It has also been referred to as the Nashville Colony, after the Tennessee city where the effort originated, the Texas Association, the Upper Colony, and Leftwich's Grant, named after early colonizer Robert Leftwich. The eventual contract spread over an area that includes all or part of thirty present-day counties in Texas. Counties within Robertson's Colony Thirty present-day counties were part of the colony. The original 1824 contract secured by Robert Leftwich included all or part of seventeen present-day Texas counties.

Robertson Graph
In the mathematical field of graph theory, the Robertson graph or (4,5)-cage, is a 4-regular undirected graph with 19 vertices and 38 edges named after Neil Robertson. The Robertson graph is the unique (4,5)-cage graph and was discovered by Robertson in 1964. As a cage graph, it is the smallest 4-regular graph with girth 5. It has chromatic number 3, chromatic index 5, diameter 3, radius 3 and is both 4- vertex-connected and 4- edge-connected. It has book thickness 3 and queue number 2.Jessica Wolz, ''Engineering Linear Layouts with SAT''. Master Thesis, University of Tübingen, 2018 The Robertson graph is also a Hamiltonian graph which possesses distinct directed Hamiltonian cycles. The Robertson graph is one of the smallest graphs with cop number 4.Turcotte, J., & Yvon, S. (2021). 4-cop-win graphs have at least 19 vertices. Discrete Applied Mathematics, 301, 74-98. Algebraic properties The Robertson graph is not a vertex-transitive graph and its full automorphism group is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Robertson Scholars Program
The Robertson Scholars Leadership Program is a joint merit scholarship and leadership development program at Duke University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The scholarship offers participants a unique "dual citizenship" at both Duke University and UNC-Chapel Hill. Approximately 25-30 students are selected from the pool of applicants to both universities. History and background The program was created in 2000 by benefactor Julian Robertson, a 1955 graduate of UNC-Chapel Hill. Mr. Robertson sought to encourage collaboration between Duke and the University of North Carolina and to promote the development of young leaders. His initial $24 million gift as well as his subsequent gifts to the program and the universities are overseen by a Board of Directors including Duke University President Vincent E. Price, UNC-Chapel Hill Chancellor Kevin Guskiewicz, and Julian Robertson himself. The program covers four years of undergraduate tuition, mandatory fees, room and ...

Robertson Panel
The Robertson Panel was a scientific committee which met in January 1953 headed by Howard P. Robertson. The Panel arose from a recommendation to the Intelligence Advisory Committee (IAC) in December 1952 from a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) review of the U.S. Air Force investigation into unidentified flying objects, Project Blue Book.Minutes of the Intelligence Advisory Committee, 4th December 1952, IAC-M-90 The CIA review itself was in response to widespread reports of unidentified flying objects, especially in the Washington, D.C. area during the summer of 1952. The panel was briefed on U.S. military activities and intelligence; hence the report was originally classified Secret. Later declassified, the Robertson Panel's report concluded that UFOs were not a direct threat to national security, but could pose an indirect threat by overwhelming standard military communications due to public interest in the subject. Most UFO reports, they concluded, could be explained as misiden ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
