Graph clustering aims to partition nodes into distinct clusters based on their similarity, thereby revealing relationships among nodes. Nevertheless, most existing methods do not fully utilize these edge weights. Leveraging edge weights in…

We show that certain digraphs with the same vertex set but different arc sets have the same sum over the weights of all arborescences with a given root vertex. We relate our results to the Matrix-Tree Theorem and show how they provide a…

As in algebraic geometry, an effective divisor class on a vertex-weighted graph is called special if also its residual class is effective. We study the question, when this is true already on the level of divisors; that is, when there exists…

Consider a set of $n$ vertices, where each vertex has a location in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that is sampled uniformly from the unit cube in $\mathbb{R}^d$, and a weight associated to it. Construct a random graph by placing edges independently for…

We study a continuous facility location problem on a graph where all edges have unit length and where the facilities may also be positioned in the interior of the edges. The goal is to position as many facilities as possible subject to the…

Finding maximum-weight independent sets in graphs is an important NP-hard optimization problem. Given a vertex-weighted graph $G$, the task is to find a subset of pairwise non-adjacent vertices of $G$ with maximum weight. Most recently…

The articulation points of an undirected connected graphs are those vertices whose removal increases the number of connected components of the graph, i.e. the vertices whose removal disconnects the graph. However, not all the articulation…

A graph labeling assigns values to the components of a graph (vertices, edges, etc.). In particular, distance magic labelings have been widely studied in undirected graphs. In such a labeling, the vertices are labeled with unique values…

We develop a framework for incorporating edge-dependent vertex weights (EDVWs) into the hypergraph minimum s-t cut problem. These weights are able to reflect different importance of vertices within a hyperedge, thus leading to better…

In this paper, we study the impact of edge weights on distances in diluted random graphs. We interpret these weights as delays, and take them as i.i.d exponential random variables. We analyze the weighted flooding time defined as the…

The splitting-off operation in undirected graphs is a fundamental reduction operation that detaches all edges incident to a given vertex and adds new edges between the neighbors of that vertex while preserving their degrees. Lov\'asz (1974)…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite, connected graph. We consider a greedy selection of vertices: given a list of vertices $x_1, \dots, x_k$, take $x_{k+1}$ to be any vertex maximizing the sum of distances to the existing vertices and iterate: we…
