Starting from the working hypothesis that both physics and the corresponding mathematics have to be described by means of discrete concepts on the Planck-scale, one of the many problems one has to face in this enterprise is to find the…
Two vertices $u, v \in V$ of an undirected connected graph $G=(V,E)$ are resolved by a vertex $w$ if the distance between $u$ and $w$ and the distance between $v$ and $w$ are different. A set $R \subseteq V$ of vertices is a $k$-resolving…
Metric graphs are meaningful objects for modeling complex structures that arise in many real-world applications, such as road networks, river systems, earthquake faults, blood vessels, and filamentary structures in galaxies. To study metric…
The distance matrix of a connected graph is defined as the matrix in which the entries are the pairwise distances between vertices. The distance spectrum of a graph is the set of eigenvalues of its distance matrix. A graph is said to be…
The classical Hausdorff dimension of finite or countable metric spaces is zero. Recently, we defined a variant, called \emph{finite Hausdorff dimension}, which is not necessarily trivial on finite metric spaces. In this paper we apply this…
Symmetry is an important aesthetic criteria in graph drawing and network visualisation. Symmetric graph drawings aim to faithfully represent automorphisms of graphs as geometric symmetries in a drawing. In this paper, we design and…
Metric embedding has become a common technique in the design of algorithms. Its applicability is often dependent on how high the embedding's distortion is. For example, embedding finite metric space into trees may require linear distortion…
Over the last 30 years, researchers have investigated connections between dimension for posets and planarity for graphs. Here we extend this line of research to the structural graph theory parameter tree-width by proving that the dimension…
A simple graph G is said to be representable in a real vector space of dimension m if there is an embedding of the vertex set in the vector space such that the Euclidean distance between any two distinct vertices is one of only two distinct…
For a graph $G$, a subset $S\subseteq V(G)$ is called a resolving set of $G$ if, for any two vertices $u,v\in V(G)$, there exists a vertex $w\in S$ such that $d(w,u)\neq d(w,v)$. The Metric Dimension problem takes as input a graph $G$ on…
Let $\Gamma$ be a simple connected undirected graph with vertex set $V(\Gamma)$ and edge set $E(\Gamma)$. The metric dimension of a graph $\Gamma$ is the least number of vertices in a set with the property that the list of distances from…
Let $T$ be a weighted tree. The weight of a subtree $T_1$ of $T$ is defined as the product of weights of vertices and edges of $T_1$. We obtain a linear-time algorithm to count the sum of weights of subtrees of $T$. As applications, we…
The magnitude of a graph is one of a family of cardinality-like invariants extending across mathematics; it is a cousin to Euler characteristic and geometric measure. Among its cardinality-like properties are multiplicativity with respect…
The inverse degree of a graph is the sum of the reciprocals of the degrees of its vertices. We prove that in any connected planar graph, the diameter is at most 5/2 times the inverse degree, and that this ratio is tight. To develop a…
Graphs are used in almost every scientific discipline to express relations among a set of objects. Algorithms that compare graphs, and output a closeness score, or a correspondence among their nodes, are thus extremely important. Despite…
Let ${\rm dim}(G)$ and $D(G)$ respectively denote the metric dimension and the distinguishing number of a graph $G$. It is proved that $D(G) \le {\rm dim}(G)+1$ holds for every connected graph $G$. Among trees, exactly paths and stars…
The rotational dimension is a minor monotone graph invariant related to the dimension of an Euclidean space containing a spectral embedding corresponding to the first nonzero eigenvalue of the graph Laplacian, which is introduced by…
We compute the magnitude (an isometric invariant of metric spaces) of compact $\mathbb{R}$-trees and show that it equals $1 + L/2$, where $L \in [0, \infty]$ denotes the total length. Although length is the only geometric invariant captured…
The notion of metric dimension, $dim(G)$, of a graph $G$, as well as a number of variants, is now well studied. In this paper, we begin a local analysis of this notion by introducing $cdim_G(v)$, \emph{the connected metric dimension of $G$…
We consider complete graphs with edge weights and/or node weights taking values in some set. In the first part of this paper, we show that a large number of graphs are completely determined, up to isomorphism, by the distribution of their…
