This paper presents a first-order {distributed continuous-time algorithm} for computing the least-squares solution to a linear equation over networks. Given the uniqueness of the solution, with nonintegrable and diminishing step size,…
We obtain sequences of inclusion sets for the spectrum, essential spectrum, and pseudospectrum of banded, in general non-normal, matrices of finite or infinite size. Each inclusion set is the union of the pseudospectra of certain…
This paper concerns the number of lattice points in the plane which are visible along certain curves to all elements in some set S of lattice points simultaneously. By proposing the concept of level of visibility, we are able to analyze…
We describe the adjacency of vertices of the (unbounded version of the) set covering polyhedron, in a similar way to the description given by Chvatal for the stable set polytope. We find a sufficient condition for adjacency, and…
An $(n,k)$ sequence covering array is a set of permutations of $[n]$ such that each sequence of $k$ distinct elements of $[n]$ is a subsequence of at least one of the permutations. An $(n,k)$ sequence covering array is perfect if there is a…
In this paper we define a degree for ends of infinite digraphs. The well-definedness of our definition in particular resolves a problem by Zuther. Furthermore, we extend our notion of end degree to also respect, among others, the vertices…
A vertex whose removal in a graph $G$ increases the number of components of $G$ is called a cut vertex. For all $n,c$, we determine the maximum number of connected induced subgraphs in a connected graph with order $n$ and $c$ cut vertices,…
For any compact, connected, orientable, finite-type surface with marked points other than the sphere with three marked points, we construct a finite rigid set of its arc complex: a finite simplicial subcomplex of its arc complex such that…
We generalise structure tree theory, which is based on removing finitely many edges, to removing finitely many vertices. This gives a significant generalization of Tutte's tree decomposition of 2-connected graphs into 3-connected blocks.…
Let \mathbb{F}_q^{n+l} denote the (n+l)-dimensional singular linear space over a finite field \mathbb{F}_q. For a fixed integer m\leq\min\{n,l\}, denote by \mathcal{L}^m_o(\mathbb{F}_q^{n+l}) the set of all subspaces of type (t,t_1), where…
In a series of three papers we develop an end space theory for directed graphs. As for undirected graphs, the ends of a digraph are points at infinity to which its rays converge. Unlike for undirected graphs, some ends are joined by limit…
We describe spaces of essential finite height (measured) laminations in a surface $S$ using a parameter space we call $\mathbb S$, an ordered semi-ring. We show that for every finite height essential lamination $L$ in $S$, there is an…
In this paper, our goal is to characterize two graph classes based on the properties of minimal vertex (edge) separators. We first present a structural characterization of graphs in which every minimal vertex separator is a stable set. We…
The power graph $\mathcal{P}(G)$ is the simple undirected graph with group elements as a vertex set and two elements are adjacent if one of them is a power of the other. The order supergraph $\mathcal{S}(G)$ of the power graph…
After giving a short introduction on smooth lattice polytopes, I will present a proof for the finiteness of smooth lattice polytopes with few lattice points. The argument is then turned into an algorithm for the classification of smooth…
We consider the lattice of all the weak factorization systems on a given finite lattice. We prove that it is semidistributive, trim and congruence uniform. We deduce a graph theoretical approach to the problem of enumerating transfer…
We consider an overdetermined elliptic problem known as the hollow vortex problem. We prove that the solutions to this problem are in 1:1 correspondence with minimal graphs bounded by horizontal symmetry lines. We use this correspondence to…
It has been conjectured that if a finite graph has a vertex coloring such that the union of any two color classes induces a connected graph, then for every set $T$ of vertices containing exactly one member from each color class there exists…
The intersection graph of a group $G$ is an undirected graph without loops and multiple edges defined as follows: the vertex set is the set of all proper non-trivial subgroups of $G$, and there is an edge between two distinct vertices $H$…
