On the polycirculant conjecture

Abstract

In the paper the foundation of the $k$-orbit theory is developed. The theory opens a new simple way to the investigation of groups and multidimensional symmetries. The relations between combinatorial symmetry properties of a $k$-orbit and its automorphism group are found. It is found the local property of a $k$-orbit. The difference between 2-closed group and $m$-closed group for $m>2$ is discovered. It is explained the specific property of Petersen graph automorphism group $n$-orbit. It is shown that any non-trivial primitive group contains a transitive imprimitive subgroup and as a result it is proved that the automorphism group of a vertex transitive graph (2-closed group) contains a regular element (polycirculant conjecture). Using methods of the $k$-orbit theory, it is considered different possibilities of permutation representation of a finite group and shown that the most informative, relative to describing of the structure of a finite group, is the permutation representation of the lowest degree. Using this representation it is obtained a simple proof of the W. Feit, J.G. Thompson theorem: Solvability of groups of odd order. It is described the enough simple structure of lowest degree representation of finite groups and found a way to constructing of the simple full invariant of a finite group. To the end, using methods of $k$-orbit theory, it is obtained one of possible polynomial solutions of the graph isomorphism problem.

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.
