In a note by Baker [1], a method is given for getting the limiting connectivity matrix,
B, of a matrix whose entries are Boolean 0's and 1's. Harary [2] suggests determining
An-1 since
An-1 =
An = ··· , where
n is the order of …

s+1)-point, second-degree quadrature formula for integration over an
s-dimensional hyper-rectangle is presented. All but one of the points lie on the surface with weights of opposite sign attached to points on opposite faces …

Given a pair of directed line graphs, the problem of ascertaining whether or not they are isomorphic is one for which no
efficient algorithmic solution is known. Since a straightforward enumerative algorithm might require 40partially …
