A new class of Ornstein transformations with singular spectrum
It is shown that for any family of probability measures in Ornstein type
constructions the corresponding transformation has almost surely a singular
spectrum. This is a new generalization of Bourgain's theorem, the same result
is proved for Rudolph's construction.Comment: 200
Identification, location-domination and metric dimension on interval and permutation graphs. II. Algorithms and complexity
We consider the problems of finding optimal identifying codes, (open) locating-dominating sets and resolving sets (denoted Identifying Code, (Open) Open Locating-Dominating Set and Metric Dimension) of an interval or a permutation graph. In these problems, one asks to distinguish all vertices of a graph by a subset of the vertices, using either the neighbourhood within the solution set or the distances to the solution vertices. Using a general reduction for this class of problems, we prove that the decision problems associated to these four notions are NP-complete, even for interval graphs of diameter 2 and permutation graphs of diameter 2. While Identifying Code and (Open) Locating-Dominating Set are trivially fixed-parameter-tractable when parameterized by solution size, it is known that in the same setting Metric Dimension is W[2]-hard. We show that for interval graphs, this parameterization of Metric Dimension is fixed-parameter-tractable
Characterizing extremal digraphs for identifying codes and extremal cases of Bondy's theorem on induced subsets
An identifying code of a (di)graph is a dominating subset of the
vertices of such that all distinct vertices of have distinct
(in)neighbourhoods within . In this paper, we classify all finite digraphs
which only admit their whole vertex set in any identifying code. We also
classify all such infinite oriented graphs. Furthermore, by relating this
concept to a well known theorem of A. Bondy on set systems we classify the
extremal cases for this theorem
An improved lower bound for (1,<=2)-identifying codes in the king grid
We call a subset of vertices of a graph a -identifying
code if for all subsets of vertices with size at most , the sets
are distinct. The concept of
identifying codes was introduced in 1998 by Karpovsky, Chakrabarty and Levitin.
Identifying codes have been studied in various grids. In particular, it has
been shown that there exists a -identifying code in the king grid
with density 3/7 and that there are no such identifying codes with density
smaller than 5/12. Using a suitable frame and a discharging procedure, we
improve the lower bound by showing that any -identifying code of
the king grid has density at least 47/111
A glimpse into Thurston's work
We present an overview of some significant results of Thurston and their
impact on mathematics. The final version of this paper will appear as Chapter 1
of the book "In the tradition of Thurston: Geometry and topology", edited by K.
