For each vector norm ||x||v, a matrix A ? Cmxn has its operator norm ||A||?v = maxx?O ||Ax||?/||x||v. If A is nonsingular, we can define the condition number of A ? Cnxn as P(A) = ||A||vv ||A-1||vv. If A is singular, the condition number of matrix A ? Cmxn may be defined as P+(A)=||A||?v ||A+||v?. Let U be the set of the whole self-dual norms. It is shown that for a singular matrix A ? Cmxn, there is no finite upper bound of P+(A), while ||.|| varies on U. On the other hand, it is shown that inf ||.||? U ||A||?v ||A+||v? = ?1(A)/?r(A), where ?1(A) and ?r(A) are the largest and smallest nonzero singular values of A, respectively.

LetGbe a simple graph. The incidence energy (IEfor short) ofGis defined as the sum of the singular values of the incidence matrix. In this paper, a new upper bound forIEof graphs in terms of the maximum degree is given. Meanwhile, bounds forIEof the line graph of a semiregular graph and the paraline graph of a regular graph are obtained.

This chapter focuses on the metric geometry of Teichmüller space. It first explains how one can think of Teich(Sɡ) as the space of complex structures on Sɡ. To this end, the chapter defines quasiconformal maps between surfaces and presents a solution to the resulting Teichmüller's extremal problem. It also considers the correspondence between complex structures and hyperbolic structures, along with the Teichmüller mapping, Teichmüller metric, and the proof of Teichmüller's uniqueness and existence theorems. The fundamental connection between Teichmüller's theorems, holomorphic quadratic differentials, and measured foliations is discussed as well. Finally, the chapter describes the Grötzsch's problem, whose solution is tied to the proof of Teichmüller's uniqueness theorem.

Digital Watermarking is a technology, to facilitate the authentication, copyright protection and Security of digital media. The objective of developing a robust watermarking technique is to incorporate the maximum possible robustness without compromising with the transparency. Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) using Firefly Algorithm provides this objective of an optimal robust watermarking technique. Multiple scaling factors are used to embed the watermark image into the host by multiplying these scaling factors with the Singular Values (SV) of the host image. Firefly Algorithm is used to optimize the modified host image to achieve the highest possible robustness and transparency. This approach can significantly increase the quality of watermarked image and provide more robustness to the embedded watermark against various attacks such as noise, geometric attacks, filtering attacks etc.
