Splines are central objects for the interpolation of discrete data via piecewise smooth paths. Their iterated-integral signature is an infinite collection of tensors which characterizes paths almost uniquely. We study truncations of this…
We study generalized inverses for matrices associated with double star digraphs. Explicit block formulas and existence criteria are obtained for core, dual core, core EP, and dual core EP inverses, expressed in terms of explicit algebraic…
In this work we will study the universal labeling algebra A(Gamma), a related algebra B(Gamma), and their behavior as invariants of layered graphs. We will introduce the notion of an upper vertex-like basis, which allows us to recover…
We say that a digraph is essentially cyclic if its Laplacian spectrum is not completely real. The essential cyclicity implies the presence of directed cycles, but not vice versa. The problem of characterizing essential cyclicity in terms of…
Stanley's theorem establishes that for any finite graph $G$, the number $h_G(s)$ of magic labelings with magic sum $s$ can be expressed as a sum of two polynomials in $s$. However, determining the precise form of $h_G(s)$ is generally…
A set of edges $X\subseteq E(G)$ of a graph $G$ is an edge general position set if no three edges from $X$ lie on a common shortest path. The edge general position number ${\rm gp}_{\rm e}(G)$ of $G$ is the cardinality of a largest edge…
The cycle double cover conjecture is a long standing problem in graph theory, which links local properties, the valency of a vertex and no bridges, and a global property of the graph, being covered by a particular set of cycles. We prove…
We prove the existence of infinite classes of cyclic G-decompositions of the complete multipartite graph, G being a caterpillar, a hairy cycle or a cycle. All the results are obtained by the construction of d-divisible $\alpha$-labelings of…
Spectral characterization of graphs is an important topic in spectral graph theory, which has received a lot of attention from researchers in recent years. It is generally very hard to show a given graph to be determined by its spectrum.…
On a reduced analytic space $X$ we introduce the concept of a generalized cycle, which extends the notion of a formal sum of analytic subspaces to include also a form part. We then consider a suitable equivalence relation and corresponding…
This paper presents the first method for constructing bases for polynomial spline spaces over an arbitrary T-meshes (PT-splines for short). We construct spline basis functions for an arbitrary T-mesh by first converting the T-mesh into a…
We generalize the concept of token graphs to obtain supertoken graphs. In the latter case, there can be more than one token in a vertex. We formally define supertoken graphs and establish their basic properties. Moreover, we provide some…
This article treats compactifications of the space of generalized spin curves. Generalized spin curves, or $r$-spin curves, are pairs $(X,L)$ with $X$ a smooth curve and $L$ a line bundle whose r-th tensor power is isomorphic to the…
The cycles are the only $2$-connected graphs in which any two nonadjacent vertices form a vertex cut. We generalize this fact by proving that for every integer $k\ge 3$ there exists a unique graph $G$ satisfying the following conditions:…
We explore connections between the generalized multiplicities of square-free monomial ideals and the combinatorial structure of the underlying hypergraphs using methods of commutative algebra and polyhedral geometry. For instance, we show…
Multigraded linear series generalize the classical morphism to the linear series of a basepoint-free line bundle on a scheme. We investigate the collection of the natural cornering morphisms into elementary bigraded linear series obtained…
We use purely combinatorial arguments to give a formula to compute all graded Betti numbers of path ideals of line graphs and cycles. As a consequence we can give new and short proofs for the known formulas of regularity and projective…
A graph G is said to be M-integral (resp. A-integral, D-integral, DL-integral or DQ-integral) if all eigenvalues of its matrix M (resp. adjacency matrix A(G), distance matrix D(G), distance Laplacian matrix DL(G) or distance signless…
Let G be a finite group with identity e and H \neq \{e\} be a subgroup of G. The generalized non-coprime graph GAmma_{G,H} of G with respect to H is the simple undirected graph with G - \{e \}\) as the vertex set and two distinct vertices a…
The geometry of the moduli space of stable spin curves is studied, with emphasis on its combinatorial properties. In this context, the standard graph theoretic framework is not just a book-keeping device: some purely combinatorial results…
