Jigsaw percolation is a model for the process of solving puzzles within a social network, which was recently proposed by Brummitt, Chatterjee, Dey and Sivakoff. In the model there are two graphs on a single vertex set (the `people' graph…

We show that the growth of a unimodular random rooted tree $(T,o)$ of degree bounded by $d$ always exists, assuming its upper growth passes the critical threshold $\sqrt{d-1}$. This complements Timar's work who showed the possible…

In independent bond percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with parameter $p$, if one removes the vertices of the infinite cluster (and incident edges), for which values of $p$ does the remaining graph contain an infinite cluster?…

We tackle two long-standing problems related to re-expansions in heuristic search algorithms. For graph search, A* can require $\Omega(2^{n})$ expansions, where $n$ is the number of states within the final $f$ bound. Existing algorithms…

We investigate the possibility of proving upper bounds on Hadwiger's number of a graph with partial information, mirroring several known upper bounds for the chromatic number. For each such bound we determine whether the corresponding bound…

We introduce block-tree graphs as a framework for deriving efficient algorithms on graphical models. We define block-tree graphs as a tree-structured graph where each node is a cluster of nodes such that the clusters in the graph are…

In this paper we establish all extremal graphs with respect to augmented eccentric connectivity index among all (simple connected) graphs, among trees and among trees with perfect matching. For graphs that turn out to be extremal explicit…

We study various improved staggered quark Dirac operators on quenched gluon backgrounds in lattice QCD. We find a clear separation of the spectrum of eigenvalues into high chirality, would-be zero modes and others, in accordance with the…

In 1980 Rostislav Grigorchuk constructed a group $G$ of intermediate growth, and later obtained the following estimates on its growth $\gamma$: $e^{\sqrt{n}}\precsim\gamma(n)\precsim e^{n^\beta},$ where $\beta=\log_{32}(31)\approx0.991$. He…

For critical bond-percolation on high-dimensional torus, this paper proves sharp lower bounds on the size of the largest cluster, removing a logarithmic correction in the lower bound in Heydenreich and van der Hofstad (2007). This…

Although research on the control of networked systems has grown considerably, graph-theoretic and algorithmic studies on matrix-weighted graphs remain limited. To bridge this gap in the literature, this work introduces two algorithms-the…

This paper studies the structure of graphs with given tree-width and excluding a fixed complete bipartite subgraph, which generalises the bounded degree setting. We give a new structural description of such graphs in terms of so-called…

The Ferrers bound conjecture is a natural graph-theoretic extension of the enumeration of spanning trees for Ferrers graphs. We document the current status of the conjecture and provide a further conjecture which implies it.

Lower bounds on the proof-theoretic strength of the graph minor theorem were found over 30 years ago by Friedman, Robertson and Seymour 1987, but upper bounds have always been elusive. We present recently found upper bounds on the graph…
