The universal approximation theorem is generalised to uniform convergence on the (noncompact) input space $\mathbb{R}^n$. All continuous functions that vanish at infinity can be uniformly approximated by neural networks with one hidden…
Can one hear the 'sound' of a growing network? We address the problem of recognizing the topology of evolving biological or social networks. Starting from percolation theory, we analytically prove a linear inverse relationship between two…
We show that each refinable map preserves colocal connectedness of the domain while a proximately refinable map does not necessarily. Also, we prove that colocal connectedness is a Whitney property and is not a Whitney reversible property.
A graph $H$ is ubiquitous if for every graph $G$ that for every natural number $n$ contains $n$ vertex-disjoint $H$-minors contains infinitely many vertex-disjoint $H$-minors. Andreae conjectured that every locally finite graph is…
In a paper by Nishikawa and Motter, a quantity called the normalized spread of the Laplacian eigenvalues is used to measure the synchronizability of certain network dynamics. Through simulations, and without theoretical validation, it is…
Latent Euclidean embedding models a given network by representing each node in a Euclidean space, where the probability of two nodes sharing an edge is a function of the distances between the nodes. This implies that for two nodes to share…
Regular ring lattices (RRLs) are defined as peculiar undirected circulant graphs constructed from a cycle graph, wherein each node is connected to pairs of neighbors that are spaced progressively in terms of vertex degree. This kind of…
We propose a class of networks which can be regarded as an extension of the graphitic network. These networks are constructed so that surface states with non-bonding character (edge states) are formed in a tight-binding model with one…
We give identities for the voltage and resistance functions on a metrized graph to show how these functions behave under any edge deletion/contraction and the identification of any two vertices. This leads to explicit versions of Rayleigh's…
A network is a countable, connected graph X viewed as a one-complex, where each edge [x,y]=[y,x] (x,y in X^0, the vertex set) is a copy of the unit interval within the graph's one-skeleton X^1 and is assigned a positive conductance c(xy). A…
Given a `genus' function $g=g(n)$, we let $\mathcal{E}^g$ be the class of all graphs $G$ such that if $G$ has order $n$ (that is, has $n$ vertices) then it is embeddable in a surface of Euler genus at most $g(n)$. Let the random graph $R_n$…
Let $\Lambda(T)$ denote the set of leaves in a tree $T$. One natural problem is to look for a spanning tree $T$ of a given graph $G$ such that $\Lambda(T)$ is as large as possible. This problem is called maximum leaf number, and it is a…
We say a directed graph $G$ on $n$ vertices is irredundant if the removal of any edge reduces the number of ordered pairs of distinct vertices $(u,v)$ such that there exists a directed path from $u$ to $v$. We determine the maximum possible…
The second-largest eigenvalue and second-smallest Laplacian eigenvalue of a graph are measures of its connectivity. These eigenvalues can be used to analyze the robustness, resilience, and synchronizability of networks, and are related to…
The theory of graphons has proven to be a powerful tool in many areas of graph theory. In this paper, we introduce several foundational aspects of the theory of digraphons -- asymmetric two-variable functions that arise as limits of…
The reliability polynomial of a graph gives the probability that a graph remains operational when all its edges could fail independently with a certain fixed probability. In general, the problem of finding uniformly most reliable graphs…
Let $\mathcal{H}=\{H_i: i<\alpha \}$ be an indexed family of graphs for some ordinal number $\alpha$. $\mathcal{H}$-decomposition of a graph $G$ is a family $\mathcal{G}=\{G_i: i<\alpha \}$ of edge-disjoint subgraphs of $G$ such that $G_i$…
For a graph G, the generating function of rooted forests, counted by the number of connected components, can be expressed in terms of the eigenvalues of the graph Laplacian. We generalize this result from graphs to cell complexes of…
