To address the peculiarities of directed and/or signed graphs, new Laplacian operators have emerged. For instance, in the case of directionality, we encounter the magnetic operator, dilation (which is underexplored), operators based on…
How might one "reduce" a graph? That is, generate a smaller graph that preserves the global structure at the expense of discarding local details? There has been extensive work on both graph sparsification (removing edges) and graph…
In this article we consider resistance matrix of a connected graph. For unweighted graph we study some necessary and sufficient conditions for resistance regular graphs. Also we find some relationship between Laplacian matrix and resistance…
The concept of effective resistance, originally introduced in electrical circuit theory, has been extended to the setting of graphs by interpreting each edge as a resistor. In this context, the effective resistance between two vertices…
The pseudoinverse of a graph Laplacian is used in many applications and fields, such as for instance in the computation of the effective resistance in electrical networks, in the calculation of the hitting/commuting times for a Markov chain…
The total effective resistance, also called the Kirchhoff index, provides a robustness measure for a graph $G$. We consider two optimization problems of adding $k$ new edges to $G$ such that the resulting graph has minimal total effective…
We study the linearization of a discrete transportation distance between probability distributions on finite weighted graphs originally due to Maas (``Gradient flows of the entropy for finite {M}arkov chains,'' J. Funct. Anal. 261(8), 2011)…
Effective resistances are ubiquitous in graph algorithms and network analysis. In this work, we study sublinear time algorithms to approximate the effective resistance of an adjacent pair $s$ and $t$. We consider the classical adjacency…
This paper challenges the convention of using graph-theoretic shortest distance in stress-based graph drawing. We propose a new paradigm based on resistance distance, derived from the graph Laplacian's spectrum, which better captures global…
Effective resistance is a distance between vertices of a graph that is both theoretically interesting and useful in applications. We study a variant of effective resistance called the biharmonic distance. While the effective resistance…
Directed graphs can be studied by their associated directed flag complex. The homology of this complex has been successful in applications as a topological invariant for digraphs. Through comparison with path homology theory, we derive a…
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…
Directed graphs have been widely used in Community Question Answering services (CQAs) to model asymmetric relationships among different types of nodes in CQA graphs, e.g., question, answer, user. Asymmetric transitivity is an essential…
$ \def\vecc#1{\boldsymbol{#1}} $We design a polynomial time algorithm that for any weighted undirected graph $G = (V, E,\vecc w)$ and sufficiently large $\delta > 1$, partitions $V$ into subsets $V_1, \ldots, V_h$ for some $h\geq 1$, such…
Following our work on the graph of the Weierstrass function, in the spirit of those of J. Kigami and R. S. Strichartz, which enabled us to build a Laplacian on the aforementioned graph, it was natural to go further and give the related…
Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and edge set $E(G)$. The resistance distance $R_G(x,y)$ between two vertices $x,y$ of $G$ is defined to be the effective resistance between the two vertices in the corresponding…

The goal of graph inference is to design algorithms for learning properties of a hidden graph using queries to an oracle that returns information about the graph. Graph reconstruction, verification, and property testing are all types of…
