Unlike the ordinary chromatic number, the list chromatic number necessarilygrows with the average degree. Indeed, Alon (2000) proved it grows with thelogarithm of the average degree. Recently, the same has been shown to betrue for uniform hypergraphs, by means of the 'container method': we sketchhow this works. The question then arises as to the...

Convolutional neural networks (CNN’s) are widely used in deep learning. The Lipschitz bound is important in the study of stability of CNN’s and computation of the Lipschitz bound is needed for generative networks. We give a general framework for CNN’s and prove that the Lipschitz bound of a CNN can be determined by solving a linear program...
