چکیده

It was in this city, then, that two crucial factors in my life took shape, as ordained by God or Chance: here is where my father, Eduard Kiš (orig. Kohn – JKC), senior inspector of the state railways and author of the Yugoslav Timetable for Railroad, Bus, Ship and Air Traffic, met my mother, Milica Dragihevih, a Montenegrin beauty, away from her native Cetinje for the first time, on a visit to her sister. A rare encounter, perhaps unique in those times.

A Critical Analysis of the Magdeburg Canal Bridge, Magdeburg, Germany

This paper introduces Europe’s largest Canal Bridge found in Magdeburg, Germany. The uncommon nature of the bridge is established through its history and its function. Various relative checks are then applied on critical aspects under its Ultimate Limit State. A structural analysis of critical members, according to BS5400, is also undertaken.

Nowhere-zero flow polynomials

In this article we introduce the flow polynomial of a digraph and use it to study nowherezero flows from a commutative algebraic perspective. Using Hilbert’s Nullstellensatz, we establish a relation between nowhere-zero flows and dual flows. For planar graphs this gives a relation between nowhere-zero flows and flows of their planar duals. It also yields an appealing proof that every bridgeless...

Nowhere-Zero 5-Flows On Cubic Graphs with Oddness 4

Tutte’s 5-Flow Conjecture from 1954 states that every bridgeless graph has a nowhere-zero 5-flow. In 2004, Kochol proved that the conjecture is equivalent to its restriction on cyclically 6-edge connected cubic graphs. We prove that every cyclically 6-edge-connected cubic graph with oddness at most 4 has a nowhere-zero 5-flow.

Nowhere-zero 3-flows in products of graphs

A graph G is an odd-circuit tree if every block of G is an odd length circuit. It is proved in this paper that the product of every pair of graphs G and H admits a nowhere-zero 3-flow unless G is an odd-circuit tree and H has a bridge. This theorem is a partial result to the Tutte’s 3-flow conjecture and generalizes a result by Imrich and Skrekovski [7] that the product of two bipartite graphs ...
