In the standard category of directed graphs, graph morphisms map edges to edges. By allowing graph morphisms to map edges to finite paths (path homomorphisms of graphs), we obtain an ambient category in which we determine subcategories…
This paper uses the theory of covering graphs to characterize some of the edge-transitive graphs which can arise as token graphs.
Given an input graph and weights on its vertices, the maximum co-2-plex problem is to find a subset of vertices maximizing the sum of their weights and inducing a graph of degree at most 1. In this article, we analyze polyhedral aspects of…
We show that for a given set $\Lambda$ of $nk$ distinct real numbers $\lambda_1, \lambda_2, \ldots, \lambda_{nk}$ and $k$ graphs on $n$ nodes, $G_0, G_1,\ldots,G_{k-1}$, there are real symmetric $n\times n$ matrices $A_s$, $s=0,1,\ldots,…
An invariant for cospectral graphs is a property shared by all cospectral graphs. In this paper, we establish three novel arithmetic invariants for cospectral graphs, revealing deep connections between spectral properties and combinatorial…
The spectrum of the normalized graph Laplacian yields a very comprehensive set of invariants of a graph. In order to understand the information contained in those invariants better, we systematically investigate the behavior of this…
A graph is \emph{hamiltonian-connected} if every pair of vertices can be connected by a hamiltonian path, and it is \emph{hamiltonian} if it contains a hamiltonian cycle. We construct families of non-hamiltonian graphs for which the ratio…
The spectrum of a network or graph $G=(V,E)$ with adjacency matrix $A$, consists of the eigenvalues of the normalized Laplacian $L= I - D^{-1/2} A D^{-1/2}$. This set of eigenvalues encapsulates many aspects of the structure of the graph,…
Several researchers have recently explored various graph parameters that can or cannot be characterized by the spectrum of a matrix associated with a graph. In this paper we show that several NP-hard zero forcing numbers are not…
The Bridge graph is a special type of graph which are constructed by connecting identical connected graphs with path graphs. We discuss different types of bridge graphs $B_{n\times l}^{m\times k}$ in this paper. In particular, we discuss…
Neural networks that process the parameters of other neural networks find applications in domains as diverse as classifying implicit neural representations, generating neural network weights, and predicting generalization errors. However,…
To any directed graph we associate an algebra with edges of the graph as generators and with relations defined by all pairs of directed paths with the same origin and terminus. Such algebras are related to factorizations of polynomials over…
We investigate spectral properties of quantum graphs in the form of a periodic chain of rings with a connecting link between each adjacent pair, assuming that wave functions at the vertices are matched through conditions manifestly…
Let $H$ and $G$ be graphs such that $H$ has at least 3 vertices and is connected. The $H$-line graph of $G$, denoted by $HL(G)$, is that graph whose vertices are the edges of $G$ and where two vertices of $HL(G)$ are adjacent if they are…
Let $G$ be a simple connected graph of order $n$ and $D(G)$ be the distance matrix of $G.$ Suppose that $\lambda_{1}(D(G))\geq\lambda_{2}(D(G))\geq\cdots\geq\lambda_{n}(D(G))$ are the distance spectrum of $G$. A graph $G$ is said to be…
Let $A(G)$ be the adjacency matrix of a graph $G$ with $\lambda_{1}(G)$, $\lambda_{2}(G)$, ..., $\lambda_{n}(G)$ being its eigenvalues in non-increasing order. Call the number $S_k(G):=\sum_{i=1}^{n}\lambda_{i}^k(G) (k=0,1,...,n-1)$ the…

The slope variety of a graph is an algebraic set whose points correspond to drawings of a graph. A complement-reducible graph (or cograph) is a graph without an induced four-vertex path. We construct a bijection between the zeroes of the…
