A graph $G$ is weakly $\gamma$-closed if every induced subgraph of $G$ contains one vertex $v$ such that for each non-neighbor $u$ of $v$ it holds that $|N(u)\cap N(v)|<\gamma$. The weak closure $\gamma(G)$ of a graph, recently introduced…

Signed networks are graphs whose edges are labelled with either a positive or a negative sign, and can be used to capture nuances in interactions that are missed by their unsigned counterparts. The concept of balance in signed graph theory…

In this paper, we study (zero) forcing sets which induce connected subgraphs of a graph. The minimum cardinality of such a set is called the connected forcing number of the graph. We provide sharp upper and lower bounds on the connected…

Cluster Editing, also known as Correlation Clustering, is a well-studied graph modification problem. In this problem, one is given a graph and the task is to perform up to $k$ edge additions or deletions to transform it into a cluster…

We consider a framework for clustering edge-colored hypergraphs, where the goal is to cluster (equivalently, to color) objects based on the primary type of multiway interactions they participate in. One well-studied objective is to color…

Motivated by extracting and summarizing relevant information in short sentence settings, such as satisfaction questionnaires, hotel reviews, and X/Twitter, we study the problem of clustering words in a hierarchical fashion. In particular,…

A signed graph is a graph where each edge receives a sign, positive or negative. The signed graph model has been used in many real applications, such as protein complex discovery and social network analysis. Finding cohesive subgraphs in…

We study the behavior of the clustering coefficient in tagged networks. The rich variety of tags associated with the nodes in the studied systems provide additional information about the entities represented by the nodes which can be…

A signed graph is a graph whose edges are signed. In a vertex-signed graph the vertices are signed. The latter is called consistent if the product of signs in every circle is positive. The line graph of a signed graph is naturally…

Given a graph $G$, an {\em obstacle representation} of $G$ is a set of points in the plane representing the vertices of $G$, together with a set of connected obstacles such that two vertices of $G$ are joined by an edge if and only if the…

A graph is closed when its vertices have a labeling by [n] with a certain property first discovered in the study of binomial edge ideals. In this article, we prove that a connected graph has a closed labeling if and only if it is chordal,…

In this paper, we present a novel method for constrained cluster size signed spectral clustering which allows us to subdivide large groups of people based on their relationships. In general, signed clustering only requires K hard clusters…

A signed graph is a graph with edges marked positive and negative; it is unbalanced if some cycle has negative sign product. We introduce the concept of vector valued switching function in signed graphs, which extends the concept of…

We construct a sequence of finite graphs that weakly converge to a Cayley graph, but there is no labelling of the edges that would converge to the corresponding Cayley diagram. A similar construction is used to give graph sequences that…

A signed graph $ (G, \Sigma)$ is a graph positive and negative ($\Sigma $ denotes the set of negative edges). To re-sign a vertex $v$ of a signed graph $ (G, \Sigma)$ is to switch the signs of the edges incident to $v$. If one can obtain $…

As a model problem for clustering, we consider the densest k-disjoint-clique problem of partitioning a weighted complete graph into k disjoint subgraphs such that the sum of the densities of these subgraphs is maximized. We establish that…

A \emph{mixed graph} is a graph with directed edges, called arcs, and undirected edges. A $k$-coloring of the vertices is proper if colors from ${1,2,...,k}$ are assigned to each vertex such that $u$ and $v$ have different colors if $uv$ is…
