We give polynomial-time approximation schemes for monotone maximization problems expressible in terms of distances (up to a fixed upper bound) and efficiently solvable in graphs of bounded treewidth. These schemes apply in all fractionally…
Let $G$ be a connected graph with vertex set $V(G)=\{v_{1},v_{2},...,v_{n}\}$. The distance matrix $D(G)=(d_{ij})_{n\times n}$ is the matrix indexed by the vertices of $G,$ where $d_{ij}$ denotes the distance between the vertices $v_{i}$…
In this paper we compute the spectrum of a special block matrix and use it to describe the distance spectra of some double join of graphs. As an application, we give several families of distance equienergetic graphs of diameter 3.
Many applications in pattern recognition represent patterns as a geometric graph. The geometric graph distance (GGD) has recently been studied as a meaningful measure of similarity between two geometric graphs. Since computing the GGD is…
$k$-Approximate distance labeling schemes are schemes that label the vertices of a graph with short labels in such a way that the $k$-approximation of the distance between any two vertices $u$ and $v$ can be determined efficiently by merely…
We explore the combination theorem for a group G splitting as a graph of relatively hyperbolic groups. Using the fine graph approach to relative hyperbolicity, we find short proofs of the relative hyperbolicity of G under certain…
Let the Kneser graph $K$ of a distance-regular graph $\Gamma$ be the graph on the same vertex set as $\Gamma$, where two vertices are adjacent when they have maximal distance in $\Gamma$. We study the situation where the Bose-Mesner algebra…
Hyperbolicity is a graph parameter related to how much a graph resembles a tree with respect to distances. Its computation is challenging as the main approaches consist in scanning all quadruples of the graph or using fast matrix…
In this paper, we study the distribution of the minimal distance (in the Hamming metric) of a random linear code of dimension $k$ in $\mathbb{F}_q^n$. We provide quantitative estimates showing that the distribution function of the minimal…
Consider the Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP): given two matrices A and D, minimize {trace AXDX^T: X is a permutation matrix}. New lower bounds were obtained recently (Mittelmann and peng [8]) for the QAP where D is either the Manhattan…
Associated to any finite metric space are a large number of objects and quantities which provide some degree of structural or geometric information about the space. In this paper we show that in the setting of subsets of weighted Hamming…
The Gilbert graph $\text{Gilbert}(q,n,d)$, which arises naturally in graph theory and coding theory, is the regular graph on $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ in which two vertices are adjacent if their Hamming distance is less than $d$, and it is…
The Gordian graph and H(2)-Gordian graphs of knots are abstract graphs whose vertex sets represent isotopy classes of unoriented knots, and whose edge sets record whether pairs of knots are related by crossing changes or H(2)-moves,…
Let $G$ be a signed graph. Let $\hat{G}$ be the graph obtained from $G$ by replacing each edge $e$ by a chain or a sheaf. We first establish a relation between the $Q$-polynomial of $\hat{G}$[6] and the $W$-polynomial of $G$ [9]. Two…
The goal of this paper is to present a Dunkl-Gamma type operator with the help of two-variable Hermite polynomials and to derive its approximating properties via the classical modulus of continuity, second modulus of continuity and Peetre's…

The interaction between combinatorics and algebraic and differential geometry is very strong. While researching a problem of Hessian topology, we came across a series of identities of binomial coefficients, which are useful for proving a…
We give algorithms for approximating the partition function of the ferromagnetic $q$-color Potts model on graphs of maximum degree $d$. Our primary contribution is a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme for $d$-regular graphs with an…
We consider a primitive distance-regular graph $\Gamma$ with diameter at least $3$. We use the intersection numbers of $\Gamma$ to find a positive semidefinite matrix $G$ with integer entries. We show that $G$ has determinant zero if and…
It has been shown beneficial for many types of data which present an underlying hierarchical structure to be embedded in hyperbolic spaces. Consequently, many tools of machine learning were extended to such spaces, but only few…
