Proof of the (n/2-n/2-n/2) Conjecture for Large n

چکیده

A conjecture of Loebl, also known as the (n/2 − n/2 − n/2) Conjecture, states that if G is an n-vertex graph in which at least n/2 of the vertices have degree at least n/2, then G contains all trees with at most n/2 edges as subgraphs. Applying the Regularity Lemma, Ajtai, Komlós and Szemerédi proved an approximate version of this conjecture. We prove it exactly for sufficiently large n. This immediately gives a tight upper bound for the Ramsey number of trees, and partially confirms a conjecture of Burr and Erdős.

On the Closed-Form Solution of a Nonlinear Difference Equation and Another Proof to Sroysang’s Conjecture

The purpose of this paper is twofold. First we derive theoretically, using appropriate transformation on x(n), the closed-form solution of the nonlinear difference equation x(n+1) = 1/(±1 + x(n)), n ∈ N_0. The form of solution of this equation, however, was first obtained in [10] but through induction principle. Then, with the solution of the above equation at hand, we prove a case ...

Upper bounds on the solutions to n = p+m^2

ardy and Littlewood conjectured that every large integer $n$ that is not a square is the sum of a prime and a square. They believed that the number $mathcal{R}(n)$ of such representations for $n = p+m^2$ is asymptotically given by begin{equation*} mathcal{R}(n) sim frac{sqrt{n}}{log n}prod_{p=3}^{infty}left(1-frac{1}{p-1}left(frac{n}{p}right)right), end{equation*} where $p$ is a prime, $m$ is a...

Wiener Way to Dimensionality

This note introduces a new general conjecture correlating the dimensionality dT of an infinite lattice with N nodes to the asymptotic value of its Wiener Index W(N). In the limit of large N the general asymptotic behavior W(N)≈Ns is proposed, where the exponent s and dT are related by the conjectured formula s=2+1/dT allowing a new definition of dimensionality dW=(s-2)-1. Being related to the t...

On Silverman's conjecture for a family of elliptic curves

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $Bbb{Q}$ with the given Weierstrass equation $ y^2=x^3+ax+b$. If $D$ is a squarefree integer, then let $E^{(D)}$ denote the $D$-quadratic twist of $E$ that is given by $E^{(D)}: y^2=x^3+aD^2x+bD^3$. Let $E^{(D)}(Bbb{Q})$ be the group of $Bbb{Q}$-rational points of $E^{(D)}$. It is conjectured by J. Silverman that there are infinitely many primes $p$ for which $...
