A graph $G$ is a \emph{max point-tolerance (MPT)} graph if each vertex $v$ of $G$ can be mapped to a \emph{pointed-interval} $(I_v, p_v)$ where $I_v$ is an interval of $\mathbb{R}$ and $p_v \in I_v$ such that $uv$ is an edge of $G$ iff $I_u…

We consider the problem of determining the proportion of edges that are discovered in an Erdos-Renyi graph when one constructs all shortest paths from a given source node to all other nodes. This problem is equivalent to the one of…

Time-varying networks describe a wide array of systems whose constituents and interactions evolve over time. They are defined by an ordered stream of interactions between nodes, yet they are often represented in terms of a sequence of…

A permutation of the elements of a graph is a {\it construction sequence} if no edge is listed before either of its endpoints. The complexity of such a sequence is investigated by finding the delay in placing the edges, an {\it opportunity…

Temporal graphs are graphs whose nodes and edges, together with their associated properties, continuously change over time. With the development of Internet of Things (IoT) systems, a subclass of the temporal graph, i.e., Property Evolution…

We provide a linear time algorithm to determine the flip distance between two plane spanning paths on a point set in convex position. At the same time, we show that the happy edge property does not hold in this setting. This has to be seen…
