In this paper, we demonstrate a conflicting relationship between two crucial properties---controllability and robustness---in linear dynamical networks of diffusively coupled agents. In particular, for any given number of nodes $N$ and…
In the Vector Connectivity problem we are given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$, a demand function $\phi\colon V\to\{0,\ldots,d\}$, and an integer $k$. The question is whether there exists a set $S$ of at most $k$ vertices such that every…

In the Survivable Network Design problem (SNDP), we are given an undirected graph $G(V,E)$ with costs on edges, along with a connectivity requirement $r(u,v)$ for each pair $u,v$ of vertices. The goal is to find a minimum-cost subset $E^*$…
The graph identification problem consists of discovering the interactions among nodes in a network given their state/feature trajectories. This problem is challenging because the behavior of a node is coupled to all the other nodes by the…
A graph is said to be globally rigid in $d$-dimensional space if almost all of its embeddings are unique up to isometries. If a graph has enough automorphisms to send any of its vertices into any other, then it is called vertex-transitive.…

A connected graph $G$ with at least $2m + 2n + 2$ vertices which contains a perfect matching is $E(m, n)$-{\it extendable}, if for any two sets of disjoint independent edges $M$ and $N$ with $|M| = m$ and $|N|= n$, there is a perfect…
Given a simplicial complex $K$, we consider several notions of geometric complexity of embeddings of $K$ in a Euclidean space ${\mathbb R}^d$: thickness, distortion, and refinement complexity (the minimal number of simplices needed for a PL…
We study augmenting a plane Euclidean network with a segment, called a shortcut, to minimize the largest distance between any two points along the edges of the resulting network. Problems of this type have received considerable attention…
We study the space complexity of computing a sparse subgraph of a directed graph that certifies connectivity in the streaming and distributed models. Formally, for a directed graph $G=(V,A)$ and $k\in \mathbb{N}$, a $k$-node strong…
It is shown that a simple graph which is embeddable in the real projective plane is minimally 3-rigid if and only if it is (3,6)-tight. Moreover the topologically uncontractible embedded graphs of this type are constructible from one of 8…
This paper explores the problem of page migration in ring networks. A ring network is a connected graph, in which each node is connected with exactly two other nodes. In this problem, one of the nodes in a given network holds a page of size…
We consider the classic problem of Network Reliability. A network is given together with a source vertex, one or more target vertices, and probabilities assigned to each of the edges. Each edge appears in the network with its associated…

We study robustness verification of neural networks via metric algebraic geometry. For polynomial neural networks, certifying a robustness radius amounts to computing the distance to the algebraic decision boundary. We use the Euclidean…
Network reliability is a well-studied problem that requires to measure the probability that a target node is reachable from a source node in a probabilistic (or uncertain) graph, i.e., a graph where every edge is assigned a probability of…
