Relativistic treatment of the spin-zero particles subject to the second Poschl-Teller-like potential

The three-dimensional Klein-Gordon equation is solved for the case of equal vector and scalar second Poschl-Teller potential by proper approximation of the centrifugal term within the framework of the asymptotic iteration method. Energy eigenvalues and the corresponding wave function are obtained analytically. Eigenvalues are computed numerically for some values of n and It is found that the results are in good agreement with the findings of other methods for short-range potential.     

On bipartite graphs with small number of laplacian eigenvalues greater than two and three

All connected bipartite graphs with exactly two Laplacian eigenvalues greater than two are determined. Besides, all connected bipartite graphs with exactly one Laplacian eigenvalue greater than three are determined.     

On the spectral radius of tricyclic graphs with a fixed diameter

A tricyclic graph is a connected graph with n vertices and n + 2 edges. In this article, we determine graphs with the largest spectral radius among the n-vertex tricyclic graphs with given diameter d.     

Fastest mixing Markov chain problem for the union of two cliques

A symmetric, random walk on a graph G can be defined by prescribing weights to the edges in such a way that for each vertex the sum of the weights of the edges incident to the vertex is at most one. The fastest mixing, Markov chain (FMMC) problem for G is to determine the weighting that yields the fastest mixing random walk. We solve the FMMC problem in the case that G is the union of two complete graphs.     

Upper (lower) bounds of the eigenvalues,spread and the open problems for the real symmetric interval matrices

This work is concerned with exploring the upper bounds and lower bounds of the eigenvalues of real symmetric matrices of order n whose entries are in a given interval. It gives the maximum and minimum of the eigenvalues and the upper bounds of spread of real symmetric interval matrices in all cases. It also gives the answers of the open problems for the maximum and minimum of the eigenvalues of real symmetric interval matrices. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Asymptotic formulations of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions for a boundary value problem

In this work, a discontinuous boundary‐value problem with retarded argument that contains a spectral parameter in the transmission conditions at the point of discontinuity is investigated. We obtained asymptotic formulas for the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

There is no (95, 40, 12, 20) strongly regular graph

We show that there is no (95, 40, 12, 20) strongly regular graph and, consequently, there is no (96, 45, 24, 18) strongly regular graph, no nontrivial regular two‐graph on 96 vertices, and no partial geometry pg(4, 9, 2). The main idea of the result is based on the star complement technique and requires a moderate amount of computation.     

Half-Linear Eigenvalue Problems

We consider the eigenvalue problem for t ? [0, b], where aⁿ = |a|ⁿ sgna, a ? ?, λ ? ?, the constants μ, v are real such that 0 ≤ μ < n and derive asymptotic estimates for solutions of the differential equation in the definite case q(t)> 0 which corresponds to the well-known WKB-approximation in the linear case n = 1, μ = 0. In the second part we investigate the asymptotic distribution of the eigenvalues in the general case of two -point boundary conditions and refine these results for the so called separated boundary conditions.
