In this note we resolve three conjectures from [M. Dehmer, S. Pickl, Y. Shi, G. Yu, \emph{New inequalities for network distance measures by using graph spectra}, Discrete Appl. Math. 252 (2019), 17--27] on the comparison of distance…
We introduce new distance measures for comparing straight-line embedded graphs based on the Fr\'echet distance and the weak Fr\'echet distance. These graph distances are defined using continuous mappings and thus take the combinatorial…
The \emph{distance matrix} of a simple connected graph $G$ is $D(G)=(d_{ij})$, where $d_{ij}$ is the distance between the vertices $i$ and $j$ in $G$. We consider a weighted tree $T$ on $n$ vertices with edge weights are square matrix of…
Let $G$ be a connected graph on $n$ vertices and $D(G)$ its distance matrix. The formula for computing the determinant of this matrix in terms of the number of vertices is known when the graph is either a tree or {a} unicyclic graph. In…
Among many topological indices of trees the sum of distances $\sigma(T)$ and the number of subtrees $F(T)$ have been a long standing pair of graph invariants that are well known for their negative correlation. That is, among various given…
Graphs are versatile tools for representing structured data. As a result, a variety of machine learning methods have been studied for graph data analysis. Although many such learning methods depend on the measurement of differences between…
The scramble number of a graph is an invariant recently developed to study chip-firing games and divisorial gonality. In this paper we introduce the screewidth of a graph, based on a variation of the existing literature on tree-cut…
For every probability $p\in[0,1]$ we define a distance-based graph property, the $p$TS-distance-balancedness, that in the case $p=0$ coincides with the standard distance-balancedness, and in the case $p=1$ is related to the…
In this article, we propose tree edit distance with variables, which is an extension of the tree edit distance to handle trees with variables and has a potential application to measuring the similarity between mathematical formulas,…
Symmetry breaking for graphs and other combinatorial objects is notoriously hard. On the one hand, complete symmetry breaks are exponential in size. On the other hand, current, state-of-the-art, partial symmetry breaks are often considered…
In this note we study and compare three graph invariants related to the 'compactness' of graph drawing in the plane: the dilation coefficient, defined as the smallest possible quotient between the longest and the shortest edge length; the…
We consider two or more simple symmetric walks on some graphs, e.g. the real line, the plane or the two dimensional comb lattice, and investigate the properties of the distance among the walkers.
Twin-width is a recently formulated graph and matrix invariant that intuitively quantifies how far a graph is from having the structural simplicity of a co-graph. Since its introduction in 2020, twin-width has received increasing attention…
This work considers the problem of computing distances between structured objects such as undirected graphs, seen as probability distributions in a specific metric space. We consider a new transportation distance (i.e. that minimizes a…
Walks in a directed graph can be given a partially ordered structure that extends to possibly unconnected objects, called hikes. Studying the incidence algebra on this poset reveals unsuspected relations between walks and self-avoiding…
Topics concerning metric dimension related invariants in graphs are nowadays intensively studied. This compendium of combinatorial and computational results on this topic is an attempt of surveying those contributions that are of the…
A well-defined distance on the parameter space is key to evaluating estimators, ensuring consistency, and building confidence sets. While there are typically standard distances to adopt in a continuous space, this is not the case for…
Entanglement is a complexity measure of digraphs that origins in fixed-point logics. Its combinatorial purpose is to measure the nested depth of cycles in digraphs. We address the problem of characterizing the structure of graphs of…
For every pair of vertices u and v with d(u; v) = n, Wun G v denotes the set of all vertices of G that are closer to u than to v. In this paper, we introduce quasi-({\lambda}; n)-distance-balanced graphs and then study some properties of…
An added edge to a graph is called an inset edge. Predicting k inset edges which minimize the average distance of a graph is known to be NP-Hard. However, when k = 1 the complexity of the problem is polynomial. In this paper, some tools for…
