Minimum resolution set and associated metric dimension provide the basis for unique and systematic labeling of nodes of a graph using distances to a set of landmarks. Such a distance vector set, however, may not be unique to the graph and…
A linking system of difference sets is a collection of mutually related group difference sets, whose advantageous properties have been used to extend classical constructions of systems of linked symmetric designs. The central problems are…
A numerical set $S$ is a cofinite subset of $\mathbb{N}$ which contains $0$. We use the natural bijection between numerical sets and Young diagrams to define a numerical set $\widetilde{S}$, such that their Young diagrams are complements.…
Many real objects are modeled as discrete sets of points, such as corners or other salient features. For our main applications in chemistry, points represent atomic centers in a molecule or a solid material. We study the problem of…
In online unit clustering, points of a metric space arriving one by one must be partitioned into clusters of diameter at most 1, where the cost is the number of clusters. This paper gives linear upper and lower bounds on the advice…
Considering a communication topology of a wireless network modeled by a graph where an edge exists between two nodes if they are within each other's communication range. A subset $U$ of nodes is a dominating set if each node is either in…
A point set $M$ in $m$-dimensional Euclidean space is called an integral point set if all the distances between the elements of $M$ are integers, and $M$ is not situated on an $(m-1)$-dimensional hyperplane. We improve the linear lower…
New sets (typically found by computer search) with Sidon constant equal to the square root of their cardinalities are given. For each integer $N$ there are only a finite number of groups of prime order containing $N$-element extreme sets.…
Quantification is well known to be a major obstacle in the construction of a probabilistic network, especially when relying on human experts for this purpose. The construction of a qualitative probabilistic network has been proposed as an…
Dimension is a fundamental property of objects and the space in which they are embedded. Yet ideal notions of dimension, as in Euclidean spaces, do not always translate to physical spaces, which can be constrained by boundaries and…
A bridge in a graph is an edge whose removal disconnects the graph and increases the number of connected components. We calculate the fraction of bridges in a wide range of real-world networks and their randomized counterparts. We find that…
The online dominating set problem is an online variant of the minimum dominating set problem, which is one of the most important NP-hard problems on graphs. This problem is defined as follows: Given an undirected graph $G = (V, E)$, in…
We consider network design problems in which we are given a graph and seek a min-size $2$-connected subgraph that satisfies a prescribed property. $\bullet$ In the 1-Connectivity Augmentation problem the goal is to augment a connected graph…
Given a virtual link diagram $D$, we define its unknotting index $U(D)$ to be minimum among $(m, n)$ tuples, where $m$ stands for the number of crossings virtualized and $n$ stands for the number of classical crossing changes, to obtain a…
Given a metric space $\mathcal{M}=(X,\delta)$, a weighted graph $G$ over $X$ is a metric $t$-spanner of $\mathcal{M}$ if for every $u,v \in X$, $\delta(u,v)\le d_G(u,v)\le t\cdot \delta(u,v)$, where $d_G$ is the shortest path metric in $G$.…
In a digraph, a quasi-kernel is a subset of vertices that is independent and such that the shortest path from every vertex to this subset is of length at most two. The ``small quasi-kernel conjecture,'' proposed by Erd\H{o}s and Sz\'ekely…
Confidence nets, that is, collections of confidence intervals that fill out the parameter space and whose exact parameter coverage can be computed, are familiar in nonparametric statistics. Here, the distributional assumptions are based on…
This paper aims to provide a comprehensive critical overview on how entities and their interactions in Complex Networked Systems (CNS) are modelled across disciplines as they approach their ultimate goal of creating a Digital Twin (DT) that…
The approximation of natural numbers subsets has always been one of the fundamental issues in computability theory. Computable approximation, $\Delta_2$-approximation, as well as introducing the generically computable sets have been some…
A Sidon set is a set A of integers such that no integer has two essentially distinct representations as the sum of two elements of A. More generally, for every positive integer g, a B_2[g]-set is a set A of integers such that no integer has…
