Abstract
SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 2243-2259, September 2024. Abstract. Given [math] points [math] on the unit circle in [math] and a number [math], we investigate the minimizers of the functional [math]. While it is known that each of these minimizers is a spanning set for [math], less is known about their number as a function of [math] and [math] especially for relatively small [math]. In this paper we show that there is unique minimum for this functional for all [math] and all odd [math]. In addition, we present some numerical results suggesting the emergence of a phase transition phenomenon for these minimizers. More specifically, for [math] odd, there exists a sequence of points [math] so that a unique (up to some isometries) minimizer exists on each of the subintervals [math].
期刊介绍:
SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics (SIDMA) publishes research papers of exceptional quality in pure and applied discrete mathematics, broadly interpreted. The journal''s focus is primarily theoretical rather than empirical, but the editors welcome papers that evolve from or have potential application to real-world problems. Submissions must be clearly written and make a significant contribution.
Topics include but are not limited to:
properties of and extremal problems for discrete structures
combinatorial optimization, including approximation algorithms
algebraic and enumerative combinatorics
coding and information theory
additive, analytic combinatorics and number theory
combinatorial matrix theory and spectral graph theory
design and analysis of algorithms for discrete structures
discrete problems in computational complexity
discrete and computational geometry
discrete methods in computational biology, and bioinformatics
probabilistic methods and randomized algorithms.
