Abstract

A short survey on the properties of four graphs constructed in $\{0, 1\}^n$ Boolean space is presented. Flexible activation function of an artificial neuron in a sparse distributed memory model is defined on the basis of the Ugly duckling theorem. Cotan Laplacian on 2-face triangulation of $n$-cube has degenerate spectrum of eigenvalues corresponding to the Hamming distance distribution of $\{0, 1\}^n$ space. Degenerate spectrum of eigenvalues of the cotan Laplacian defined on the graph comprising $2^n$ 2-face triangulated $n$-cubes sharing common origin includes all integers from 0 to 3$n$, without the eigenvalue of 3$n$-1 (multiplicities of the same eigenvalues form A038717 OEIS sequence), while the multiplicities of the same eigenvalues $[-n\sqrt{2}, n\sqrt{2}]$ of the adjacency matrix of $2^n$-cube form trinomial triangle. The distance matrix of this graph, providing further OEIS sequences, as well as its relation with Buckminster Fuller vector equilibrium is also discussed.

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
