The coherent configuration $\mathsf{WL}(X)$ of a graph $X$ is the smallest coherent configuration on the vertices of $X$ that contains the edge set of $X$ as a relation. The aim of the paper is to study $\mathsf{WL}(X)$ when $X$ is a…

A graph \( G \) is said to be (vertex) non-repetitively colored if no simple path in \( G \) has a sequence of vertex colors that forms a repetition. Formally, a coloring \( c: V(G) \to \{1, 2, \dots, k\} \) is non-repetitive if, for every…

The notion of word-representable graphs is a generalization of comparability graphs, in which graphs are represented by words. The complexity of word-representation of a word-representable graph is captured through the representation…

For an ordered set $W=\{w_1,w_2,...,w_k\}$ of vertices and a vertex $v$ in a connected graph $G$, the ordered $k$-vector $r(v|W):=(d(v,w_1),d(v,w_2),...,d(v,w_k))$ is called the (metric) representation of $v$ with respect to $W$, where…

We study the diameter of the graph $G(w)$ of reduced words of an element $w$ in a Coxeter group $W$ whose edges correspond to applications of the Coxeter relations. We resolve conjectures of Reiner--Roichman and Dahlberg--Kim by proving a…

In this paper we study graphs defined by pattern-avoiding words. Word-representable graphs have been studied extensively following their introduction in 2000 and are the subject of a book published by Kitaev in 2015. Recently there has been…

Several popular language models represent local contexts in an input text $x$ as bags of words. Such representations are naturally encoded by a sequence graph whose vertices are the distinct words occurring in $x$, with edges representing…

A simple graph G is said to be representable in a real vector space of dimension m if there is an embedding of the vertex set in the vector space such that the Euclidean distance between any two distinct vertices is one of only two distinct…

In an EPG-representation of a graph $G$ each vertex is represented by a path in the rectangular grid, and $(v,w)$ is an edge in $G$ if and only if the paths representing $v$ an $w$ share a grid-edge. Requiring paths representing edges to be…

A word-graph Gw is a digraph represented by a word w such that the vertex-set V(Gw) is the alphabet of w and the edge-set E(Gw) is determined by non-identical adjacent letter pairs in w. In this paper we study the strong-connectivity of…

Generalizing a recent result of Mann, we show that there is an explicit function $f:\left(0,1\right]\rightarrow\left(0,1\right]$ such that for every reduced word $w$, say in $d$ variables, there is an explicit reduced word $v$ in at most…

For a graph $G = (V, E)$, the $\gamma$-graph of $G$, denoted $G(\gamma) = (V(\gamma), E(\gamma))$, is the graph whose vertex set is the collection of minimum dominating sets, or $\gamma$-sets of $G$, and two $\gamma$-sets are adjacent in…

The width $\wid(G,W)$ of the verbal subgroup $v(G,W)$ of a group $G$ defined by a collection of group words $W$ is the smallest number $m$ in $\mathbb N \cup {+\infty}$ such that every element of $v(G,W)$ is can be represented as the…

A graph $G$ is {\it weakly semiregular} if there are two numbers $a,b$, such that the degree of every vertex is $a$ or $b$. The {\it weakly semiregular number} of a graph $G$, denoted by $wr(G)$, is the minimum number of subsets into which…

The lettericity of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is defined as the smallest size of an alphabet $\Sigma$ such that there is a word $w_1 \dots w_{|V|} \in \Sigma^*$ and a decoder $\mathcal{D} \subseteq \Sigma^2$ with the property that $G$ is isomorphic…
