چکیده

Sewell and Trotter proved that every connected α-critical graph that is not isomorphic to K1,K2 or an odd cycle contains a totally odd K4-subdivision. Their theorem implies an interesting min-max relation for stable sets in graphs without totally odd K4-subdivisions. In this note, we give a simpler proof of Sewell and Trotter’s theorem.

A Szemeredi-Trotter type theorem in $\mathbb{R}^4$

We show that under suitable non-degeneracy conditions, m points and n 2–dimensional algebraic surfaces in R satisfying certain “pseudoflat” requirements can have at most O ( mn + m + n ) incidences, provided that m ≤ n2− for any > 0 (where the implicit constant in the above bound depends on ), or m ≥ n. As a special case, we obtain the Szemerédi-Trotter theorem for 2–planes in R, again provided...

Szemerédi-Trotter type theorem and sum-product estimate in finite fields

We study a Szemerédi-Trotter type theorem in finite fields. We then use this theorem to obtain an improved sum-product estimate in finite fields.

Approximation of the Semigroup of a Linear Age-dependent Population Model with Spatial Diiusion Running Head: Age-dependent Population Diiusion Mail Proofs To

In this paper a variational version of the Trotter-Kato theorem is applied to an innnitesimal generator A of a C 0-semigroup in a Hilbert space that is assumed to be the sum of two linear operators A and B deened on the intersection of their domains, where A ? !I is m-dissipative for some ! > 0 and B is the generator of an analytic semigroup associated with a bounded V-coercive sesquilinear for...

The Szemerédi-Trotter theorem in the complex plane

This paper generalizes of the Szemerédi-Trotter theorem to the complex plane. Szemerédi and Trotter proved that the number of point-line incidences of n points and e lines in the real Euclidean plane is O(n2/3e2/3 + n + e). This bound is tight. Although several short proofs were found to this theorem [14, 12], and many multidimensional generalizations were given, no tight bound has been known s...
