Recurrence networks are complex networks, constructed from time series data, having several practical applications. Though their properties when constructed with the threshold value \epsilon chosen at or just above the percolation threshold…
We present several new results on the feasibility of inferring the hidden states in strongly-connected trackable weak models. Here, a weak model is a directed graph in which each node is assigned a set of colors which may be emitted when…
Using a coupling argument, we establish a general weak law of large numbers for functionals of binomial point processes in d-dimensional space, with a limit that depends explicitly on the (possibly non-uniform) density of the point process.…
We solve the weak percolation problem for multiplex networks with overlapping edges. In weak percolation, a vertex belongs to a connected component if at least one of its neighbors in each of the layers is in this component. This is a…
Graphons are analytic objects representing limits of convergent sequences of graphs. Lov\'asz and Szegedy conjectured that every finitely forcible graphon, i.e. any graphon determined by finitely many graph densities, has a simple…
Convexity properties of error rates of a class of decoders, including the ML/min-distance one as a special case, are studied for arbitrary constellations, bit mapping and coding. Earlier results obtained for the AWGN channel are extended to…
In this paper we study the toughness of Random Apollonian Networks (RANs), a random graph model which generates planar graphs with power-law properties. We consider their important characteristics: every RAN is a uniquely representable…
The construction of $r$-nets offers a powerful tool in computational and metric geometry. We focus on high-dimensional spaces and present a new randomized algorithm which efficiently computes approximate $r$-nets with respect to Euclidean…
In 1998 Burago and Kleiner and (independently) McMullen gave examples of separated nets in Euclidean space which are non-bilipschitz equivalent to the integer lattice. We study weaker notions of equivalence of separated nets and demonstrate…
We obtain algorithms for computing Tverberg partitions based on centerpoint approximations. This applies to a wide range of convexity spaces, from the classic Euclidean setting to geodetic convexity in graphs. In the Euclidean setting, we…
In this paper, we investigate some properties of the Perron vector of connected graphs. These results are used to characterize that all extremal connected graphs with having the minimum (maximum) spectra radius among all connected graphs of…
We report partial progress on the weak coupling limit behavior of observables for the periodic quantum Lorentz gas. Our results indicate that for certain observables, the limit behavior is trivial and can be described via a transport…
Properties of two classes of generally convex sets in the n-dimentional real Euclidean space, called m-semiconvex and weakly m-semiconvex, 1<=m<n, are investigated in the present work. In particular, it is established that an open set with…
Ropelength and embedding thickness are related measures of geometric complexity of classical knots and links in Euclidean space. In their recent work, Freedman and Krushkal posed a question regarding lower bounds for embedding thickness of…
We study the problems of bounding the number weak and strong independent sets in $r$-uniform, $d$-regular, $n$-vertex linear hypergraphs with no cross-edges. In the case of weak independent sets, we provide an upper bound that is tight up…
Recently the problem of classes of vulnerable vertices (represented by colors) in complex networks has been discussed, where all vertices with the same vulnerability are prone to fail together. Utilizing redundant paths each avoiding one…
As introduced by Bollob\'as, a graph $G$ is weakly $H$-saturated if the complete graph $K_n$ is obtained by iteratively completing copies of $H$ minus an edge. For all graphs $H$, we obtain an asymptotic lower bound for the critical…
In this paper, a lower bound on the capacity of wireless ad hoc erasure networks is derived in closed form in the canonical case where $n$ nodes are uniformly and independently distributed in the unit area square. The bound holds almost…
Among all characteristics exhibited by natural and man-made networks the small-world phenomenon is surely the most relevant and popular. But despite its significance, a reliable and comparable quantification of the question `how small is a…
The notion of super weak compactness for subsets of Banach spaces is a strengthening of the weak compactness that can be described as a local version of super-reflexivity. A recent result of K. Tu which establishes that the closed convex…
