Let $G$ be an edge-colored graph, a walk in $G$ is said to be a properly colored walk iff each pair of consecutive edges have different colors, including the first and the last edges in case that the walk be closed. Let $H$ be a graph…
In the total domination game played on a graph $G$, players Dominator and Staller alternately select vertices of $G$, as long as possible, such that each vertex chosen increases the number of vertices totally dominated. Dominator (Staller)…
We present analytical treatment of quantum walks on a cycle graph. The investigation is based on a realistic physical model of the graph in which decoherence is induced by continuous monitoring of each graph vertex with nearby quantum point…
Given a graph $\mathcal{G}$, the spanning centrality (SC) of an edge $e$ measures the importance of $e$ for $\mathcal{G}$ to be connected. In practice, SC has seen extensive applications in computational biology, electrical networks, and…
A centipede made of $N$ quantum walkers on a one-dimensional lattice is considered. The distance between two consecutive legs is either one or two lattice spacings, and a global constraint is imposed: the maximal distance between the first…
Quantum walks exhibit properties without classical analogues. One of those is the phenomenon of asymptotic trapping -- there can be non-zero probability of the quantum walker being localised in a finite part of the underlying graph…
We propose random walks on suitably defined graphs as a framework for finescale modeling of particle motion in an obstructed environment where the particle may have interactions with the obstructions and the mean path length of the particle…
We prove essentially tight lower bounds, conditionally to the Exponential Time Hypothesis, for two fundamental but seemingly very different cutting problems on surface-embedded graphs: the Shortest Cut Graph problem and the Multiway Cut…
The staggered quantum walk (SQW) model is defined by partitioning the graph into cliques, which are called polygons. We analyze the role that the size of the polygon intersection plays on the dynamics of SQWs on graphs. We introduce two…
The quantum walk dynamics obey the laws of quantum mechanics with an extra locality constraint, which demands that the evolution operator is local in the sense that the walker must visit the neighboring locations before endeavoring to…
Suppose that pebbles are distributed on the vertices of a graph G. A pebbling step along an edge uv removes two pebbles from u and places one pebble on v. We introduce two new graph parameters: stack(G): the least integer t such that every…
Denote by $T_k$ the generalised triangle, a $k$-uniform hypergraph on vertex set $\{1,2,\dots,2k-1\}$ with three edges $\{1,\dots,k-1,k\}$,$\{1,\dots,k-1,k+1\}$ and $\{k,k+1,\dots,2k-1\}$. Recently, Bowtell, Kathapurkar, Morrison and…
The notion of walk entropy $S^V(G,\beta)$ for a graph $G$ at the inverse temperature $\beta$ was put forward recently by Estrada et al. (2014) \cite{6}. It was further proved by Benzi \cite{1} that a graph is walk-regular if and only if its…
We consider arbitrary graphs $G$ with $n$ vertices and minimum degree at least $\delta n$ where $\delta>0$ is constant. If the conductance of $G$ is sufficiently large then we obtain an asymptotic expression for the cover time $C_G$ of $G$…
In this paper, we establish a quenched invariance principle for the random walk on a certain class of infinite, aperiodic, oriented random planar graphs called "T-graphs" [Kenyon-Sheffield04]. These graphs appear, together with the…
We consider two combinatorial models on bunkbed graphs: maximum flow and self-avoiding walks. A bunkbed graph is defined as the Cartesian product $G\times K_2$, where $G$ is a finite graph and $K_2$ is the complete graph on two vertices,…
We treat a quantum walk model with in- and out- flows at every time step from the outside. We show that this quantum walk can find the marked vertex of the complete graph with a high probability in the stationary state. In exchange of the…
We develop a general theory for a quantum-walk search on a star graph. A star graph has N edges each of which is attached to a central vertex. A graph G is attached to one of these edges, and we would like to find out to which edge it is…
We propose a phenomenon of discrete-time quantum walks on graphs called the pulsation, which is a generalization of a phenomenon in the quantum searches. This phenomenon is discussed on a composite graph formed by two connected graphs…
We introduce a cover time problem for random walks on dynamic graphs in which the graph expands in time and the walker moves at random times. Time to cover all nodes and number of returns to original states are analyzed in resulting model.
