In streamed graph drawing, a planar graph, G, is given incrementally as a data stream and a straight-line drawing of G must be updated after each new edge is released. To preserve the mental map, changes to the drawing should be minimized…

In network flow problems, there is a well-known one-to-one relationship between extreme points of the feasibility region and trees in the associated undirected graph. The same is true for the dual differential problem. In this paper, we…

We consider the problem of multicommodity flows in planar graphs. Okamura and Seymour showed that if all the demands are incident on one face, then the cut-condition is sufficient for routing demands. We consider the following…

The network reconfiguration problem seeks to find a rooted tree $T$ such that the energy of the (unique) feasible electrical flow over $T$ is minimized. The tree requirement on the support of the flow is motivated by operational constraints…

We consider smooth flows preserving a smooth invariant measure, or, equivalently, locally Hamiltonian flows on compact orientable surfaces and show that almost every such locally Hamiltonian flow with only simple saddles has singular…

We introduce temporal flows on temporal networks, i.e., networks the links of which exist only at certain moments of time. Such networks are ephemeral in the sense that no link exists after some time. Our flow model is new and differs from…

In this paper, we consider a network communications problem in which multiple correlated sources must be delivered to a single data collector node, over a network of noisy independent point-to-point channels. We prove that perfect…

A two-terminal graph is a graph equipped with two distinguished vertices, called terminals. Let $T_{n,m}$ be the set of all nonisomorphic connected simple two-terminal graphs on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. Let $G$ be any two-terminal graph…

Given a bidirected ring with capacities and a demand graph, we present an approximation algorithm to the problem of finding the minimum $\alpha$ such that there exists a feasible unsplittable routing of the demands after multiplying each…

We study time-changes of unipotent flows on finite volume quotients of semisimple linear groups, generalising previous work by Ratner on time-changes of horocycle flows. Any measurable isomorphism between time-changes of unipotent flows…

There has been intensive work on the parameterized complexity of the typically NP-hard task to edit undirected graphs into graphs fulfilling certain given vertex degree constraints. In this work, we lift the investigations to the case of…

Flow matching has emerged as a powerful framework for generative modeling through continuous normalizing flows. We investigate a potential topological constraint: when the prior distribution and target distribution have mismatched topology…

We identify incompressible planar linear flows that are generalizations of the well known one-parameter family characterized by the ratio of in-plane extension to (out-of-plane) vorticity. The latter `canonical' family is classified into…

We investigate flows on graphs whose links have random capacities. For binary trees we derive the probability distribution for the maximal flow from the root to a leaf, and show that for infinite trees it vanishes beyond a certain threshold…

Foundational models of computation often abstract away physical hardware limitations. However, in extreme environments like In-Network Computing (INC), these limitations become inviolable laws, creating an acute trilemma among communication…
