A sunlet is a cycle with a pendant edge attached at each vertex of the cycle. For the bipartite toroidal grid graphs $C_{2n} \Box C_{2n}$, factorizations into sunlets are given by homomorphisms from disjoint unions of $s$ copies of a sunlet…

We consider a refinement of the partition function of graph homomorphisms and present a quasi-polynomial algorithm to compute it in a certain domain. As a corollary, we obtain quasi-polynomial algorithms for computing partition functions…

We give the first analysis of the computational complexity of {\it coalition structure generation over graphs}. Given an undirected graph $G=(N,E)$ and a valuation function $v:2^N\rightarrow\RR$ over the subsets of nodes, the problem is to…

We study a new kind of symmetric polynomials P_n(x_1,...,x_m) of degree n in m real variables, which have arisen in the theory of numerical semigroups. We establish their basic properties and find their representation through the power sums…

Symmetric edge polytopes are lattice polytopes associated with finite simple graphs that are of interest in both theory and applications. We investigate the facet structure of symmetric edge polytopes for various models of random graphs.…

In this paper, we explore the concept of the ``matrix product of graphs," initially introduced by Prasad, Sudhakara, Sujatha, and M. Vinay. This operation involves the multiplication of adjacency matrices of two graphs with assigned labels,…

A graph covering projection, also referred to as a locally bijective homomorphism, is a mapping between the vertices and edges of two graphs that preserves incidences and is a local bijection. This concept originates in topological graph…

We introduce a new class of algebras arising from graphs, called binomial edge rings. Given a graph $G$ on $d$ vertices with $n$ edges, the binomial edge ring of $G$ is defined to be the subalgebra of the polynomial ring with $2d$ variables…

A numerical semigroup $S$ is a subset of the non-negative integers containing $0$ that is closed under addition. The Hilbert series of $S$ (a formal power series equal to the sum of terms $t^n$ over all $n \in S$) can be expressed as a…

We study the problem of edge partitioning, where the goal is to partition the edge set of a graph into several parts. The replication factor of a vertex $v$ is the number of parts that contain edges incident to $v$. The goal is to minimize…
