We study the complexity of several combinatorial problems in the model of binary networked public goods games. In this game, players are represented by vertices in a network, and the action of each player can be either investing or not…

In this paper, we consider the parameterized quantum query complexity for graph problems. We design parameterized quantum query algorithms for $k$-vertex cover and $k$-matching problems, and present lower bounds on the parameterized quantum…

We consider two-player games played on finite graphs equipped with costs on edges and introduce two winning conditions, cost-parity and cost-Streett, which require bounds on the cost between requests and their responses. Both conditions…

Edge expansion is a parameter indicating how well-connected a graph is. It is useful for designing robust networks, analysing random walks or information flow through a network and is an important notion in theoretical computer science.…

We present here random distributions on $(D+1)$-edge-colored, bipartite graphs with a fixed number of vertices $2p$. These graphs are dual to $D$-dimensional orientable colored complexes. We investigate the behavior of quantities related to…

In this paper, we analyze the exact asymptotic behavior of the connectivity probability in a random binomial bipartite graph $G(n,m,p)$ under various regimes of the edge probability $p=p(n)$. To determine this probability, a method based on…

We consider the following problem: for a given graph $G$ and two integers $k$ and $d$, can we apply a fixed graph operation at most $k$ times in order to reduce a given graph parameter $\pi$ by at least $d$? We show that this problem is…

We introduce Graph Neural Processes (GNP), inspired by the recent work in conditional and latent neural processes. A Graph Neural Process is defined as a Conditional Neural Process that operates on arbitrary graph data. It takes features of…

We analyse graphs in which each vertex is assigned random coordinates in a geometric space of arbitrary dimensionality and only edges between adjacent points are present. The critical connectivity is found numerically by examining the size…

We study two games proposed by Erd\H{o}s, and one game by Bensmail and Mc Inerney, all sharing a common setup: two players alternately colour edges of a complete graph, or in the biased version, they colour $p$ and $q$ edges respectively on…

The undirected edge geography is a two-player combinatorial game on an undirected rooted graph. The players alternatively perform a move consisting of choosing an edge incident to the root vertex, removing the chosen edge, and marking the…
