Rainbow Connection Number of Dense Graphs

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2013
An edge-colored graph G is rainbow connected, if any two vertices are connected by a path whose edges have distinct colors. The rainbow connection number of a connected graph G, denoted rc(G), is the smallest number of colors that are needed in order to ...

Vocal Learning Versus Speech Evolution: Untangling a False Equivalence

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The evolution of speech remains one of the most profound and unresolved questions in science. Despite significant advancements in comparative research, key assumptions about the evolutionary precursors of speech continue to be accepted with minimal scrutiny.

Recent developments in algebraic combinatorics [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2002
A survey of three recent developments in algebraic combinatorics: (1) the Laurent phenomenon, (2) Gromov-Witten invariants and toric Schur functions, and (3) toric h-vectors and intersection cohomology. This paper is a continuation of "Recent progress in algebraic combinatorics" (math.CO/0010218), which dealt with three other topics.

Invariants of Combinatorial Line Arrangements and Rybnikov's Example

open access: yes, 2004
Following the general strategy proposed by G.Rybnikov, we present a proof of his well-known result, that is, the existence of two arrangements of lines having the same combinatorial type, but non-isomorphic fundamental groups.

New Families of Strength‐3 Covering Arrays Using Linear Feedback Shift Register Sequences

open access: yesJournal of Combinatorial Designs, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 156-171, April 2025.
ABSTRACT In an array over an alphabet of v symbols, a t‐set of column indices { c 1 , … , c t } is covered if each t‐tuple of the alphabet occurs at least once as a row of the sub‐array indexed by c 1 , … , c t. A covering array, denoted by CA( N ; t , k , v ), is an N × k array over an alphabet with v symbols with the property that any t‐set of ...

Combinatorics and geometry of Littlewood-Richardson cones [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2004
We present several direct bijections between different combinatorial interpretations of the Littlewood-Richardson coefficients. The bijections are defined by explicit linear maps which have other applications.

On the Pre‐ and Post‐Positional Semi‐Random Graph Processes

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 108, Issue 4, Page 819-831, April 2025.
ABSTRACT We study the semi‐random graph process, and a variant process recently suggested by Nick Wormald. We show that these two processes are asymptotically equally fast in constructing a semi‐random graph G $G$ that has property P ${\mathscr{P}}$, for the following examples of P ${\mathscr{P}}$: (1) P ${\mathscr{P}}$ is the set of graphs containing ...
