In this paper, we study the graphical mean curvature flow in a warped product $_r G/K \times I$, where $G/K$ is a symmetric space of compact type, $I$ is an open interval, and $r$ is a smooth positive function on $I$. If the initial…
We give a classification of all connected quartic graphs which are (infinity) curvature sharp in all vertices with respect to Bakry-\'Emery curvature. The result is based on a computer classification by F. Gurr and L. Watson May and a…
Let $X$ be a connected Cayley graph on an abelian group of odd order, such that no two distinct vertices of $X$ have exactly the same neighbours. We show that the direct product $X \times K_2$ (also called the "canonical double cover" of…
The distinguishing number (index) $D(G)$ ($D'(G)$) of a graph $G$ is the least integer $d$ such that $G$ has an vertex labeling (edge labeling) with $d$ labels that is preserved only by a trivial automorphism. The strong product $G\boxtimes…
The modular product $G\diamond H$ of graphs $G$ and $H$ is a graph on vertex set $V(G)\times V(H)$. Two vertices $(g,h)$ and $(g',h')$ of $G\diamond H$ are adjacent if $g=g'$ and $hh'\in E(H)$, or $gg'\in E(G)$ and $h=h'$, or $gg'\in E(G)$…
In this second part of a sequence of two papers, we discuss the implementation of a curvature flow on weighted graphs based on the Bakry-\'Emery calculus. This flow can be adapted to preserve the Markovian property and its limits as time…
We characterize strongly edge regular product graphs and find the edge-balanced index sets of complete bipartite graphs without a perfect matching, the direct product $K_n\times K_2$. We also prove a lemma that is helpful to determine the…
Graph product is a fundamental tool with rich applications in both graph theory and theoretical computer science. It is usually studied in the form $f(G*H)$ where $G$ and $H$ are graphs, * is a graph product and $f$ is a graph property. For…
Let $\kappa'(G)$ be the edge connectivity of $G$ and $G\times H$ the direct product of $G$ and $H$. Let $H$ be an arbitrary dense graph with minimal degree $\delta(H)>|H|/2$. We prove that for any graph $G$, $\kappa'(G\times…
A $k$-matching $M$ of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a subset $M\subseteq E$ such that each connected component in the subgraph $F = (V,M)$ of $G$ is either a single-vertex graph or $k$-regular, i.e., each vertex has degree $k$. In this contribution,…
Several variants of hypergraph products have been introduced as generalizations of the strong and direct products of graphs. Here we show that only some of them are associative. In addition to the Cartesian product, these are the minimal…
An automorphism of a graph describes its structural symmetry and the concept of fixing number of a graph is used for breaking its symmetries (except the trivial one). In this paper, we evaluate automorphisms of the co-normal product graph…
The CD inequalities and CDE inequalities are useful in the estimate of curvature on graphs. This article is based on the ufinite graph with large girth, and finally concludes some curvature estimate in CD and CDE.
We introduce and study, for a process P delivering edges on the Cartesian product of the vertex sets of a given set of graphs, the P-product of these graphs, thereby generalizing many types of product graph. Analogous to the notion of a…
We prove that the rapid decay property (RD) of groups is preserved by graph products defined on finite simplicial graphs.
An automorphism of a graph product of groups is conjugating if it sends each factor to a conjugate of a factor (possibly different). In this article, we determine precisely when the group of conjugating automorphisms of a graph product…
Assume that $G$ is a finite group. For every $a, b \in\mathbb N,$ we define a graph $\Gamma_{a,b}(G)$ whose vertices correspond to the elements of $G^a\cup G^b$ and in which two tuples $(x_1,\dots,x_a)$ and $(y_1,\dots,y_b)$ are adjacent if…
We introduce a novel definition of curvature for hypergraphs, a natural generalization of graphs, by introducing a multi-marginal optimal transport problem for a naturally defined random walk on the hypergraph. This curvature, termed…
Let $G$ be a finite group. The solubility graph associated with the finite group $G$, denoted by $\Gamma_{\cal S}(G)$, is a simple graph whose vertices are the non-trivial elements of $G$, and there is an edge between two distinct elements…
We obtain a complete classification of graph products of finite abelian groups whose Cayley graphs with respect to the standard presentations are planar.
