| | For fixed integers $ r > 0$, and odd $ g$, a Moore graph is an $ r$-regular graph of girth $ g$ which has the minimum number of vertices $ n$ among all such graphs with the same regularity and girth. (Recall, A the girth of a graph is the length of its shortest cycle, and it's regular if all its vertices have the same degree) Problem (Hoffman-Singleton): Find a useful constraint on the relationship between $ n$ and $ r$ for Moore graphs of girth $ 5$ and degree $ r$.

| | Selected Exercises # 5.A # 12. Define $ T \in \mathcal L(\mathcal P_4(\mathbf{R})) $ by $$ (Tp)(x) = xp'(x) $$ for all $ x \in \mathbf{R} $. Find all eigenvalues and eigenvectors of $ T $. Observe that, if $ p = a_0 + a_1 x + a_2 x^2 + a_3 x^3 + a_4 x^4 $, then $$ x p'(x) = a_1 x + 2 a_2 x^2 + 3 a_3 x^3 + 4 a_4 x^4.

| | This post is mainly devoted to a probabilistic proof of a famous theorem due to Schoenberg on radial positive definite functions. Let us begin with a general notion: we say that \( {K:\mathbb{R}^d\times\mathbb{R}^d\rightarrow\mathbb{R}} \) is a positive definite kernel when \[ \forall n\geq1, \forall x_1,\ldots,x_n\in\mathbb{R}^d, \forall c\in\mathbb{C}^n, \quad\sum_{i=1}^n\sum_{j=1}^nc_iK(x_i,x_j)\bar{c}_j\geq0. \] When \( {K} \) is symmetric, i.e. \( {K(x,y)=K(y,x)} \) for...
