For a given irrational number, we consider the properties of best rational approximations of given parities. There are three different kinds of rational numbers according to the parity of the numerator and denominator, say odd/odd, even/odd, and odd/even rational numbers. We study algorithms to find best approximations by rational numbers of given parities and compare these algorithms with continued fraction expansions.

Given a graph on vertices with edges, each of unit resistance, how small can the average resistance between pairs of vertices be? There are two very plausible extremal constructions — graphs like a star, and graphs which are close to regular — with the transition between them occurring when the average degree is 3. However, in this paper, we show that there are significantly better constructions for a range of average degree including average degree near 3. A key idea is to link this question to a analogous question about rooted graphs — namely ‘which rooted graph minimises the average resistance to the root?’. The rooted case is much simpler to analyse that the unrooted, and the one of the main results of this paper is that the two cases are asymptotically equivalent.
