Early initiation of breastfeeding was associated with a marked reduction of the rate of diarrhea throughout the first 6 months of life, possibly because of the salutary effects of human colostrum. These data highlight the need for interventions to encourage early initiation of breastfeeding in less developed settings.
In this paper, we conclude the calculation of the domination number of all
$n\times m$ grid graphs. Indeed, we prove Chang's conjecture saying that for
every $16\le n\le m$, $\gamma(G_{n,m})=\lfloor\frac{(n+2)(m+2)}{5}\rfloor -4$.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figure
International audienceWe define NLC Fk to be the restriction of the class of graphs NLC k , where relabelling functions are exclusively taken from a set F of functions from {1,...,k} into {1,...,k}. We characterize the sets of functions F for which NLC Fk is well-quasi-ordered by the induced subgraph relation ≤ i . Precisely, these sets F are those which satisfy that for every f,g∈F , we have Im(f ∘ g) = Im(f) or Im(g ∘ f) = Im(g). To obtain this, we show that words (or trees) on F are well-quasi-ordered by a relation slightly more constrained than the usual subword (or subtree) relation. A class of graphs is n-well-quasi-ordered if the collection of its vertex-labellings into n colors forms a well-quasi-order under ≤ i , where ≤ i respects labels. Pouzet (C R Acad Sci, Paris Sér A-B 274:1677-1680, 1972) conjectured that a 2-well-quasi-ordered class closed under induced subgraph is in fact n-well-quasi-ordered for every n. A possible approach would be to characterize the 2-well-quasi-ordered classes of graphs. In this respect, we conjecture that such a class is always included in some well-quasi-ordered NLC Fk for some family F . This would imply Pouzet's conjecture
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
