Flip Graph

The flip graph is the graph whose vertices correspond to non-isomorphic combinatorial triangulations and whose edges connect pairs of triangulations that can be obtained from one another by flipping a single edge. In this note we show that the diameter of the flip graph is at least $\frac{7n}{3} + \Theta(1)$, improving upon the previous $2n + \Theta(1)$ lower bound.

The Largest Eigenvalue

AbstractWe offer a new method for proving that the maxima eigenvalue of the normalized graph Laplacian of a graph with n vertices is at least $$\frac{n+1}{n-1}$$ n + 1 n - 1 provided the graph is not complete and that equality is attained if and only if the complement graph is a single edge or a complete bipartite graph with both parts of size $$\frac{n-1}{2}$$ n - 1 2 . With the same method, we also prove a new lower bound to the largest eigenvalue in terms of the minimum vertex degree, provided this is at most $$\frac{n-1}{2}$$ n - 1 2 .

Sharp Lower Bound

Solutions x(t) of the Lipschitz equation x = f(x) with an arbitrary vector norm are considered. It is proved that the sharp lower bound for the distances between successive extremums of xk(t) equals π/L where L is the Lipschitz constant. For non-constant periodic solutions, the lower bound for the periods is 2π/L. These estimates are achieved for norms that are invariant with respect to permutation of the indices.

Crossing Number

The best lower bound known on the crossing number of the complete bipartite graph is : $$cr(K_{m,n}) \geq (1/5)(m)(m-1)\lfloor n/2 \rfloor \lfloor(n-1)/2\rfloor$$ In this paper we prove that: $$cr(K_{m,n}) \geq (1/5)m(m-1)\lfloor n/2 \rfloor \lfloor (n-1)/2 \rfloor + 9.9 \times 10^{-6} m^2n^2$$ for sufficiently large $m$ and $n$.
