We consider an edge-weighted uniform random graph with a given degree sequence (Repeated Configuration Model) which is a useful approximation for many real-world networks. It has been observed that the vertices which are separated from the…

With graphs considered as natural models for many network design problems, edge connectivity $\kappa'(G)$ and maximum number of edge-disjoint spanning trees $\tau(G)$ of a graph $G$ have been used as measures for reliability and strength in…

Given a graph with edge costs, the {\em power} of a node is themaximum cost of an edge incident to it, and the power of a graph is the sum of the powers of its nodes. Motivated by applications in wireless networks, we consider the following…

The $\ell$-component connectivity (or $\ell$-connectivity for short) of a graph $G$, denoted by $\kappa_\ell(G)$, is the minimum number of vertices whose removal from $G$ results in a disconnected graph with at least $\ell$ components or a…

An edge-cut $R$ of an edge-colored connected graph is called a rainbow-cut if no two edges in the edge-cut are colored the same. An edge-colored graph is rainbow disconnected if for any two distinct vertices $u$ and $v$ of the graph, there…

Let $G_n$ be an $n$-dimensional recursive network. The $h$-embedded connectivity $\zeta_h(G_n)$ (resp. edge-connectivity $\eta_h(G_n)$) of $G_n$ is the minimum number of vertices (resp. edges) whose removal results in disconnected and each…

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 $v \in V$…

Subgraph counting is a fundamental task that underpins several network analysis methodologies, including community detection and graph two-sample tests. Counting subgraphs is a computationally intensive problem. Substantial research has…

We call a (not necessarily properly) edge-colored graph edge-color-avoiding connected if after the removal of edges of any single color, the graph remains connected. For vertex-colored graphs, similar definitions of color-avoiding…

Motivated by hypergraph decomposition algorithms, we introduce the notion of edge-induced vertex-cuts and compare it with the well-known notions of edge-cuts and vertex-cuts. We investigate the complexity of computing minimum edge-induced…

We define the crossing graph of a given embedded graph (such as a road network) to be a graph with a vertex for each edge of the embedding, with two crossing graph vertices adjacent when the corresponding two edges of the embedding cross…

Let a network be represented by a simple graph $\mathcal{G}$ with $n$ vertices. A common approach to investigate properties of a network is to use the adjacency matrix $A=[a_{ij}]_{i,j=1}^n\in\R^{n\times n}$ associated with the graph…
