We introduce, test and discuss a method for classifying and clustering data modeled as directed graphs. The idea is to start diffusion processes from any subset of a data collection, generating corresponding distributions for reaching…
In the Disjoint Shortest Paths problem one is given a graph $G$ and a set $\mathcal{T}=\{(s_1,t_1),\dots,(s_k,t_k)\}$ of $k$ vertex pairs. The question is whether there exist vertex-disjoint paths $P_1,\dots,P_k$ in $G$ so that each $P_i$…
The $k$-th power of the adjacency matrix of a simple undirected graph represents the number of walks with length $k$ between pairs of nodes. As a walk where no node repeats, a path is a walk where each node is only visited once. The set of…
Finding k disjoint paths (kDP) is a fundamental problem in graph analysis. For vertices s and t, paths from s to t are said to be disjoint if any two of them share no common vertex except s and t. In practice, disjoint paths are widely…
Dyck paths are one of the most important objects in enumerative combinatorics, and there are many papers devoted to counting selected families of Dyck paths. Here we present two approaches for the automatic counting of many such families,…
We propose a natural, parameter-free, discrete-variable formulation of Feynman path integrals. We show that for discrete-variable quantum systems, Feynman path integrals take the form of walks on the graph whose weighted adjacency matrix is…
A recent study characterizing failures in computer networks shows that transient single element (node/link) failures are the dominant failures in large communication networks like the Internet. Thus, having the routing paths globally…
We consider the problem of counting the set of $\mathscr{D}_{a,b}$ of Dyck paths inscribed in a rectangle of size $a\times b$. They are a natural generalization of the classical Dyck words enumerated by the Catalan numbers. By using Ferrers…
We present an analytical approach to calculating the distribution of shortest paths lengths (also called intervertex distances, or geodesic paths) between nodes in unweighted undirected networks. We obtain very accurate results for…
In this survey we overview known results and get several new results on digraph compositions which generalize several classes of digraphs, such as quasi-transitive digraphs. After an introductory section, the paper is divided into six…
A solution of the $k$ shortest paths problem may output paths that are identical up to a single edge. On the other hand, a solution of the $k$ independent shortest paths problem consists of paths that share neither an edge nor an…
We study combinatorial properties of a rational Dyck path by decomposing it into a tuple of Dyck paths. The combinatorial models such as $b$-Stirling permutations, $(b+1)$-ary trees, parenthesis presentations, and binary trees play central…
We introduce an equivalence relation on the set of Dyck paths and some operations on them. We determine a formula for the cardinality of those equivalence classes and use this information to obtain a combinatorial formula for the number of…
The design space of discrete-space diffusion or flow generative models are significantly less well-understood than their continuous-space counterparts, with many works focusing only on a simple masked construction. In this work, we aim to…
Rational Dyck paths are the rational generalization of classical Dyck paths. They play an important role in Catalan combinatorics, and have multiple applications in algebra and geometry. Two statistics over rational Dyck paths called run…
We discuss measures on spaces of unparametrized paths related to the Wiener measure. These measures arise naturally in the study of one-dimensional gravity coupled to scalar fields. Two kinds of discrete approximations are defined, the…
We classify connected finite acyclic graded quivers $Q$ for which the graded path algebra $kQ$, regarded as a formal dg algebra, is silting-discrete. We prove that $kQ$ is silting-discrete if and only if it is derived-discrete, and that…
The enumeration of k-Dyck paths ending at level j after m up-steps, where the last step is an up-step, is given as a sum, improving on a previous formula given by Deng and Mansour.
We illustrate the interplay between certain discrete and continuous problems, by presenting a method for the study of the asymptotics of a divergent sequence, through consideration of the asymptotics of its continuous analogue
A discrete formulation of the real-time path integral as the expectation value of a functional of paths with respect to a complex probability on a sample space of discrete valued paths is explored. The formulation in terms of complex…
