We establish that every $K$-quasiconformal mapping $w$ of the unit ball $\IB$ onto a $C^2$-Jordan domain $\Omega$ is H\"older continuous with constant $\alpha= 2-\frac{n}{p}$, provided that its weak Laplacean $\Delta w$ is in $ L^p(\IB)$…

We obtain an operator algebraic characterization for when we can continuously extend the shift map from a standard countable Markov shift $\Sigma_A$ to its respective generalized countable Markov shift $X_A$ (a compactification of…

We prove that the ribbon graph polynomial of a graph embedded in an orientable surface is irreducible if and only if the embedded graph is neither the disjoint union nor the join of embedded graphs. This result is analogous to the fact that…

A graph is $(c_1, c_2, ..., c_k)$-colorable if the vertex set can be partitioned into $k$ sets $V_1,V_2, ..., V_k$, such that for every $i: 1\leq i\leq k$ the subgraph $G[V_i]$ has maximum degree at most $c_i$. We show that every planar…

In this note we give an upper bound on the Hausdorff dimension of removable setsfor elliptic and canceling homogeneous differential operators with constant coefficients in the class of bounded functions, using a simple extension of…

Deciding whether a planar graph (even of maximum degree $4$) is $3$-colorable is NP-complete. Determining subclasses of planar graphs being $3$-colorable has a long history, but since Gr\"{o}tzsch's result that triangle-free planar graphs…

The stability number of a graph G is the cardinality of a stability system of G (that is of a stable set of maximum size of G). A graph is alpha-stable if its stability number remains the same upon both the deletion and the addition of any…

In this paper, we introduce the solvabilizer and the solvable graph for a Lie superalgebra and establish their basic properties. Then we define a category which links Lie superalgebras to their solvable substructures. Afterwards, we prove…

Let $f(n,k)$ be the minimum number of edges that must be removed from some complete geometric graph $G$ on $n$ points, so that there exists a tree on $k$ vertices that is no longer a planar subgraph of $G$. In this paper we show that…

The Erdos-Hajnal conjecture says that for every graph $H$ there exists $c>0$ such that $\max(\alpha(G),\omega(G))\ge n^c$ for every $H$-free graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, and this is still open when $H=C_5$. Until now the best bound known on…

For a finite collection of graphs ${\cal F}$, the \textsc{${\cal F}$-TM-Deletion} problem has as input an $n$-vertex graph $G$ and an integer $k$ and asks whether there exists a set $S \subseteq V(G)$ with $|S| \leq k$ such that $G…

Let $G$ be a group. A function $G\rightarrow G$ of the form $x\mapsto x^{\alpha}g$ for a fixed automorphism $\alpha$ of $G$ and a fixed $g\in G$ is called an affine map of $G$. In this paper, we study finite groups $G$ with an affine map of…

The Harary reconstruction conjecture states that any graph with more than four edges can be uniquely reconstructed from its set of maximal edge-deleted subgraphs. In 1977, M\"uller verified the conjecture for graphs with $n$ vertices and $n…

Call a colouring of a graph \emph{distinguishing} if the only automorphism of this graph which preserves said colouring is the identity. Let $H$ be an arbitrary graph. We say that a graph $G$ is \emph{$H$-free} if $G$ does not contain an…

A graph $G$ is said to be $2$-divisible if for all (nonempty) induced subgraphs $H$ of $G$, $V(H)$ can be partitioned into two sets $A,B$ such that $\omega(A) < \omega(H)$ and $\omega(B) < \omega(H)$. A graph $G$ is said to be perfectly…

We determine a lower bound for the number of edges of a 2-connected maximal nontraceable graph, and present a construction of an infinite family of maximal nontraceable graphs that realize this bound.

We relate the graph isomorphism problem to the solvability of certain systems of linear equations with nonnegative variables. This version replaces the two previous versions of this paper.

An oriented graph $H$ is Tur\'anable (resp. tileable) if there exist $n_0 \in \mathbb{N}$ such that every semi-regular near-tournament on $n \ge n_0$ vertices contains a copy of $H$ (resp. a perfect $H$-tiling). We disprove a conjectured…

For a number $l\geq 2$, let ${\cal{G}}_l$ denote the family of graphs which have girth $2l+1$ and have no odd hole with length greater than $2l+1$. Wu, Xu and Xu conjectured that every graph in $\bigcup_{l\geq 2} {\cal{G}}_{l}$ is…

The annihilation number $a(G)$ of a graph $G$ is an efficiently computable upper bound on the independence number $\alpha(G)$ of $G$. Recently, Hiller observed that a characterization of the graphs $G$ with $\alpha(G)=a(G)$ due to Larson…
