We introduce a new graph polynomial that encodes interesting properties of graphs, for example, the number of matchings and the number of perfect matchings. Most importantly, for bipartite graphs the polynomial encodes the number of…
Let $R$ be a finite ring with identity. The unit graph (unitary Cayley graph) of $R$ is the graph with vertex set $R$, where two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent exactly whenever $x+y$ is a unit in $R$ ($x-y$ is a unit in $R$).…
A set of Pauli stings is well characterized by the graph that encodes its commutatitivity structure, i.e., by its frustration graph. This graph provides a natural interface between graph theory and quantum information, which we explore in…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of $k$-integral graphs. A graph $\Gamma$ is called $k$-integral if the extension degree of the splitting field of the characteristic polynomial of $\Gamma$ over rational field $\mathbb Q$ is equal to…
Highly regular graphs for which not all regularities are explainable by symmetries are fascinating creatures. Some of them like, e.g., the line graph of W.~Kantor's non-classical $\mathrm{GQ}(5^2,5)$, are stumbling stones for existing…
In this thesis we develop the cohomology of diagrams of algebras and then apply this to the cases of the $\lambda$-rings and the $\Psi$-rings. A diagram of algebras is a functor from a small category to some category of algebras. For an…
Sidorenko's conjecture asserts that every bipartite graph $H$ has the property that, for any host graph $G$, the homomorphism density from $H$ to $G$ is asymptotically at least as large as in a quasirandom graph with the same edge density…
We define a diagram associated to any algebraic connection on a vector bundle on a Zariski open subset of the Riemann sphere, extending the definition of Boalch-Yamakawa to the general case featuring several irregular singularities,…
Using a result of Vdovina, we may associate to each complete connected bipartite graph $\kappa$ a $2$-dimensional square complex, which we call a tile complex, whose link at each vertex is $\kappa$. We regard the tile complex in two…
We introduce a new topological invariant of complex line arrangements in the complex projective plane, derived from the interaction between their complement and the boundary of a regular neighbourhood. The motivation is to identify Zariski…
We show that any two Hadamard graphs on the same number of vertices are quantum isomorphic. This follows from a more general recipe for showing quantum isomorphism of graphs arising from certain association schemes. The main result is built…
We study profinite actions of residually finite groups in terms of weak containment. We show that two strongly ergodic profinite actions of a group are weakly equivalent if and only if they are isomorphic. This allows us to construct…
We consider a natural graph operation $\Omega_k$ that is a certain inverse (formally: the right adjoint) to taking the k-th power of a graph. We show that it preserves the topology (the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-homotopy type) of the box complex, a…
Graphical designs are subsets of vertices of a graph that perfectly average a selected set of eigenvectors of the Graph Laplacian. We show that in highly-structured graphs, graphical designs can coincide with highly structured and…
We develop a theory of graph algebras over general fields. This is modeled after the theory developed by Freedman, Lov\'asz and Schrijver in [22] for connection matrices, in the study of graph homomorphism functions over real edge weight…
We show that every graph continuous family of unbounded operators in a Hilbert space becomes Riesz continuous after one-sided multiplication by an appropriate family of unitary operators. This result provides a simple definition of the…
Recently, Dasbach, Futer, Kalfagianni, Lin, and Stoltzfus extended the notion of a Tait graph by associating a set of ribbon graphs (or equivalently, embedded graphs) to a link diagram. Here we focus on Seifert graphs, which are the ribbon…
We develop a theory of covering digraphs, similar to the theory of covering spaces. By applying this theory to Cayley digraphs, we build a "bridge" between GLMY-theory and group homology theory, which helps to reduce path homology…
We extend the theory of combinatorial link Floer homology to a class of oriented spatial graphs called transverse spatial graphs. To do this, we define the notion of a grid diagram representing a transverse spatial graph, which we call a…
We develop a general method for computing the homological Euler characteristic of finite index subgroups G of GL_m(O_K) where O_K is the ring of integers in a number field K. With this method we find, that for large, explicitly computed…
