Weighted forms of Euler's theorem
In answer to a question of Andrews about finding combinatorial proofs of two identities in Ramanujan’s “lost” notebook, we obtain weighted forms of Euler’s theorem on part...

Shelling the coset poset
It is shown that the coset lattice of a finite group has shellable order complex if and only if the group is complemented. Furthermore, the coset lattice is shown to have a Cohen...

Exponentially many 5-list-colorings of planar graphs
We prove that every planar graph with n vertices has at least 2n/9 distinct list-colorings provided every vertex has at least five available colors. © 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rig...

The Bergman complex of a matroid and phylogenetic trees
We study the Bergman complex B(M) of a matroid M: a polyhedral complex which arises in algebraic geometry, but which we describe purely combinatorially. We prove that a natural su...

Approximating clique-width and branch-width
We construct a polynomial-time algorithm to approximate the branch-width of certain symmetric submodular functions, and give two applications. The first is to graph "clique-wi...
