Given a set of snapshots from a temporal network we develop, analyze, and experimentally validate a so-called network interpolation scheme. Our method allows us to build a plausible, albeit random, sequence of graphs that transition between…

We employ the mathematical programming approach in conjunction with the graph theory to study the structure of correspondent banking networks. Optimizing the network requires decisions to be made to onboard, terminate or restrict the bank…

This work theoretically investigates the performance of a composite neural network. A composite neural network is a rooted directed acyclic graph combining a set of pre-trained and non-instantiated neural network models, where a pre-trained…

In this paper, we present examples of the cyclic sieving phenomenon coming from studying independent sets in graphs of a fixed size k. Given a graph G, and a cyclic group C acting on the graph, then C also acts on the collection of…

A well-known conjecture of Stanley is that the h-vector of a matroid is a pure O-sequence. There have been numerous papers with partial progress on this conjecture, but it is still wide open. In particular, for graphic matroids coming from…

Menger's theorem tells us that if $S,T$ are sets of vertices in a graph $G$, then (for $k\ge0$) either there are $k+1$ vertex-disjoint paths between $S$ and $T$, or there is a set of $k$ vertices separating $S$ and $T$. But what if we want…

We consider the task of estimating a high-dimensional directed acyclic graph, given observations from a linear structural equation model with arbitrary noise distribution. By exploiting properties of common random graphs, we develop a new…

We consider the problem of graph generation guided by network statistics, i.e., the generation of graphs which have given values of various numerical measures that characterize networks, such as the clustering coefficient and the number of…

We study random graph models for directed acyclic graphs, an important class of networks that includes citation networks, food webs, and feed-forward neural networks among others. We propose two specific models, roughly analogous to the…

Entanglement is a complexity measure of directed graphs that origins in fixed point theory. This measure has shown its use in designing efficient algorithms to verify logical properties of transition systems. We are interested in the…

Within the graph learning community, conventional wisdom dictates that spectral convolutional networks may only be deployed on undirected graphs: Only there could the existence of a well-defined graph Fourier transform be guaranteed, so…

For a digraph $G$ and $v \in V(G)$, let $\delta^+(v)$ be the number of out-neighbors of $v$ in $G$. The Caccetta-H\"{a}ggkvist conjecture states that for all $k \ge 1$, if $G$ is a digraph with $n = |V(G)|$ such that $\delta^+(v) \ge n/k$…

Let $C^*(E)$ be the graph $C^*$-algebra associated to a graph E and let J be a gauge invariant ideal in $C^*(E)$. We compute the cyclic six-term exact sequence in $K$-theory of the associated extension in terms of the adjacency matrix…

Learning representation on graph plays a crucial role in numerous tasks of pattern recognition. Different from grid-shaped images/videos, on which local convolution kernels can be lattices, however, graphs are fully coordinate-free on…

Bidirected graphs are a generalisation of directed graphs that arises in the study of undirected graphs with perfect matchings. Menger's famous theorem - the minimum size of a set separating two vertex sets $X$ and $Y$ is the same as the…
