In this paper, firstly, we will study the structure of the path complex $(\Omega_*(G;\Z),\partial)$ of a digraph $G$ via the $\Z$-generators of $\Omega_*(G,\Z)$ under strongly regular condition, which is called the minimal path in…

For simply laced $SU(3)$ graphs we offer a geometric understanding of the path creation and annihilation operators for $SU(3)$ in terms of creation and annihilation of sequences of three vertices forming triangular cells or collapsed…

We present an algorithm to compute path homology for simple digraphs, and use it to topologically analyze various small digraphs en route to an analysis of complex temporal networks which exhibit such digraphs as underlying motifs. The…

Let $G$ be a complex classical group, and let $V$ be its defining representation (possibly plus a copy of the dual). A foundational problem in classical invariant theory is to write down generators and relations for the ring of…

We prove that every 3-connected planar graph on $n$ vertices contains an induced path on $\Omega(\log n)$ vertices, which is best possible and improves the best known lower bound by a multiplicative factor of $\log \log n$. We deduce that…

Computing the directed path-width of a directed graph is an NP-hard problem. Even for digraphs of maximum semi-degree 3 the problem remains hard. We propose a decomposition of an input digraph G=(V,A) by a number k of sequences with entries…

For a digraph $G$ without multisquares and a field $\mathbb{F}$, we construct a basis of the vector space of path $n$-chains $\Omega_n(G;\mathbb{F})$ for $n\geq 0$, generalising the basis of $\Omega_3(G;\mathbb{F})$ constructed by…

We study the $P_3$-convexity, the path convexity generated by all three-vertex paths, and focus on the problem of counting the $P_3$-convex vertex sets of a graph $G$, denoted by $\noc(G)$. First, we settle the associated extremal question:…

We give a construction that provides infinitely many 2-connected, cubic, bipartite, and planar graphs G with 3k vertices and such that the number of disjoint copies of a 3-vertex path in G is less than k.

One of the most discussed issues in graph generative modeling is the ordering of the representation. One solution consists of using equivariant generative functions, which ensure the ordering invariance. After having discussed some…

We show how to construct path integrals for quantum mechanical systems where the space of configurations is a general non-compact symmetric space. Associated with this path integral is a perturbation theory which respects the global…

Path homology plays a central role in digraph topology and GLMY theory more general. Unfortunately, the computation of the path homology of a digraph $G$ is a two-step process, and until now no complete description of even the underlying…

A planar orthogonal drawing {\Gamma} of a connected planar graph G is a geometric representation of G such that the vertices are drawn as distinct points of the plane, the edges are drawn as chains of horizontal and vertical segments, and…

Let $P$ be a path graph of $n$ vertices embedded in a metric space. We consider the problem of adding a new edge to $P$ such that the diameter of the resulting graph is minimized. Previously (in ICALP 2015) the problem was solved in…

Fix a finite group $G$. We study the computational complexity of counting problems of the following flavor: given a group $\Gamma$, count the number of homomorphisms $\Gamma \to G$. Our first result establishes that this problem is…

Given any simple biorientable graph it is shown that there exists a weak {*}-Hopf algebra constructed on the vector space of graded endomorphisms of essential paths on the graph. This construction is based on a direct sum decomposition of…

The algebra of invariants of several 3 x 3 matrices under the action of the orthogonal group by simultaneous conjugation is considered over a field of characteristic different from two. The maximal degree of elements of minimal system of…

We study the \emph{picture space} $X^d(G)$ of all embeddings of a finite graph $G$ as point-and-line arrangements in an arbitrary-dimensional projective space, continuing previous work on the planar case. The picture space admits a natural…

Let $P$ be a set of $n \geq 5$ points in convex position in the plane. The path graph $G(P)$ of $P$ is an abstract graph whose vertices are non-crossing spanning paths of $P$, such that two paths are adjacent if one can be obtained from the…

We study the problem of partitioning the vertex set of a given graph so that each part induces a graph with components of bounded order; we are also interested in restricting these components to be paths. In particular, we say a graph $G$…
