Let $\G(k,r)$ be the Grassmannian of $k$--subspaces in $\Proj^r$ embedded in $\Proj^{N(k,r)}$, with $N(k,r)={{r+1}\choose {k+1}}-1$, via the Pl\"ucker embedding. In this paper, extending some classical results by Gallarati (see \cite…

We prove two conjectures in spectral extremal graph theory involving the linear combinations of graph eigenvalues. Let $\lambda_1(G)$ be the largest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a graph $G$, and $\bar{G}$ be the complement of $G$.…

In this paper, we make progress on a question related to one of Galvin that has attracted substantial attention recently. The question is that of determining among all graphs $G$ with $n$ vertices and $\Delta(G)\leq r$, which has the most…

We study K(n)*(Gr(d,m)) for all n - the 2-local Morava K-theories of the real Grassmanian Gr(d,m) of d-planes in R^m, about which very little has been previously computed. We conjecture that the Atiyah-Hirzebruch Spectral Sequences…

Let $\mathrm{IG}(k, 2n+1)$ be the odd-symplectic Grassmannian. Property $\mathcal{O}$, introduced by Galkin, Golyshev and Iritani for arbitrary complex, Fano manifolds $X$, is a statement about the eigenvalues of the linear operator…

We construct a family of countexamples to a conjecture of Galvin [5], which stated that for any $n$-vertex, $d$-regular graph $G$ and any graph $H$ (possibly with loops), \[\hom(G,H) \leq \max\left\lbrace\hom(K_{d,d}, H)^{\frac{n}{2d}},…

We define a theory of Galilean gravity in 2+1 dimensions with cosmological constant as a Chern-Simons gauge theory of the doubly-extended Newton-Hooke group, extending our previous study of classical and quantum gravity in 2+1 dimensions in…

Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional left vector space over a division ring $R$ and $n\ge 3$. Denote by ${\mathcal G}_{k}$ the Grassmann space of $k$-dimensional subspaces of $V$ and put ${\mathfrak G}_{k}$ for the set of all pairs $(S,U)\in…

We formulate a generalization of the volume conjecture for planar graphs. Denoting by <G, c> the Kauffman bracket of the graph G whose edges are decorated by real "colors" c, the conjecture states that, under suitable conditions, certain…

Brouwer's Conjecture states that, for any graph $G$, the sum of the $k$ largest (combinatorial) Laplacian eigenvalues of $G$ is at most $|E(G)| + \binom{k+1}{2}$, $1 \leq k \leq n$. We present several interrelated results establishing…

We consider the Grassmann graph of $k$-dimensional subspaces of an $n$-dimensional vector space over the $q$-element field and its subgraph $\Gamma(n,k)_q$ formed by non-degenerate linear $[n,k]_q$ codes. We assume that $1<k<n-1$. It is…

In 1990, Cvetkovi\'{c} and Rowlinson [The largest eigenvalue of a graph: a survey, Linear Multilinear Algebra 28(1-2) (1990), 3--33] conjectured that among all outerplanar graphs on $n$ vertices, $K_1\vee P_{n-1}$ attains the maximum…

Let X(G) denote the flag complex of a graph G=(V,E) on n vertices. We study relations between the first eigenvalues of successive higher Laplacians of X(G). One consequence is the following result: Let \lambda_2(G) denote the second…

It is known that the complex Grassmannian of $k$-dimensional subspaces can be identified with the set of projection matrices of rank $k$. It is also classically known that the convex hull of this set is the set of Hermitian matrices with…
