平面图的强边染色

图$G$的强边染色是在正常边染色的基础上, 要求距离不超过$2$的任意两条边染不同的颜色, 强边染色所用颜色的最小整数称为图$G$的强边色数。本文首先给出极小反例的构型, 然后通过权转移法, 证明了$g(G)\geq5$, $\Delta(G)\geq6$且$5$-圈不相交的平面图的强边色数至多是$4\Delta(G)-1$。     

k圈图的最大Laplace分离度

设$ G $是一个$ n $阶$ k $圈图, $ k $圈图为边数等于顶点数加$ k-1 $的简单连通图。$ \mu_{1}(G) $、$ \mu_{2}(G) $分别记为图$ G $的Laplace矩阵的最大特征值和次大特征值, 图$ G $的Laplace分离度定义为$ S_{L}(G)=\mu_{1}(G)-\mu_{2}(G) $。本文研究了给定阶数的$ k $圈图的最大Laplace分离度, 并刻画了相应的极图, 其结果推广了已有当$ k=1, 2, 3 $时的结论。     

Pseudo-orthogonality for graph 1-Laplacian eigenvectors and applications to higher Cheeger constants and data clustering

The data clustering problem consists in dividing a data set into prescribed groups of homogeneous data. This is an NP-hard problem that can be relaxed in the spectral graph theory, where the optimal cuts of a graph are related to the eigenvalues of graph 1-Laplacian. In this paper, we first give new notations to describe the paths, among critical eigenvectors of the graph 1-Laplacian, realizing sets with prescribed genus. We introduce the pseudo-orthogonality to characterize m₃(G), a special eigenvalue for the graph 1-Laplacian. Furthermore, we use it to give an upper bound for the third graph Cheeger constant h₃(G), that is, h₃(G) 6 m₃(G). This is a first step for proving that the k-th Cheeger constant is the minimum of the 1-Laplacian Raylegh quotient among vectors that are pseudo-orthogonal to the vectors realizing the previous k - 1 Cheeger constants. Eventually, we apply these results to give a method and a numerical algorithm to compute m₃(G), based on a generalized inverse power method.     

Chaos and Shadowing Lemma for Autonomous Systems of Infinite Dimensions

For finite-dimensional maps and periodic systems, Palmer rigorously proved Smale horseshoe theorem using shadowing lemma in 1988 [20]. For infinite-dimensional maps and periodic systems, such a proof was completed by Steinlein and Walther in 1990 [30], and Henry in 1994 [9]. For finite-dimensional autonomous systems, such a proof was accomplished by Palmer in 1996 [17]. For infinite-dimensional autonomous systems, the current article offers such a proof. First we prove an Inclination Lemma to set up a coordinate system around a pseudo-orbit. Then we utilize graph transform and the concept of persistence of invariant manifold, to prove the existence of a shadowing orbit.     

Steering forces on undriven tractor wheel

The steering forces on an undriven, angled wheel mounting a 6-16 8PR tire were measured on a wheel test carriage at zero camber angle and at 1.5 km/h forward speed in a soil bin with sandy clay loam soil. The lateral force developed was found to be a function of slip angle, normal load, and inflation pressure for a particular soil condition. An exponential relationship could estimate the coefficient of lateral force of the 6-16 tire. The coefficients of this equation were found to be linearly related to inflation pressure. Rolling resistance of the wheel tested was found to be a function of slip angle, normal load, and inflation pressure for the soil condition tested. A linear relationship existed between the rolling resistance and slip angle, where the coefficients were found to be a function of inflation pressure and normal load. The generalized equations developed in the present study for estimating coefficients of lateral force and rolling resistance by taking both the tire and operating parameters into account, were found to be reasonably good by looking at the high coefficient of determination between experimental and estimated values.     

3-γ-临界图G中关于i(G)=γ(G)的一个充分条件

如果图G满足γ（G）＝k且对图G中任两个相邻的点x,y有γ（G＋xy)=k-1,则称图G为k-γ-临界图,如果图G满足γ（G）＝k且对图G中任何距离为d的两点x,y有γ（G＋xy)=k-1,则称图G为k-(γ,d)－临界图。Sumner和Blitch猜想在3－γ－临界图中有γ（G）＝i(G).Oellermann和Swart猜想3－（γ,2）－临界图中有γ（G）＝i(G),这篇文章中我们提出3－γ－临界图中使γ（G）＝i(G)的一个充分条件。     

Petersen图的Hamilton性和边色数

对简单图G(V,E),定义图G的关联图I(G)为V(I(G))={(ve)|v∈V(G)且e∈E(G)和v与e关联},E(I(G))={(ue,vf)Iu=v或e=f或uv=e或uv=f}.本文证明了Petersen图可被分解为边不交的Hamilton-圈和一个1-因子的并.     

路与完全图的笛卡尔积图和广义图K(n,m)的关联色数

Richrd A.Brualdi和J.Quinn Massey在[1]中引入了图的关联着色概念,并且提出了关联着色猜想,即每一个图G都可以用△(G)+2种色正常关联着色.B.Guiduli[2]说明关联着色的概念是I.Algor和N.Alon[3]提出的有向星荫度的一个特殊情况,并证实[1]的关联着色猜想是错的,给出图G的关联色数的一个新的上界是△(G)+O(Log(△G)).[4]确定了某些特殊图类的关联色数.本文给出了路和完全图的笛卡尔积图的关联色数,而且利用此结果又确定了完全图Kn的广义图K(n,m)的关联色数.
