Homotopy type of the complex of free factors of a free group
Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 121, Issue 6, Page 1737-1765, December 2020., 2020 Abstract We show that the complex of free factors of a free group of rank n⩾2 is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres of dimension n−2. We also prove that for n⩾2, the complement of (unreduced) Outer space in the free splitting complex is homotopy equivalent to the complex of free factor systems and moreover is (n−2)‐connected.

When products of projections diverge
Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 102, Issue 1, Page 345-367, August 2020., 2020 Abstract Slow convergence of cyclic projections implies divergence of random projections and vice versa. Let L1,L2,⋯,LK be a family of K closed subspaces of a Hilbert space. It is well known that although the cyclic product of the orthogonal projections on these spaces always converges in norm, random products might diverge.

Decomposing tournaments into paths
Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 121, Issue 2, Page 426-461, August 2020., 2020 Abstract We consider a generalisation of Kelly's conjecture which is due to Alspach, Mason, and Pullman from 1976. Kelly's conjecture states that every regular tournament has an edge decomposition into Hamilton cycles, and this was proved by Kühn and Osthus for large tournaments. The conjecture of Alspach, Mason, and Pullman asks for the minimum number

Untwisting 3‐strand torus knots
Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 52, Issue 3, Page 429-436, June 2020., 2020 Abstract We prove that the signature bound for the topological 4‐genus of 3‐strand torus knots is sharp, using McCoy's twisting method. We also show that the bound is off by at most 1 for 4‐strand and 6‐strand torus knots, and improve the upper bound on the asymptotic ratio between the topological 4‐genus and the Seifert genus of torus knots from 2/3 ...

Location of zeros for the partition function of the Ising model on bounded degree graphs
Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 765-785, April 2020., 2020 Abstract The seminal Lee–Yang theorem states that for any graph the zeros of the partition function of the ferromagnetic Ising model lie on the unit circle in C. In fact, the union of the zeros of all graphs is dense on the unit circle. In this paper, we study the location of the zeros for the class of graphs of bounded maximum degree d⩾3, both in the ...

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 74-82, February 2025.Background — Anal sac impaction is common in dogs and manual expression may be effective, yet recurrence remains a problem. To facilitate physiological emptying of the sacs, it is important to maintain a bulky stool consistency. Objectives — The study evaluated if supplementation with ProGlan, a complementary feed containing Bacillus velezensis C‐3102 ...

Lower and upper bounds of shortest paths in reachability graphs
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2004, Issue 57, Page 3023-3036, 2004., 2004 We prove the following property for safe marked graphs, safe conflict‐free Petri nets, and live and safe extended free‐choice Petri nets. We prove the following three results. If the Petri net is a marked graph, then the length of the shortest path is at most (|T| − 1) · |T|/2.

Method for solving a convex integer programming problem
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2003, Issue 44, Page 2829-2834, 2003., 2003 We consider a convex integer program which is a nonlinear version of the assignment problem. This problem is reformulated as an equivalent problem. An algorithm for solving the original problem is suggested which is based on solving the simple assignment problem via some of known algorithms.
