Let D be a digraph, V (D) and A(D) will denote the sets of vertices and arcs of D, respectively. A (k, l)-kernel N of D is a k-independent set of vertices (if u, v ∈ N then d(u, v), d(v, u) ≥ k) and l-absorbent (if u ∈ V (D) − N then there exists v ∈ N such that d(u, v) ≤ l). A k-kernel is a (k, k − 1)-kernel. A digraph D is cyclically k-partite if there exists a partition {Vi} i=0 of V (D) suc...

The modified bubble-sort graph of dimension n is the Cayley graph of Sn generated by n cyclically adjacent transpositions. In the present paper, it is shown that the automorphism group of the modified bubble sort graph of dimension n is Sn×D2n, for all n ≥ 5. Thus, a complete structural description of the automorphism group of the modified bubble-sort graph is obtained. A similar direct product...

We derive reciprocal integral relations between phases and amplitude moduli for a class of wave functions that are cyclically varying in time. The relations imply that changes of a certain kind (e.g. not arising from the dynamic phase) obligate changes in the other. Numerical results indicate the approximate validity of the relationships for arbitrarily (non-cyclically) varying states in the ad...

The North American model of resource allocation in professional sports leagues is adapted for English (association) football. The theoretical relationship between revenue and competitive balance is shown to be robust with respect to changes in teams’ objectives and labour market conditions. Empirical revenue functions are reported for 1926-1999. These indicate a shift in the composition of dema...

‎The excessive index of a bridgeless cubic graph $G$ is the least integer $k$‎, ‎such that $G$ can be covered by $k$ perfect matchings‎. ‎An equivalent form of Fulkerson conjecture (due to Berge) is that every bridgeless‎ ‎cubic graph has excessive index at most five‎. ‎Clearly‎, ‎Petersen graph is a cyclically 4-edge-connected snark with excessive index at least 5‎, ‎so Fouquet and Vanherpe as...

In the recent literature, the connection between maximal monotone operators and the Fitzpatrick function is investigated. Subsequently, this relation has been extended to maximal monotone bifunctions and their Fitzpatrick transform. In this paper we generalize some of these results to maximal n-cyclically monotone and maximal cyclically monotone bifunctions, by introducing and studying the Fitz...

In the present paper we will prove that every partial latin square L = (lij) of odd order n with 2 cyclically generated diagonals (li+t,j+t = lij+t if lij is not empty; with calculations modulo n) can be cyclically completed.

Tutte’s 5-Flow Conjecture from 1954 states that every bridgeless graph has a nowhere-zero 5-flow. In 2004, Kochol proved that the conjecture is equivalent to its restriction on cyclically 6-edge connected cubic graphs. We prove that every cyclically 6-edge-connected cubic graph with oddness at most 4 has a nowhere-zero 5-flow.

The present paper discusses the heterogeneity of apartment market. For this purpose, we have developed model for mass valuation apartments in Republic Slovenia. construction is based on generalised additive approach. In paper, development presented. experimental part, analysis results two models performed. dependent variable (the price an apartment) distributed according to Gaussian and gamma d...
