Global Optimization: On Pathlengths in Min-Max Graphs

Let f be a smooth nondegenerate real valued function on a finite dimensional, compact and connected Riemannian manifold. The bipartite min-max graph is defined as follows. Its nodes are formed by the set of local minima and the set of local maxima. Two nodes (a local minimum and a local maximum) are connected in by means of an edge if some trajectory of the corresponding gradient flow connects them. Given a natural number k, we construct a function f such that the length of the shortest path in between two specific local minima exceeds k. The latter construction is independent of the underlying Riemannian metric.     

图的边覆盖染色中的分类问题(英文)

设 G是一个图 ,其边集是 E( G) ,E( G)的一个子集 S称为 G的一个边覆盖 ,若 G的每一点都是 S中一条边的端点 .G的一个 (正常 )边覆盖染色是对 G的边进行染色 ,使得每一色组都是 G的一个边覆盖 ,使 G有 (正常 )边覆盖染色所需最多颜色数 ,称为 G的边覆盖色数 ,用χ′c( G)表示 .已知的结果是对于任意简单图 G,都有 δ- 1≤ χ′c( G)≤ δ,δ是 G的最小度 .若 χ′c( G) =δ,则称 G是 CI类的 ;否则称为 CII类的 .本文主要研究了平面图及平衡的完全 r分图的分类问题     

无K1,r图中的哈密顿圈（英文）

本文借助对图的本质独立集和图的部分平方图的独立集的研究，对于K1,r图中哈密顿圈的存在性给出了八个充分条件。我们将利用T－插点技术对这八个充分条件给出统一的证明，本文的结果从本质上改进了C－Q.Zhang于1988年利用次形条件给出的k-连通无爪图是哈密顿图的次型充分条件，同时。G.Chen和R.H.Schelp在1995年利用次型条件给出的关于k-连通无K1，4图是哈密顿图的充分条件也被我们的结果改进并推广到无K1,r图。

LLT polynomials,chromatic quasisymmetric functions and graphs with cycles

We use a Dyck path model for unit-interval graphs to study the chromatic quasisymmetric functions introduced by Shareshian and Wachs, as well as unicellular LLT polynomials, revealing some parallel structure and phenomena regarding their $\mathrm{e}$-positivity.The Dyck path model is also extended to circular arc digraphs to obtain larger families of polynomials, giving a new extension of LLT polynomials. Carrying over a lot of the non-circular combinatorics, we prove several statements regarding the $\mathrm{e}$-coefficients of chromatic quasisymmetric functions and LLT polynomials, including a natural combinatorial interpretation for the $\mathrm{e}$-coefficients for the line graph and the cycle graph for both families. We believe that certain $\mathrm{e}$-positivity conjectures hold in all these families above.Furthermore, beyond the chromatic analogy, we study vertical-strip LLT polynomials, which are modified Hall–Littlewood polynomials.     

Maximum matchings in regular graphs

It was conjectured by Mkrtchyan, Petrosyan and Vardanyan that every graph $G$ with $\Delta \left(G\right)?\delta \left(G\right)\le 1$ has a maximum matching $M$ such that any two $M$-unsaturated vertices do not share a neighbor. The results obtained in Mkrtchyan et al. (2010), Petrosyan (2014) and Picouleau (2010) leave the conjecture unknown only for $k$-regular graphs with $4\le k\le 6$. All counterexamples for $k$-regular graphs $(k\ge 7)$ given in Petrosyan (2014) have multiple edges. In this paper, we confirm the conjecture for all $k$-regular simple graphs and also $k$-regular multigraphs with $k\le 4$.
