### Chromatic numbers for coloring-constrained graphs

I am interested in any and all articles about chromatic numbers applying to constrained colorings of a graph. For example, if a graph must be (properly) colored so that there is a 2-color path ...

### Finding non convex functions satisfying a weak form of convexity, without the axiom of choice

If a real-valued function $f$ over reals satisfies $$(1) \; \; \; f({x+y\over2})\le {f(x)+f(y)\over2},$$and it is continuous, then it is not hard to see that $f$ is indeed convex. On the other ...

### Complexity theory and closed form formulas in analysis

My question concerns definitions of "closed form" solutions. In hamiltonian systems this is closely related to complete integrability. In this context closed form can refers to having $(q(t),p(t))$ ...

### $\mathsf{GCD}$s of random linear form

Given $a,b\in\Bbb N_{<M}$ where $M\in\Bbb N_{>\exp(18)}$ is arbitrary with $(a,b)=1$, the probability that $\mathsf{gcd}(ax_1+by_1,ax_2+by_2)=1$ where $x_1,x_2,y_1,y_2\in\Bbb N_{>\ln M}$ is ...

### Proving equality of the union over a family of sets? [on hold]

Click here for problem So I know that this probably uses a two part proof where I have to prove it both ways, but I don't see how its even true in the first place. If we let x belong to the left hand ...

### Planar triangulations for which all distinct 4-colorings consist of exactly 6 Kempe chains

Are there any internally 6-connected planar triangulations other than the icosahedron all of whose distinct 4-colorings consist of exactly 6 Kempe chains, one for each of the 6 color-pairs? Addendum: ...

### Spectral properties of the Laplace operator and topological properties

Suppose that $M$ is a closed Riemannian manifold: one can construct the so called Laplace-Beltrami operator on $M$. Its spectrum contains some information of the underlying manifold: for example its ...

### Boolean-Valued Models: Why is $\| x=y \| \cdot \| \phi(x) \| \leq \| \phi(y) \|$?

Let $B$ be a complete Boolean algebra. Jech defines a Boolean-valued model $\mathfrak{A}$ of the language of set theory to consist of a Boolean universe $A$ and functions of two variables with values ...

### Show existence maximal clique of order $s$ in an multigraph where each vertex is colored with a set of colors

You are given a multigraph $G$ with $n$ vertices as follows: $V := (v_1, v_2, \dots ,v_n)$ $C := \{c_1, c_2, \dots\}$, be an infinite set of colors. $f: V \rightarrow \mathbb{P}_{\le m}(C)$, a ...

### VC dimension of infinite cones

What is the VC dimension of infinite $d$-dimensional cones? ( single cones not double). I would say $2d + 1$ or $O(d^2)$ Does anybody have any reference or ideas?

### Probability distribution associated with total divisors of an integer

Is there a generalization to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erd%C5%91s%E2%80%93Kac_theorem which gives distribution function for $$\omega(n)=\big|\{d\in\mathsf{prime}:d|n\}\big|$$ where ...

### An interpretation for filters of subspaces in Banach spaces

Let $X$ be a separable infinite-dimensional (real or complex) Banach space. Call a collection $\mathcal{F}$ of closed subspaces of $X$ a filter if it is nonempty, does not contain $\{0\}$, is closed ...

### Product-like structures on spheres

For $i=1,2$, let $j_i$ denote the inclusion of $S^n$ into the product $S^n \times S^n$ as the $i^{\text{th}}$ factor. I would very much like to know the answer to the following question, which seems ...

### Arithmetically equivalent number fields and Langlands Program

Two (number) fields are arithmetically equivalent if their Dedekind zeta functions are the same. It is known that any two arithmetically equivalent fields are not necessarily isomorphic; Prasad ...

### Is there a shorter proof of Fermat's Last Theorem for $n=4$ than that of infinite descent? [on hold]

Out of curiosity, i'm wondering whether there exists a shorter proof of FLT for $n=4$ with respect to the one of infinite descent ? The Wikipedia article on this subject states that more proofs were ...

### How are the real-space RG transformations defined?

I'm reading Shang-keng Ma's book Modern theory of critical phenomena, and I'm a bit confused as to how the real-space RG transformations are defined. Ma basically says that these transformations are ...

### What is known about Lie groups with positive(strictly) curvature?

If we consider $G$ a Lie group with left invariant riemannian metric its sectional curvature is nonnegative, when this metric is positive? I thought a little about and only found $SU(2)=S³$. In ...

### Infinitesimally small elements in extensions of models of model-complete theories

Suppose that we have a first order language $\mathcal{L}$ that extends the language of rings. Let $T$ a be a topological $\mathcal{L}$-theory of fields in the sense of Pillay.. this means that not ...

### Spaces of Killing spinors for different orientation

Simply put, I want to understand how a change of orientation on a Riemannian spin manifold can change the space of Killing spinors. To be more precise: Let $M$ be a spin manifold (i.e. the first and ...

### Which commutative rings have irreducible (maximal) spectra?

Does there exist any term (or, maybe, a "description"?) for commutative unital noetherian rings such that their Jacobson ideals are prime (and so, their maximal spectra are irreducible)? What is the ...
