In this note we obtain sharp bounds for the identric mean in terms of a two parameter family of means. Our results generalize and extend recent bounds due to Y. M. Chu & al. (2011), and to M.-K. Wang & al. (2012).

On a compact metric graph, we consider the spectrum of the Laplacian defined with a mix of standard and Dirichlet vertex conditions. A Cheeger-type lower bound on the gap $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1$ is established, with a constant that depends…

To untangle a geometric graph means to move some of the vertices so that the resulting geometric graph has no crossings. Pach and Tardos [Discrete Comput. Geom., 2002] asked if every n-vertex geometric planar graph can be untangled while…

It is known that the number of vertices of a graph of diameter two cannot exceed $d^2+1$. In this contribution we give a new lower bound for orders of Cayley graphs of diameter two in the form $C(d,2)>0.684d^2$ valid for all degrees $d\geq…

Consider finite sequences $X_{[1,n]}=X_1\dots X_n$ and $Y_{[1,n]}=Y_1\dots Y_n$ of length $n$, consisting of i.i.d.\ samples of random letters from a finite alphabet, and let $S$ and $T$ be chosen i.i.d.\ randomly from the unit ball in the…

In this paper, we study the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)$-improving bounds, i.e., $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)\rightarrow L^q(\mathbb{R}^2)$ estimates, of the maximal function $M_{\gamma}$ along a plane curve $(t,\gamma(t))$, where…

We consider the problem of constructing bounded-degree planar geometric spanners of Euclidean and unit-disk graphs. It is well known that the Delaunay subgraph is a planar geometric spanner with stretch factor $C_{del\approx 2.42$; however,…

The optimum interval method for finding an upper limit of a one-dimensionally distributed signal in the presence of an unknown background is extended to the case of high statistics. There is also some discussion of how the method can be…

In this paper, we show that the oriented diameter of any $n$-vertex $2$-connected near triangulation is at most $\lceil{\frac{n}{2}}\rceil$ (except for seven small exceptions), and the upper bound is tight. This extends a result of Wang…

In this paper, we give a sufficient and necessary condition for a $k$-extendable graph to be $2k$-factor-critical when $k=\nu/4$, and prove some results on independence numbers in $n$-factor-critical graphs and $k\frac{1}{2}$-extendable…

In this short note we derive, for bounded domains, an upper bound for a Friedrichs type constant in a weighted Friedrichs type inequality. This upper bound generalizes a well known upper bound of the Friedrichs constant. This upper bound is…

An $\epsilon$-distance-uniform graph is one in which from every vertex, all but an $\epsilon$-fraction of the remaining vertices are at some fixed distance $d$, called the critical distance. We consider the maximum possible value of $d$ in…

The biplanar crossing number of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of crossings over all possible drawings of the edges of $G$ in two disjoint planes. We present new bounds on the biplanar crossing number of complete graphs and complete…

Suppose that $D=(V,E)$ is a strongly connected digraph. Let $u,v\in V(D)$. The maximum distance $md (u,v)$ is defined as $md(u,v)$=max\{$\overrightarrow{d}(u,v), \overrightarrow{d}(v,u)$\} where $\overrightarrow{d}(u,v)$ denote the length…

We obtain some new upper bounds on the Ramsey numbers of the form $R(\underbrace{C_4,\ldots,C_4}_m,G_1,\ldots,G_n)$, where $m\ge 1$ and $G_1,\ldots,G_n$ are arbitrary graphs. We focus on the cases of $G_i$'s being complete, star $K_{1,k}$…

Additive spanners are fundamental graph structures with wide applications in network design, graph sparsification, and distance approximation. In particular, a $4$-additive spanner is a subgraph that preserves all pairwise distances up to…

We prove an upper bound on the number of pairwise strongly cospectral vertices in a normal Cayley graph, in terms of the multiplicities of its eigenvalues. We use this to determine an explicit bound in Cayley graphs of $\mathbb{Z}_2^d$ and…

We establish the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^3)$ boundedness of the helical maximal function for the sharp range $p>3$. Our results improve the previous known bounds for $p>4$. The key ingredient is a new microlocal smoothing estimate for averages…

We wish to bring attention to a natural but slightly hidden problem, posed by Erd\H{o}s and Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il in the late 1980s, an edge version of the degree--diameter problem. Our main result is that, for any graph of maximum degree…

We revisit the classical question of the relationship between the diameter of a graph and its expansion properties. One direction is well understood: expander graphs exhibit essentially the lowest possible diameter. We focus on the reverse…
