Denseness of volatile and nonvolatile sequences of functions

In a recent paper by Jonasson and Steif, definitions to describe the volatility of sequences of Boolean functions, $f_n:{\{?1,1\}}^n\to \{?1,1\}$ were introduced. We continue their study of how these definitions relate to noise stability and noise sensitivity. Our main results are that the set of volatile sequences of Boolean functions is a natural way “dense” in the set of all sequences of Boolean functions, and that the set of non-volatile Boolean sequences is not “dense” in the set of noise stable sequences of Boolean functions.     

On trees with real-rooted independence polynomial

The independence polynomial of a graph $G$ is

$I(G,x)=\sum _{k\ge 0}{i}_k\left(G\right)x^k,$

where $i_k\left(G\right)$ denotes the number of independent sets of $G$ of size $k$ (note that $i_0\left(G\right)=1$). In this paper we show a new method to prove real-rootedness of the independence polynomials of certain families of trees.In particular we will give a new proof of the real-rootedness of the independence polynomials of centipedes (Zhu’s theorem), caterpillars (Wang and Zhu’s theorem), and we will prove a conjecture of Galvin and Hilyard about the real-rootedness of the independence polynomial of the so-called Fibonacci trees.     

A scaling analysis of a star network with logarithmic weights

The paper investigates the properties of a class of resource allocation algorithms for communication networks: if a node of this network has $L$ requests to transmit and is idle, it tries to access the channel at a rate proportional to $log(1+L)$. A stochastic model of such an algorithm is investigated in the case of the star network, in which $J$ nodes can transmit simultaneously, but interfere with a central node 0 in such a way that node 0 cannot transmit while one of the other nodes does. One studies the impact of the log policy on these $J+1$ interacting communication nodes. A fluid scaling analysis of the network is derived with the scaling parameter $N$ being the norm of the initial state. It is shown that the asymptotic fluid behavior of the system is a consequence of the evolution of the state of the network on a specific time scale $(N^t,t\in (0,1))$. The main result is that, on this time scale and under appropriate conditions, the state of a node with index $j\ge 1$ is of the order of $N^{a_j\left(t\right)}$, with $0\le a_j\left(t\right)<1$, where $t?a_j\left(t\right)$ is a piecewise linear function. Convergence results on the fluid time scale and a stability property are derived as a consequence of this study.     

Problems on matchings and independent sets of a graph

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph. For $X?V\left(G\right)$, the difference of $X$, $d\left(X\right)?\left|X\right|?\left|N\left(X\right)\right|$ where $N\left(X\right)$ is the neighborhood of $X$ and $max\{d\left(X\right):X?V\left(G\right)\}$ is called the critical difference of $G$. $X$ is called a critical set if $d\left(X\right)$ equals the critical difference and $\ker \left(G\right)$ is the intersection of all critical sets. $\mathrm{diadem}\left(G\right)$ is the union of all critical independent sets. An independent set $S$ is an inclusion minimal set with$d\left(S\right)>0$ if no proper subset of $S$ has positive difference.A graph $G$ is called a König–Egerváry graph if the sum of its independence number $\alpha \left(G\right)$ and matching number $\mu \left(G\right)$ equals $\left|V\left(G\right)\right|$.In this paper, we prove a conjecture which states that for any graph the number of inclusion minimal independent set $S$ with $d\left(S\right)>0$ is at least the critical difference of the graph.We also give a new short proof of the inequality $\left|\ker \left(G\right)\right|+\left|\mathrm{diadem}\left(G\right)\right|\le 2\alpha \left(G\right)$.A characterization of unicyclic non-König–Egerváry graphs is also presented and a conjecture which states that for such a graph $G$, the critical difference equals $\alpha \left(G\right)?\mu \left(G\right)$, is proved.We also make an observation about $\ker \left(G\right)$ using Edmonds–Gallai Structure Theorem as a concluding remark.     

Low minor faces in 3-polytopes

It is trivial that every 3-polytope has a face of degree at most 5, called minor. The height $h\left(f\right)$ of a face $f$ is the maximum degree of the vertices incident with $f$. It follows from the partial double $n$-pyramids that $h\left(f\right)$ can be arbitrarily large for each $f$ if a 3-polytope is allowed to have faces of types $(4,4,\infty )$ or $(3,3,3,\infty )$.In 1996, M. Horňák and S. Jendrol’ proved that every 3-polytope without faces of types $(4,4,\infty )$ and$(3,3,3,\infty )$ has a minor face of height at most 39 and constructed such a 3-polytope satisfying $h\left(f\right)\ge 30$ for all minor faces $f$.The purpose of this paper is to prove that every 3-polytope without faces of types $(4,4,\infty )$ and$(3,3,3,\infty )$ has a minor face of height at most 30, which bound is tight due to the Horňák–Jendrol’ construction.     

Detection of multivariate outliers with location slippage or scale inflation in left orthogonally invariant or elliptically contoured distributions

This paper is concerned with two kinds of multiple outlier problems in multivariate regression. One is a multiple location-slippage problem and the other is a multiple scale-inflation problem. A multi-decision rule is proposed. Its optimality is shown for the first problem in a class of left orthogonally invariant distributions and is also shown for the second problem in a class of elliptically contoured distributions. Thus the decision rule is robust against departures from normality. Further the null robustness of the decision statistic which the rule is based on is pointed out in each problem.     

A sufficient condition for DP-4-colorability

DP-coloring of a simple graph is a generalization of list coloring, and also a generalization of signed coloring of signed graphs. It is known that for each $k\in \{3,4,5,6\}$, every planar graph without $C_k$ is 4-choosable. Furthermore, Jin et al. (2016) showed that for each $k\in \{3,4,5,6\}$, every signed planar graph without $C_k$ is signed 4-choosable. In this paper, we show that for each $k\in \{3,4,5,6\}$, every planar graph without $C_k$ is 4-DP-colorable, which is an extension of the above results.     

Automorphism groups of Cayley graphs generated by block transpositions and regular Cayley maps

This paper deals with the Cayley graph $\mathrm{Cay}({\mathrm{Sym}}_n,T_n)$, where the generating set consists of all block transpositions. A motivation for the study of these particular Cayley graphs comes from current research in Bioinformatics. As the main result, we prove that $\text{Aut}\left(\mathrm{Cay}({\mathrm{Sym}}_n,T_n)\right)$ is the product of the left translation group and a dihedral group ${\mathsf{D}}_{n+1}$ of order $2(n+1)$. The proof uses several properties of the subgraph $\Gamma$ of $\mathrm{Cay}({\mathrm{Sym}}_n,T_n)$ induced by the set $T_n$. In particular, $\Gamma$ is a $2(n?2)$-regular graph whose automorphism group is ${\mathsf{D}}_{n+1},$ $\Gamma$ has as many as $n+1$ maximal cliques of size $2$, and its subgraph $\Gamma \left(V\right)$ whose vertices are those in these cliques is a 3-regular, Hamiltonian, and vertex-transitive graph. A relation of the unique cyclic subgroup of ${\mathsf{D}}_{n+1}$ of order $n+1$ with regular Cayley maps on ${\text{Sym}}_n$ is also discussed. It is shown that the product of the left translation group and the latter group can be obtained as the automorphism group of a non-$t$-balanced regular Cayley map on ${\text{Sym}}_n$.     

On purely discontinuous additive functionals of subordinate Brownian motions

Let $A_t={\sum }_{s\le t}F(X_{s?},X_s)$ be a purely discontinuous additive functional of a subordinate Brownian motion $X=(X_t,{\mathbb{P}}_x)$. We give a sufficient condition on the non-negative function $F$ that guarantees that finiteness of $A_{\infty }$ implies finiteness of its expectation. This result is then applied to study the relative entropy of ${\mathbb{P}}_x$ and the probability measure induced by a purely discontinuous Girsanov transform of the process $X$. We prove these results under the weak global scaling condition on the Laplace exponent of the underlying subordinator.     

A sharp bound on the expected number of upcrossings of an L2-bounded Martingale

For a martingale $M$ starting at $x$ with final variance ${\sigma }^2$, and an interval $(a,b)$, let $\Delta =\frac{b?a}{\sigma }$ be the normalized length of the interval and let $\delta =\frac{|x?a|}{\sigma }$ be the normalized distance from the initial point to the lower endpoint of the interval. The expected number of upcrossings of $(a,b)$ by $M$ is at most $\frac{\sqrt{1+{\delta }^2}?\delta }{2\Delta }$ if ${\Delta }^2\le 1+{\delta }^2$ and at most $\frac{1}{1+{(\Delta +\delta )}^2}$ otherwise. Both bounds are sharp, attained by Standard Brownian Motion stopped at appropriate stopping times. Both bounds also attain the Doob upper bound on the expected number of upcrossings of $(a,b)$ for submartingales with the corresponding final distribution. Each of these two bounds is at most $\frac{\sigma }{2(b?a)}$, with equality in the first bound for $\delta =0$. The upper bound $\frac{\sigma }{2}$ on the length covered by $M$ during upcrossings of an interval restricts the possible variability of a martingale in terms of its final variance. This is in the same spirit as the Dubins & Schwarz sharp upper bound $\sigma$ on the expected maximum of $M$ above $x$, the Dubins & Schwarz sharp upper bound $\sigma \sqrt{2}$ on the expected maximal distance of $M$ from $x$, and the Dubins, Gilat & Meilijson sharp upper bound $\sigma \sqrt{3}$ on the expected diameter of $M$.     

Groups of prime degree and the Bateman–Horn Conjecture

As a consequence of the classification of finite simple groups, the classification of permutation groups of prime degree is complete, apart from the question of when the natural degree $(q^n-1)/(q-1)$ of ${\mathrm{PSL}}_n\left(q\right)$ is prime. We present heuristic arguments and computational evidence based on the Bateman–Horn Conjecture to support a conjecture that for each prime $n\ge 3$ there are infinitely many primes of this form, even if one restricts to prime values of $q$. Similar arguments and results apply to the parameters of the simple groups ${\mathrm{PSL}}_n\left(q\right)$, ${\mathrm{PSU}}_n\left(q\right)$ and ${\mathrm{PSp}}_{2n}\left(q\right)$ which arise in the work of Dixon and Zalesskii on linear groups of prime degree.

Frames arising from irreducible solvable actions I

In this work, we provide a unified method for the construction of reproducing systems arising from unitary irreducible representations of some solvable Lie groups. In contrast to other well-known techniques such as the coorbit theory, the generalized coorbit theory and other discretization schemes, we make no assumption on the integrability or square-integrability of the representations of interest. Moreover, our scheme produces explicit constructions of frames with precise frame bounds. As an illustration of the scope of our results, we highlight that a large class of representations which naturally occur in wavelet theory and time–frequency analysis is handled by our scheme. For example, the affine group, the generalized Heisenberg groups, the shearlet groups, solvable extensions of vector groups and various solvable extensions of non-commutative nilpotent Lie groups are a few examples of groups whose irreducible representations are handled by our method. The class of representations studied in this work is described as follows. Let G be a simply connected, connected, completely solvable Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{p}+\mathfrak{m}$. Next, let π be an infinite-dimensional unitary irreducible representation of G obtained by inducing a character from a closed normal subgroup $P=\exp ?\mathfrak{p}$ of G. Additionally, we assume that $G=P?M$, $M=\exp ?\mathfrak{m}$ is a closed subgroup of G, $d{\mu }_M$ is a fixed Haar measure on the solvable Lie group M and there exists a linear functional $\lambda \in {\mathfrak{p}}^{?}$ such that the representation $\pi ={\pi }_{\lambda }={\mathrm{ind}}_P^G\left({\chi }_{\lambda }\right)$ is realized as acting in $L^2(M,d{\mu }_M)$. Making no assumption on the integrability of ${\pi }_{\lambda }$, we describe explicitly a discrete subset Γ of G and a vector $\mathbf{f}\in L^2(M,d{\mu }_M)$ such that ${\pi }_{\lambda }\left(\mathrm{\Gamma }\right)\mathbf{f}$ is a tight frame for $L^2(M,d{\mu }_M)$. We also construct compactly supported smooth functions s and discrete subsets $\mathrm{\Gamma }?G$ such that ${\pi }_{\lambda }\left(\mathrm{\Gamma }\right)\mathbf{s}$ is a frame for $L^2(M,d{\mu }_M)$.     

Bijections between generalized Catalan families of types A and C

Motivated by the relation ${\mathsf{N}}^m\left(C_n\right)=(mn+1){\mathsf{N}}^m\left(A_{n?1}\right)$, holding for the $m$-generalized Catalan numbers of type $A$ and $C$, the connection between dominant regions of the $m$-Shi arrangement of type $A_{n?1}$ and $C_n$ is investigated. More precisely, it is explicitly shown how $mn+1$ copies of the set of dominant regions of the $m$-Shi arrangement of type $A_{n?1}$, biject onto the set of type $C_n$ such regions. This is achieved by exploiting two different viewpoints of the representative alcove of each region: the Shi tableau and the abacus diagram. In the same line of thought, a bijection between $mn+1$ copies of the set of $m$-Dyck paths of height $n$ and the set of $N?E$ lattice paths inside an $n\times mn$ rectangle is provided.
