The relationship between the concepts of network and knowledge graph is explored. A knowledge graph can be considered a special type of network. When using a knowledge graph, various networks can be obtained from it, and network analysis…

In this paper we establish a relationship between geodesic nets and critical points of the distance function. We bound the number of balanced points for certain minimizing geodesic nets on manifolds homeomorphic to the $n$-sphere. We also…

Interactions and relations between objects may be pairwise or higher-order in nature, and so network-valued data are ubiquitous in the real world. The "space of networks", however, has a complex structure that cannot be adequately described…

In this paper, we leverage the properties of non-Euclidean Geometry to define the Geodesic distance (GD) on the space of statistical manifolds. The Geodesic distance is a real and intuitive similarity measure that is a good alternative to…

Minimum resolution set and associated metric dimension provide the basis for unique and systematic labeling of nodes of a graph using distances to a set of landmarks. Such a distance vector set, however, may not be unique to the graph and…

Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is a key ingredient in the training of deep neural networks and yet its geometrical significance appears elusive. We study a deterministic model in which the trajectories of our dynamical systems are…

We introduce a measure of {\em greedy connectivity} for geographical networks (graphs embedded in space) and where the search for connecting paths relies only on local information, such as a node's location and that of its neighbors.…

We consider the following questions: given a hyperbolic plane domain and a separation of its complement into two disjoint closed sets each of which contains at least two points, what is the shortest closed hyperbolic geodesic which…

In this paper, we study the computational complexity of finding the \emph{geodetic number} of graphs. A set of vertices $S$ of a graph $G$ is a \emph{geodetic set} if any vertex of $G$ lies in some shortest path between some pair of…

Spatial networks are networks where nodes are located in a space equipped with a metric. Typically, the space is two-dimensional and until recently and traditionally, the metric that was usually considered was the Euclidean distance. In…

A half-geodesic is a closed geodesic realizing the distance between any pair of its points. All geodesics in a round sphere are half-geodesics. Conversely, this note establishes that Riemannian spheres with all geodesics closed and…

We introduce the heat method for computing the shortest geodesic distance to a specified subset (e.g., point or curve) of a given domain. The heat method is robust, efficient, and simple to implement since it is based on solving a pair of…

A consistent path system in a graph $G$ is an intersection-closed collection of paths, with exactly one path between any two vertices in $G$. We call $G$ metrizable if every consistent path system in it is the system of geodesic paths…

Networks can be highly complex systems with numerous interconnected components and interactions. Granular computing offers a framework to manage this complexity by decomposing networks into smaller, more manageable components, or granules.…

Geometric graphs are a special kind of graph with geometric features, which are vital to model many scientific problems. Unlike generic graphs, geometric graphs often exhibit physical symmetries of translations, rotations, and reflections,…

Networks are structures that encode relationships between pairs of elements or nodes. However, there is no imposed connection between these relationships, i.e., the relationship between two nodes can be independent of every other one in the…

A common model for social networks are Geometric Inhomogeneous Random Graphs (GIRGs), in which vertices draw a random position in some latent geometric space, and the probability of two vertices forming an edge depends on their geometric…

Given a set $S$ of points in the plane, a geometric network for $S$ is a graph $G$ with vertex set $S$ and straight edges. We consider a broadcasting situation, where one point $r \in S$ is a designated source. Given a dilation factor…
