Enumeration of spanning subgraphs with degree constraints

David G. Wagner

For a finite undirected multigraph G=(V,E) and functions f,g:V-->\NN, let N_f^g(G,j) denote the number of (f,g)-factors of G with exactly j edges. The Heilmann-Lieb Theorem implies…

Remarks on one combinatorial application of the Aleksandrov-Fenchel inequalities

David G. Wagner

In 1981, Stanley applied the Aleksandrov-Fenchel inequalities to prove a logarithmic concavity theorem for regular matroids. Using ideas from electrical network theory we prove a g…

Correction to a theorem of Schoenberg

Carl Johan Ragnarsson, Wesley Wai Suen, David G. Wagner

A well-known theorem of Schoenberg states that if f(z) generates a PF_r sequence then 1/f(-z) generates a PF_r sequence. We give two counterexamples which show that this is not tru…

Rank three matroids are Rayleigh

David G. Wagner

A Rayleigh matroid is one which satisfies a set of inequalities analogous to the Rayleigh monotonicity property of linear resistive electrical networks. We show that every matroid…

Rayleigh Matroids

Y. -B. Choe, D. G. Wagner

Motivated by a property of linear resistive electrical networks, we introduce the class of Rayleigh matroids. This is a subclass of the balanced matroids introduced by Feder and Mi…

Homogeneous multivariate polynomials with the half-plane property

Young-Bin Choe, James G. Oxley, Alan D. Sokal +1

A polynomial P in n complex variables is said to have the "half-plane property" (or Hurwitz property) if it is nonvanishing whenever all the variables lie in the open right half-pl…
