In this paper, controllability of systems defined on graphs is discussed. We consider the problem of controllability of the network for a family of matrices carrying the structure of an underlying directed graph. A one-to-one correspondence…

Threshold graphs are graphs that can be characterized in a number of different ways. For example, they are graphs that are $P_4,\ C_4,\ 2K_2$--free. They may also be characterized by a finite sequence of positive integers $a_1, \ldots,…

A metrized graph is a compact singular 1-manifold endowed with a metric. A given metrized graph can be modelled by a family of weighted combinatorial graphs. If one chooses a sequence of models from this family such that the vertices become…

We show that for every $n$-vertex graph with at least one edge, its treewidth is greater than or equal to $n \lambda_{2} / (\Delta + \lambda_{2}) - 1$, where $\Delta$ and $\lambda_{2}$ are the maximum degree and the second smallest…

Typically, graph structures are represented by one of three different matrices: the adjacency matrix, the unnormalised and the normalised graph Laplacian matrices. The spectral (eigenvalue) properties of these different matrices are…

Laplacian operators on finite compact metric graphs are considered under the assumption that matching conditions at graph vertices are of $\delta$ and $\delta'$ types. An infinite series of trace formulae is obtained which link together two…

We address the study of controllability of a closed quantum system whose dynamical Lie algebra is generated by adjacency matrices of graphs. We characterize a large family of graphs that renders a system controllable. The key property is a…

The eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix for a class of directed graphs with both positive and negative weights are studied. First, a class of directed signed graphs is investigated in which one pair of nodes (either connected or not) is…

Network controllability is a powerful tool to study causal relationships in complex systems and identify the driver nodes for steering the network dynamics into desired states. However, due to ill-posed conditions, results become unreliable…
