Various kinds of spread of influence occur in real world social and virtual networks. These phenomena are formulated by activation processes and irreversible dynamic monopolies in combinatorial graphs representing the topology of the…
We provide a deterministic $\tilde{O}(\log N)$-space algorithm for estimating random walk probabilities on undirected graphs, and more generally Eulerian directed graphs, to within inverse polynomial additive error…
Following [21, 23], the present work investigates a new relative entropy-regularized algorithm for solving the optimal transport on a graph problem within the randomized shortest paths formalism. More precisely, a unit flow is injected into…
Recently, random walks on dynamic graphs have been studied because of their adaptivity to the time-varying structure of real-world networks. In general, there is a tremendous gap between static and dynamic graph settings for the lazy simple…

Determining the relative importance of nodes in directed networks is important in, for example, ranking websites, publications, and sports teams, and for understanding signal flows in systems biology. A prevailing centrality measure in this…
In this article we consider a natural class of random walks on free products of graphs, which arise as convex combinations of random walks on the single factors. From the works of Gilch [6,7] it is well-known that for these random walks the…
We study the inverse problem of determining a finite weighted graph $(X,E)$ from the source-to-solution map on a vertex subset $B\subset X$ for heat equations on graphs, where the time variable can be either discrete or continuous. We prove…
We consider the Dyson hierarchical graph $\mathcal{G}$, that is a weighted fully-connected graph, where the pattern of weights is ruled by the parameter $\sigma \in (1/2, 1]$. Exploiting the deterministic recursivity through which…
Rank 1 inhomogeneous random graphs are a natural generalization of Erd\H{o}s R\'enyi random graphs. In this generalization each node is given a weight. Then the probability that an edge is present depends on the product of the weights of…
In this paper we propose a new concept to prioritize the importance of a link in a directed network graph based on an ideal flow distribution. An ideal flow is the infinite limit of relative aggregated count of random walk agents'…
Multifractal properties of the distribution of topological invariants for a model of trajectories randomly entangled with a nonsymmetric lattice of obstacles are investigated. Using the equivalence of the model to random walks on a locally…
Node-level random walk has been widely used to improve Graph Neural Networks. However, there is limited attention to random walk on edge and, more generally, on $k$-simplices. This paper systematically analyzes how random walk on different…
In a former paper we simplified the proof of a theorem on personalized random walk that is fundamental to graph nodes clustering and generalized it to bipartite graphs for a specific case where the proobability of random jump was…
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…
A natural representation of random graphs is the random measure. The collection of product random measures, their transformations, and non-negative test functions forms a general representation of the collection of non-negative weighted…
Kemeny's constant quantifies a graph's connectivity by measuring the average time for a random walker to reach any other vertex. We introduce two concepts of the directional derivative of Kemeny's constant with respect to an edge and use…
In this paper, we give an analytic solution for graphs with n nodes and E edges for which the probability of obtaining a given graph G is specified in terms of the degree sequence of G. We describe how this model naturally appears in the…
We consider the following load balancing process for $m$ tokens distributed arbitrarily among $n$ nodes connected by a complete graph: In each time step a pair of nodes is selected uniformly at random. Let $\ell_1$ and $\ell_2$ be their…
We explore the problem of inferring the graph Laplacian of a weighted, undirected network from snapshots of a single or multiple discrete-time consensus dynamics, subject to parameter uncertainty, taking place on the network. Specifically,…
