Let A be a singular symmetric matrix with rank r whose underlying graph is a tree. It is known that the number of Parter vertices of A is at most r−1. We prove that when r is odd this number is at most r−2. We characterize the trees where these bounds are achieved.CMA - Centro de Matemática e AplicaçõesDM - Departamento de MatemáticaRUNFonseca, AméliaMestre, ÂngelaMohammadian, AliPerdigão, CecíliaTorres, Maria Manuel2022-11-18T01:31:48Z2021-022021-02-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/132651eng0012-365XPURE: 26684081https://doi.org/10.1016/j.disc.2020.112198info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T05:11:19Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/132651Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:47:32.956339Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
