Graph-based neural network models are producing strong results in a number of domains, in part because graphs provide flexibility to encode domain knowledge in the form of relational structure (edges) between nodes in the graph. In…

Engelfriet and Vereijken have shown that linear graph grammars based on hyperedge replacement generate graph languages that can be considered as interpretations of regular string languages over typed symbols. In this paper we show that…

We define a general model of stochastically-evolving graphs, namely the \emph{Edge-Uniform Stochastically-Evolving Graphs}. In this model, each possible edge of an underlying general static graph evolves independently being either alive or…

We study homomorphism problems of signed graphs. A signed graph is an undirected graph where each edge is given a sign, positive or negative. An important concept for signed graphs is the operation of switching at a vertex, which is to…

Graph limit models, like graphons for limits of dense graphs, have recently been used to study size transferability of graph neural networks (GNNs). While most literature focuses on message passing GNNs (MPNNs), in this work we attend to…

A graph $G(V,E)$ is $\Gamma$-harmonious when there is an injection $f$ from $V$ to an Abelian group $\Gamma$ such that the induced edge labels defined as $w(xy)=f(x)+f(y)$ form a bijection from $E$ to $\Gamma$. We study $\Gamma$-harmonious…

We prove that the set of subgroups of the automorphism group of a two-sided full shift is closed under countable graph products. We introduce the notion of a group action without $A$-cancellation (for an abelian group $A$), and show that…

For a given group $G$ the orientably regular maps with orientation-preserving automorphism group $G$ are used as the vertices of a graph $\O(G)$, with undirected and directed edges showing the effect of duality and hole operations on these…

A digraph is connected-homogeneous if any isomorphism between finite connected induced subdigraphs extends to an automorphism of the digraph. We consider locally-finite connected-homogeneous digraphs with more than one end. In the case that…

For a group $\Gamma$, a $\Gamma$-labelled graph is an undirected graph $G$ where every orientation of an edge is assigned an element of $\Gamma$ so that opposite orientations of the same edge are assigned inverse elements. A path in $G$ is…

The study of homomorphisms of $(n,m)$-graphs, that is, adjacency preserving vertex mappings of graphs with $n$ types of arcs and $m$ types of edges was initiated by Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il and Raspaud in 2000. Later, some attempts were made to…

It is known that, if removing some $n$ edges from a graph $\Gamma$ destroys all subgraphs isomorphic to a given finite graph $K$, then all subgraphs isomorphic to $K$ can be destroyed by removing at most $|E(K)|\cdot n$ edges, which form a…

Let $G$ be a quasi-transitive, locally finite, connected graph rooted at a vertex $o$, and let $c_n(o)$ be the number of self-avoiding walks of length $n$ on $G$ starting at $o$. We show that if $G$ has only thin ends, then the generating…

Graph Transformers (GTs) have demonstrated significant advantages in graph representation learning through their global attention mechanisms. However, the self-attention mechanism in GTs tends to neglect the inductive biases inherent in…

Consider a family $\mathcal F$ of $C_{2r+1}$-free graphs, where $r\geq 2$. Suppose that each graph in $\mathcal F$ has minimum degree linear in its number of vertices. Thomassen showed that such a family has bounded chromatic number, or,…

We consider the $\#\mathsf{W}[1]$-hard problem of counting all matchings with exactly $k$ edges in a given input graph $G$; we prove that it remains $\#\mathsf{W}[1]$-hard on graphs $G$ that are line graphs or bipartite graphs with degree…
