Homotopy type of the complex of free factors of a free group
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.

CBSF: A New Empirical Scoring Function for Docking Parameterized by Weights of Neural Network
A new CBSF empirical scoring function for the estimation of binding energies between proteins and small molecules is proposed in this report. The final score is obtained as a sum of three energy terms calculated using descriptors based on a simple ...

When products of projections diverge
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.

Bounds for The Geometric-Arithmetic Index of a Graph
The first geometric-arithmetic index GA1.G/, which was introduced by D. Vukičević and B. Furtula recently, is a graph-based molecular structure descriptor.

Decomposing tournaments into paths
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
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
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 ...

Similarly to Wiener index, hyper-Wiener index of a connected graph is a widely applied topological index measuring the compactness of the structure described by the given graph. Hyper-Wiener index is the sum of the distances plus the squares of distances

The harmonic index for unicyclic and bicyclic graphs with given matching number
The harmonic index of a graph G is defined as the sum of the weights 2 d.u/Cd.v/ of all edges uv of G, where d.u/ denotes the degree of a vertex u in G.

The Sanskruti index of trees and unicyclic graphs
The Sanskruti index of a graph G is defined as S(G)=∑uv∈E(G)sG(u)sG(v)sG(u)+sG(v)−23,$$\begin{align*}S(G)=\sum_{uv\in{}E(G)}{\left(\frac{s_G(u)s_G(v)}{s_G(u)+s_G(v)-2}\right)}^3, \end{align*}$$where sG(u) is the sum of the degrees of the neighbors of a ...
