In this paper, we consider a relation between $k$-way expansion constant of a finite graph and the expansion constants of subgraphs in a $k$-partition of the graph. Using this relation, we show that a sequence of finite graphs which have…
Let $G$ be a drawing of a graph with $n$ vertices and $e>4n$ edges, in which no two adjacent edges cross and any pair of independent edges cross at most once. According to the celebrated Crossing Lemma of Ajtai, Chv\'atal, Newborn,…
Spectral decomposition of the covariance operator is one of the main building blocks in the theory and applications of Gaussian processes. Unfortunately it is notoriously hard to derive in a closed form. In this paper we consider the…
Traditional clustering algorithms often struggle to capture the complex relationships within graphs and generalise to arbitrary clustering criteria. The emergence of graph neural networks (GNNs) as a powerful framework for learning…
Independent sets play a key role into the study of graphs and important problems arising in graph theory reduce to them. We define the monomial ideal of independent sets associated to a finite simple graph and describe its homological and…
This work presents formulas for the Kauffman bracket and Jones polynomials of 3-bridge knots using the structure of Chebyshev knots and their billiard table diagrams. In particular, these give far fewer terms than in the Skein relation…
Szemer\'edi's Regularity Lemma is an important tool for analyzing the structure of dense graphs. There are versions of the Regularity Lemma for sparse graphs, but these only apply when the graph satisfies some local density condition. In…
We consider quantum graphs with transparent branching points. To design such networks, the concept of transparent boundary conditions is applied to the derivation of the vertex boundary conditions for the linear Schrodinger equation on…
Frei et al. [6] showed that the problem to decide whether a graph is stable with respect to some graph parameter under adding or removing either edges or vertices is $\Theta_2^{\text{P}}$-complete. They studied the common graph parameters…
We consider the problem of signal recovery on graphs as graphs model data with complex structure as signals on a graph. Graph signal recovery implies recovery of one or multiple smooth graph signals from noisy, corrupted, or incomplete…
Substituting each edge of a simple connected graph $G$ by a path of length 1 and $k$ paths of length 5 generates the $k$-hexagonal graph $H^k(G)$. Iterative graph $H^k_n(G)$ is produced when the preceding constructions are repeated $n$…
We derive a formula for the QE constant of a complete multipartite graph and determine the complete multipartite graphs of non-QE class, namely, those which do not admit quadratic embeddings in a Euclidean space. Moreover, the primary…
In contrast to the usual quantum systems which have at most a finite number of open spectral gaps if they are periodic in more than one direction, periodic quantum graphs may have gaps arbitrarily high in the spectrum. This property of…
We give an elementary, self-contained, and purely combinatorial proof of the Rayleigh monotonicity property of graphs.
A sign is introduced in the usual Laplacian on graphs and the corresponding analogue of the isoperimetric constant for this Laplacian is presented, i.e. a geometric quantity which enables to bound from above and below the first eigenvalue.…
This paper presents a simple and efficient approach for finding the bridges and failure points in a densely connected network mapped as a graph. The algorithm presented here is a parallel algorithm which works in a distributed environment.…
We study the mean curvature flow of graphs both with Neumann boundary conditions and transport terms. We derive boundary gradient estimates for the mean curvature flow. As an application, the existence of the mean curvature flow of graphs…
The complexity of a graph can be obtained as a derivative of a variation of the zeta function or a partial derivative of its generalized characteristic polynomial evaluated at a point [\textit{J. Combin. Theory Ser. B}, 74 (1998), pp.…
We propose to study maximum flow problems for connectome graphs. We suggest a few computational problems: finding vertex pairs with maximal flow, finding new edges which would increase the maximal flow. Initial computation results for some…
We show a generalization of the crossing lemma for multi-graphs drawn on orientable surfaces in which pairs of edges are assumed to be drawn by non-homotopic simple arcs which pairwise cross at most $k$ times.
