AbstractThe determinant Hosoya triangle, is a triangular array where the entries are the determinants of two-by-two Fibonacci matrices. The determinant Hosoya triangle mod 2 gives rise to three infinite families of graphs, that are formed by complete product (join) of (the union of) two complete graphs with an empty graph. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a graph from these families to be integral.Some features of these graphs are: they are integral cographs, all graphs have at most five distinct eigenvalues, all graphs are either d-regular graphs with d =2, 4, 6, . . . or almost-regular graphs, and some of them are Laplacian integral. Finally we extend some of these results to the Hosoya triangle.

For a graph [Formula: see text] and a subgraph [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] an [Formula: see text]-decomposition of [Formula: see text] is a partition of the edge set of [Formula: see text] into subsets [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] such that each [Formula: see text] induces a graph isomorphic to [Formula: see text] It is proved that the necessary conditions are sufficient for the existence of an [Formula: see text]-decomposition of the graph [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is any simple connected unicyclic graph of order five, × denotes the tensor product of graphs and [Formula: see text] denotes the multiplicity of the edges. In fact, using the above characterization, a necessary and sufficient condition for the graph [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] to admit an [Formula: see text]-decomposition is obtained. Similar results for the complete graphs and complete multipartite graphs are proved in: [J.-C. Bermond et al. [Formula: see text]-decomposition of [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] has four vertices or less, Discrete Math. 19 (1977) 113–120, J.-C. Bermond et al.

This paper introduces an auditor reliability framework that repositions the role of auditor independence in the accounting profession. The framework is motivated in part by widespread confusion about independence and the auditing profession's continuing problems with managing independence and inspiring public confidence. We use philosophical, theoretical, and professional arguments to argue that the public interest will be best served by reprioritizing professional and ethical objectives to establish reliability in fact and appearance as the cornerstone of the profession, rather than relationship-based independence in fact and appearance. This revised framework requires three foundation elements to control subjectivity in auditors' judgments and decisions: independence, integrity, and expertise. Each element is a necessary but not sufficient condition for maximizing objectivity. Objectivity, in turn, is a necessary and sufficient condition for achieving and maintaining reliability in fact and appearance.

Necessary And Sufficient

The Kantian account of political authority holds that the state is a necessary and sufficient condition of our freedom. We cannot be free outside the state, Kantians argue, because any attempt to have the “acquired rights” necessary for our freedom implicates us in objectionable relations of dependence on private judgment. Only in the state can this problem be overcome. But it is not clear how mere institutions could make the necessary difference, and contemporary Kantians have not offered compelling explanations. A detailed analysis is presented of the problems Kantians identify with the state of nature and the objections they face in claiming that the state overcomes them. A response is sketched on behalf of Kantians. The key idea is that under state institutions, a person can make claims of acquired right without presupposing that she is by nature exceptional in her capacity to bind others.

Lorentz Boosts

In this paper, Lorentz boosts and Wigner rotations are considered from a (complexified) quaternionic point of view. It is demonstrated that, for a suitably defined self-adjoint complex quaternionic 4-velocity, pure Lorentz boosts can be phrased in terms of the quaternion square root of the relative 4-velocity connecting the two inertial frames. Straightforward computations then lead to quite explicit and relatively simple algebraic formulae for the composition of 4-velocities and the Wigner angle. The Wigner rotation is subsequently related to the generic non-associativity of the composition of three 4-velocities, and a necessary and sufficient condition is developed for the associativity to hold. Finally, the authors relate the composition of 4-velocities to a specific implementation of the Baker–Campbell–Hausdorff theorem. As compared to ordinary 4×4 Lorentz transformations, the use of self-adjoint complexified quaternions leads, from a computational view, to storage savings and more rapid computations, and from a pedagogical view to to relatively simple and explicit formulae.
