For a graph representation of a dataset, a straightforward normality measure for a sample can be its graph degree. Considering a weighted graph, degree of a sample is the sum of the corresponding row's values in a similarity matrix. The…

We consider a latent space model for random graphs where a node $i$ is associated to a random latent point $X_i$ on the Euclidean unit ball. The probability that an edge exists between two nodes is determined by a ``link'' function, which…

The study of triangles in graphs is a standard tool in network analysis, leading to measures such as the \emph{transitivity}, i.e., the fraction of paths of length $2$ that participate in triangles. Real-world networks are often directed,…

Sampling and interpolation have been extensively studied, in order to reconstruct or estimate the entire graph signal from the signal values on a subset of vertexes, of which most achievements are about continuous signals. While in a lot of…

A metric graph is a 1-dimensional stratified metric space consisting of vertices and edges or loops glued together. Metric graphs can be naturally used to represent and model data that take the form of noisy filamentary structures, such as…

We obtain faster expander decomposition algorithms for directed graphs, matching the guarantees of Saranurak and Wang (SODA 2019) for expander decomposition on undirected graphs. Our algorithms are faster than prior work and also generalize…

We investigate the estimation of the perimeter of a set by a graph cut of a random geometric graph. For $\Omega \subset D = (0,1)^d$, with $d \geq 2$, we are given $n$ random i.i.d. points on $D$ whose membership in $\Omega$ is known. We…

Suppose we are given a vector $f$ in $\R^N$. How many linear measurements do we need to make about $f$ to be able to recover $f$ to within precision $\epsilon$ in the Euclidean ($\ell_2$) metric? Or more exactly, suppose we are interested…

We provide CONGEST model algorithms for approximating minimum weighted vertex cover and the maximum weighted matching. For bipartite graphs, we show that a $(1+\varepsilon)$-approximate weighted vertex cover can be computed…

In this paper, we consider the graph alignment problem, which is the problem of recovering, given two graphs, a one-to-one mapping between nodes that maximizes edge overlap. This problem can be viewed as a noisy version of the well-known…

The aim of this chapter is to give an overview of the recent advances related to sampling and recovery of signals defined over graphs. First, we illustrate the conditions for perfect recovery of bandlimited graph signals from samples…

This work addresses the problem of simulating Gaussian random fields that are continuously indexed over a class of metric graphs, termed graphs with Euclidean edges, being more general and flexible than linear networks. We introduce three…

In the Metric Dimension problem, one asks for a minimum-size set $R$ of vertices such that for any pair of vertices of the graph, there is a vertex from $R$ whose two distances to the vertices of the pair are distinct. This problem has…

A vertex $w$ resolves two vertices $u$ and $v$ in a directed graph $G$ if the distance from $w$ to $u$ is different to the distance from $w$ to $v$. A set of vertices $R$ is a resolving set for a directed graph $G$ if for every pair of…

Graphlets are subgraphs rooted at a fixed vertex. The number of occurrences of graphlets aligned to a particular vertex, called graphlet degree sequence (gds), gives a topological description of the surrounding of the analyzed vertex.…

Distances in a network capture relations between nodes and are the basis of centrality, similarity, and influence measures. Often, however, the relevance of a node $u$ to a node $v$ is more precisely measured not by the magnitude of the…

Bidirected graphs generalize directed and undirected graphs in that edges are oriented locally at every node. The natural notion of the degree of a node that takes into account (local) orientations is that of net-degree. In this paper, we…
