Minimization

In mathematics, traditional optimization problems are typically expressed in terms of minimization. When we talk about minimizing or maximizing a function, we refer to the maximum and minimum possible values of that function. This can be expressed in ter…

Maxima and Minima

The extreme points of a function are the maximum and the minimum points of the function. A maximum is attained when the function takes the maximum value and a minimum is attained when the function takes the minimum value.

Derivatives

A derivative means a change. Geometrically it can be represented as a line with some steepness. Imagine climbing a mountain which is very steep and 500 meters high. Is it easier to climb? Definitely not! Suppose walking on the road for 500 meters. Which …

Concavity

In calculus, concavity is a descriptor of mathematics that tells about the shape of the graph. It is the parameter that helps to estimate the maximum and minimum value of any of the functions and the concave nature using the graphical method. We use the …

7. [10 marks] Let G = (V,E) be a 3-connected graph. We prove that for every x, y, z Є V, there is a cycle in G on which x, y, and z all lie. (a) First prove that there are two internally disjoint xy-paths Po and P₁. (b) If z is on either Po or P₁, then combining Po and P₁ produces a cycle on which x, y, and z all lie. So assume that z is not on Po and not on P₁. Now prove that there are three paths Qo, Q1, and Q2 such that: ⚫each Qi starts at z; • each Qi ends at a vertex w; that is on Po or on P₁, where wo, w₁, and w₂ are distinct; the paths Qo, Q1, Q2 are disjoint from each other (except at the start vertex 2) and are disjoint from the paths Po and P₁ (except at the end vertices wo, W1, and w₂). (c) Use paths Po, P₁, Qo, Q1, and Q2 to prove that there is a cycle on which x, y, and z all lie. (To do this, notice that two of the w; must be on the same Pj.)
