Pokrovskiy conjectured that there is a function $f: \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ such that any $2k$-strongly-connected tournament with minimum out and in-degree at least $f(k)$ is $k$-linked. In this paper, we show that any…
The converse of a tournament is obtained by reversing all arcs. If a tournament is isomorphic to its converse, it is called self--converse. Eplett provided a necessary and sufficient condition for a sequence of integers to be realisable as…
Take n>k>1 such that n-k is odd. In this paper we consider mapping a from (n-k+1)-dimensional closed ball into the space of (n \times k)--matrices such that its restriction to a sphere goes into the Stiefel manifold V_k(R^n). We construct a…
The R\'{e}nyi $\alpha$-entropy $H_{\alpha}$ of complete antisymmetric directed graphs (i.e., tournaments) is explored. We optimize $H_{\alpha}$ when $\alpha = 2$ and $3$, and find that as $\alpha$ increases $H_{\alpha}$'s sensitivity to…
The number of Monotone Triangles with bottom row k1 < k2 < ... < kn is given by a polynomial alpha(n; k1,...,kn) in n variables. The evaluation of this polynomial at weakly decreasing sequences k1 >= k2 >= ... >= kn turns out to be…
A conjecture of Alon, Pach and Solymosi, which is equivalent to the celebrated Erd\H{o}s-Hajnal Conjecture, states that for every tournament $S$ there exists $\epsilon(S)>0$ such that if $T$ is an $n$-vertex tournament that does not…
Rosenfeld Conjectured in 1972 that there exists an integer K $\geq$ 8 such that any tournament of order n $\geq$ K contains any Hamiltonian oriented path. In 2000, Havet and Thomass\'e proved this conjecture for any tournament with exactly…
A tournament on 8 or more vertices may be intrinsically linked as a directed graph. We begin the classification of intrinsically linked tournaments by examining their score sequences. While many distinct tournaments may have the same score…
This paper considers random (non-Hermitian) circulant matrices, and proves several results analogous to recent theorems on non-Hermitian random matrices with independent entries. In particular, the limiting spectral distribution of a random…
A tournament is an orientation of a complete graph. A vertex that can reach every other vertex within two steps is called a \emph{king}. We study the complexity of finding $k$ kings in a tournament graph. We show that the randomized query…
For an integer $k\geq 1$, a graph is called a $k$-circulant if its automorphism group contains a cyclic semiregular subgroup with $k$ orbits on the vertices. We show that, if $k$ is even, there exist infinitely many cubic arc-transitive…
We discuss $SU(2)$ Bogomolny monopoles of arbitrary charge $k$ invariant under various symmetry groups. The analysis is largely in terms of the spectral curves, the rational maps, and the Nahm equations associated with monopoles. We…
In this paper, we introduce polynomial time algorithms that generate random $k$-noncrossing partitions and 2-regular, $k$-noncrossing partitions with uniform probability. A $k$-noncrossing partition does not contain any $k$ mutually…
We consider $4$-uniform hypergraphs with the maximum number of hyperedges subject to the condition that every set of $5$ vertices spans either $0$ or exactly $2$ hyperedges and give a construction, using quadratic residues, for an infinite…
A generalized $N$-sided die is a random variable $D$ on a sample space of $N$ equally likely outcomes taking values in the set of positive integers. We say of independent $N$ sided dice $D_i, D_j$ that $D_i$ beats $D_j$, written $D_i \to…
Given a closed $n$-manifold, we consider the set of simple homotopy types of $n$-manifolds within its homotopy type, called its simple homotopy manifold set. We characterise it in terms of algebraic K-theory, the surgery obstruction map,…
We present results and examples which show that the consideration of a certain tubular mutation is advantageous in the study of noncommutative curves which parametrize the simple regular representations of a tame bimodule. We classify all…
A tournament is an orientation of a graph. Each edge represents a match, directed towards the winner. The score sequence lists the number of wins by each team. Landau (1953) characterized score sequences of the complete graph. Moon (1963)…
A multipartite tournament is an orientation of a complete $k$-partite graph for some positive integer $k\geq 3$. We say that a multipartite tournament $D$ is tight if every partite set forms a clique in the $(1,2)$-step competition graph,…
The Seidel matrix of a tournament on $n$ players is an $n\times n$ skew-symmetric matrix with entries in $\{0, 1, -1\}$ that encapsulates the outcomes of the games in the given tournament. It is known that the determinant of an $n\times n$…
