Every finite graph admits a \emph{simple (topological) drawing}, that is, a drawing where every pair of edges intersects in at most one point. However, in combination with other restrictions simple drawings do not universally exist. For…
Undirected graphical models are powerful tools for uncovering complex relationships among high-dimensional variables. This paper aims to fully recover the structure of an undirected graphical model when the data naturally take matrix form,…
Many complex networks, ranging from social to biological systems, exhibit structural patterns consistent with an underlying hyperbolic geometry. Revealing the dimensionality of this latent space can disentangle the structural complexity of…
Large graphs are difficult to represent, visualize, and understand. In this paper, we introduce "gate graph" - a new approach to perform graph simplification. A gate graph provides a simplified topological view of the original graph.…
A simple topological graph T = (V(T), E(T)) is a drawing of a graph in the plane where every two edges have at most one common point (an endpoint or a crossing) and no three edges pass through a single crossing. Topological graphs G and H…
We study online robust matrix completion on graphs. At each iteration a vector with some entries missing is revealed and our goal is to reconstruct it by identifying the underlying low-dimensional subspace from which the vectors are drawn.…
In recent years, algebraic topology and its modern development, the theory of persistent homology, has shown great potential in graph representation learning. In this paper, based on the mathematics of algebraic topology, we propose a novel…
The main result of this article is the decomposition of tensor products of representations of SL(2) in the sum of irreducible representations parametrized by outerplanar graphs. An outerplanar graph is a graph with the vertices 0, 1, 2,…
Drawing principles, or aesthetics, are important in graph drawing. They are used as criteria for algorithm design and for quality evaluation. Current aesthetics are described as visual properties that a drawing is required to have to be…
Let $G$ be a connected undirected graph on $n$ vertices with no loops but possibly multiedges. Given an arithmetical structure $(\textbf{r}, \textbf{d})$ on $G$, we describe a construction which associates to it a graph $G'$ on $n-1$…
In this paper, we demonstrate that considering experiments in a graph-theoretic manner allows us to exploit automorphisms of the graph to reduce the number of evaluations of candidate designs for those experiments, and thus find optimal…
In this expository paper we present some ideas of algebraic topology (more precisely, of homology theory) in a language accessible to non-specialists in the area. A $1$-cycle in a graph is a set $C$ of edges such that every vertex is…
Nonlinear programming targets nonlinear optimization with constraints, which is a generic yet complex methodology involving humans for problem modeling and algorithms for problem solving. We address the particularly hard challenge of…
Graphs are a natural representation for systems based on relations between connected entities. Combinatorial optimization problems, which arise when considering an objective function related to a process of interest on discrete structures,…
Graph pattern matching is often defined in terms of subgraph isomorphism, an NP-complete problem. To lower its complexity, various extensions of graph simulation have been considered instead. These extensions allow pattern matching to be…
This work studies certain aspects of graphs embedded on surfaces. Initially, a colored graph model for a map of a graph on a surface is developed. Then, a concept analogous to (and extending) planar graph is introduced in the same spirit as…
We consider the problem of computing the topology and describing the geometry of a parametric curve in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We present an algorithm, PTOPO, that constructs an abstract graph that is isotopic to the curve in the embedding space.…
A graph is called 1-planar if it can be drawn on the plane so that each edge is crossed by at most one other edge. In this paper, we establish a local property of 1-planar graphs which describes the structure in the neighborhood of small…
Inspired by the generation power of generative adversarial networks (GANs) in image domains, we introduce a novel hierarchical architecture for learning characteristic topological features from a single arbitrary input graph via GANs. The…
Representing a scanned map of the real environment as a topological structure is an important research topic in robotics. Since topological representations of maps save a huge amount of map storage space and online computing time, they are…
