New Lower Bounds for the Topological Complexity of Aspherical Spaces
نویسنده
چکیده
We show that the topological complexity of an aspherical space X is bounded below by the cohomological dimension of the direct product A×B, whenever A and B are subgroups of π1(X) whose conjugates intersect trivially. For instance, this assumption is satisfied whenever A and B are complementary subgroups of π1(X). This gives computable lower bounds for the topological complexity of many groups of interest (including semidirect products, pure braid groups, certain link groups, and Higman’s acyclic four-generator group), which in some cases improve upon the standard lower bounds in terms of zerodivisors cup-length. Our results illustrate an intimate relationship between the topological complexity of an aspherical space and the subgroup structure of its fundamental group.

Bounds on First Reformulated Zagreb Index of Graph
The first reformulated Zagreb index $EM_1(G)$ of a simple graph $G$ is defined as the sum of the terms $(d_u+d_v-2)^2$ over all edges $uv$ of $G .$ In this paper, the various upper and lower bounds for the first reformulated Zagreb index of a connected graph interms of other topological indices are obtained.

متن کاملNEW METHODS FOR CONSTRUCTING GENERALIZED GROUPS, TOPOLOGICAL GENERALIZED GROUPS, AND TOP SPACES
The purpose of this paper is to introduce new methods for constructing generalized groups, generalized topological groups and top spaces. We study some properties of these structures and present some relative concrete examples. Moreover, we obtain generalized groups by using of Hilbert spaces and tangent spaces of Lie groups, separately.
متن کاملBoundedness of linear order-homomorphisms in $L$-topological vector spaces
A new definition of boundedness of linear order-homomorphisms (LOH)in $L$-topological vector spaces is proposed. The new definition iscompared with the previous one given by Fang [The continuity offuzzy linear order-homomorphism, J. Fuzzy Math. 5 (4) (1997)829$-$838]. In addition, the relationship between boundedness andcontinuity of LOHs is discussed. Finally, a new uniform boundednessprincipl...
