Spherical designs from norm-3 shell of integral lattices

Abstract

A set of vectors all of which have a constant (non-zero) norm value in an Euclidean lattice is called a shell of the lattice. Venkov classified strongly perfect lattices of minimum 3 (Réseaux et "designs" sphérique, 2001), whose minimal shell is a spherical 5-design. This note considers the classification of integral lattices whose shells of norm 3 are 5-designs.

Matching Complexes of Outerplanar Graphs

An outerplanar graph is a planar graph that has a planar drawing with all vertices on the unbounded face. The matching complex of a graph is the simplicial complex whose faces are subsets of disjoint edges of the graph. In this paper we prove that the matching complexes of outerplanar graphs are contractible or homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres. This extends known results about trees and polygonal line tilings.

Perfect matchings and $A_α$-spectral radius in 1-binding graphs

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and edge set $E(G)$. For $α\in[0,1)$, we use $A_α(G)$ and $ρ_α(G)$ to denote the $A_α$-matrix and the $A_α$-spectral radius of $G$, respectively. The binding number $\mbox{bind}(G)$ of $G$ is defined by $\mbox{bind}(G)=\min\left\{\frac{|N_G(X)|}{|X|}:\emptyset\neq X\subseteq V(G),N_G(X)\neq V(G)\right\}$. If $\mbox{bind}(G)\geq1$, then $G$ is called 1-binding. A perfect matching in $G$ is a set of nonadjacent edges covering every vertex of $G$. Tutte proved that a graph $G$ of even order has a perfect matching if and only if $o(G-S)\leq|S|$ holds for every $S\subseteq V(G)$ [W. Tutte, The factorization of linear graphs, J. Lond. Math. Soc. 22 (1947) 107--111]. In this paper, we use Tutte's result to prove that a connected 1-binding graph $G$ of even order $n$ with $n\geq n(α)$ has a perfect matching unless $G=K_1\vee(K_{n-5}\cup K_3\cup K_1)$ if $ρ_α(G)\geqρ_α(K_1\vee(K_{n-5}\cup K_3\cup K_1))$, where $n(α)$ is defined as follows: $n(α)=\max\{18,\frac{2+8α}{1-2α}\}$ if $α\in[0,\frac{1}{2})$, and $n(α)=18$ if $α=\frac{1}{2}$.

Turán number of a matching and a Berge triangle

For a fixed graph $G$, an $r$-uniform hypergraph is said to contain a Berge-$G$ if there exists a bijection $f\colon E(G)\to E(\mathcal{H})$ for some subhypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ such that $e\subseteq f(e)$ for every $e\in E(G)$. Motivated by Alon and Frankl's study of Turán problems under bounded matching constraints, we investigate the maximum number of edges in $r$-uniform Berge-$K_3$-free hypergraphs with matching number at most~$s$. We determine the exact Turán numbers for the cases $r=3$ and $r=4$. For $r=3$ and $n \geq 3 s$, we prove that every $n$-vertex Berge- $K_3$-free 3-graph with matching number $s$ has at most $s(n-2 s)$ edges, and we characterize the unique extremal hypergraph attaining equality. For $r=4$ and $n \geq 4 s$, the maximum number of edges is $s\lfloor(n-2 s) / 2\rfloor$, except for the exceptional case $s=1$ and $n \equiv 1(\bmod 4)$, in which the bound is $(n-1) / 2$. As a corollary, our results recover the classical theorem of Győri on Berge-$K_3$-free hypergraphs.
