Network reliability measures the probability that a target node is reachable from a source node in an uncertain graph, i.e., a graph where every edge is associated with a probability of existence. In this paper, we investigate the novel and…
The classic all-terminal network reliability problem posits a graph, each of whose edges fails independently with some given probability.
In this paper, we study the robustness of network topologies. We use the concept of percolation as measuring tool to assess the reliability polynomial of those systems which can be modeled as a general inhomogeneous random graph as well as…
The all-terminal reliability of a graph $G$ is the probability that $G$ remains connected when each edge fails independently with probability $p$. For fixed $n$ and $m$, the uniformly most reliable problem asks which graph with $n$ vertices…
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…
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…
This paper discusses the reliability of a graph in which the links are perfectly reliable but the nodes may fail with certain probability p. Calculating graph node reliability is an NP-Hard problem. We introduce an efficient and accurate…
A graph is \emph{hamiltonian-connected} if every pair of vertices can be connected by a hamiltonian path, and it is \emph{hamiltonian} if it contains a hamiltonian cycle. We construct families of non-hamiltonian graphs for which the ratio…
This paper re-introduces the network reliability polynomial - introduced by Moore and Shannon in 1956 -- for studying the effect of network structure on the spread of diseases. We exhibit a representation of the polynomial that is…
Assume that the vertices of a graph $G$ are always operational, but the edges of $G$ are operational independently with probability $p \in[0,1]$. For fixed vertices $s$ and $t$, the \emph{two-terminal reliability} of $G$ is the probability…
The independence polynomial of a graph is the generating polynomial for the number of independent sets of each size, and its roots are called {\em independence roots}. We investigate the stability of such polynomials, that is, conditions…
In this paper we show that for each $n$, there exists a simple graph whose reliability polynomial has at least $n$ inflection points.
The \textit{node reliability} of a graph $G$ is the probability that at least one node is operational and that the operational nodes can all communicate in the subgraph that they induce, given that the edges are perfectly reliable but each…

The present study was concerned with network failure problems for simple connected undirected graphs. A connected graph becomes unconnected through edge failure, under the assumptions that only edges can fail and each edge has an identical…
A Hamiltonian path (a Hamiltonian cycle) in a graph is a path (a cycle, respectively) that traverses all of its vertices. The problems of deciding their existence in an input graph are well-known to be NP-complete, in fact, they belong to…
Firstly, for a general graph, we find a recursion formula on the number of Hamiltonian cycles and one on cycles. By this result, we give some new polynomial invariants. Secondly, we give a condition to tell whether a polynomial defined by…
