An edge-colouring is {\em strong} if every colour class is an induced matching. In this work we give a formulae that determines either the optimal or the optimal plus one strong chromatic index of bipartite outerplanar graphs. Further, we…

We establish the existence of an optimal partition for the Yamabe equation in the whole space made up of mutually linearly isometric sets, each of them invariant under the action of a group of linear isometries. To do this, we establish the…

This article derives lower bounds on the supremal (strict) p-negative type of finite metric spaces using purely elementary techniques. The bounds depend only on the cardinality and the (scaled) diameter of the underlying finite metric…

A bisection in a graph is a cut in which the number of vertices in the two parts differ by at most 1. In this paper, we give lower bounds for the maximum weight of bisections of edge-weighted graphs with bounded maximum degree. Our results…

We present some upper and lower bounds for the numerical radius of a bounded linear operator defined on complex Hilbert space, which improves on the existing upper and lower bounds. We also present an upper bound for the spectral radius of…

The theory of polar forms of polynomials is used to provide for sharp bounds on the radius of the largest possible disc (absolute stability radius), and on the length of the largest possible real interval (parabolic stability radius), to be…
