This thesis focuses on theoretical and algorithmic tools for determining the numbers of induced subgraphs in strongly regular graphs, SRGs, and on further applications of such numbers. We consider in more detail a restricted class of these…
We introduce the concept of a family of finite directed graphs (order 1) which are directed graphs derived from an infinite directed graph (order 1), called the 1-root digraph. The 1-root digraph has four fundamental properties which are;…
A fundamental challenge in the empirical sciences involves uncovering causal structure through observation and experimentation. Causal discovery entails linking the conditional independence (CI) invariances in observational data to their…
The symplectic graph Sp(2d, q) is the collinearity graph of the symplectic space of dimension 2d over a finite field of order q. A k-regular graph on v vertices is a divisible design graph with parameters (v, k, lambda_1, lambda_2 ,m,n) if…
Over the past decade, a number of quantum processes have been proposed which are logically consistent, yet feature a cyclic causal structure. However, there is no general formal method to construct a process with an exotic causal structure…
The stability number of a forbidden family measures how many different structures are needed to approximate all near-extremal constructions avoiding it. An infinite stability number means that no finite list of structures suffices. We…
Strongly regular graphs are highly symmetrical and can be described fully with just a few parameters yet the existence of many of them is still under the question. Due to this uncertainty, it is of immense interest to study their structure,…
We study directed random graphs (random graphs whose edges are directed) as they evolve in discrete time by the addition of nodes and edges. For two distinct evolution strategies, one that forces the graph to a condition of near acyclicity…
We demonstrate a construction method based on a gain function that is defined on the incidence graph of an incidence geometry. Restricting to when the incidence geometry is a linear space, we show that the construction yields a generalized…
We consider the problem of learning causal networks with interventions, when each intervention is limited in size under Pearl's Structural Equation Model with independent errors (SEM-IE). The objective is to minimize the number of…
In this paper we unify several existing regularity conditions for graphs, including strong regularity, $k$-isoregularity, and the $t$-vertex condition. We develop an algebraic composition/decomposition theory of regularity conditions. Using…
This paper studies the problem of designing networks that are strong structurally controllable, and robust simultaneously. For given network specifications, including the number of nodes $N$, the number of leaders $N_L$, and diameter $D$,…
This paper is mainly devoted to constructions of \(q\)-analogs of group divisible designs and their applications. We give a complete description of the action of \(G=\GL(m,q^l)\) on \(\Omega_k^{k-1}\), where $3\leq k\leq \min\left\lbrace…
A recent example of a non-hyponormal injective composition operator in an $L^2$-space generating Stieltjes moment sequences, invented by three of the present authors, was built over a non-locally finite directed tree. The main goal of this…
We analyze a random greedy process to construct $q$-uniform linear hypergraphs using the differential equation method. We show for $q=o(\sqrt{\log n})$, that this process yields a hypergraph with $\frac{n(n-1)}{q(q-1)}(1-o(1))$ edges. We…
Let $\Gamma$ be a group and $(\Gamma_n)_{n=1} ^{\infty}$ be a descending sequence of finite-index normal subgroups. We establish explicit upper bounds on the diameters of the directed Cayley graphs of the $\Gamma/\Gamma_n$ , under some…
We construct distance-regular graphs, including strongly regular graphs, admitting a transitive action of the Chevalley groups $G_2(4)$ and $G_2(5)$, the orthogonal group $O(7,3)$ and the Tits group $T=$$^2F_4(2)'$. Most of the constructed…
We consider intrinsic linking and knotting in the context of directed graphs. We construct an example of a directed graph that contains a consistently oriented knotted cycle in every embedding. We also construct examples of intrinsically…
We introduce the concept of a family of finite directed graphs (\emph{positive integer order,} $f(x) = mx + c; x,m \in \Bbb N$ and $c \in \Bbb N_0)$ which are directed graphs derived from an infinite directed graph called the $f(x)$-root…
This is a revision of the paper archived previously on August 22, 2002. It corrects a mistake in Sec. 8 concerning eccentricities of graphs. From any given sequence of finite or infinite graphs, a nonstandard graph is constructed. The…
