In this article we establish relationships between Leavitt path algebras, talented monoids and the adjacency matrices of the underlying graphs. We show that indeed the adjacency matrix generates in some sense the group action on the…
We give an approximate Menger-type theorem for when a graph $G$ contains two $X-Y$ paths $P_1$ and $P_2$ such that $P_1 \cup P_2$ is an induced subgraph of $G$. More generally, we prove that there exists a function $f(d) \in O(d)$, such…
A \emph{simple} $s,t$ path $P$ in a rectangular grid graph $\mathbb{G}$ is a Hamiltonian path from the top-left corner $s$ to the bottom-right corner $t$ such that each \emph{internal} subpath of $P$ with both endpoints $a$ and $b$ on the…
Given a vertex-weighted oriented graph, we can associate to it a set of monomials. We consider the toric ideal whose defining map is given by these monomials. We find a generating set for the toric ideal for certain classes of graphs which…
A Hamiltonian path (a Hamiltonian cycle) in a graph is a path (a cycle, respectively) that traverses all of its vertices. The problems of deciding their existence in an input graph are well-known to be NP-complete, in fact, they belong to…
Let ${\cal G}=(G,w)$ be a weighted simple finite connected graph, that is, let $G$ be a simple finite connected graph endowed with a function $w$ from the set of the edges of $G$ to the set of real numbers. For any subgraph $G'$ of $G$, we…
Given a set of points in the plane, we want to establish a connection network between these points that consists of several disjoint layers. Motivated by sensor networks, we want that each layer is spanning and plane, and that no edge is…
In 1981, Duffus, Gould, and Jacobson showed that every connected graph either has a Hamiltonian path, or contains a claw ($K_{1,3}$) or a net (a fixed six-vertex graph) as an induced subgraph. This implies that subject to being connected,…
A simple and accurate relationship is demonstrated that links the average shortest path, nodes, and edges in a complex network. This relationship takes advantage of the concept of link density and shows a large improvement in fitting…
In recent work, the authors developed a simple method of constructing topological spaces from certain well-behaved partially ordered sets -- those coming from sequences of relations between finite sets. This method associates a given poset…
We explore the connections between the linear algebra of symmetric matrices over GF(2) and the circuit theory of 4-regular graphs. In particular, we show that the equivalence relation on simple graphs generated by local complementation can…
A famous conjecture of Lov\'asz states that every connected vertex-transitive graph contains a Hamilton path. In this article we confirm the conjecture in the case that the graph is dense and sufficiently large. In fact, we show that such…
We state the graph-theoretic computational problem of finding tight paths in a directed, edge-weighted graph, as well as its simplification of finding tight pairs. These problems are motivated by the need of algorithms that find so-called…
We compute the Betti numbers of the edge rings of multi-path graphs using the \emph{induced-subgraph approach} introduced in \cite{WL1}. Here, a multi-path graph refers to a simple graph composed of several paths that have the same starting…
For any $S\subset [n]$, we compute the probability that the subgraph of $\mathcal{G}_{n,d}$ induced by $S$ is a given graph $H$ on the vertex set $S$. The result holds for any $d=o(n^{1/3})$ and is further extended to $\mathcal{G}_{{\bf…
A set $X$ of vertices of an acyclic digraph $D$ is convex if $X\neq \emptyset$ and there is no directed path between vertices of $X$ which contains a vertex not in $X$. A set $X$ is connected if $X\neq \emptyset$ and the underlying…
By natural way the hierarchy structure is introduced on directed graphs with weighted adjacencies. Embedded system of algebras of subsets of the set of vertices of such digraph and it's consolidations, which vertices are the elementary sets…
We show that under certain conditions the square of the graph obtained by identifying a vertex in two graphs with hamiltonian square is also hamiltonian. Using this result, we prove necessary and sufficient conditions for hamiltonicity of…
We introduce the weighted path homology on the category of weigh\-ted directed hypergraphs and describe conditions of homotopy invariance of weighted path homology groups. We give several examples that explain the nontriviality of the…
We study deterministic constructions of graphs for which the unique completion of low rank matrices is generically possible regardless of the values of the entries. We relate the completability to the presence of some patterns (particular…
