Abstract
Consider the set of positive integers representing the number of spanning trees in simple graphs with n vertices. How quickly can this set grow as a function of n? In this talk, we discuss a proof of the exponential growth of this set, which resolves an open problem of Sedlacek from 1966. The proof uses a connection with continued fractions and advances towards Zaremba’s conjecture in number theory. This is joint work with Alex Kontorovich and Igor Pak. This talk is intended for general audience.相關檔案:Talk_1150331.pdf
