چکیده

A spin model is a square matrix that encodes the basic data for a statistical mechanical construction of link invariants due to V.F.R. Jones. Every spin model W is contained in a canonical Bose-Mesner algebra N (W ). In this paper we study the distance-regular graphs whose Bose-Mesner algebra M satisfies W ∈ M ⊆ N (W ). Suppose W has at least three distinct entries. We show that is 1-homogeneous and that the first and the last subconstituents of are strongly regular and distance-regular, respectively.

The Terwilliger Algebra of a Distance-Regular Graph that Supports a Spin Model

Let denote a distance-regular graph with vertex set X , diameter D ≥ 3, valency k ≥ 3, and assume supports a spin model W . Write W = ∑D i=0 ti Ai where Ai is the i th distance-matrix of . To avoid degenerate situations we assume is not a Hamming graph and ti ∈ {t0, −t0} for 1 ≤ i ≤ D. In an earlier paper Curtin and Nomura determined the intersection numbers of in terms of D and two complex par...

Assessment of the Characteristics of MRI Coils in Terms of RF Non-Homogeneity Using Routine Spin Echo Sequences

Introduction: One of the major causes of image non-uniformity in MRI is due to the existence of  non-homogeneity in RF receive and transmit. This can be the most effective source of error in  quantitative  studies  in  MRI  imaging.  Part  of  this  non-homogeneity  demonstrates  the  characteristics of RF coil and part of it is due to the interaction of RF field with the material being  imaged...

Some Formulas for Spin Models on Distance-Regular Graphs

A spin model is a square matrix W satisfying certain conditions which ensure that it yields an invariant of knots and links via a statistical mechanical construction of V. F. R. Jones. Recently F. Jaeger gave a topological construction for each spin model W of an association scheme which contains W in its Bose Mesner algebra. Shortly thereafter, K. Nomura gave a simple algebraic construction of...

D-Spectrum and D-Energy of Complements of Iterated Line Graphs of Regular Graphs

The D-eigenvalues {µ1,…,µp} of a graph G are the eigenvalues of its distance matrix D and form its D-spectrum. The D-energy, ED(G) of G is given by ED (G) =∑i=1p |µi|. Two non cospectral graphs with respect to D are said to be D-equi energetic if they have the same D-energy. In this paper we show that if G is an r-regular graph on p vertices with 2r ≤ p - 1, then the complements of iterated lin...

Distance-Balanced Closure of Some Graphs

In this paper we prove that any distance-balanced graph $G$ with $Delta(G)geq |V(G)|-3$ is regular. Also we define notion of distance-balanced closure of a graph and we find distance-balanced closures of trees $T$ with $Delta(T)geq |V(T)|-3$.
