A basic fact in spectral graph theory is that the number of connected components in an undirected graph is equal to the multiplicity of the eigenvalue zero in the Laplacian matrix of the graph. In particular, the graph is disconnected if…
Metric dimension is a graph parameter that has been applied to robot navigation and finding low-dimensional vector embeddings. Throttling entails minimizing the sum of two available resources when solving certain graph problems. In this…
Spectral clustering is a popular tool in network data analysis, with applications in a variety of scientific application areas. However, many studies have shown that classical spectral clustering does not perform well on certain network…
Graph spanners are sparse subgraphs which approximately preserve all pairwise shortest-path distances in an input graph. The notion of approximation can be additive, multiplicative, or both, and many variants of this problem have been…
Diameter, radius and eccentricities are fundamental graph parameters, which are extensively studied in various computational settings. Typically, computing approximate answers can be much more efficient compared with computing exact…
A key concept for many graph layout algorithms is planarity, a graph property that allows to draw vertices and edges crossing-free in the plane. Important is the generalization to $k$-planar graphs, which can be drawn in the plane with at…
In this paper we propose a new approach to detect clusters in undirected graphs with attributed vertices. We incorporate structural and attribute similarities between the vertices in an augmented graph by creating additional vertices and…
We explore a new type of sparsity for the generalized moment problem (GMP) that we call ideal-sparsity. This sparsity exploits the presence of equality constraints requiring the measure to be supported on the variety of an ideal generated…
We study the directed maximum common edge subgraph problem (DMCES) for the class of directed graphs that are finite, weakly connected, oriented, and simple. We use DMCES to define a metric on partially ordered sets that can be represented…
Asymptotic dimension is a large-scale invariant of metric spaces that was introduced by Gromov (1993). We prove that every hereditary class of bounded-degree graphs that excludes some graph as a fat minor has asymptotic dimension at most…
In this paper, we exploit the theory of dense graph limits to provide a new framework to study the stability of graph partitioning methods, which we call structural consistency. Both stability under perturbation as well as asymptotic…
In this paper, we introduce a new concept: the transfinite fractal dimension of graph sequences motivated by the notion of fractality of complex networks proposed by Song et al. We show that the definition of fractality cannot be applied to…
In recent years, a variety of randomized constructions of sketching matrices have been devised, that have been used in fast algorithms for numerical linear algebra problems, such as least squares regression, low-rank approximation, and the…
We consider here a new statistical measure for cosmic shear, the aperture mass Map, which is defined as a spatially filtered projected density field and which can be measured directly from the image distortions of high-redshift galaxies. By…
The category of metric spaces is a subcategory of quasi-metric spaces. In this paper the notion of entropy for the continuous maps of a quasi-metric space is extended via spanning and separated sets. Moreover, two metric spaces that are…
We present a new notion of limits of weighted directed graphs of growing size based on convergence of their random quotients. These limits are specified in terms of random exchangeable measures on the unit square. We call our limits…
Nowhere dense classes of graphs are very general classes of uniformly sparse graphs with several seemingly unrelated characterisations. From an algorithmic perspective, a characterisation of these classes in terms of uniform quasi-wideness,…
Designing small-sized \emph{coresets}, which approximately preserve the costs of the solutions for large datasets, has been an important research direction for the past decade. We consider coreset construction for a variety of general…
Discrepancy theory provides powerful tools for producing higher-quality objects which "beat the union bound" in fundamental settings throughout combinatorics and computer science. However, this quality has often come at the price of more…
Metric dimensions and metric basis are graph invariants studied for their use in locating and indexing nodes in a graph. It was recently established that for bicyclic graph of type-III ($\Theta $-graphs), the metric dimension is $3$ only,…
