In this paper we introduce a new notion of convergence of sparse graphs which we call Large Deviations or LD-convergence and which is based on the theory of large deviations. The notion is introduced by "decorating" the nodes of the graph…
Persistence diagrams (PD)s play a central role in topological data analysis. This analysis requires computing distances among such diagrams such as the $1$-Wasserstein distance. Accurate computation of these PD distances for large data sets…
Using an inverse of the standard linear congruential random number generator, large randomly occupied lattices can be visited by a random walker without having to determine the occupation status of every lattice site in advance. In seven…
A popular question in Bernoulli percolation models is if the probability of connection between two vertices in a transitive graph decays monotonically with the distance between these two vertices. For example, on the square lattice is an…
We prove that the set of thick points of the log-correlated Gaussian field contains an unbounded path in sufficiently high dimensions. This contrasts with the two-dimensional case, where Aru, Papon, and Powell (2023) showed that the set of…
Many real networks are embedded in space, where in some of them the links length decay as a power law distribution with distance. Indications that such systems can be characterized by the concept of dimension were found recently. Here, we…
We give a complete description of the distance relation on the graph of $4$-ary simplex codes of dimension $2$. This is a connected graph of diameter $3$. For every vertex we determine the sets of all vertices at distance $i\in\{1,2,3\}$…
Given $p$ node pairs in an $n$-node graph, a distance preserver is a sparse subgraph that agrees with the original graph on all of the given pairwise distances. We prove the following bounds on the number of edges needed for a distance…
Motivated by an application in wireless telecommunication networks, we consider a two-type continuum-percolation problem involving a homogeneous Poisson point process of users and a stationary and ergodic point process of base stations.…
We investigate first-passage percolation on the lattice $\Z^d$ for dimensions $d \geq 2$. Each edge $e$ of the graph is assigned an independent copy of a non-negative random variable $\tau$. We only assume $\P[\tau=0]0$ is explicit) for the…
We consider vertex percolation on pseudo-random $d-$regular graphs. The previous study by the second author established the existence of phase transition from small components to a linear (in $\frac{n}{d}$) sized component, at…
The Levenshtein distance is an important tool for the comparison of symbolic sequences, with many appearances in genome research, linguistics and other areas. For efficient applications, an approximation by a distance of smaller…
We consider Bernoulli first-passage percolation on the triangular lattice in which sites have 0 and 1 passage times with probability $p$ and $1-p$, respectively. For each $p\in(0,p_c)$, let $\mathcal {B}(p)$ be the limit shape in the…
We suggest a method for embedding scale-free networks, with degree distribution P(k) k^-lambda, in regular Euclidean lattices. The embedding is driven by a natural constraint of minimization of the total length of the links in the system.…
Let P_1 and P_2 be two sets of points in the plane, so that P_1 is contained in a line L_1, P_2 is contained in a line L_2, and L_1 and L_2 are neither parallel nor orthogonal. Then the number of distinct distances determined by the pairs…
The dimension of a graph $G$ is the smallest $d$ for which its vertices can be embedded in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space in the sense that the distances between endpoints of edges equal $1$ (but there may be other unit distances).…
In this note we study the field theory of dynamic isotropic percolation (DIP) with quenched randomness that has long range correlations decaying as $r^{-a}$. We argue that the quasi static limit of this field theory describes the critical…
We provide a sufficient criterion for the recurrence of spatial random graphs on the real line based on the scarceness of long-edges. In particular, this complements earlier recurrence results obtained by Gracar et al. (Electron. J. Probab.…
The walk distances in graphs are defined as the result of appropriate transformations of the $\sum_{k=0}^\infty(tA)^k$ proximity measures, where $A$ is the weighted adjacency matrix of a connected weighted graph and $t$ is a sufficiently…
The directed percolation (DP) hypothesis for stochastic, range-4 cellular automata with acceptance rule $y \le\sum_{j=-4}^4 s_{i-j} \le 6$, in cases of $y < 6$ was investigated in one and two dimensions. Simulations, mean-field…
