Let $W_n$ denote the wheel graph having $n$-vertices. If $i$ and $j$ are any two vertices of $W_n$, define \[d_{ij}:= \begin{cases} 0 & \mbox{if}~i=j \\ 1 & \mbox{if}~i~ \mbox{and} ~j~ \mbox{are adjacent} \\ 2 & \mbox{else}. \end{cases}\]…
Several well-known results from the random matrix theory, such as Wigner's law and the Marchenko--Pastur law, can be interpreted (and proved) in terms of non-backtracking walks on a certain graph. Orthogonal polynomials with respect to the…
Let $D$ be an oriented graph. The inversion of a set $X$ of vertices in $D$ consists in reversing the direction of all arcs with both ends in $X$. The inversion number of $D$, denoted by ${\rm inv}(D)$, is the minimum number of inversions…
In case of sparse graphs, relation between the real eigenvalues of the non-backtracking matrix and those of the non-backtracking transition probability matrix is considered with respect to vertex clustering. For this purpose, the random…
In this paper we consider the problem of graph-based transductive classification, and we are particularly interested in the directed graph scenario which is a natural form for many real world applications. Different from existing research…
We study the inertia of distance matrices of weighted graphs. Our novel congruence-based proof of the inertia of weighted trees extends to a proof for the inertia of weighted unicyclic graphs whose cycle is a triangle. Partial results are…
For $\lambda>0$, we define a $\lambda$-damped random walk to be a random walk that is started from a random vertex of a graph and stopped at each step with probability $\frac{\lambda}{1+\lambda}$, otherwise continued with probability…
In 2010, Bezuglyi, Kwiatkowski, Medynets and Solomyak [Ergodic Theory Dynam. Systems 30 (2010), no.4, 973-1007] found a complete description of the set of probability ergodic tail invariant measures on the path space of a standard…
This paper consists of a few results, discovered and proved during the 2012-2013 research group at Eastern Oregon University. Inertia tables are a visual representation of the possible inertias of a given graph. The inertia of a graph…
We formulate three current models of discrete-time quantum walks in a combinatorial way. These walks are shown to be closely related to rotation systems and 1-factorizations of graphs. For two of the models, we compute the traces and total…
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…
We investigate the concept of effective resistance in connection graphs, expanding its traditional application from undirected graphs. We propose a robust definition of effective resistance in connection graphs by focusing on the duality of…
Networks and graphs provide a simple but effective model to a vast set of systems which building blocks interact throughout pairwise interactions. Unfortunately, such models fail to describe all those systems which building blocks interact…
We revisit the problem of estimates of moments of random n-dimensional matrices of Wigner ensemble by using the approach elaborated by Ya. Sinai and A. Soshnikov and further developed by A. Ruzmaikina. Our main subject is given by the…
We establish and generalise several bounds for various random walk quantities including the mixing time and the maximum hitting time. Unlike previous analyses, our derivations are based on rather intuitive notions of local expansion…
We investigate the relationship between the structure of a discrete graphical model and the support of the inverse of a generalized covariance matrix. We show that for certain graph structures, the support of the inverse covariance matrix…
We develop the theory of linear evolution equations associated with the adjacency matrix of a graph, focusing in particular on infinite graphs of two kinds: uniformly locally finite graphs as well as locally finite line graphs. We discuss…
We prove that the (non-symmetric) adjacency matrix of a uniform random $d$-regular directed graph on $n$ vertices is asymptotically almost surely invertible, assuming $\min(d,n-d)\ge C\log^2n$ for a sufficiently large constant $C>0$. The…
We consider weighted, directed graphs with a notion of absorption on the vertices, related to absorbing random walks on graphs. We define a generalized inverse of the graph Laplacian, called the absorption inverse, that reflects both the…
We introduce a new type of discrete quantum walks, called vertex-face walks, based on orientable embeddings. We first establish a spectral correspondence between the transition matrix $U$ and the vertex-face incidence structure. Using the…
