A necessary and sufficient condition for the boundedness of a solution of the third problem for the Laplace equation is given. As an application a similar result is given for the third problem for the Poisson equation on domains with Lipschitz boundary.
P. Kristiansen, S.M. Hedetniemi, and S. T. Hedetniemi, in Alliances in graphs, J. Combin. Math. Combin. Comput. 48 (2004), 157–177, and T. W. Haynes, S. T. Hedetniemi, and M. A. Henning, in Global defensive alliances in graphs, Electron. J. Combin. 10 (2003), introduced the defensive alliance number γa(G), strong defensive alliance number aˆ(G), and global defensive alliance number γa(G). In this paper, we consider relationships between these parameters and the domination number γ(G). For any positive integers a, b, and c satisfying a ≤ c and b ≤ c, there is a graph G with a = a(G), b = γ(G), and c = γa(G). For any positive integers a, b, and c, provided a ≤ b ≤ c and c is not too much larger than a and b, there is a graph G with γ(G) = a, γa(G) = b, and γaˆ(G) = c. Given two connected graphs H1 and H2, where order(H1) ≤ order(H2), there exists a graph G with a unique minimum defensive alliance isomorphic to H1 and a unique minimum strong defensive alliance isomorphic to H2.
The authors examine the frequency distribution of second-order recurrence sequences that are not p-regular, for an odd prime p, and apply their results to compute bounds for the frequencies of p-singular elements of p-regular second-order recurrences modulo powers of the prime p. The authors’ results have application to the p-stability of second-order recurrence sequences.
Let $G$ be a simple connected graph of order $n$ with degree sequence $(d_1,d_2,\ldots ,d_n)$. Denote $(^\alpha t)_i = \sum \nolimits _{j\colon i \sim j} {d_j^\alpha }$, $(^\alpha m)_i = {(^\alpha t)_i }/{d_i^\alpha }$ and $(^\alpha N)_i = \sum \nolimits _{j\colon i \sim j} {(^\alpha t)_j }$, where $\alpha $ is a real number. Denote by $\lambda _1(G)$ and $\mu _1(G)$ the spectral radius of the adjacency matrix and the Laplacian matrix of $G$, respectively. In this paper, we present some upper and lower bounds of $\lambda _1(G)$ and $\mu _1(G)$ in terms of $(^\alpha t)_i $, $(^\alpha m)_i $ and $(^\alpha N)_i $. Furthermore, we also characterize some extreme graphs which attain these upper bounds. These results theoretically improve and generalize some known results.
Let $G$ be a weighted hypergraph with edges of size at most 2. Bollobás and Scott conjectured that $G$ admits a bipartition such that each vertex class meets edges of total weight at least $(w_1-\Delta_1)/2+2w_2/3$, where $w_i$ is the total weight of edges of size $i$ and $\Delta_1$ is the maximum weight of an edge of size 1. In this paper, for positive integer weighted hypergraph $G$ (i.e., multi-hypergraph), we show that there exists a bipartition of $G$ such that each vertex class meets edges of total weight at least $(w_0-1)/6+(w_1-\Delta_1)/3+2w_2/3$, where $w_0$ is the number of edges of size 1. This generalizes a result of Haslegrave. Based on this result, we show that every graph with $m$ edges, except for $K_2$ and $K_{1,3}$, admits a tripartition such that each vertex class meets at least $\lceil{2m}/5\rceil$ edges, which establishes a special case of a more general conjecture of Bollobás and Scott., Qinghou Zeng, Jianfeng Hou., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
This paper deals with conditions of compatibility of a system of copulas and with bounds of general Fréchet classes. Algebraic search for the bounds is interpreted as a solution to a linear system of Diophantine equations. Classical analytical specification of the bounds is described.
This paper is concerned with bounds of eigenvalues of a complex matrix. Both lower and upper bounds of modulus of eigenvalues are given by the Stein equation. Furthermore, two sequences are presented which converge to the minimal and the maximal modulus of eigenvalues, respectively. We have to point out that the two sequences are not recommendable for practical use for finding the minimal and the maximal modulus of eigenvalues.
We are concerned with bounds of the matrix eigenvalues and its exponential. Combining the Lyapunov equation with the weighted logarithmic matrix norm technique, four sequences are presented to locate eigenvalues of a matrix. Based on the relations between the real parts of the eigenvalues and the weighted logarithmic matrix norms, we derive both lower and upper bounds of the matrix exponential, which complement and improve the existing results in the literature. Some numerical examples are also given.
A total dominating set in a graph $G$ is a subset $X$ of $V(G)$ such that each vertex of $V(G)$ is adjacent to at least one vertex of $X$. The total domination number of $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a total dominating set. A function $f\colon V(G)\rightarrow \{-1,1\}$ is a signed dominating function (SDF) if the sum of its function values over any closed neighborhood is at least one. The weight of an SDF is the sum of its function values over all vertices. The signed domination number of $G$ is the minimum weight of an SDF on $G$. In this paper we present several upper bounds on the algebraic connectivity of a connected graph in terms of the total domination and signed domination numbers of the graph. Also, we give lower bounds on the Laplacian spectral radius of a connected graph in terms of the signed domination number of the graph.
The hypergeometric distributions have many important applications, but they have not had sufficient attention in information theory. Hypergeometric distributions can be approximated by binomial distributions or Poisson distributions. In this paper we present upper and lower bounds on information divergence. These bounds are important for statistical testing and for a better understanding of the notion of exchangeability.
