Betweenness centrality of a vertex in a graph measures the fraction of shortest paths going through the vertex. This is a basic notion for determining the importance of a vertex in a network. The k-betweenness centrality of a vertex is…
We give a descriptive construction of trees for multi-ended graphs, which yields yet another proof of Stallings' theorem on ends of groups. Even though our proof is, in principle, not very different from already existing proofs and it draws…
This paper presents a unified framework for determining the congruences on a number of monoids and categories of transformations, diagrams, matrices and braids, and on all their ideals. The key theoretical advances present an iterative…
A closed-form formula is derived for the number of occurrences of matches of a multiset of patterns among all ordered (plane-planted) trees with a given number of edges. A pattern looks like a tree, with internal nodes and leaves, but also…
The betweenness structure of a finite metric space $M = (X, d)$ is a pair $\mathcal{B}(M) = (X,\beta_M)$ where $\beta_M$ is the so-called betweenness relation of $M$ that consists of point triplets $(x, y, z)$ such that $d(x, z) = d(x, y) +…
We construct a monadic second-order sentence that characterizes the ternary relations that are the betweenness relations of finite or infinite partial orders. We prove that no first-order sentence can do that. We characterize the partial…
Topological behavior, such as chaos, irreducibility, and mixing of a one-sided shift of finite type, is well elucidated. Meanwhile, the investigation of multidimensional shifts, for instance, textile systems is difficult and only a few…
In order to better understand and to compare interleavings between persistence modules, we elaborate on the algebraic structure of interleavings in general settings. In particular, we provide a representation-theoretic framework for…
We give a representation for labeled ordered trees that supports labeled queries such as finding the i-th ancestor of a node with a given label. Our representation is succinct, namely the redundancy is small-o of the optimal space for…
We apply a categorical lens to the study of betweenness relations by capturing them within a topological category, fibred in lattices, and study several subcategories of it. In particular, we show that its full subcategory of finite objects…
A result about spanning forests for graphs yields a short proof of Krebes's theorem concerning embedded tangles in links.
We illustrate the use of intersection types as a semantic tool for showing properties of the lattice of lambda theories. Relying on the notion of easy intersection type theory we successfully build a filter model in which the interpretation…
Motivated from the study of eccentricity, center, and sum of eccentricities in graphs and trees, we introduce several new distance-based global and local functions based on the smallest distance from a vertex to some leaf (called the…
Betweenness as a relation between three individual points has been widely studied in geometry and axiomatized by several authors in different contexts. The article proposes a more general notion of betweenness as a relation between three…
In this paper we study functions on the interval that have the same persistent homology. By introducing an equivalence relation modeled after topological conjugacy, which we call graph-equivalence, a precise enumeration of functions with…
We introduce a correspondence between phylogenetic trees and Brauer diagrams, inspired by links between binary trees and matchings described by Diaconis and Holmes (1998). This correspondence gives rise to a range of semigroup structures on…
We show that the set of balanced binary trees is closed by interval in the Tamari lattice. We establish that the intervals [T, T'] where T and T' are balanced binary trees are isomorphic as posets to a hypercube. We introduce synchronous…
The overlap graphs of subtrees of a tree are equivalent to subtree filament graphs, the overlap graphs of subtrees of a star are cocomparability graphs, and the overlap graphs of subtrees of a caterpillar are interval filament graphs. In…
Tree sets are posets with additional structure that generalize tree-like objects in graphs, matroids, or other combinatorial structures. They are a special class of abstract separation systems. We study infinite tree sets and how they…
We demonstrate the versatility of the tangle-tree duality theorem for abstract separation systems by using it to prove tree-of-tangles theorems. This approach allows us to strengthen some of the existing tree-of-tangles theorems by bounding…
