We prove some rigidity and classification results for graphs with prescribed mean curvature and locally constant Dirichlet and Neumann data, for instance as they appear in capillarity problems. We consider domains in Riemannian manifolds,…

We consider the inference of the structure of an undirected graphical model in an exact Bayesian framework. More specifically we aim at achieving the inference with close-form posteriors, avoiding any sampling step. This task would be…

One goal of applied category theory is to better understand networks appearing throughout science and engineering. Here we introduce "structured cospans" as a way to study networks with inputs and outputs. Given a functor $L \colon…

It is known that given a directed graph E and a subset X of vertices, the sum of the projections associated to the vertices in X in the C*-algebra of E converges strictly in the multiplier algebra to a projection P. Here we give a…

Undirected co-graphs are those graphs which can be generated from the single vertex graph by disjoint union and join operations. Co-graphs are exactly the P_4-free graphs (where P_4 denotes the path on 4 vertices). Co-graphs itself and…

Hypergraphs, increasingly utilised to model complex and diverse relationships in modern networks, have gained significant attention for representing intricate higher-order interactions. Among various challenges, cohesive subgraph discovery…

We give a density condition for when, subject to a necessary parity condition, an eulerian graph or digraph may be cellularly embedded in an orientable surface so that it has exactly two faces, each bounded by an euler circuit, one of which…

In the final paper of the Graph Minors series N. Robertson and P. Seymour proved that graphs are well-quasi-ordered under the immersion ordering. A direct implication of this theorem is that each class of graphs that is closed under taking…

A multipath in a directed graph is a disjoint union of paths. The multipath complex of a directed graph ${\tt G}$ is the simplicial complex whose faces are the multipaths of ${\tt G}$. We compute the Euler characteristic, and associated…

Learning the structure of dependence relations between variables is a pervasive issue in the statistical literature. A directed acyclic graph (DAG) can represent a set of conditional independences, but different DAGs may encode the same set…

Graphical causal models are an important tool for knowledge discovery because they can represent both the causal relations between variables and the multivariate probability distributions over the data. Once learned, causal graphs can be…

A functor from the category of directed trees with inclusions to the category of commutative C*-algebras with injective *-homomorphisms is constructed. This is used to define a functor from the category of directed graphs with inclusions to…

This paper aims to develop a mathematical foundation to model knitting with graphs. We provide a precise definition for knit objects with a knot theoretic component and propose a simple undirected graph, a simple directed graph, and a…

Let G be a graph with vertices V and edges E. Let F be the union-closed family of sets generated by E. Then F is the family of subsets of V without isolated points. Theorem: There is an edge e belongs to E such that |{U belongs to F | e…

We are interested in characterizing which classes of finite graphs are well-quasi-ordered by the induced subgraph relation. To that end, we devise an algorithm to decide whether a class of finite graphs well-quasi-ordered by the induced…

Models of complex networks are generally defined as graph stochastic processes in which edges and vertices are added or deleted over time to simulate the evolution of networks. Here, we define a unifying framework - probabilistic inductive…

The Union Closed Sets Conjecture is one of the most renowned problems in combinatorics. Its appeal lies in the simplicity of its statement contrasted with the potential complexity of its resolution. The conjecture posits that, in any union…
