A graph G is a k-dot product graph if there exists a vector labelling u : V (G)→ Rk such that u(i)Tu(j) ≥ 1 if and only if ij ∈ E(G). Fiduccia, Scheinerman, Trenk and Zito [4] asked whether every planar graph is a 3-dot product graph. We show that the answer is “no”. On the other hand, every planar graph is a 4-dot product graph. We also answer the corresponding questions for planar graphs of p...

Although lactic acidosis can be fatal, current evidence indicates that any risk associated with metformin itself is minimal. Indeed, a recent systematic review of metformin use in type 2 d...
