Abstract

We obtain sharp bounds for the number of n--cycles in a finite graph as a function of the number of edges, and prove that the complete graph is optimal in more ways than could be imagined. We prove sharp estimates on both the sum of k-th powers of the coordinates and the Lk norm subject to the constraints that the sum of squares of the coordinates is fixed, and that the sum of the coordinates vanishes.
