one and of negative scalar curvature. 相似文献

We introduce a randomized iterative fragmentation procedure for finite metric spaces, which is guaranteed to result in a polynomially large subset that is D-equivalent to an ultrametric, where D ∈ (2,∞) is a prescribed target distortion. Since this procedure works for D arbitrarily close to the nonlinear Dvoretzky phase transition at distortion 2, we thus obtain a much simpler probabilistic proof of the main result of [3], answering a question from [12], and yielding the best known bounds in the nonlinear Dvoretzky theorem. Our method utilizes a sequence of random scales at which a given metric space is fragmented. As in many previous randomized arguments in embedding theory, these scales are chosen irrespective of the geometry of the metric space in question. We show that our bounds are sharp if one utilizes such a “scale-oblivious” fragmentation procedure. 相似文献

In some applications a minimum cost transportation model arises where supplies are fixed while demands may simultaneously vary. In this paper we analyse the structure of such a model and propose several techniques to describe its behaviour. Our approach is founded on the concept of optimal region, i.e., the subset of demand vectors where a given basic tree is optimal. The proposed algorithm consists in different pivoting strategies designed to:
- 1.build up a minimal list of basic trees such that the associated optimal regions cover the set of feasible demand vectors;
- 2.analyse the effects of either opening a new supplier or closing an existing one;
- 3.suitably treat the dual degenerate case by building up a minimal representation of every maximal region where the optimal value is linear in the demand vector.

In cone uniform spaces X, using the concept of the D-family of cone pseudodistances, the distance between two not necessarily convex or compact sets A and B in X is defined, the concepts of cyclic and noncyclic set-valued dynamic systems of D-relatively quasi-asymptotic contractions T:A∪B→2A∪B are introduced and the best approximation and best proximity point theorems for such contractions are proved. Also conditions are given which guarantee that for each starting point each generalized sequence of iterations of these contractions (in particular, each dynamic process) converges and the limit is a best proximity point. Moreover, D-families are constructed, characterized and compared. The results are new for set-valued and single-valued dynamic systems in cone uniform, cone locally convex and cone metric spaces. Various examples illustrating ideas, methods, definitions and results are constructed. 相似文献

Considering a single dyadic orthonormal wavelet ψ in L 2(?), it is still an open problem whether the support of $\widehat{\psi}$ always contains a wavelet set. As far as we know, the only result in this direction is that if the Fourier support of a wavelet function is “small” then it is either a wavelet set or a union of two wavelet sets. Without assuming that a set S is the Fourier support of a wavelet, we obtain some necessary conditions and some sufficient conditions for a “small” set S to contain a wavelet set. The main results, which are in terms of the relationship between two explicitly constructed subsets A and B of S and two subsets T 2 and D 2 of S intersecting itself exactly twice translationally and dilationally respectively, are (1) if $A\cup B\not\subseteq T_{2}\cap D_{2}$ then S does not contain a wavelet set; and (2) if A∪B?T 2∩D 2 then every wavelet subset of S must be in S?(A∪B) and if S?(A∪B) satisfies a “weak” condition then there exists a wavelet subset of S?(A∪B). In particular, if the set S?(A∪B) is of the right size then it must be a wavelet set. 相似文献

This paper clears up to the following three conjectures:
- The conjecture of Ehle [1] on theA-acceptability of Padé approximations toe z , which is true;
- The conjecture of Nørsett [5] on the zeros of the “E-polynomial”, which is false;
- The conjecture of Daniel and Moore [2] on the highest attainable order of certainA-stable multistep methods, which is true, generalizing the well-known Theorem of Dahlquist.

Li and Yorke not only introduced the term “chaos” along with a mathematically rigorous definition of what they meant by it, but also gave a condition for chaos in scalar difference equations, their equally famous “period three implies chaos” result. Generalizations of the Li and Yorke definition of chaos to difference equations in ? n are reviewed here as well as higher dimensional conditions ensuring its existence, specifically the “snap-back repeller” condition of Marotto and its counterpart for saddle points. In addition, further generalizations to mappings in Banach spaces and complete metric spaces are considered. These will be illustrated with various simple examples including an application to chaotic dynamics on the metric space (? n , D) of fuzzy sets on the base space ? n . 相似文献

Steiner's Problem is the “Problem of shortest connectivity”, that means, given a finite set of points in a metric space (X,ρ), search for a network interconnecting these points with minimal length. This shortest network must be a tree and is called a Steiner Minimal Tree (SMT). It may contain vertices different from the points which are to be connected. Such points are called Steiner points. If we do not allow Steiner points, that means, we only connect certain pairs of the given points, we get a tree which is called a Minimum Spanning Tree (MST). Steiner's Problem is very hard as well in combinatorial as in computational sense, but, on the other hand, the determination of an MST is simple. Consequently, we are interested in the greatest lower bound for the ratio between the lengths of these both trees:which is called the Steiner ratio (of (X,ρ)). We look for estimates and exact values for the Steiner ratio in several discrete metric spaces. Particularly, we determine the Steiner ratio for spaces of words, and we estimate the Steiner ratio for specific graphs. 相似文献

The problem of constructing a spanning tree for a graph G = (V, E) with n vertices whose maximal degree is the smallest among all spanning trees of G is considered. This problem is easily shown to be NP-hard. In the Steiner version of this problem, along with the input graph, a set of distinguished vertices D V is given. A minimum-degree Steiner tree is a tree of minimum degree which spans at least the set D. Iterative polynomial time approximation algorithms for the problems are given. The algorithms compute trees whose maximal degree is at most Δ* + 1, where Δ* is the degree of some optimal tree for the respective problems. Unless P = NP, this is the best bound achievable in polynomial time. 相似文献

We investigate chip-firing with respect to open covers of discrete graphs and metric graphs. For the case of metric graphs we show that given an open cover and a sink q, stabilization of a divisor D is unique and that there is a distinguished configuration equivalent to D, which we call the critical configuration. Also, we show that given a double cover of the metric graph by stars, which is the continuous analogue of the sandpile model, the critical configurations are in bijection with reduced divisors. Passing to the discrete case, we interpret open covers of a graph as simplicial complexes on the vertex and observe that chip-firing with respect to a simplicial complex is equivalent to the model introduced by Paoletti [G. Paoletti. July 11 2007: Master in Physics at University of Milan, defending thesis “Abelian sandpile models and sampling of trees and forests”; supervisor: Prof. S. Caracciolo. http://pcteserver.mi.infn.it/caraccio/index.html]. We generalize this setup for directed graphs using weighted simplicial complexes on the vertex set and show that the fundamental results extend. In the undirected case we present a generalization of the Cori-Le Borgne algorithm for chip-firing models via open covers, giving an explicit bijection between the critical configurations and the spanning trees of a graph.(http://www.elsevier.com/locate/endm) 相似文献

Analysis of the errors in two Old Babylonian “algebraic” problems shows
- •that the computations were performed on a device where additive contributions were no longer identifiable once they had entered the computation;
- •that this device must have been some kind of counting board or abacus where numbers were represented as collections of calculi;
- •that units and tens were represented in distinct ways, perhaps by means of different calculi.
- •Additive Beiträge waren nach ihrer Eintragung in die Rechnung nicht länger identifizierbar.
- •Das Gerät war eine Art Rechenbrett, auf welchem Zahlen als Haufen von Rechensteinen erschienen.
- •Einer und Zehner wurden in verschiedener Weise, evtl. mittels verschiedener Rechensteine repräsentiert.

In my talk, I will present some works done in the nineties on Laplacians on graphs: from eigenvalue problems to inverse problem for resistor networks. I will focus on the motivations and the main results as well as on the main ideas:
- •A differential topology point of view on the minor relation: a nice stratification associated to a finite graph Γ whose strata are associated to the minors of Γ
- •“Discrete” (graphs) versus “continuous” (Riemannian manifolds)
- •Stability of spectra with respect to singular limits: a finite dimensional theory of operators with domains (Von Neumann theory).

In the group Steiner problem we are given an edge-weighted graph G=(V,E,w) and m subsets of vertices . Each subset gi is called a group and the vertices in ?igi are called terminals. It is required to find a minimum weight tree that contains at least one terminal from every group.We present a poly-logarithmic ratio approximation for this problem when the input graph is a tree. Our algorithm is a recursive greedy algorithm adapted from the greedy algorithm for the directed Steiner tree problem [Approximating the weight of shallow Steiner trees, Discrete Appl. Math. 93 (1999) 265-285, Approximation algorithms for directed Steiner problems, J. Algorithms 33 (1999) 73-91]. This is in contrast to earlier algorithms that are based on rounding a linear programming based relaxation for the problem [A polylogarithmic approximation algorithm for the Group Steiner tree problem, J. Algorithms 37 (2000) 66-84, preliminary version in Proceedings of SODA, 1998 pp. 253-259, On directed Steiner trees, Proceedings of SODA, 2002, pp. 59-63]. We answer in positive a question posed in [A polylogarithmic approximation algorithm for the Group Steiner tree problem, J. Algorithms 37 (2000) 66-84, preliminary version in Proceedings of SODA, 1998 pp. 253-259] on whether there exist good approximation algorithms for the group Steiner problem that are not based on rounding linear programs. For every fixed constant ε>0, our algorithm gives an approximation in polynomial time. Approximation algorithms for trees can be extended to arbitrary undirected graphs by probabilistically approximating the graph by a tree. This results in an additional multiplicative factor of in the approximation ratio, where |V| is the number of vertices in the graph. The approximation ratio of our algorithm on trees is slightly worse than the ratio of O(log(maxi|gi|)·logm) provided by the LP based approaches. 相似文献

Stable n-pointed trees arise in a natural way if one tries to find moduli for totally degenerate curves: Let C be a totally degenerate stable curve of genus g ≥ 2 over a field k. This means that C is a connected projective curve of arithmetic genus g satisfyingo
- (a) every irreducible component of C is a rational curve over κ.
- (b) every singular point of C is a κ-rational ordinary double point.
- (c) every nonsingular component L of C meets C−L in at least three points. It is always possible to find g singular points P1,..., Pg on C such that the blow up C of C at P1,..., Pg is a connected projective curve with the following properties:o
- (i) every irreducible component of C is isomorphic to Pk1
- (ii) the components of C intersect in ordinary κ-rational double points
- (iii) the intersection graph of C is a tree.
