We study an inverse problem on a finite connected graph G = (X, E), on whose vertices a conductivity {\gamma} is defined. Our data consists in a sequence of partial observations of a fractional random walk on G. The observations are partial…

For a graph class $\Pi$, the $\Pi$-Vertex Deletion problem has as input an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ and an integer $k$ and asks whether there is a set of at most $k$ vertices that can be deleted from $G$ such that the resulting graph is a…

Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ and two vertices $s,t\in V$, the $f$-fault replacement path ($f$FRP) problem computes for every set of edges $F$ where $|F|\leq f$, the distance from $s$ to $t$ when edges in $F$ fail. A recent result shows that 2FRP…

For a finite undirected graph $G = (V,E)$, let $p_{u,v}(t)$ denote the probability that a continuous-time random walk starting at vertex $u$ is in $v$ at time $t$. In this note we give an example of a Cayley graph $G$ and two vertices $u,v…
