We consider the following question. We have a dense regular graph $G$ with degree $\alpha n$, where $\alpha>0$ is a constant. We add $m=o(n^2)$ random edges. The edges of the augmented graph $G(m)$ are given independent edge weights $X(e)$,…

A vertex $v$ is called an AR-vertex, if $v$ has distinct edge weight sums for each distinct subset of edges incident on $v$. i.e., if $\{x_1,x_2,\dots,x_k\}$ are the edge labels of the edges incident on $v$, then the $2^k$ subset sums are…

Given a graph $G$, a vertex switch of $v \in V(G)$ results in a new graph where neighbors of $v$ become nonneighbors and vice versa. This operation gives rise to an equivalence relation over the set of labeled digraphs on $n$ vertices. The…
