A Monge directed acyclic graph (DAG) $G$ on the nodes $1,2,\cdots,N$ has edges $\left( i,j\right) $ for $1\leq i<j\leq N$ carrying submodular edge-lengths. Finding a shortest $M$-link path from $1$ to $N$ in $G$ for any given $1<M<N-1$ has…

Given a weighted digraph $G=(V,E,w)$, a stochastic embedding into DAGs is a distribution $\mathcal{D}$ over pairs of DAGs $(D_1,D_2)$ such that for every $u,v$: (1) the reachability is preserved: $u\rightsquigarrow_G v$ (i.e., $v$ is…

We analyze the identifiability of directed acyclic graphs in the case of partial excitation and measurement. We consider an additive model where the nonlinear functions located in the edges depend only on a past input, and we analyze the…

Let $d,n\in \mathbb{N}$ be such that $d=\omega(1)$, and $d\le n^{1-a}$ for some constant $a>0$. Consider a $d$-regular graph $G=(V, E)$ and the random graph process that starts with the empty graph $G(0)$ and at each step $G(i)$ is obtained…

This article introduces a new approach to discrete curvature based on the concept of effective resistances. We propose a curvature on the nodes and links of a graph and present the evidence for their interpretation as a curvature. Notably,…

Various models to quantify the reliability of a network have been studied where certain components of the graph may fail at random and the probability that the remaining graph is connected is the proxy for reliability. In this work we…

The existing research on robust Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) fails to acknowledge the significance of directed graphs in providing rich information about networks' inherent structure. This work presents the first investigation into the…

We consider simple loopless finite undirected graphs. Such a graph is called strongly regular with parameter set (v,k,l,m), for short a srg(v,k,l,m), iff it has exactly v vertices, each of them has exactly k neighbours, and the number of…

A plane graph is said to be a rectangular graph if each of its edges can be oriented horizontal or vertical, its internal regions are four-sided and it has a rectangular enclosure. If dual of a planar graph is a rectangular graph, then the…

It is shown that $S(G) = O\left(m/\log_2 m + d\right)$ pebbles are sufficient to pebble any DAG $G=(V,E)$, with $m$ edges and maximum in-degree $d$. It was previously known that $S(G) = O\left(d n/\log n\right)$. The result builds on two…

Let $H$ be a directed acyclic graph other than a rooted star. It is known that there are constants $c(H)$ and $C(H)$ such that the following holds for the complete directed graph $D_n$. There are at most $C\log n$ directed acyclic subgraphs…

For a directed graph $G$ without loops or parallel edges, let $\beta(G)$ denote the size of the smallest feedback arc set, i.e., the smallest subset $X \subset E(G)$ such that $G \sm X$ has no directed cycles. Let $\gamma(G)$ be the number…

The decomposition of a linkage into minimal components is a central tool of analysis and synthesis of linkages. In this paper we prove that every pinned d-isostatic (minimally rigid) graph (grounded linkage) has a unique decomposition into…

Graph embedding provides an efficient solution for graph analysis by converting the graph into a low-dimensional space which preserves the structure information. In contrast to the graph structure data, the i.i.d. node embedding can be…

The toughness of a graph $G$ is defined as the largest real number $t$ such that for any set $S\subseteq V(G)$ such that $G-S$ is disconnected, $S$ has at least $t$ times more elements than $G-S$ has components (unless $G$ is complete, in…

Suppose a finite, unweighted, combinatorial graph $G = (V,E)$ is the union of several (degree-)regular graphs which are then additionally connected with a few additional edges. $G$ will then have only a small number of vertices $v \in V$…

A flow graph $G=(V,E,s)$ is a directed graph with a distinguished start vertex $s$. The dominator tree $D$ of $G$ is a tree rooted at $s$, such that a vertex $v$ is an ancestor of a vertex $w$ if and only if all paths from $s$ to $w$…

A directed graph $G=(V,E)$ is strongly biconnected if $G$ is strongly connected and its underlying graph is biconnected. A strongly biconnected directed graph $G=(V,E)$ is called $2$-vertex-strongly biconnected if $|V|\geq 3$ and the…

Let ${\mathcal D}_{n,d}$ be the set of all $d$-regular directed graphs on $n$ vertices. Let $G$ be a graph chosen uniformly at random from ${\mathcal D}_{n,d}$ and $M$ be its adjacency matrix. We show that $M$ is invertible with probability…

For a directed graph $G$, let $\mathrm{mindeg}(G)$ be the minimum among in-degrees and out-degrees of all vertices of $G$. It is easy to see that $G$ contains a directed cycle of length at least $\mathrm{mindeg}(G)+1$. In this note, we show…
