Minimal rank-metric codes or, equivalently, linear cutting blocking sets are characterized in terms of the second generalized rank weight, via their connection with evasiveness properties of the associated $q$-system. Using this result, we…

The smallest set of vertices needed to differentiate or categorize every other vertex in a graph is referred to as the graph's metric dimension. Finding the class of graphs for a particular given metric dimension is an NP-hard problem. This…

In a graph $\Gamma$, a perfect code is an independent set $C$ with the property that every vertex not in $C$ is adjacent to a unique vertex in $C$, and a total perfect code is a set $C$ of vertices of $\Gamma$ such that every vertex of…

We investigate the sparsity of null vectors of real symmetric matrices whose off-diagonal pattern of zero and nonzero entries is described by the adjacencies of a graph. We use the definition of the spark of a matrix, the smallest number of…

Let R be a commutative ring with identity, and let I be an ideal of R. The zero-divisor graph of R with respect to I, denoted by $\Gamma_I(R)$, is the graph whose vertices are the set $\{x \in R \setminus I | xy \in I$ for some $y \in R…

Associating to each pre-order on the indices 1,...,n the corresponding structural matrix ring, or incidence algebra, embeds the lattice of n-element pre-orders into the lattice of n x n matrix rings. Rings within the order-convex hull of…

Traditional graph centrality measures effectively quantify node importance but fail to capture the structural uniqueness of multi-scale connectivity patterns -- critical for understanding network resilience and function. This paper…

An $r$-identifying code on a graph $G$ is a set $C\subset V(G)$ such that for every vertex in $V(G)$, the intersection of the radius-$r$ closed neighborhood with $C$ is nonempty and unique. On a finite graph, the density of a code is…

A set $C$ of vertices of a simple graph is called a completely regular code if for each $i=0$, $1$, $2$, \ldots and $j = i-1$, $i$, $i+1$, all vertices at distance $i$ from $C$ have the same number $s_{ij}$ of neighbors at distance $j$ from…
