Brouwer has confirmed by computation that the conjecture is valid for all graphs with at most 10 vertices. [1] It is also known that the conjecture is valid for any number of vertices if t = 1, 2, n − 1, and n. For certain types of graphs, Brouwer's conjecture is known to be valid for all t and for any number of vertices
The Brouwer–Haemers graph has several related algebraic constructions. One of the simplest is as a degree-4 generalized Paley graph: it can be defined by making a vertex for each element in the finite field and an edge for every two elements that differ by a fourth power. [1] [2]
The Clebsch graph is an srg(16, 5, 0, 2). The Shrikhande graph is an srg(16, 6, 2, 2) which is not a distance-transitive graph. The n × n square rook's graph, i.e., the line graph of a balanced complete bipartite graph K n,n, is an srg(n 2, 2n − 2, n − 2, 2). The parameters for n = 4 coincide with those of the Shrikhande graph, but the two ...
A pair of graphs are said to be cospectral mates if they have the same spectrum, but are non-isomorphic. The smallest pair of cospectral mates is {K 1,4, C 4 ∪ K 1}, comprising the 5-vertex star and the graph union of the 4-vertex cycle and the single-vertex graph [1]. The first example of cospectral graphs was reported by Collatz and ...
The Schauder fixed-point theorem is an extension of the Brouwer fixed-point theorem to topological vector spaces, which may be of infinite dimension.It asserts that if is a nonempty convex closed subset of a Hausdorff topological vector space and is a continuous mapping of into itself such that () is contained in a compact subset of , then has a fixed point.
This is a consequence of the n = 2 case of Brouwer's theorem applied to the continuous map that assigns to the coordinates of every point of the crumpled sheet the coordinates of the point of the flat sheet immediately beneath it. Take an ordinary map of a country, and suppose that that map is laid out on a table inside that country.
The stable homotopy category, or homotopy category of (CW) spectra is defined to be the category whose objects are spectra and whose morphisms are homotopy classes of maps between spectra. Many other definitions of spectrum, some appearing very different, lead to equivalent stable homotopy categories.
Luitzen Egbertus Jan "Bertus" Brouwer [a] (27 February 1881 – 2 December 1966) was a Dutch mathematician and philosopher who worked in topology, set theory, measure theory and complex analysis.
