We introduce the notion of a bounded weight function on a language, and show that the set of bounded weight functions on a regular language is a rational polyhedral cone. We study the cell recognised by a bounded weight function (that is,…

Automatic workflow generation is the process of automatically synthesizing sequences of LLM calls, tool invocations, and post-processing steps for complex end-to-end tasks. Most prior methods cast this task as an optimization problem with…

By a {\em Riemann function} we mean a function $f\colon{\mathbb Z}^n\to{\mathbb Z}$ such that $f({\bf d})$ is equals $0$ for $d_1+\cdots+d_n$ sufficiently small, and equals $d_1+\cdots+d_n+C$ for a constant, $C$, for $d_1+\cdots+d_n$…

A graph $G$ is well-covered if all its maximal independent sets are of the same cardinality. Assume that a weight function $w$ is defined on its vertices. Then $G$ is $w$-well-covered if all maximal independent sets are of the same weight.…

In this paper we investigate the growth rate of the number of all possible paths in graphs with respect to their length in an exact analytical way. Apart from the typical rates of growth, i.e. exponential or polynomial, we identify…

We present a new notion of limits of weighted directed graphs of growing size based on convergence of their random quotients. These limits are specified in terms of random exchangeable measures on the unit square. We call our limits…

The paper concerns the automorphism groups of Cayley graphs over cyclic groups which have a rational spectrum (rational circulant graphs for short). With the aid of the techniques of Schur rings it is shown that the problem is equivalent to…

The connective constant $\mu(G)$ of an infinite transitive graph $G$ is the exponential growth rate of the number of self-avoiding walks from a given origin. In earlier work of Grimmett and Li, a locality theorem was proved for connective…

In this paper, we study the asymptotics of several growth functions related to twisted conjugacy on virtually abelian groups. First, we study the twisted conjugacy growth function, which counts the number of twisted conjugacy classes…

Let $G =<S>$ be a solvable permutation group of the symmetric group $S_n$ given as input by the generating set $S$. We give a deterministic polynomial-time algorithm that computes an \emph{expanding generating set} of size $\tilde{O}(n^2)$…

We study the polyregular string-to-string functions, which are certain functions of polynomial output size that can be described using automata and logic. We describe a system of combinators that generates exactly these functions. Unlike…

Our work introduces an approach for estimating the contribution of attachment mechanisms to the formation of growing networks. We present a generic model in which growth is driven by the continuous attachment of new nodes according to…

We initiate the study of the \emph{twisted conjugacy growth series} of a finitely generated group, the formal power series associated to the twisted conjugacy growth function. Our main result is that, for a virtually abelian group, this…

We determine the factorial growth rate of the number of finite index subgroups of right-angled Artin groups as a function of the index. This turns out to depend solely on the independence number of the defining graph. We also make a…

While automata theory often concerns itself with regular predicates, relations corresponding to acceptance by a finite state automaton, in this article we study the regular functions, such relations which are also functions in the…
