Shadows and intersections: stability and new proofs
نویسنده
چکیده
We give a short new proof of a version of the Kruskal-Katona theorem due to Lovász. Our method can be extended to a stability result, describing the approximate structure of configurations that are close to being extremal, which answers a question of Mubayi. This in turn leads to another combinatorial proof of a stability theorem for intersecting families, which was originally obtained by Friedgut using spectral techniques and then sharpened by Keevash and Mubayi by means of a purely combinatorial result of Frankl. We also give an algebraic perspective on these problems, giving yet another proof of intersection stability that relies on expansion of a certain Cayley graph of the symmetric group, and an algebraic generalisation of Lovász’s theorem that answers a question of Frankl and Tokushige.

A note on positive deniteness and stability of interval matrices
It is proved that by using bounds of eigenvalues of an interval matrix, someconditions for checking positive deniteness and stability of interval matricescan be presented. These conditions have been proved previously with variousmethods and now we provide some new proofs for them with a unity method.Furthermore we introduce a new necessary and sucient condition for checkingstability of interval...

متن کاملTransit Signal Priority: Proposing a Novel Algorithm to Decrease Delay and Environmental Impacts in BRT Route Intersections
Intersections are considered as the most critical parts of the bus rapid transit (BRT) system. Transit signal priority is one of the efficient solutions to reduce BRT fleet delays at intersections. The aim of this study is to propose a new algorithm to decrease the BRT fleet delays at actuated intersections, while reducing the negative impacts on different approaches. The adaptive strategy is a...
متن کاملShadows and intersections in vector spaces
We prove a vector space analog of a version of the Kruskal-Katona theorem due to Lovász. We apply this result to extend Frankl’s theorem on r-wise intersecting families to vector spaces. In particular, we obtain a short new proof of the ErdősKo-Rado theorem for vector spaces.
متن کاملRemoving car shadows in video images using entropy and Euclidean distance features
Detecting car motion in video frames is one of the key subjects in computer vision society. In recent years, different approaches have been proposed to address this issue. One of the main challenges of developed image processing systems for car detection is their shadows. Car shadows change the appearance of them in a way that they might seem stitched to other neighboring cars. This study aims ...
