We aim to find orientations of mixed graphs optimizing the total reachability, a problem that has applications in causality and biology. For given a digraph $D$, we use $P(D)$ for the set of ordered pairs of distinct vertices in $V(D)$ and…

The diameter of a graph is one if its most important parameters, being used in many real-word applications. In particular, the diameter dictates how fast information can spread throughout data and communication networks. Thus, it is a…

An oriented graph is a directed graph which can be obtained from a simple undirected graph by orienting its edges. In this paper we show that any oriented graph G on n vertices with minimum indegree and outdegree at least (1/2-o(1))n…

An oriented 3-graph consists of a family of triples (3-sets), each of which is given one of its two possible cyclic orientations. A cycle in an oriented 3-graph is a positive sum of some of the triples that gives weight zero to each 2-set.…

The diameter of a graph is the maximum distance among all pairs of vertices. Thus a graph $G$ has diameter $d$ if any two vertices are at distance at most $d$ and there are two vertices at distance $d$. We are interested in studying the…

We study the problem of computing the diameter and the mean distance of a continuous graph, i.e., a connected graph where all points along the edges, instead of only the vertices, must be taken into account. It is known that for continuous…

The radius and diameter are fundamental graph parameters. They are defined as the minimum and maximum of the eccentricities in a graph, respectively, where the eccentricity of a vertex is the largest distance from the vertex to another…

Assignment of one of the two possible directions to every edge of an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ is called an orientation of $G$. The resulting directed graph is denoted by $\overrightarrow{G}$. A strong orientation is one in which every…

We consider upward-planar layered drawings of directed graphs, i.e., crossing-free drawings in which each edge is drawn as a y-monotone curve going upward from its tail to its head, and the y-coordinates of the vertices are integers. The…

An octilinear drawing of a planar graph is one in which each edge is drawn as a sequence of horizontal, vertical and diagonal at 45 degrees line-segments. For such drawings to be readable, special care is needed in order to keep the number…

A vertex $w$ resolves two vertices $u$ and $v$ in a directed graph $G$ if the distance from $w$ to $u$ is different to the distance from $w$ to $v$. A set of vertices $R$ is a resolving set for a directed graph $G$ if for every pair of…
