Graphs with bounded treewidth and bounded maximum degree are known to have tree-partitions of bounded width. What can be said if the bounded treewidth assumption is strengthened to bounded pathwidth? We prove that every graph with bounded…
A cactus is a connected graph in which any two cycles have at most one common vertex. We determine the unique graph that maximizes the distance spectral radius over all cacti with fixed numbers of vertices and cycles, and thus prove a…
We are interested in embedding trees T with maximum degree at most four in a rectangular grid, such that the vertices of T correspond to grid points, while edges of T correspond to non-intersecting straight segments of the grid lines. Such…
For a tree $T$, we show that for many positive integer values of $n$, and an integer $s \geq 2$, the higher topological complexity $TC_s$ of the unordered configuration spaces of trees $U\mathcal{C}^nT$, is maximal. In other words, we prove…
We study high moments of truncated Wigner nxn random matrices by using their representation as the sums over the set W of weighted even closed walks. We construct the subset W' of W such that the corresponding sum diverges in the limit of…
An identifying code of a closed-twin-free graph $G$ is a dominating set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that any two vertices in $G$ have a distinct intersection between their closed neighborhoods and $S$. It was conjectured that there exists…
The distributed Kaczmarz algorithm is an adaptation of the standard Kaczmarz algorithm to the situation in which data is distributed throughout a network represented by a tree. We isolate substructures of the network and study convergence…
We find in theories with spontaneous P and CP violation that symmetries needed to set the tree level strong CP phase to zero can also set all non-zero tree level CP violating phases to the maximal value \pi / 2 in the symmetry basis…
A stable set in a graph G is a set of mutually non-adjacent vertices, alpha(G) is the size of a maximum stable set of G, and core(G) is the intersection of all its maximum stable sets. In this paper we demonstrate that in a tree T, of order…
The larger the distance to instability from a matrix is, the more robustly stable the associated autonomous dynamical system is in the presence of uncertainties and typically the less severe transient behavior its solution exhibits.…
Let $P$ be a collection of $n$ points moving along pseudo-algebraic trajectories in the plane. One of the hardest open problems in combinatorial and computational geometry is to obtain a nearly quadratic upper bound, or at least a subcubic…
Given a dynamical system with constrained outputs, the maximal admissible set (MAS) is defined as the set of all initial conditions such that the output constraints are satisfied for all time. It has been previously shown that for…
Measures of tree balance play an important role in different research areas such as mathematical phylogenetics or theoretical computer science. The balance of a tree is usually quantified in a single number, called a balance or imbalance…
The paper introduces a special case of the Euclidean distance matrix completion problem (edmcp) of interest in statistical data analysis where only the minimal spanning tree distances are given and the matrix completion must preserve the…
The purpose of this paper is two-fold, first, to review a recent method introduced by S. Becker, P. Cheridito, and P. Jentzen, for solving high-dimensional optimal stopping problems using deep Neural Networks, second, to propose an…
Cellular automata are synchronous discrete dynamical systems used to describe complex dynamic behaviors. The dynamic is based on local interactions between the components, these are defined by a finite graph with an initial node coloring…
Estimating phylogenetic trees, which depict the relationships between different species, from aligned sequence data (such as DNA, RNA, or proteins) is one of the main aims of evolutionary biology. However, tree reconstruction criteria like…
We consider a sequence $\mathbf{T} = (\mathcal{T}_n : n \in \mathbb{N}^+)$ of trees $\mathcal{T}_n$ where, for some $\Delta \in \mathbb{N}^+$ every $\mathcal{T}_n$ has height at most $\Delta$ and as $n \to \infty$ the minimal number of…
