A simple Neural Network model is presented for end-to-end visual learning of arithmetic operations from pictures of numbers. The input consists of two pictures, each showing a 7-digit number. The output, also a picture, displays the number…

In this paper, we study two applications of graph minor reduction. In the first part of the paper, we introduce a variant of the boxicity, called strong boxicity, where the rectangular representation satisfies an additional condition that…

The degree set of a finite simple graph $G$ is the set of distinct degrees of vertices of $G$. A theorem of Kapoor, Polimeni & Wall asserts that the least order of a graph with a given degree set $\mathscr D$ is $1+\max \mathscr D$.…

Neural networks have been shown to be an effective tool for learning algorithms over graph-structured data. However, graph representation techniques---that convert graphs to real-valued vectors for use with neural networks---are still in…

Regular colored graphs are dual representations of pure colored D-dimensional complexes. These graphs can be classified with respect to an integer, their degree, much like maps are characterized by the genus. We analyse the structure of…

The algebraic degree $Deg(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the dimension of the splitting field of the adjacency polynomial of $G$ over the field $\mathbb{Q}$. It can be shown that for every positive integer $d$, there exists a circulant graph with…

A 2-factor of a graph is a 2-regular spanning subgraph. For a graph $G$ and an independent set $I$ of $G$, let $\delta_G(I)$ denote the minimum degree of vertices contained in $I$. We show that (1) if every independent set $I$ of $G$…

In his pioneering paper on matroids in 1935, Whitney obtained a characterization for binary matroids and left a comment at end of the paper that the problem of characterizing graphic matroids is the same as that of characterizing matroids…

For a finite simple graph $G$, say $G$ is of dimension $n$, and write $\dim(G) = n$, if $n$ is the smallest integer such that $G$ can be represented as a unit-distance graph in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Define $G$ to be \emph{dimension-critical} if…

A graph $G$ is said to be a `set graph' if it admits an acyclic orientation that is also `extensional', in the sense that the out-neighborhoods of its vertices are pairwise distinct. Equivalently, a set graph is the underlying graph of the…

For a graph $G$, two dominating sets $D$ and $D'$ in $G$, and a non-negative integer $k$, the set $D$ is said to $k$-transform to $D'$ if there is a sequence $D_0,\ldots,D_\ell$ of dominating sets in $G$ such that $D=D_0$, $D'=D_\ell$,…

For finite sequence $\underbar{\em d}$ of positive integers, we consider graphs that have $\underbar{\em d}$ as their list of vertex degrees, and bipartite graphs for which each part has $\underbar{\em d}$ as its list of vertex degrees. In…

A graph G is a 2-tree if G=K_3, or G has a vertex v of degree 2, whose neighbours are adjacent, and G\v{i}s a 2-tree. A characterization of the degree sequences of 2-trees is given. This characterization yields a linear-time algorithm for…

We study characteristics which might distinguish two-graphs by introducing different numerical measures on the collection of graphs on $n$ vertices. Two conjectures are stated, one using these numerical measures and the other using the deck…

Let d = (d1, d2, ..., dn) be a vector of non-negative integers with even sum. We prove some basic facts about the structure of a random graph with degree sequence d, including the probability of a given subgraph or induced subgraph.…

For a simple graph $G$, the $2$-distance graph, $D_2(G)$, is a graph with the vertex set $V(G)$ and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their distance is $2$ in the graph $G$. In this paper, for graphs $G$ with diameter 2, we show that…

A simple graph is called triangular if every edge of it belongs to a triangle. We conjecture that any graphical degree sequence all terms of which are greater than or equal to 4 has a triangular realisation, and establish this conjecture…

Let $\Delta =\{ \delta_1,\delta_2,...,\delta_m \} $ be a finite set of 2-connected patterns, i.e. graphs up to vertex relabelling. We study the generating function $D_{\Delta }(z,u_1,u_2,...,u_m),$ which counts polygon dissections and marks…

An ordered graph $\mathcal{G}$ is a simple graph together with a total ordering on its vertices. The (2-color) Ramsey number of $\mathcal{G}$ is the smallest integer $N$ such that every 2-coloring of the edges of the complete ordered graph…

We show that (n,2^n) additive codes over GF(4) can be represented as directed graphs. This generalizes earlier results on self-dual additive codes over GF(4), which correspond to undirected graphs. Graph representation reduces the…
