In recent work, the authors developed a simple method of constructing topological spaces from certain well-behaved partially ordered sets -- those coming from sequences of relations between finite sets. This method associates a given poset…

We consider mappings satisfying an upper bound for the distortion of families of curves. We establish lower bounds for the distortion of distances under such mappings. As applications, we obtain theorems on the discreteness of the limit…

We study the automorphism group of graphons (graph limits). We prove that after an appropriate "standardization" of the graphon, the automorphism group is compact. Furthermore, we characterize the orbits of the automorphism group on…

The category of metric spaces is a subcategory of quasi-metric spaces. In this paper the notion of entropy for the continuous maps of a quasi-metric space is extended via spanning and separated sets. Moreover, two metric spaces that are…

Some years ago, the harmonic polynomial was introduced in order to understand better the harmonic topological index; for instance, it allows to obtain bounds of the harmonic index of the main products of graphs. Here, we obtain several…

In the field of complex networks and graph theory, new results are typically tested on graphs generated by a variety of algorithms such as the Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi model or the Barab\'{a}si-Albert model. Unfortunately, most graph generating…

We characterize the smallest finite spaces with the same homotopy groups of the spheres. Similarly, we describe the minimal finite models of any finite graph. We also develop new combinatorial techniques based on finite spaces to study…

We give an alternative proof for the fact that in $n$-dimensional Alexandrov spaces with curvature bounded below there exists a unique optimal transport plan from any purely $(n-1)$-unrectifiable starting measure, and that this plan is…

Given a complete doubling metric measure space $X$ that supports a $2$-Poincar\'e inequality, we approximate harmonic functions on a bounded domain $\Omega$ with a prescribed Newton-Sobolev boundary data. Our approach is based on the…

We study the inertia of distance matrices of weighted graphs. Our novel congruence-based proof of the inertia of weighted trees extends to a proof for the inertia of weighted unicyclic graphs whose cycle is a triangle. Partial results are…

Grouping the nodes of a graph into clusters is a standard technique for studying networks. We study a problem where we are given a directed network and are asked to partition the graph into a sequence of coherent groups. We assume that…
