We propose to study maximum flow problems for connectome graphs. We suggest a few computational problems: finding vertex pairs with maximal flow, finding new edges which would increase the maximal flow. Initial computation results for some…

The classes of odd graphs $O_n$ and middle levels graphs $B_n$ form one parameter subclasses of the Kneser graphs and bipartite Kneser graphs respectively. In particular both classes are vertex transitive while resisting definitive…

We address questions posed by Lorenzini about relations between Jacobians, Tutte polynomials, and the Brill-Noether theory of finite graphs, as encoded in his two-variable zeta functions. In particular, we give examples showing that none of…

Assume that $G$ is a finite group. For every $a, b \in\mathbb N,$ we define a graph $\Gamma_{a,b}(G)$ whose vertices correspond to the elements of $G^a\cup G^b$ and in which two tuples $(x_1,\dots,x_a)$ and $(y_1,\dots,y_b)$ are adjacent if…

We prove several results concerning cycle tilings and $H$-factors in digraphs. We provide a minimum semi-degree condition for forcing a digraph to contain a given spanning collection of vertex-disjoint orientations of cycles. Our result is…

Sidorenko's conjecture states that the number of copies of any given bipartite graph in another graph of given density is asymptotically minimized by a random graph. The forcing conjecture further strengthens this, claiming that any…

A recent result by Kardo\v{s}, M\'a\v{c}ajov\'a and Zerafa [J. Comb. Theory, Ser. B. 160 (2023) 1--14] related to the famous Berge-Fulkerson conjecture implies that given an arbitrary set of odd pairwise edge-disjoint cycles, say $\mathcal…

We describe proper actors from the underlying groupoid of a graph C*-algebra to another \'etale groupoid in terms of bisections. This allows to understand graph morphisms and the *-homomorphisms that they induce more conceptually. More…

A functor from the category of directed trees with inclusions to the category of commutative C*-algebras with injective *-homomorphisms is constructed. This is used to define a functor from the category of directed graphs with inclusions to…

Given a finite directed acyclic graph, the space of non-negative unit flows is a lattice polytope called the flow polytope of the graph. We consider the volumes of flow polytopes for directed acyclic graphs on $n+1$ vertices with a fixed…

We establish splitter theorems for graph immersions for two families of graphs, $k$-edge-connected graphs, with $k$ even, and 3-edge-connected, internally 4-edge-connected graphs. As a corollary, we prove that every $3$-edge-connected,…

In 1989, Thomassen asked whether there is an integer-valued function f(k) such that every f(k)-connected graph admits a spanning, bipartite $k$-connected subgraph. In this paper we take a first, humble approach, showing the conjecture is…

We calculate the local Fourier transforms for formal connections. In particular, we verify an analogous conjecture suggested in Laumon's paper: "Transformation de Fourier, constantes d'equations fonctionnelles et conjecture de Weil, 2.6.3".

Let G=(V,E) be a simple undirected graph. For a given set L of the real line, a function omega from E to L is called an L-flow. Given a vector gamma whose coordinates are indexed by V, we say that omega is a gamma-L-flow if for each v in V,…

An unsplittable multiflow routes the demand of each commodity along a single path from its source to its sink node. As our main result, we prove that in series-parallel digraphs, any given multiflow can be expressed as a convex combination…

We introduce a family of adaptive estimators on graphs, based on penalizing the $\ell_1$ norm of discrete graph differences. This generalizes the idea of trend filtering [Kim et al. (2009), Tibshirani (2014)], used for univariate…
