In this paper, subgraphs and complementary graphs are used to analyze the network synchronizability. Some sharp and attainable bounds are provided for the eigenratio of the network structural matrix, which characterizes the network…
Complex networks can be understood as graphs whose connectivity deviates from those of regular or near-regular graphs, which are understood as being `simple'. While a great deal of the attention so far dedicated to complex networks has been…

A pancyclic graph is a simple graph containing a cycle of length $k$ for all $3\leq k\leq n$. Let $m(n)$ be the minimum number of edges of all pancyclic graphs on $n$ vertices. Exact values are given for $m(n)$ for $n\leq 37$, combining…

For a graph $G$, $k(G)$ denotes its connectivity. A graph is super connected if every minimum vertex-cut isolates a vertex. Also $k_{1}$-connectivity of a connected graph is the minimum number of vertices whose deletion gives a disconnected…
Connectivity (or equivalently, unweighted maximum flow) is an important measure in graph theory and combinatorial optimization. Given a graph $G$ with vertices $s$ and $t$, the connectivity $\lambda(s,t)$ from $s$ to $t$ is defined to be…
Correlation clustering provides a method for separating the vertices of a signed graph into the optimum number of clusters without specifying that number in advance. The main goal in this type of clustering is to minimize the number of…
In a graph, the minimum cycle bases are a set of linearly independent cycles that can be used to represent any cycle within that cycle space of graph. These bases are useful in various contexts, including the intricate analysis of…
We generalise a fundamental graph-theoretical fact, stating that every element of the cycle space of a graph is a sum of edge-disjoint cycles, to arbitrary continua. To achieve this we replace graph cycles by topological circles, and…
In this expository paper we present some ideas of algebraic topology (more precisely, of homology theory) in a language accessible to non-specialists in the area. A $1$-cycle in a graph is a set $C$ of edges such that every vertex is…
A cyclic base ordering of a connected graph $G$, is a cyclic ordering of $E(G)$ such that every cyclically consecutive $|V(G)|-1$ edges form a spanning tree. In this project, we study cyclic base ordering of various families of graphs,…

Hypergraphs are a generalization of graphs in which edges can connect any number of vertices. They allow the modeling of complex networks with higher-order interactions, and their spectral theory studies the qualitative properties that can…
The computation of short paths in graphs with arc lengths is a pillar of graph algorithmics and network science. In a more diverse world, however, not every short path is equally valuable. For the setting where each vertex is assigned to a…
