An orthogonal coloring of a graph G is a pair {c1, c2} of proper colorings of G, having the property that if two vertices are colored with the same color in c1, then they must hav...
We prove the following best possible result. Let k 2 be an integer and G be a graph of order n with minimum degree at least k. Assume n 8k - 16 for even n and n 6k-13 for odd n...
Abstract. We generalize Ehrhart's idea ([Eh]) of counting lattice points in dilated rational polytopes: Given a rational simplex, that is, an n-dimensional polytope with n + 1...
Let m and n be positive integers, and let R = (r1, . . . , rm) and S = (s1, . . . , sn) be non-negative integral vectors. Let A(R, S) be the set of all m
Abstract. Consider, for a permutation Sk, the number F(n, ) of permutations in Sn which avoid as a subpattern. The conjecture of Stanley and Wilf is that for every there is a c...
We show that if P(x) is a polynomial with nondecreasing, nonnegative coefficients, then the coefficient sequence of P(x + 1) is unimodal. Applications are given.
An asymptotic estimate is given for the coefficients of products of large powers of generating functions. This theorem and another local limit theorem which is useful for conditio...
