Let $\tau(G)$ and $\kappa'(G)$ denote the edge-connectivity and the spanning tree packing number of a graph $G$, respectively. Proving a conjecture initiated by Cioaba and Wong, Liu et al. in 2014 showed that for any simple graph $G$ with…

I show how one can use lattice methods to calculate various continuum properties of SU(N) gauge theories; in part to explore old ideas that N=3 might be close to N=infinity. I describe calculations of the low-lying `glueball' mass spectrum,…

We investigate the low energy continuum limit theory for electrons in a graphene sheet under strain. We use the quantum field theory in curved spaces to analyze the effect of the system deformations into an effective gauge field. We study…

Let $\mathcal{D}_{n,\tau}$ be the set of all simple connected graphs of order $n$ and dissociation number $\tau.$ In this paper, we study the minimum size and the minimum spectral radius of graphs in $\mathcal{D}_{n,\tau}$ in connection…

The bipartite independence number of a graph $G$, denoted by $\widetilde{\alpha}(G)$, is defined as the smallest integer $q$ for which there exist positive integers $s$ and $t$ with $s + t = q + 1$, such that for any two disjoint subsets…

In this paper, we show that if $k\geq (\nu+2)/4$, where $\nu$ denotes the order of a graph, a non-bipartite graph $G$ is $k$-extendable if and only if it is $2k$-factor-critical. If $k\geq (\nu-3)/4$, a graph $G$ is $k\ 1/2$-extendable if…

We present a novel nonperturbative approach for calculating the form factors of the quark-gluon vertex, in a general covariant gauge. The key ingredient of this method is the exact all-order relation connecting the conventional quark-gluon…

A strong coupling expansion of the SU(2) Yang-Mills quantum Hamiltonian is carried out in the form of an expansion in the number of spatial derivatives, using the symmetric gauge \epsilon_{ijk} A_{jk}=0. Introducing an infinite lattice with…

We develop a gluing theorem for non-degenerate $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$-harmonic $1$-forms on compact manifolds, in which non-degenerate $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$-harmonic $1$-forms on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ are glued to the regular zeros of a non-degenerate…

In a previous paper we have constructed an invariant of four-dimensional manifolds with boundary in the form of an element in the stable homotopy group of the Seiberg-Witten Floer spectrum of the boundary. Here we prove that when one glues…

In this paper we study random graphs with independent and identically distributed degrees of which the tail of the distribution function is regularly varying with exponent $\tau\in (2,3)$. The number of edges between two arbitrary nodes,…

We evaluate non factorizable $O(\alpha\alpha_s)$ corrections to the process $Z\to b\bar{b}$ due to the virtual t-quark. All two-loop vertex diagrams with $W$'s and charged ghosts $\Phi$'s are included. They are evaluated in the large…

We demonstrate that in the double-radiative decays of heavy-light QED and QCD atoms, \mu^{+} e^{-} \to \gamma\gamma and \bar{B}^{0}_{s} \to \gamma\gamma, there is a contribution coming from operators that vanish on the free-quark mass…

It is well-known that Chv\'{a}tal and Erd\H{o}s stated that any graph of order at least three whose independence number is no greater than its connectivity is Hamiltonian; that any graph whose independence number is no greater than its…

A recent result in [2] on the non-existence of Gauss-Lobatto cubature rules on the triangle is strengthened by establishing a lower bound for the number of nodes of such rules. A method of constructing Lobatto type cubature rules on the…

The fermion propagator in an arbitrary covariant gauge can be obtained from the Landau gauge result via a Landau-Khalatnikov-Fradkin transformation. This transformation can be written in a practically useful form in both configuration and…

We show that for any constant $\mu>0$ and $k\ge 3$, there exists $\alpha>0$ such that the following holds for sufficiently large $n \in \mathbb{N}$. If $G=(V_{1},\ldots,V_{k},E)$ is a spanning subgraph of the $n$-blow-up of $K_{k}$ with…

We present a theory of electronic properties of gated triangular graphene quantum dots with zigzag edges as a function of size and carrier density. We focus on electronic correlations, spin and geometrical effects using a combination of…

In this work we use a mapping technique to derive in the context of a constituent gluon model an effective Hamiltonian that involves explicit gluon degrees of freedom. We study glueballs with two gluons using the Fock-Tani formalism. In the…
