For a given function from a set to itself, we can define a directed graph called the functional graph, where the vertices are the elements of the set, and the edges are all the pairs of inputs and outputs for the function. In this article…
We consider a refinement of the partition function of graph homomorphisms and present a quasi-polynomial algorithm to compute it in a certain domain. As a corollary, we obtain quasi-polynomial algorithms for computing partition functions…
In this paper we give some interesting identities between Euler numbers and zeta functions. Finally we will give the new values of Euler zeta function at positive even integers.
We study functional graphs generated by several quadratic polynomials, acting simultaneously on a finite field of odd characteristic. We obtain several results about the number of leaves in such graphs. In particular, in the case of graphs…
We introduce the concept of minimum edge cover for an induced subgraph in a graph. Let $G$ be a unicyclic graph with a unique odd cycle and $I=I(G)$ be its edge ideal. We compute the exact values of all symbolic defects of $I$ using the…
We obtain several sharp spectral bounds, approximations, and exact values for the isoperimetric number and related edge-expansion parameters of graphs. Our results focus on graph powers and on families of graphs with rich algebraic or…
In 1994, Cornelis Hoede and Xueliang Li introduced the clique polynomial of a graph. Also, a theorem for the edge subgraph expansion for clique polynomials. In this note we present a counter example for it and explain which case it could be…
We study the behaviour of clique complexes of graphs under the operation of taking graph powers. As an example we compute the clique complexes of powers of cycles, or, in other words, the independence complexes of circular complete graphs.
Theta graphs are important geometric graphs that have many applications, including wireless networking, motion planning, real-time animation, and minimum-spanning tree construction. We give closed form expressions for the average degree of…
A Hamilton cycle is a cycle containing every vertex of a graph. A graph is called Hamiltonian if it contains a Hamilton cycle. The Hamilton cycle problem is to find the sufficient and necessary condition that a graph is Hamiltonian. In this…
We study the probability that a cycle of length k in the lattice [1, n]^s does not contain more lattice points than the k vertices of the cycle. Then we generalize this problem to other configurations induced by a given graph H,…
Let $G$ be a finite simple graph with edge ideal $I(G)$. Let $J(G)$ denote the Alexander dual of $I(G)$. We show that a description of all induced cycles of odd length in $G$ is encoded in the associated primes of $J(G)^2$. This result…
We propose the Kazakov-Migdal model on graphs and show that, when the parameters of this model are appropriately tuned, the partition function is represented by the unitary matrix integral of an extended Ihara zeta function, which has a…
The speed of a graph class $\cal G$ measures how many labeled graphs on $n$ vertices one can find in $\cal G$. This graph class complexity function is explicitly provided on graphclasses.org. However, for many graph classes, their speed…
We use the notion of Milnor fibres of the germ of a meromorphic function and the method of partial resolutions for a study of topology of a polynomial map at infinity (mainly for calculation of the zeta-function of a monodromy). It gives…
We establish a generalization of the second weighted zeta function of a graph to the case of quaternions. For an arc-weighted graph whose weights are quaternions, we define the second weighted zeta function by using the Study determinant…
The arc graph $\delta(G)$ of a digraph $G$ is the digraph with the set of arcs of $G$ as vertex-set, where the arcs of $\delta(G)$ join consecutive arcs of $G$. In 1981, Poljak and R\"{o}dl characterised the chromatic number of $\delta(G)$…
In [P] R. Pellikaan introduced a two variable zeta-function for a curve over a finite field and proved that it is a rational function. Here we show that its denominator is absolutely irreducible. This is motivated by work of J. Lagarias and…
Motivated by circle graphs, and the enumeration of Euler circuits, we define a one-variable ``interlace polynomial'' for any graph. The polynomial satisfies a beautiful and unexpected reduction relation, quite different from the cut and…
Some of the most interesting quantities associated with a factor graph are its marginals and its partition sum. For factor graphs \emph{without cycles} and moderate message update complexities, the sum-product algorithm (SPA) can be used to…
