Albertson defined the irregularity of a graph $G$ as $irr(G)=\sum\limits_{uv\in E(G)}|d_G(u)-d_G(v)|$. For a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges, maximum degree $\Delta$, and $d=\left\lfloor \frac{\Delta m}{\Delta n-m}\right\rfloor$, we…

We prove that for every nonnegative integer $g$, there exists a bound on the number of ends of a complete, embedded minimal surface $M$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ of genus $g$ and finite topology. This bound on the finite number of ends when $M$ has…
