Polygraphs are a higher-dimensional generalization of the notion of directed graph. Based on those as unifying concept, this monograph on polygraphs revisits the theory of rewriting in the context of strict higher categories, adopting the…

The metric dimension of a graph is the minimum size of a set of vertices such that each vertex is uniquely determined by the distances to the vertices of that set. Our aim is to upper-bound the order $n$ of a graph in terms of its diameter…

Graphs and various graph-like combinatorial structures, such as preorders and hypergraphs, are ubiquitous in programming. This paper focuses on representing graphs in a purely functional programming language like Haskell. There are several…

Knowledge graphs play a central role for linking different data which leads to multiple layers. Thus, they are widely used in big data integration, especially for connecting data from different domains. Few studies have investigated the…

Motivated by applications of algebraic geometry, we introduce the Galois width, a quantity characterizing the complexity of solving algebraic equations in a restricted model of computation allowing only field arithmetic and adjoining…

In this paper we offer a metric similar to graph edit distance which measures the distance between two (possibly infinite)weighted graphs with finite norm (we define the norm of a graph as the sum of absolute values of its edges). The main…

Given a category with a bifunctor and natural isomorphisms for associativity, commutativity and left and right identity we do not assume that extra constraining diagrams hold. We introduce groupoids of coupling trees to describe a version…

Graph-level representations are crucial tools for characterising structural differences between graphs. However, comparing graphs with different cardinalities, even when sampled from the same underlying distribution, remains challenging.…

We define the affinization of an arbitrary monoidal category $\mathcal{C}$, corresponding to the category of $\mathcal{C}$-diagrams on the cylinder. We also give an alternative characterization in terms of adjoining dot generators to…

We study two notions of being well-structured for classes of graphs that are inspired by classic model theory. A class of graphs $C$ is monadically stable if it is impossible to define arbitrarily long linear orders in vertex-colored graphs…

Equality saturation, a technique for program optimisation and reasoning, has gained attention due to the resurgence of equality graphs (e-graphs). E-graphs represent equivalence classes of terms under rewrite rules, enabling simultaneous…

We consider the problem of finding a 1-planar drawing for a general graph, where a 1-planar drawing is a drawing in which each edge participates in at most one crossing. Since this problem is known to be NP-hard we investigate the…
