The individualization-refinement paradigm provides a strong toolbox for testing isomorphism of two graphs and indeed, the currently fastest implementations of isomorphism solvers all follow this approach. While these solvers are fast in…
Most state-of-the-art graph kernels only take local graph properties into account, i.e., the kernel is computed with regard to properties of the neighborhood of vertices or other small substructures. On the other hand, kernels that do take…
It is proved that the Weisfeiler-Leman dimension of the class of permutation graphs is at most 18. Previously it was only known that this dimension is finite (Gru{\ss}ien, 2017).
We obtain a new bound connecting the first non--trivial eigenvalue of the Laplace operator of a graph and the diameter of the graph, which is effective for graphs with small diameter or for graphs, having the number of maximal paths…
In this paper we combine many of the standard and more recent algebraic techniques for testing isomorphism of finite groups (GpI) with combinatorial techniques that have typically been applied to Graph Isomorphism. In particular, we show…
Let the group $G$ act transitively on the finite set $\Omega$, and let $S \subseteq G$ be closed under taking inverses. The Schreier graph $Sch(G \circlearrowleft \Omega,S)$ is the graph with vertex set $\Omega$ and edge set $\{…
The number of perfect matchings of a $k$-pfaffian graph can be counted by computing a linear combination of the pfaffians of $k$ matrices. The pfaffian number of a graph $G$ is the smallest integer $k$ such that $G$ is $k$-pfaffian. We…
We study the unitary Cayley graph of a matrix semiring. We find bounds for its diameter, clique number and independence number, and determine its girth. We also find the relationship between the diameter and the clique number of a unitary…
The majority of popular graph kernels is based on the concept of Haussler's $\mathcal{R}$-convolution kernel and defines graph similarities in terms of mutual substructures. In this work, we enrich these similarity measures by considering…
We improve upper bounds of F. R. K. Chung and of M. Lu, D. Wan, L.-P. Wang, X.-D. Zhang on the diameter of some Cayley graphs constructed from polynomials over finite fields.
In 2002, D. Fon-Der-Flaass constructed a prolific family of strongly regular graphs. In this paper, we prove that for infinitely many natural numbers $n$, this family contains $n^{\Omega(n^{2/3})}$ strongly regular $n$-vertex graphs $X$…
In recent years, we have seen several approaches to the graph isomorphism problem based on "generic" mathematical programming or algebraic (Gr\"obner basis) techniques. For most of these, lower bounds have been established. In fact, it has…
The Weisfeiler-Leman (WL) algorithm is a combinatorial procedure that computes colorings on graphs, which can often be used to detect their (non-)isomorphism. Particularly the 1- and 2-dimensional versions 1-WL and 2-WL have received much…
We study the diameter of the graph $G(w)$ of reduced words of an element $w$ in a Coxeter group $W$ whose edges correspond to applications of the Coxeter relations. We resolve conjectures of Reiner--Roichman and Dahlberg--Kim by proving a…
Both the combinatorial and the circuit diameters of polyhedra are of interest to the theory of linear programming for their intimate connection to a best-case performance of linear programming algorithms. We study the diameters of dual…
We prove that the combinatorial Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm of dimension $(3k+4)$ is a complete isomorphism test for the class of all graphs of rank width at most $k$. Rank width is a graph invariant that, similarly to tree width, measures…
A new algebraic Cayley graph is constructed using finite fields. Its connectedness and diameter bound are studied via Weil's estimate for character sums. These graphs provide a new source of expander graphs, extending classical results of…
In this paper, we show that computing canonical labelings of graphs of bounded rank-width is in $\textsf{TC}^{2}$. Our approach builds on the framework of K\"obler & Verbitsky (CSR 2008), who established the analogous result for graphs of…
We present a novel approach for graph classification based on tabularizing graph data via new variants of the Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm and then applying methods for tabular data. The variants are obtained by modifying the underlying…
The diameter of a graph measures the maximal distance between any pair of vertices. The diameters of many small-world networks, as well as a variety of other random graph models, grow logarithmically in the number of nodes. In contrast, the…
