Graph colouring and the total Betti number
The total Betti number of the independence complex of a graph is an intriguing graph invariant. Kalai and Meshulam have raised the question on its relation to cycles and the chromatic number of a graph, and a recent conjecture on that theme was proved by Bonamy, Charbit and Thomassé. We show an upper bound on the total Betti number in terms of the number of vertex disjoint cycles in a graph. Th...
متن کاملPositive Pinching , Volume and Second Betti Number
Our main theorem asserts that for all odd n ≥ 3 and 0 < δ ≤ 1, there exists a small constant, i(n, δ) > 0, such that if a simply connected n-manifold, M , with vanishing second Betti number admits a metric of sectional curvature, δ ≤ KM ≤ 1, then the injectivity radius of M is greater than i(n, δ).
متن کاملBetti Number Bounds, Applications and Algorithms
Topological complexity of semialgebraic sets in R has been studied by many researchers over the past fifty years. An important measure of the topological complexity are the Betti numbers. Quantitative bounds on the Betti numbers of a semialgebraic set in terms of various parameters (such as the number and the degrees of the polynomials defining it, the dimension of the set etc.) have proved use...
متن کاملRandom Number Generation and Simulation on Vector and Parallel Computers
Pseudo-random numbers are often required for simulations performed on parallel computers. The requirements for parallel random number generators are more stringent than those for sequential random number generators. As well as passing the usual sequential tests on each processor, a parallel random number generator must give different, independent sequences on each processor. We consider the req...
متن کاملBetti Number Estimates for Nilpotent Groups
We prove an extension of the following result of Lubotzky and Madid on the rational cohomology of a nilpotent group G: If b1 < ∞ and G⊗Q = 0,Q,Q then b2 > b1/4. Here the bi are the rational Betti numbers of G and G ⊗ Q denotes the Malcev-completion of G. In the extension, the bound is improved when the relations of G are known to all have at least a certain commutator length. As an application ...
