Let P be a polygon whose vertices have been colored (labeled) cyclically with the numbers 1, 2, . . . , c. Motivated by conjectures of Propp, we are led to consider partitions of ...
Let be a triangle-free distance-regular graph with diameter d 3, valency k 3 and intersection number a2 = 0. Assume has an eigenvalue with multiplicity k. We show that if for ...
Let Sn denote the symmetric group on [n] = {1, . . . , n}. A family I ⊆ Sn is intersecting if any two elements of I have at least one common entry. It is known that the only int...
An induced subgraph is called homogeneous if it is either a clique or an independent set. Let hom(G) denote the size of the largest homogeneous subgraph of a graph G. In this shor...
Consider random regular graphs of order n and degree d = d(n) 3. Let g = g(n) 3 satisfy (d-1)2g-1 = o(n). Then the number of cycles of lengths up to g have a distribution simila...
