Any rational number can be factored into a product of several rationals whose sum vanishes. This simple but nontrivial fact was suggested as a problem on a maths olympiad for high-school students. We completely solve similar questions in…

A split graph is a graph whose vertices can be partitioned into a clique and a stable set. We investigate the combinatorial species of split graphs, providing species-theoretic generalizations of enumerative results due to B\'ina and…

We give an asymptotic expression for the expected number of spanning trees in a random graph with a given degree sequence $\boldsymbol{d}=(d_1,\ldots, d_n)$, provided that the number of edges is at least $n + \textstyle{\frac{1}{2}}…

The problem to express a natural number N as a product of natural numbers without regard to order corresponds to a thermally isolated non-interacting Bose gas in a one-dimensional potential with logarithmic energy eigenvalues. This…

We present a technique for approximating generic normalization constants subject to constraints. The method is then applied to derive the exact asymptotics for the conditional normalization constant of constrained exponential random graphs.

This note generalizes factorization for formulas with multiplicities and conjectures that the connection method along with this feature is computationally as powerful as resolution, also seen from a complexity point of view.

For numerical semigroups with three generators, we study the asymptotic behavior of weighted factorization lengths, that is, linear functionals of the coefficients in the factorizations of semigroup elements. This work generalizes many…

Epistemic graphs are a generalization of the epistemic approach to probabilistic argumentation. Hunter proposed a 2-way generalization framework to learn epistemic constraints from crowd-sourcing data. However, the learnt epistemic…

We study "positive" graphs that have a nonnegative homomorphism number into every edge-weighted graph (where the edgeweights may be negative). We conjecture that all positive graphs can be obtained by taking two copies of an arbitrary…

We prove that for each $k\ge0$, the probability that a root vertex in a random planar graph has degree $k$ tends to a computable constant $d_k$, so that the expected number of vertices of degree $k$ is asymptotically $d_k n$, and moreover…

Let $k$, $m$ and $r$ be three integers such that $2\leq k\leq m\leq r$. Let $G$ be a $2r$-regular, $2m$-edge-connected graph of odd order. We obtain some sufficient conditions, which guarantee $G-v$ contains a $k$-factor for all $v\in…

It is well known that if $G = (V, E)$} is a multigraph and $X\subset V$ is a subset of even order, then $G$ contains a spanning forest $H$ such that each vertex from $X$ has an odd degree in $H$ and all the other vertices have an even…

The spectrum of the normalized graph Laplacian yields a very comprehensive set of invariants of a graph. In order to understand the information contained in those invariants better, we systematically investigate the behavior of this…

Let $r \geq 2$ be a fixed integer. For infinitely many $n$, let $\boldsymbol{k} = (k_1,..., k_n)$ be a vector of nonnegative integers such that their sum $M$ is divisible by $r$. We present an asymptotic enumeration formula for simple…

We propose a new method for obtaining complete asymptotic expansions in a systematic manner, which is suitable for counting sequences of various graph families in dense regime. The core idea is to encode the two-dimensional array of…

We propose a universal approach to a range of enumeration problems in graphs. The key point is in contracting suitably chosen symmetric tensors placed at the vertices of a graph along the edges. In particular, this leads to an algorithm…

Motivated in part by an observation that the zero forcing number for the complement of a tree on $n$ vertices is either $n-3$ or $n-1$ in one exceptional case, we consider the zero forcing number for the complement of more general graphs…

It is a classical result that a random permutation of $n$ elements has, on average, about $\log n$ cycles. We generalise this fact to all directed $d$-regular graphs on $n$ vertices by showing that, on average, a random cycle-factor of such…

By a suitable shifting-the-mean parametrization at the Dirichlet series level and Delange's Tauberian theorems, we show that the number of factors in random ordered factorizations of integers is asymptotically normally distributed.

A factor of a graph is a spanning subgraph. Spectral sufficient conditions are provided via spectral radius and signless Laplacian spectral radius for graphs with (i) a matching of given size (particularly, $1$-factor) containing any given…
