The net frequency (NF) of a string, of length $m$, in a text, of length $n$, is the number of occurrences of the string in the text with unique left and right extensions. Recently, Guo et al. [CPM 2024] showed that NF is combinatorially…

The spectral graph theory provides an algebraical approach to investigate the characteristics of weighted networks using the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix (e.g., normalized Laplacian matrix) that represents the structure of the…

Consider the $n$th degree polynomial equation, $X^n+A_{n-1}X^{n-1}+...+A_1X+A_0=0$ over the ring of 2 by 2 complex matrices. If this equation has more than ${2n \choose 2}$ solutions, then it has infinitely many solutions. We show here that…

For integers $k,n$ with $1 \le k \le n/2$, let $f(k,n)$ be the smallest integer $t$ such that every $t$-connected $n$-vertex graph has a spanning bipartite $k$-connected subgraph. A conjecture of Thomassen asserts that $f(k,n)$ is upper…

Layer normalization (LN) is a ubiquitous technique in deep learning but our theoretical understanding to it remains elusive. This paper investigates a new theoretical direction for LN, regarding to its nonlinearity and representation…

Let the columns of a $p \times q$ matrix $M$ over any ring be partitioned into $n$ blocks, $M = [M_1, ..., M_n]$. If no $p \times p$ submatrix of $M$ with columns from distinct blocks $M_i$ is invertible, then there is an invertible $p…

Many networks have nodes located in physical space, with links more common between closely spaced pairs of nodes. For example, the nodes could be wireless devices and links communication channels in a wireless mesh network. We describe…

Let $S_k(m):=\sum_{j=1}^{m-1}j^k$ denote a power sum. In 2011, Kellner proposed the conjecture that for $m>3$ the ratio $S_k(m+1)/S_k(m)$ is never an integer, or, equivalently, that for any positive integer $a$, the equation $aS_k(m)=m^k$…

For two sets $A$ and $M$ of positive integers and for a positive integer $n$, let $p(n,A,M)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ with parts in $A$ and multiplicities in $M$, that is, the number of representations of $n$ in the form…

We show that $|mK_X|$ defines a birational map and has no fixed part for some bounded positive integer $m$ for any $\frac{1}{2}$-lc surface $X$ such that $K_X$ is big and nef. For every positive integer $n\geq 3$, we construct a sequence of…

Let $m$, $k_1$, and $k_2$ be three integers with $m\ge 2$. For any set $A\subseteq \mathbb{Z}_m$ and $n\in \mathbb{Z}_m$, let $\hat{r}_{k_1,k_2}(A,n)$ denote the number of solutions of the equation $n=k_1a_1+k_2a_2$ with $a_1,a_2\in A$. In…

Let $(U_n)_{n=0}^\infty$ and $(V_m)_{m=0}^\infty$ be two linear recurrence sequences. For fixed positive integers $k$ and $\ell$, fixed $k$-tuple $(a_1,\dots,a_k)\in \mathbb{Z}^k$ and fixed $\ell$-tuple $(b_1,\dots,b_\ell)\in…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of graphs, and let $p,r$ be nonnegative integers. The \textsc{$(p,r,\mathcal{F})$-Covering} problem asks whether for a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, there exists a set $D$ of at most $k$ vertices in $G$ such…

Let $F_n$ and $L_n$ be the Fibonacci and Lucas numbers, respectively. Four corresponding zeta functions in $s$ are defined by \[\zeta_F(s) \,:=\, \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{F_n^s}\,,\quad \zeta_F^*(s) \,:=\,\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}…

In this paper, using Nevanlinna's value distribution theory of meromorphic functions in several complex variables, we study for the existence of entire solutions $f$ in $\mathbb{C}^2$ of the following partial differential equation…

A segment representation of a graph is an assignment of line segments in 2D to the vertices in such a way that two segments intersect if and only if the corresponding vertices are adjacent. Not all graphs have such segment representations,…

The theory of derivatives and integrals of non-integer order goes back to Leibniz, Liouville, Grunwald, Letnikov and Riemann. The history of fractional vector calculus (FVC) has only 10 years. The main approaches to formulate a FVC, which…

A projective linear code over $\mathbb{F}_q$ is called $\Delta$-divisible if all weights of its codewords are divisible by $\Delta$. Especially, $q^r$-divisible projective linear codes, where $r$ is some integer, arise in many applications…

We show that there exists $k \in \bbn$ and $0 < \e \in\bbr$ such that for every field $F$ of characteristic zero and for every $n \in \bbn$, there exists explicitly given linear transformations $T_1,..., T_k: F^n \to F^n$ satisfying the…

We consider the dimensionality of social networks, and develop experiments aimed at predicting that dimension. We find that a social network model with nodes and links sampled from an $m$-dimensional metric space with power-law distributed…
