To each colored graph, one can associate its closure in the universal space of isomorphism classes of pointed colored graphs, and this subspace can be regarded as a generalized subshift. Based on this correspondence, we extend the notion of…

The geometric thickness of a graph G is the minimum integer k such that there is a straight line drawing of G with its edge set partitioned into k plane subgraphs. Eppstein [Separating thickness from geometric thickness. In: Towards a…

Modern methods of graph theory describe a graph up to isomorphism, which makes it difficult to create mathematical models for visualizing graph drawings on a plane. The topological drawing of the planar part of a graph allows representing…

Let D be an acyclic orientation of the graph G. An arc of D is dependent if its reversal creates a directed cycle. Let m(G) denote the minimum number of dependent arcs over all acyclic orientations of G. For any k > 0, a generalized…

An octilinear drawing of a planar graph is one in which each edge is drawn as a sequence of horizontal, vertical and diagonal at 45 degrees line-segments. For such drawings to be readable, special care is needed in order to keep the number…

This paper considers an important Graph Anomaly Detection (GAD) task, namely open-set GAD, which aims to train a detection model using a small number of normal and anomaly nodes (referred to as seen anomalies) to detect both seen anomalies…

Generalized symmetry extends the usual notion of symmetry to ones that are of higher-form, acting on subsystems, non-invertible, etc. The concept was originally defined in the field theory context using the idea of topological defects. On…

In this paper, we introduce a generalized concept of vertex transitivity in graphs called generalized vertex transitivity. We put forward a new invariant called transitivity number of a graph. The value of this invariant in different…

A 2-dimensional point-line framework is a collection of points and lines in the plane which are linked by pairwise constraints that fix some angles between pairs of lines and also some point-line and point-point distances. It is rigid if…

This paper is a study of the dynamics of a new family of maps from the complex plane to itself, which we call twisted tent maps. A twisted tent map is a complex generalization of a real tent map. The action of this map can be visualized as…

A convex geometric graph is a graph whose vertices are the corners of a convex polygon P in the plane and whose edges are boundary edges and diagonals of the polygon. It is called triangulation-free if its non-boundary edges do not contain…

We study the generalized roundness of finite metric spaces whose distance matrix $D$ has the property that every row of $D$ is a permutation of the first row. The analysis provides a way to characterize subsets of the Hamming cube $\{ 0, 1…

The generation of random graphs using edge swaps provides a reliable method to draw uniformly random samples of sets of graphs respecting some simple constraints, e.g. degree distributions. However, in general, it is not necessarily…

In this note a new measure of irregularity of a simple undirected graph $G$ is introduced. It is named the total irregularity of a graph and is defined as $\irr_t(G) = 1/2\sum_{u,v \in V(G)} |d_G(u)-d_G(v)|$, where $d_G(u)$ denotes the…

For a set-valued map, we characterize, in terms of its (unconvexified or convexified) graphical derivatives near the point of interest, positively homogeneous maps that are generalized derivatives in the sense of [20]. This result…

A total dominating set in a graph is a set of vertices such that every vertex of the graph has a neighbor in the set. We introduce and study graphs that admit non-negative real weights associated to their vertices such that a set of…

Introduced the quantitative measure of the structural complexity of the graph (complex network, etc.) based on a procedure similar to the renormalization process, considering the difference between actual and averaged graph structures on…

Chord diagrams, under the name of Gauss diagrams, are used in low-dimensional topology as an important tool for studying curves or knots. Those Gauss diagrams that correspond to curves or knots are called realizable. The theme of our paper…

A graph is said to be globally rigid in $d$-dimensional space if almost all of its embeddings are unique up to isometries. If a graph has enough automorphisms to send any of its vertices into any other, then it is called vertex-transitive.…

Graphs are used in many disciplines to model the relationships that exist between objects in a complex discrete system. Researchers may wish to compare a network of interest to a "typical" graph from a family (or ensemble) of graphs which…
