Evans et al. [1] proved the subadditivity of the mutual information in the broadcasting on tree model with binary vertex labels and symmetric edge channels. They raised the question of whether such subadditivity extends to loopy graphs in some appropriate ...
Given two graphs H and F, the maximum possible number of copies of H in an F-free graph on n vertices is denoted by ex(n, H, F). We investigate the function ex(n, H, kF), where kF denotes k vertex disjoint copies of a fixed graph F. Our results include cas ...
It is shown that fora constant t is an element of N, every simple topological graph on n vertices has 0(n) edges if the graph has no two sets of t edges such that every edge in one set is disjoint from all edges of the other set (i.e., the complement of th ...
This thesis is devoted to the understanding of topological graphs. We consider the following four problems: 1. A \emph{simple topological graph} is a graph drawn in the plane so that its edges are represented by continuous arcs with the property that any t ...
We study some variants of Conway’s thrackle conjecture. A tangle is a graph drawn in the plane such that its edges are represented by continuous arcs, and any two edges share precisely one point, which is either a common endpoint or an interior point at wh ...
Let G = (V, E) be a graph with n vertices and m >= 4n edges drawn in the plane. The celebrated Crossing Lemma states that G has at least Omega(m(3)/n(2)) pairs of crossing edges; or equivalently, there is an edge that crosses Omega(m(2)/n(2)) other edges. ...
