Autoformalizing Argumentative Material Inferences

Xin Quan, Reto Gubelmann, André Freitas

Natural language arguments are compelling before they are formally explicit. A premise supports a claim through defeasible warrants, background commitments, and exception conditions that the text leaves implicit. However, formal verification requires the op...

Beyond Sendov's conjecture: the quadratic Tang--Zhang inequality

For a finite simple graph G, let alpha(G) denote its independence number and let l_avg(G) = (1 / |V(G)|) sum_{v in V(G)} alpha(G[N_G(v)]) be the average independence number of its open neighbourhoods. Written on the Wall II Conjecture 194 asserts that every...

Nonexistence of a Leech Tree of Order 18: A Computer-Assisted Proof

Maseeh Ghodsi

A Leech tree of order $n$ is a tree with positive integral edge weights whose $n(n-1)/2$ pairwise weighted distances are precisely $1,2,\ldots,n(n-1)/2$. This paper gives a computer-assisted proof that no Leech tree of order $18$ exists. The argument has th...
