Running the Numbers

Running head: UNCONSCIOUS ANALYSIS OF NUMBERS

Subjects classified visible 2-digit numbers as larger or smaller than 55. Target numbers were preceded by masked 2-digit primes that were either congruent (same relation to 55) or incongruent. Experiments 1 and 2 showed prime congruency effects for stimuli never included in the set of classified visible targets, indicating subliminal priming based on long-term semantic memory. Experiments 2 and...

Running head: numbers and space THE TEMPORARY NATURE OF NUMBER-SPACE INTERACTIONS

It is commonly accepted that the mental representation and processing of number and of space are tightly linked. This is evident from studies showing relations between math ability and visuospatial skill. Also, math instruction and education rely strongly on visuospatial tools and strategies. The dominant explanation for these number-space interactions is that the mental representation of numbe...

The minus k-domination numbers in graphs

For any integer  ‎, ‎a minus  k-dominating function is a‎function  f‎ : ‎V (G)  {-1,0‎, ‎1} satisfying w) for every  vertex v, ‎where N(v) ={u V(G) | uv  E(G)}  and N[v] =N(v)cup {v}. ‎The minimum of ‎the values of  v)‎, ‎taken over all minus‎k-dominating functions f,‎ is called the minus k-domination‎number and is denoted by $gamma_k^-(G)$ ‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we ‎introduce the study of minu...

Zarankiewicz Numbers and Bipartite Ramsey Numbers

The Zarankiewicz number z(b; s) is the maximum size of a subgraph of Kb,b which does not contain Ks,s as a subgraph. The two-color bipartite Ramsey number b(s, t) is the smallest integer b such that any coloring of the edges of Kb,b with two colors contains a Ks,s in the rst color or a Kt,t in the second color.In this work, we design and exploit a computational method for bounding and computing...
