A tree with at most k leaves is called k-ended tree, and a tree with exactly k leaves is called k-end tree, where a leaf is a vertex of degree one. Contraction of a graph G along the edge e means deleting the edge e and identifying its end…

An electrical network with the structure of a random tree is considered: starting from a root vertex, in one iteration each leaf (a vertex with zero or one adjacent edges) of the tree is extended by either a single edge with probability $p$…

Let $H=(V,F)$ be a simple hypergraph without loops. $H$ is called linear if $|f\cap g|\le 1$ for any $f,g\in F$ with $f\not=g$. The $2$-section of $H$, denoted by $[H]_2$, is a graph with $V([H]_2)=V$ and for any $ u,v\in V([H]_2)$, $uv\in…

Suppose that $[n]=\left\{0,1,2,...,n\right\}$ is a set of non-negative integers and $h,k \in [n]$. The $L(h,k)$-labeling of graph $G$ is the function $l:V(G)\rightarrow[n]$ such that $\left|l(u)-l(v)\right|\geq h$ if the distance $d(u,v)$…

A vertex $v$ of a connected graph $G$ is said to be a boundary vertex of $G$ if for some other vertex $u$ of $G$, no neighbor of $v$ is further away from $u$ than $v$. The boundary $\partial(G)$ of $G$ is the set of all of its boundary…

A random geometric graph, $G(n,r)$, is formed by choosing $n$ points independently and uniformly at random in a unit square; two points are connected by a straight-line edge if they are at Euclidean distance at most $r$. For a given…

An analytical approach is developed to obtain the exact expressions for the two-point resistance, and the total effective resistance of the complete graph minus $N$ edges of the opposite vertices. These expressions are written in terms of…

In the companion paper [Linear rank-width of distance-hereditary graphs I. A polynomial-time algorithm, Algorithmica 78(1):342--377, 2017], we presented a characterization of the linear rank-width of distance-hereditary graphs, from which…

We obtain a general formula for the resistance distance (or effective resistance) between any pair of nodes in a general family of graphs which we call flower graphs. Flower graphs are obtained from identifying nodes of multiple copies of a…

For a simple graph $G=(V,E)$ and edge $e\in E$, the effective resistance is defined as a ratio $\frac{\tau(G/e)}{\tau(G)}$, where $\tau(G)$ denotes the number of spanning trees in $G$. We resolve the inverse problem for the effective…

Let $A(G)$ be the adjacency matrix of graph $G$ with eigenvalues $\lambda_1(G), \lambda_2(G),..., \lambda_n(G)$ in non-increasing order. The number $S_k(G):=\sum_{i=1}^{n}\lambda_i^{k}(G)\, (k=0, 1,..., n-1)$ is called the $k$th spectral…

Simplifications of a result from a prior paper concerning the electric resistance between points in a distance-regular graph are given. In particular, we prove that the maximal resistance between points is bounded by twice the resistance…

Let $G$ be a finite, simple connected graph. The average distance of a vertex $v$ of $G$ is the arithmetic mean of the distances from $v$ to all other vertices of $G$. The remoteness $\rho(G)$ of $G$ is the maximum of the average distances…

This paper presents an introduction and expository account of a beautiful, current, and active application of recursions to the computation of resistance distance. Resistance distance, also referred to as effective resistance, is a…

We present measure theoretic rigidity for graphs of first Betti number b>1 in terms of measures on the boundary of a 2b-regular tree, that we make explicit in terms of the edge-adjacency and closed-walk structure of the graph. We prove that…

Geometric graphs appear in many real-world data sets, such as road networks, sensor networks, and molecules. We investigate the notion of distance between embedded graphs and present a metric to measure the distance between two geometric…

Let $k$, $d$ be a positive integer, $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$, $T$ be a tree. The leaf distance of a tree is defined as the minimum distance between any two leaves. For $v\in V(T)$, the leaf degree of $v$ in $T$ is the number of…

The resistance $r(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of edges that have to be removed from $G$ to obtain a graph which is $\Delta(G)$-edge-colorable. The paper relates the resistance to other parameters that measure how far is a graph…

The Steiner distance of a set of vertices in a graph is the fewest number of edges in any connected subgraph containing those vertices. The order-$k$ Steiner distance hypermatrix of an $n$-vertex graph is the $n \times \cdots \times n$ ($k$…
