In this paper, we interpret Deep Neural Networks with Complex Network Theory. Complex Network Theory (CNT) represents Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) as directed weighted graphs to study them as dynamical systems. We efficiently adapt CNT…

An $\textit{identifying code}$ of a closed-twin-free graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that any two vertices in $G$ have a distinct intersection between their closed neighborhood and $S$. It was conjectured that there exists a…

For a tournament $H$ with $h$ vertices, its typical density is $h!2^{-\binom{h}{2}}/aut(H)$, i.e. this is the expected density of $H$ in a random tournament. A family ${\mathcal F}$ of $h$-vertex tournaments is {\em dominant} if for all…

We consider the class of (C4, diamond)-free graphs; graphs in this class do not contain a C4 or a diamond as an induced subgraph. We provide an efficient recognition algorithm for this class. We count the number of maximal cliques in a (C4,…

This article focuses on properties and structures of trees with maximum mean subtree order in a given family; such trees are called optimal in the family. Our main goal is to describe the structure of optimal trees in $\mathcal{T}_n$ and…

We investigate the new, Turing-complete class of layered systems, whose lefthand sides of rules can only be overlapped at a multiset of disjoint or equal positions. Layered systems define a natural notion of rank for terms: the maximal…

A celebrated unresolved conjecture of Erd\"{o}s and Hajnal states that for every undirected graph $H$ there exists $ \epsilon(H) > 0 $ such that every undirected graph on $ n $ vertices that does not contain $H$ as an induced subgraph…
