K\'{a}rolyi, Pach, and T\'{o}th proved that every 2-edge-colored straight-line drawing of the complete graph contains a monochromatic plane spanning tree. It is open if this statement generalizes to other classes of drawings, specifically,…
The main objects under consideration in this thesis are called maps, a certain class of graphs embedded on surfaces. Our problems have a powerful relatively recent tool in common, the so-called topological recursion (TR) introduced by…
We discuss a recursive formula for number of spanning trees in a graph. The paper is written primary for school students.
A spanning tree of an unweighted graph is a minimum average stretch spanning tree if it minimizes the ratio of sum of the distances in the tree between the end vertices of the graph edges and the number of graph edges. We consider the…
We consider the number of spanning trees in circulant graphs of $\beta n$ vertices with generators depending linearly on $n$. The matrix tree theorem gives a closed formula of $\beta n$ factors, while we derive a formula of $\beta-1$…
We introduce the concept of Most, and Least, Compact Spanning Trees - denoted respectively by $T^*(G)$ and $T^\#(G)$ - of a simple, connected, undirected and unweighted graph $G(V, E, W)$. For a spanning tree $T(G) \in \mathcal{T}(G)$ to be…
Heffter arrays were introduced by Archdeacon in 2015 as an interesting link between combinatorial designs and topological graph theory. Since the initial paper on this topic, there has been a good deal of interest in Heffter arrays as well…
We present a determinantal formula for the number of spanning trees of a complete multipartite graph containing a given spanning forest $F$. Our approach relies on the Generalized Matrix Determinant Lemma and Jacobi's formula for the…
We show that $(n,d,\lambda)$-graphs with $\lambda=O(d/\log^3 n)$ are universal with respect to all bounded degree spanning trees. This significantly improves upon the previous best bound due to Han and Yang of the form…
Graphs drawn in the plane are ubiquitous, arising from data sets through a variety of methods ranging from GIS analysis to image classification to shape analysis. A fundamental problem in this type of data is comparison: given a set of such…
Vector autoregression has been widely used for modeling and analysis of multivariate time series data. In high-dimensional settings, model parameter regularization schemes inducing sparsity yield interpretable models and achieved good…
In this paper, we are concerned with mean hitting time $\langle\mathcal{H}\rangle$ for random walks on recursive growth tree networks that are built based on an arbitrary tree as the seed via implementing various primitive graphic…
Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, a tree cover is a collection of trees $\mathcal{T}=\{T_1,T_2,...,T_q\}$, such that for every pair of vertices $u,v\in V$ there is a tree $T\in\mathcal{T}$ that contains a $u-v$ path with a small stretch. If the…
Given a finite planar graph, a grove is a spanning forest in which every component tree contains one or more of a specified set of vertices (called nodes) on the outer face. For the uniform measure on groves, we compute the probabilities of…
Designing well-connected graphs is a fundamental problem that frequently arises in various contexts across science and engineering. The weighted number of spanning trees, as a connectivity measure, emerges in numerous problems and plays a…
We investigate the complexity of finding a transformation from a given spanning tree in a graph to another given spanning tree in the same graph via a sequence of edge flips. The exchange property of the matroid bases immediately yields…
We consider changes in properties of a subgraph of an infinite graph resulting from the addition of open edges of Bernoulli percolation on the infinite graph to the subgraph. We give the triplet of an infinite graph, one of its subgraphs,…
We address here spanning tree problems on a graph with binary edge weights. For a general weighted graph the minimum spanning tree is solved in super-linear running time, even when the edges of the graph are pre-sorted. A related problem,…
For a simple drawing $D$ of the complete graph $K_n$, two (plane) subdrawings are compatible if their union is plane. Let $\mathcal{T}_D$ be the set of all plane spanning trees on $D$ and $\mathcal{F}(\mathcal{T}_D)$ be the compatibility…
