Manifolds Close to the round Sphere
We prove that the manifold Mn of minimal radial curvature Kmin o ≥ 1 is homeomorphic to the sphere Sn if its radius or volume is larger than half the radius or volume of the round sphere of constant curvature 1. These results are optimal and give a complete generalization of the corresponding results for manifolds of sectional curvature bounded from below. 0. Introduction and results 0.1. A sta...
متن کاملMean Hierarchical Distance Augmenting Mean Dependency Distance
With a dependency grammar, this study provides a unified method for calculating the syntactic complexity in linear and hierarchical dimensions. Two metrics, mean dependency distance (MDD) and mean hierarchical distance (MHD), one for each dimension, are adopted. Some results from the Czech-English dependency treebank are revealed: (1) Positive asymmetries in the distributions of the two metrics...
متن کاملDistance Geometry on the Sphere
The Distance Geometry Problem asks whether a given weighted graph has a realization in a target Euclidean space R which ensures that the Euclidean distance between two realized vertices incident to a same edge is equal to the given edge weight. In this paper we look at the setting where the target space is the surface of the sphere SK−1. We show that the DGP is almost the same in this setting, ...
متن کاملCharacterizing distance-regularity of graphs by the spectrum
We characterize the distance-regular Ivanov–Ivanov–Faradjev graph from the spectrum, and construct cospectral graphs of the Johnson graphs, Doubled Odd graphs, Grassmann graphs, Doubled Grassmann graphs, antipodal covers of complete bipartite graphs, and many of the Taylor graphs. We survey the known results on cospectral graphs of the Hamming graphs, and of all distance-regular graphs on at mo...
متن کاملChords, Light, and Another Synthetic Characterization of the round Sphere
A chord for a closed geodesic γ in a complete Riemannian manifold M is a nontrivial geodesic segment beginning and ending on γ that is not completely contained in γ. We prove the existence of at least one geodesic chord for every closed geodesic in a closed Riemannian manifold. As an application, we give a synthetic characterization of round spheres in terms of blocking light. The study of clos...
