We provide formulas for generating functions of many types of paths in various rooted tree structures. We compute the $k$th moment of the generating functions for various types of vertical paths. In two specific familes of trees we find…

We prove that it is decidable if a finitely based permutation class contains infinitely many simple permutations, and establish an unavoidable substructure result for simple permutations: every sufficiently long simple permutation contains…

Reconfiguring two shortest paths in a graph means modifying one shortest path to the other by changing one vertex at a time so that all the intermediate paths are also shortest paths. This problem has several natural applications, namely:…

Consider lattice paths in Z^2 taking unit steps north (N) and east (E). Fix positive integers r,s and put an equivalence relation on points of Z^2 by letting v,w be equivalent if v - w = m (r,s) for some m in Z. Call a lattice path valid if…

A square of a path on $k$ vertices is a directed path $x_1\ldots x_k$, where $x_i$ is directed to $x_{i+2}$, for every $i\in \{1,\ldots, k-1\}$. Recently, Yuster showed that any tournament on $n$ vertices contains a square of a path of…

The number of walks from one vertex to another in a finite graph can be counted by the adjacency matrix. In this paper, we prove two theorems that connect the graph Laplacian with two types of walks in a graph. By defining two types of…

On a smooth connected manifold, we consider all possible locally elliptic and locally bounded measurable coefficient Riemannian metrics called rough Riemannian metrics. We equip this set with an extended metric which is connected if and…

One can recover vectors from $\mathbb{R}^m$ with arbitrary precision, using only $\lceil \log_2(m+1)\rceil +1$ continuous measurements that are chosen adaptively. This surprising result is explained and discussed, and we present…

For a curve T:[0,1] -> R^n, we consider the directions theta in R^n which T "misses" the most and quantify this, as a function of the L_2 norm of T's differential.

We consider problems in which a simple path of fixed length, in an undirected graph, is to be shifted from a start position to a goal position by moves that add an edge to either end of the path and remove an edge from the other end. We…

We show that if a measure of dimension $s$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ admits $(p,q)$ Fourier restriction for some endpoint exponents allowed by its dimension, namely $q=\tfrac{s}{d}p'$ for some $p>1$, then it is either absolutely continuous or…

Although the characterization of ring derivations has an extensive literature, up to now, all of the characterizations have had the following form: additivity and another property imply that the function in question is a derivation. The aim…

We derive a path counting formula for two-dimensional lattice path model on a plane with filter restrictions. A filter is a line that restricts the path passing it to one of possible directions. Moreover, each path that touches this line is…

Computing a (short) path between two vertices is one of the most fundamental primitives in graph algorithmics. In recent years, the study of paths in temporal graphs, that is, graphs where the vertex set is fixed but the edge set changes…

We introduce an equivalence relation on the set of Dyck paths and some operations on them. We determine a formula for the cardinality of those equivalence classes and use this information to obtain a combinatorial formula for the number of…

Let $f(n,H)$ denote the maximum number of copies of $H$ possible in an $n$-vertex planar graph. The function $f(n,H)$ has been determined when $H$ is a cycle of length $3$ or $4$ by Hakimi and Schmeichel and when $H$ is a complete bipartite…

This paper gives a partial confirmation of a conjecture of P. Agarwal, S. Har-Peled, M. Sharir, and K. Varadarajan that the total curvature of a shortest path on the boundary of a convex polyhedron in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space…

Let r be a real number, 0<r<1, given as a dual number. With the sequence of "0", "1" we define a path in a hexagonal lattice. Relations between the properties of r and its path are considered. Generalisations to other bases and lattices.

Let $p(m)$ (respectively, $q(m)$) be the maximum number $k$ such that any tree with $m$ edges can be transformed by contracting edges (respectively, by removing vertices) into a caterpillar with $k$ edges. We derive closed-form expressions…

We study the possibility of a continuous extension of a class of mappings to an isolated point on the boundary of a domain. We show that if some characteristic of this mapping is integrable on almost all spheres in the neighborhood of at…
