On the cooling number of the generalized Petersen graphs by Kai An Sim, Kok Bin Wong

“…In this paper, we showed that the cooling number of a classic cubic graph, the generalized Petersen graphs $ P(n, k) $, is $ \left\lfloor \frac{n}{2k} \right\rfloor + \left\lfloor \frac{k+1}{2} \right\rfloor +O(1) $ by the use of vertex-transitivity and combinatorial arguments. Particularly, we determined the exact values for CL$ (P(n, 1)) $ and CL$ (P(n, 2)) $.…”

Dimension reduction for maximum matchings and the Fastest Mixing Markov Chain by Jain, Vishesh, Pham, Huy, Vuong, Thuy-Duong

“…Let $G = (V,E)$ be an undirected graph with maximum degree $\Delta $ and vertex conductance $\Psi ^*(G)$. We show that there exists a symmetric, stochastic matrix $P$, with off-diagonal entries supported on $E$, whose spectral gap $\gamma ^*(P)$ satisfies \[ \Psi ^*(G)^{2}/\log \Delta \lesssim \gamma ^*(P) \lesssim \Psi ^*(G). \] Our bound is optimal under the Small Set Expansion Hypothesis, and answers a question of Olesker-Taylor and Zanetti, who obtained such a result with $\log \Delta $ replaced by $\log |V|$.In order to obtain our result, we show how to embed a negative-type semi-metric $d$ defined on $V$ into a negative-type semi-metric $d^{\prime }$ supported in $\mathbb{R}^{O(\log \Delta )}$, such that the (fractional) matching number of the weighted graph $(V,E,d)$ is approximately equal to that of $(V,E,d^{\prime })$.…”

P2Y Receptors in Synaptic Transmission and Plasticity: Therapeutic Potential in Cognitive Dysfunction by Segundo J. Guzman, Zoltan Gerevich

“…We show that P2Y receptors inhibit the release of neurotransmitters, modulate voltage- and ligand-gated ion channels, and differentially influence the induction of synaptic plasticity in the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum. The findings discussed here may explain how P2Y1 receptor activation during brain injury, hypoxia, inflammation, schizophrenia, or Alzheimer’s disease leads to an impairment of cognitive processes. …”
