We consider the infinite directed graph with vertices the set of integers ...,-2,-1,0,1,2,... . Let v be a random variable taking either finite values or value "minus infinity". Consider random weights v(j,k), indexed by pairs (j,k) of…
Let ${\cal G}=(G,w)$ be a weighted simple finite connected graph, that is, let $G$ be a simple finite connected graph endowed with a function $w$ from the set of the edges of $G$ to the set of real numbers. For any subgraph $G'$ of $G$, we…
Explicit determinant formulas are presented for the $\tau$ functions of the generalized Painlev\'e equations of type $A$. This result allows an interpretation of the $\tau$-functions as the Pl\"ucker coordinates of the universal Grassmann…
We present an approach to reduced-order modelling that builds off recent graph-theoretic work for representation, exploration, and analysis of computed states of physical systems (Banerjee et al., Comp. Meth. App. Mech. Eng., 351, 501-530,…
We enumerate factorisations of the complete graph into spanning regular graphs in several cases, including when the degrees of all the factors except for one or two are small. The resulting asymptotic behaviour is seen to generalise the…
We introduce the weighted path homology on the category of weigh\-ted directed hypergraphs and describe conditions of homotopy invariance of weighted path homology groups. We give several examples that explain the nontriviality of the…
We establish several contraction formulas for Kirchhoff index. We relate Kirchhoff index with some other metrized graph invariants. By applying our contraction formulas successively when the graph is a tree, we derive new formulas for…
We define Leavitt path algebras of hypergraphs generalizing simultaneously Leavitt path algebras of finitely separated graphs and Leavitt path algebras of row-finite vertex-weighted graphs. We find linear bases for those algebras, compute…
In this work, we establish a general relationship between the enumeration of weighted directed paths and skew Schur functions, extending work by Bousquet-M\'elou, who expressed generating functions of discrete excursions in terms of…
We present a deterministic distributed algorithm to compute all-pairs shortest paths(APSP) in an edge-weighted directed or undirected graph. Our algorithm runs in $\tilde{O}(n^{3/2})$ rounds in the Congest model, where $n$ is the number of…
In this paper, various kinds of invariants of directed graphs are summarized. In the first topic, the invariant w(G) for a directed graph G is introduced, which is primarily defined by S. Chen and X.M. Chen to solve a problem of weak…
We consider approximations for computing minimum weighted cuts in directed graphs. We consider both rooted and global minimum cuts, and both edge-cuts and vertex-cuts. For these problems we give randomized Monte Carlo algorithms that…
For a shift-invariant weighted directed graph with vertex set $\mathbb{Z}$, we examine the minimal weight $\kappa_0$ exiting a finite, strongly connected set of vertices. Although $\kappa_0$ is defined as an infimum, it has been shown that…
The problem of a restricted random walk on graphs which keeps track of the number of immediate reversal steps is considered by using a transfer matrix formulation. A closed-form expression is obtained for the generating function of the…
In this paper, we count acyclic and strongly connected uniform directed labeled hypergraphs. For these combinatorial structures, we introduce a specific generating function allowing us to recover and generalize some results on the number of…
We prove a combinatorial lemma about the distribution of directed currents in a complex "loop soup" and use it to give a new proof of the isomorphism relating loop measures and complex Gaussian fields.
We calculate determinants of weighted sums of reflections and of (nested) commutators of reflections. The results obtained generalize the Kirchhoff's matrix-tree theorem and the matrix-3-hypertree theorem by G.\,Massbaum and A.\,Vaintrob.
This paper provides an overview of results, concerning longest or heaviest paths, in the area of random directed graphs on the integers along with some extensions. We study first-order asymptotics of heaviest paths allowing weights both on…
To a given nonsingular triangular matrix A with entries from a ring, we associate a weighted bipartite graph G(A) and give a combinatorial description of the inverse of A by employing paths in G(A). Under a certain condition, nonsingular…
We present the first combinatorial proof of the Graham-Pollak Formula for the determinant of the distance matrix of a tree, via sign-reversing involutions and the Lindstr\"om-Gessel-Viennot Lemma. Our approach provides a cohesive and…
