We prove that if $D$ is a digraph of maximum outdegree and indegree at least $k$, and minimum semidegree at least $k/2$ that contains no oriented $4$-cycles, then $D$ contains each oriented tree $T$ with~$k$ arcs. This can be slightly…
A digraph $G$ is weightable if its edges can be weighted with real numbers such that the total weight in each directed cycle equals 1. There are several equivalent conditions: that $G$ admits a 0/1-weighting with the same property, or that…
The family of Directed Acyclic Graphs as well as some related graphs are analyzed with respect to extremal behavior in relation with the family of intersection graphs for families of boxes with transverse intersection.
An algorithm for generating the structure of a directed acyclic graph from data using the notion of causal input lists is presented. The algorithm manipulates the ordering of the variables with operations which very much resemble arc…
We prove that non-hyperbolic non-renormalizable quadratic polynomials are expansion inducing. For renormalizable polynomials a counterpart of this statement is that in the case of unbounded combinatorics renormalized mappings become almost…
After a brief review of the key theorems concerning recurrent sequences, we give an explicit computation of the inverse of the Vandermonde matrix. This will then be used to derive sub-exponential decay error terms in the ergodic theorem of…
Let $D$ be an directed graph on $p\geq 10$ vertices with minimum degree at least $p-1$ and minimum semi-degree at least $ p/2 -1$. We present a detailed proof of the following result [13]: The digraph $D$ is pancyclic, unless some extremal…
In this note, we provide a proof of a technical result of Erd\H{o}s and Hajnal about the existence of disjoint type graphs with no odd cycles. We also prove that this result is sharp in a certain sense.
A polynomial-time exact algorithm for counting the number of directed acyclic graphs in a Markov equivalence class was recently given by Wien\"obst, Bannach, and Li\'skiewicz (AAAI 2021). In this paper, we consider the more general problem…
We show that every directed graph with minimum out-degree at least $18k$ contains at least $k$ vertex disjoint cycles. This is an improvement over the result of Alon who showed this result for digraphs of minimum out-degree at least $64k$.…
In directed graphs, a cycle can be seen as a structure that allows its vertices to loop back to themselves, or as a structure that allows pairs of vertices to reach each other through distinct paths. We extend these concepts to temporal…
Let $\Phi(x,y)$ be a bivariate polynomial with complex coefficients. The zeroes of $\Phi(x,y)$ are given a combinatorial structure by considering them as arcs of a directed graph $G(\Phi)$. This paper studies some relationship between the…
Directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) are commonly used to model causal relationships among random variables. In general, learning the DAG structure is both computationally and statistically challenging. Moreover, without additional information,…
We establish analytically several new identities connecting enumerators of different types of circulant graphs of prime, twice prime and prime-squared orders. In particular, it is shown that the semi-sum of the number of undirected…
Following Penrose, we introduce a family of graph functions defined in terms of contractions of certain products of symmetric tensors along the edges of a graph. Special cases of these functions enumerate edge colorings and cycles of…
In this report, we describe a novel graph invariant for computational graphs (colored directed acylic graphs) and how we used it to generate all distinct computational graphs up to isomorphism for small graphs. The algorithm iteratively…
The cycle space of a graph corresponds to the kernel of an incidence matrix. We investigate an analogous subspace for digraphs. In the case of digraphs of graphs, where every edge is replaced by two oppositely directed arcs, we give a…
We establish closed-form expansions for the universal edge elimination polynomial of paths and cycles and their generating functions. This includes closed-form expansions for the bivariate matching polynomial, the bivariate chromatic…
We present a method of constructing non-normal very ample polytopes as a segmental fibration of unimodular graph polytopes. In many cases we explicitly compute their invariants - Hilbert function, Ehrhart polynomial, gap vector. In…
The periodic discrete Toda equation defined over finite fields has been studied. We obtained the finite graph structures constructed by the network of states where edges denote possible time evolutions. We simplify the graphs by introducing…
