Let $K_{m}-H$ be the graph obtained from $K_{m}$ by removing the edges set $E(H)$ of the graph $H$ ($H$ is a subgraph of $K_{m}$). We use the symbol $Z_4$ to denote $K_4-P_2.$ A sequence $S$ is potentially $K_{m}-H$-graphical if it has a realization containing a $K_{m}-H$ as a subgraph. Let $\sigma(K_{m}-H, n)$ denote the smallest degree sum such that every $n$-term graphical sequence $S$ with $\sigma(S)\geq \sigma(K_{m}-H, n)$ is potentially $K_{m}-H$-graphical. In this paper, we determine the values of $\sigma (K_{r+1}-U, n)$ for $n\geq 5r+18, r+1 \geq k \geq 7,$ $j \geq 6$ where $U$ is a graph on $k$ vertices and $j$ edges which contains a graph $K_3 \bigcup P_3$ but not contains a cycle on $4$ vertices and not contains $Z_4$.

We explore the tunneling behavior of a quantum particle on a finite graph in the presence of an asymptotically large potential with two or three potential wells. The behavior of the particle is primarily governed by the local spectral symmetry of the graph around the wells. In the case of two wells the behavior is stable in the sense that it can be predicted from a sufficiently large neighborhood of the wells. However in the case of three wells we are able to exhibit examples where the tunneling behavior can be changed significantly by perturbing the graph arbitrarily far from the wells.

Let $K_k$, $C_k$, $T_k$, and $P_{k}$ denote a complete graph on $k$ vertices, a cycle on $k$ vertices, a tree on $k+1$ vertices, and a path on $k+1$ vertices, respectively. Let $K_{m}-H$ be the graph obtained from $K_{m}$ by removing the edges set $E(H)$ of the graph $H$ ($H$ is a subgraph of $K_{m}$). A sequence $S$ is potentially $K_{m}-H$-graphical if it has a realization containing a $K_{m}-H$ as a subgraph. Let $\sigma(K_{m}-H, n)$ denote the smallest degree sum such that every $n$-term graphical sequence $S$ with $\sigma(S)\geq \sigma(K_{m}-H, n)$ is potentially $K_{m}-H$-graphical. In this paper, we determine the values of $\sigma (K_{r+1}-H, n)$ for $n\geq 4r+10, r\geq 3, r+1 \geq k \geq 4$ where $H$ is a graph on $k$ vertices which contains a tree on $4$ vertices but not contains a cycle on $3$ vertices. We also determine the values of $\sigma (K_{r+1}-P_2, n)$ for $n\geq 4r+8, r\geq 3$.

We modify the definition of Ricci curvature of Ollivier of Markov chains on graphs to study the properties of the Ricci curvature of general graphs, Cartesian product of graphs, random graphs, and some special class of graphs.

Let Q be an acyclic quiver and s be a sequence with elements in the vertex set Q_0. We describe an induced sequence of simple (backward) tilting in the bounded derived category D(Q), starting from the standard heart H_Q = modkQ and ending at another heart H_s in D(Q). Then we show that s is a green mutation sequence if and only if every heart in this simple tilting sequence is greater than or equal to HQ[−1]; it is maximal if and only if H_s = H_Q[−1]. This provides a categorical way to understand green mutations. Further, fix a Coxeter element c in the Coxeter group W_Q of Q, which is admissible with respect to the orientation of Q. We prove that the sequence \tilde{w} induced by a c-sortable word w is a green mutation sequence. As a consequence, we obtain a bijection between c-sortable words and finite torsion classes in H_Q. As byproducts, the interpretations of inversions, descents and cover reflections of a c-sortable word w are given in terms of the combinatorics of green mutations.
