We review the solution of the $A_r$ Q-systems in terms of the partition function of paths on a weighted graph, and show that it is possible to modify the graphs and transfer matrices so as to provide an explicit connection to the theory of…

The paper is concerned with a system of linear hyperbolic differential equations on a network coupled through general transmission conditions of Kirchhoff's type at the nodes. We discuss the reduction of such a problem to a system of…

We consider a diffusion process on the edges of a finite network and allow for feedback effects between different, possibly non-adjacent edges. This generalizes the setting that is common in the literature, where the only considered…

We derive norm bounds that imply the convergence of perturbation theory in fermionic quantum field theory if the propagator is summable and has a finite Gram constant. These bounds are sufficient for an application in renormalization group…

Networks describe a range of social, biological and technical phenomena. An important property of a network is its degree correlation or assortativity, describing how nodes in the network associate based on their number of connections.…

We analyze pattern formation on a network of cells where each cell inhibits its neighbors through cell-to-cell contact signaling. The network is modeled as an interconnection of identical dynamical subsystems each of which represents the…

We study the effects of nonreciprocity and network structure on percolation. To this end, we investigate nonreciprocal random networks - directed networks for which the probability of a link occurring from node i to node j differs from the…

The investigation of width parameters in both graph and algebraic contexts has attracted considerable interest. Among these parameters, the linear branch width has emerged as a crucial measure. In this concise paper, we explore the concept…

We study the identifiability of nonlinear network systems with partial excitation and partial measurement when the network dynamics is linear on the edges and nonlinear on the nodes. We assume that the graph topology and the nonlinear…

This work studies the limitations of uniquely identifying the structure (i.e., topology) of a networked linear system from partial measurements of its nodal dynamics. In general, many networks can be consistent with these measurements; this…
