For an integer $n\geq 2$, the triangular graph has vertex set the $2$-subsets of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ and edge set the pairs of $2$-subsets intersecting at one point. Such graphs are known to be halved graphs of bipartite rectagraphs, which are…

A hyperbinary partition of the nonnegative integer n is a partition where every part is a power of 2 and every part appears at most twice. We give three applications of the length generating function for such partitions, denoted by h_q(n).…

If $A$ is an $n\times n$ matrix whose $n$ eigenvalues are ordered in terms of decreasing modules, $|\lambda_1 | \geq |\lambda_2| \geq ... |\lambda_n|$, it is often of interest to estimate $\frac{|\lambda_2|}{|\lambda_1|}$. If $A$ is a row…

Let $\mathbb{D}$ be a division ring, and let ${\mathbb{D}}^{m\times n}$ be the set of $m\times n$ matrices over $\mathbb{D}$. Two matrices $A,B\in {\mathbb{D}}^{m\times n}$ are adjacent if ${\rm rank}(A-B)=1$. By the adjacency,…

We prove a formula for the ${\mathbb S}_n$-equivariant Euler characteristic of the moduli space of graphs $\mathcal{MG}_{g,n}$. Moreover, we prove that the rational ${\mathbb S}_n$-invariant cohomology of $\mathcal{MG}_{g,n}$ stabilizes for…

For a finite, simple, and undirected graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges, and largest eigenvalue $\lambda$, Nikiforov introduced the degree deviation of $G$ as $s=\sum_{u\in V(G)}\left|d_G(u)-\frac{2m}{n}\right|$. Contributing to a…

We pick up a solvable ${\cal PT}-$symmetric quantum square well on an interval of $x \in := (-L,L)\mathbb{G}^{(2)}$ (with an $\alpha-$dependent non-Hermiticity given by Robin boundary conditions) and generalize it. In essence, we just…

An equitable $k$-partition of a graph $G$ is a collection of induced subgraphs $(G[V_1],G[V_2],\ldots,G[V_k])$ of $G$ such that $(V_1,V_2,\ldots,V_k)$ is a partition of $V(G)$ and $-1\le |V_i|-|V_j|\le 1$ for all $1\le i<j\le k$. We prove…
