Beyond the briscola advantage: a Monte Carlo dominance test for deterministic strategies in two-player Briscola Game
Piero Giacomelli
Briscola is a traditional Italian trick-taking card game whose simplest form is played by two players. Popular folklore credits victory almost entirely to the player who is dealt m…
Expander Evolution Algebras
Piero Giacomelli
We introduce \emph{expander evolution algebras} (EEAs), a class of nonassociative algebras defined over an arbitrary field $\K$ in which the underlying undirected loopless graph of…
Log-Concavity and Infinite Log-Concavity of Linear Recurrent Sequences with Linear Coefficients via Companion Matrix Methods
Piero Giacomelli
We study log-concavity properties of real sequences satisfying a -th order linear recurrence whose coefficients are linear functions of ; the so-called P-re…
The Bollobás--Nikiforov Conjecture for Complete Multipartite Graphs and Dense -Free Graphs
Piero Giacomelli
The Bollobás--Nikiforov conjecture asserts that for any graph with edges and clique number , \[ λ_1^2(G) + λ_2^2(G) \;\leq\; 2\!\left(1 - \frac{1}{ω(G)}\righ…
