This paper started as a review of seven results pertaining to a family of bilinear models with rank one NGM introduced by Fall, Iggidr, Sallet and Bonzi, which utilize the explicit eigenvectors of the NGM to compute the unique endemic…
We establish a new functional central limit theorem result for non-invertible measure preserving maps that are not necessarily ergodic, using the Perron-Frobenius operator. We apply the result to asymptotically periodic transformations and…
For integers $k,n$ with $1 \le k \le n/2$, let $f(k,n)$ be the smallest integer $t$ such that every $t$-connected $n$-vertex graph has a spanning bipartite $k$-connected subgraph. A conjecture of Thomassen asserts that $f(k,n)$ is upper…
It is known that given a directed graph E and a subset X of vertices, the sum of the projections associated to the vertices in X in the C*-algebra of E converges strictly in the multiplier algebra to a projection P. Here we give a…
A continuum $X$ is a dendrite if it is locally connected and contains no simple closed curve, a self mapping $f$ of $X$ is called monotone if the preimage of any connected subset of $X$ is connected. If $X$ is a dendrite and $f:X\to X$ is a…
A structure is called homogeneous if every isomorphism between finitely induced substructures of the structure extends to an automorphism of the structure. Recently, P. J. Cameron and J. Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il introduced a relaxed version of…
The Frobenius-Perron theory of an endofunctor of a $\Bbbk$-linear category (recently introduced in [CG]) provides new invariants for abelian and triangulated categories. Here we study Frobenius-Perron type invariants for derived categories…
In network analysis, a measure of node centrality provides a scale indicating how central a node is within a network. The coreness is a popular notion of centrality that accounts for the maximal smallest degree of a subgraph containing a…
In [S. Basu, A. Gabrielov, N. Vorobjov, Semi-monotone sets. arXiv:1004.5047v2 (2011)] we defined semi-monotone sets, as open bounded sets, definable in an o-minimal structure over the reals, and having connected intersections with all…
A digraph is connected-homogeneous if any isomorphism between finite connected induced subdigraphs extends to an automorphism of the digraph. We consider locally-finite connected-homogeneous digraphs with more than one end. In the case that…
An edge-weighted graph $G$, possibly with loops, is said to be antiferromagnetic if it has nonnegative weights and at most one positive eigenvalue, counting multiplicities. The number of graph homomorphisms from a graph $H$ to an…
This paper presents sufficient graph-theoretic conditions for injectivity of collections of differentiable functions on rectangular subsets of R^n. The results have implications for the possibility of multiple fixed points of maps and…
An oriented graph is said positively multiplicative when its adjacency matrix $A$ embeds in a matrix algebra admitting a basis $\mathsf{B}$ with nonnegative structure constants in which the matrix of the multiplication by $A$ coincides with…
We prove that any digraph Brown functor -- i.e. a contravariant functor from the homotopy category of finite directed graphs to the category of abelian groups, satisfying the triviality axiom, the additivity axiom, and the Mayer-Vietoris…
A real seminormed involutive algebra is a real associative algebra ${\mathcal A}$ endowed with an involutive antiautomorphism $*$ and a submultiplicative seminorm $p$ with $p(a^*) =p(a)$ for $a\in {\mathcal A}$. Then ${\mathop{\tt…
In this note, we derive a uniqueness theorem for minimal graphs of general codimension under certain restrictions closed related to the convexity (not strict convexity) of the area functional with respect to singular values, improving the…
A family of random matrices $\boldsymbol{X}^N=(X_1^N,\ldots,X_d^N)$ is said to converge strongly to a family of bounded operators $\boldsymbol{x}=(x_1,\ldots,x_d)$ when $\|P(\boldsymbol{X}^N,\boldsymbol{X}^{N*})\|\to\|P(\boldsymbol{x},…
Let ${\bf A} \in R^{n \times n}$ be a nonnegative irreducible square matrix and let $r({\bf A})$ be its spectral radius and Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue. Levinger asserted and several have proven that $r(t):=r((1{-}t) {\bf A} + t {\bf…
We establish a new and surprisingly strong link between two previously unrelated theories: the theory of moduli spaces of curves ${\mathcal M}_{g,n}$ (which, according to Penner, is controlled by the ribbon graph complex) and the homotopy…
We prove a Kunneth theorem for the Vietoris-Rips homology and cohomology of a semi-uniform space. We then interpret this result for graphs, where we show that the Kunneth theorem holds for graphs with respect to the strong graph product. We…
