Much of the past work in network analysis has focused on analyzing discrete graphs, where binary edges represent the "presence" or "absence" of a relationship. Since traditional network measures (e.g., betweenness centrality) utilize a…
Temporal graphs have edge sets that change over discrete time steps. Such graphs are temporally connected (TC) if all pairs of vertices can reach each other using paths that traverse the edges in a time-respecting way (temporal paths).…
We study the Temporal Exploration problem, where an agent must visit all vertices of a temporal graph while traversing at most one available edge per time step. Unlike static graphs, which can be explored in linear time, temporal…
We investigate notions of network centrality in terms of the underlying coupling graph of the network, structure of exogenous uncertainties, and communication time-delay. Our focus is on time-delay linear consensus networks, where…
Temporal graphs are graphs where the topology and/or other properties of the graph change with time. They have been used to model applications with temporal information in various domains. Problems on static graphs become more challenging…

In modern graph analytics, the shortest path is a fundamental concept. Numerous \rrev{recent works} concentrate mostly on the distance of these shortest paths. Nevertheless, in the era of betweenness analysis, the counting of the shortest…
Spanning Centrality is a measure used in network analysis to determine the importance of an edge in a graph based on its contribution to the connectivity of the entire network. Specifically, it quantifies how critical an edge is in terms of…
In this work, we follow the current trend on temporal graph realization, where one is given a property P and the goal is to determine whether there is a temporal graph, that is, a graph where the edge set changes over time, with property P…
We study the problem of finding the cycle of minimum cost-to-time ratio in a directed graph with $ n $ nodes and $ m $ edges. This problem has a long history in combinatorial optimization and has recently seen interesting applications in…
Centrality is an important notion in network analysis and is used to measure the degree to which network structure contributes to the importance of a node in a network. While many different centrality measures exist, most of them apply to…
In this comment, we investigate a common used algorithm proposed by Newman [M. E. J. Newman, Phys. Rev. E {\bf 64}, 016132(2001)] to calculate the betweenness centrality for all vertices. The inaccurateness of Newman's algorithm is pointed…

Real world networks exhibit rich temporal information: friends are added and removed over time in online social networks; the seasons dictate the predator-prey relationship in food webs; and the propagation of a virus depends on the network…
One of the more recent measures of centrality in social network analysis is the normalized harmonic centrality. A variant of the closeness centrality, harmonic centrality sums the inverse of the geodesic distances of each node to other…
Harmonic centrality calculates the importance of a node in a network by adding the inverse of the geodesic distances of this node to all the other nodes. Harmonic centralization, on the other hand, is the graph-level centrality score based…
An algorithm observes the trajectories of random walks over an unknown graph $G$, starting from the same vertex $x$, as well as the degrees along the trajectories. For all finite connected graphs, one can estimate the number of edges $m$ up…
