Kirchhoff's Matrix-Tree Theorem asserts that the number of spanning trees in a finite graph can be computed from the determinant of any of its reduced Laplacian matrices. In many cases, even for well-studied families of graphs, this can be…
We consider a general stable flow problem in a directed and capacitated network, where each vertex has a strict preference list over the incoming and outgoing edges. A flow is stable if no group of vertices forming a path can mutually…
A network representation is useful for describing the structure of a large variety of complex systems. However, most real and engineered systems have multiple subsystems and layers of connectivity, and the data produced by such systems is…

Recently much attention has been paid to the study of the robustness of interdependent and multiplex networks and, in particular, networks of networks. The robustness of interdependent networks can be evaluated by the size of a mutually…
In this article, we are interested in semilinear, possibly degenerate elliptic equations posed on a general network, with nonlinear Kirchhoff-type conditions for its interior vertices and Dirichlet boundary conditions for the boundary ones.…
Net-trees are a general purpose data structure for metric data that have been used to solve a wide range of algorithmic problems. We give a simple randomized algorithm to construct net-trees on doubling metrics using $O(n\log n)$ time in…
Dual-tree algorithms are a widely used class of branch-and-bound algorithms. Unfortunately, developing dual-tree algorithms for use with different trees and problems is often complex and burdensome. We introduce a four-part logical split:…
We investigate the Kazdan-Warner equation on a network. In this case, the differential equation is defined on each edge, while appropriate transition conditions of Kirchhoff type are prescribed at the vertices. We show that the…
The degree distribution, referred to as the delta-sequence of a network is studied. Using the non-normalized Lorenz curve, we apply a generalized form of the classical majorization partial order. Next, we introduce a new class of small…
We introduce the notion of quota trees in directed graphs. Given a nonnegative integer ``quota'' for each vertex of a directed multigraph $G$, a quota tree is an immersed rooted tree which hits each vertex of $G$ the prescribed number of…
A new characteristic of paired nodes in a directed weight complex network is considered. A method (named as K-method) of the characteristics calculation for complex networks is proposed. The method is based on transforming the initial…
We generalize the theory of k-core percolation on complex networks to k-core percolation on multiplex networks, where k=(k_a, k_b, ...). Multiplex networks can be defined as networks with a set of vertices but different types of edges, a,…
When multiple radio-frequency sources are connected to multiple loads through a passive multiport matching network, perfect power transfer to the loads across all frequencies is generally impossible. In this two-part paper, we provide…

We investigate the finite-time stabilization of a tree-shaped network of strings. Transparent boundary conditions are applied at all the external nodes. At any internal node, in addition to the usual continuity conditions, a modified…
The classical matrix-tree theorem was discovered by G.~Kirchhoff in 1847. It relates the principal minor of the Laplace (nxn)-matrix to a particular sum of monomials indexed by the set of trees with n vertices. The aim of this paper is to…
