A graph $G$ is factored into graphs $H$ and $K$ via a matrix product if there exist adjacency matrices $A$, $B$, and $C$ of $G$, $H$, and $K$, respectively, such that $A = BC$. In this paper, we study the spectral aspects of the matrix…

In this paper, we explore the concept of the ``matrix product of graphs," initially introduced by Prasad, Sudhakara, Sujatha, and M. Vinay. This operation involves the multiplication of adjacency matrices of two graphs with assigned labels,…

A graph is well-dominated if all its minimal dominating sets have the same cardinality. In this paper we prove that at least one factor of every connected, well-dominated Cartesian product is a complete graph, which then allows us to give a…

In this paper, we show that if $G$ is $3$-connected, then the Cartesian product of graphs $G \square H$ embeds on the torus if and only if $G$ is outer-cylindrical and $H$ is a path on two vertices, $P_2$. As a by-product of our work, we…

The practical application of graph prime factorization algorithms is limited in practice by unavoidable noise in the data. A first step towards error-tolerant "approximate" prime factorization, is the development of local approaches that…

We introduce the combinatorial notion of a $q$-fatorization graph intended as a tool to study and express results related to the classification of prime simple modules for quantum affine algebras. These are directed graphs equipped with…

We study when the adjacency matrix of a Cayley graph factors as the product of two adjacency matrices of Cayley graphs. Let $G$ be a finite group and let $U\subseteq G\setminus \{e\}$ be symmetric. Writing $A(G;U)$ for the adjacency matrix…

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 $G_i$…

We show that every nontrivial finite or infinite connected directed graph with loops and at least one vertex without a loop is uniquely representable as a Cartesian or weak Cartesian product of prime graphs. For finite graphs the…

A graph $G$ is a $k$-prime product distance graph if its vertices can be labeled with distinct integers such that for any two adjacent vertices, the difference of their labels is the product of at most $k$ primes. A graph has prime product…

In this paper, we show that every highly edge-connected graph $G$, under a necessary and sufficient degree condition, can be edge-decomposed into $k$ factors $G_1,\ldots, G_k$ such that for each vertex $v\in V(G_i)$ with $1\le i\le k$,…

In this paper, a matrix is said to be prime if the row and column of this matrix are both prime numbers. We establish various necessary and sufficient conditions for developing matrices into the sum of tensor products of prime matrices. For…

A path factor in a graph $G$ is a factor of $G$ in which every component is a path on at least two vertices. Let $T\Box P_n$ be the Cartesian product of a tree $T$ and a path on $n$ vertices. Kao and Weng proved that $T\Box P_n$ is…

Let $G$ be a group. The prime index graph of $G$, denoted by $\Pi(G)$, is the graph whose vertex set is the set of all subgroups of $G$ and two distinct comparable vertices $H$ and $K$ are adjacent if and only if the index of $H$ in $K$ or…

We investigate the uniqueness of factorisation of possibly disconnected finite graphs with respect to the Cartesian, the strong and the direct product. It is proved that if a graph has $n$ connected components, where $n$ is prime, or…

We consider the factorisation problem for bialgebras: when a bialgebra $K$ factorises as $K=HL$, where $H$ and $L$ are algebras and coalgebras (but not necessarly bialgebras). Given two maps $R: H\ot L\to L\ot H$ and $W:L\ot H\to H\ot L$,…

Each natural number can be associated with some tree graph. Namely, a natural number $n$ can be factorized as $$ n = p_1^{\alpha_1}\ldots p_k^{\alpha_k},$$ where $p_i$ are distinct prime numbers. Since $\alpha_i$ are naturals, they can be…

We continue the study of prime simple modules for quantum affine algebras from the perspective of $q$-fatorization graphs. In this paper we establish several properties related to simple modules whose $q$-factorization graphs are afforded…

A graph is \emph{well-dominated} if all of its minimal dominating sets have the same cardinality. We prove that at least one of the factors is well-dominated if the Cartesian product of two graphs is well-dominated. In addition, we show…

Cartesian products of graphs have been studied extensively since the 1960s. They make it possible to decrease the algorithmic complexity of problems by using the factorization of the product. Hypergraphs were introduced as a generalization…
