چکیده

We prove a relationship between the Cleaning problem and the Balanced Vertex– Ordering problem, namely that the minimum total imbalance of a graph equals twice the brush number of a graph. This equality has consequences for both problems. On one hand, it allows us to prove the NP-completeness of the Cleaning problem, which was conjectured by Messinger et al. [7]. On the other hand, it also enables us to design a faster algorithm for the Balanced Vertex–Ordering problem [6].

Study on the new graph constructed by a commutative ring

Let R be a commutative ring and G(R) be a graph with vertices as proper andnon-trivial ideals of R. Two distinct vertices I and J are said to be adjacentif and only if I + J = R. In this paper we study a graph constructed froma subgraph G(R)Δ(R) of G(R) which consists of all ideals I of R such thatI Δ J(R), where J(R) denotes the Jacobson radical of R. In this paper westudy about the relation b...

Put your best figure forward: line graphs and scattergrams.

There is an old saying that “a picture is worth a thousand words.” In truth, only a well-prepared, selfexplanatory picture is worth a thousand words. The same holds true for research studies, for which 1 of the main methods we use to communicate our message is in figures and graphs. Figures and graphs tell much of the story by giving readers a visual anchor to help them see, understand, and rem...

Physical separation of amphiprotic-polar aprotic solvents for simultaneous extraction and clean-up of clomiphene from plasma before liquid chromatographic analyzes

An efficient and quantitative two phase freezing (TPF) method coupled with high performance liquid chromatography and UV-Vis detector was developed for the extraction, clean up and determination of clomiphene citrate (CLC) in plasma samples. The separation of two miscible solvents by TPF method permits that the CLC was efficiently removed from proteins and transferred into the relative aprotic ...
