Let P(G,t) and F(G,t) denote the chromatic and flow polynomials of a graph G. D.R. Woodall has shown that, if G is a plane triangulation, then the only zeros of P(G,t) in (−∞...
We define a multivariate polynomial that generalizes in a unified way the twovariable interlace polynomial defined by Arratia, Bollob´as and Sorkin on the one hand, and a one-...
Abstract. The notion of graph polynomials definable in Monadic Second Order Logic, MSOL, was introduced in [Mak04]. It was shown that the Tutte polynomial and its generalization, a...
The question of whether there is a logic that captures polynomial time was formulated by Yuri Gurevich in 1988. It is still wide open and regarded as one of the main open problems...
