Graphs derived from groups are a widely studied class of graphs, motivated by their highly symmetric structure. In particular, G-graphs offer an easy and interesting alternative construction of semi-symmetric graphs. After recalling the…
Frank Harary introduced the concepts of sum and integral sum graphs. A graph $G$ is a \textit{sum graph} if the vertices of $G$ can be labeled with distinct positive integers so that $e = uv$ is an edge of $G$ if and only if the sum of the…
Matrix Graph Grammars (MGG) is a novel approach to the study of graph dynamics ([15]). In the present contribution we look at MGG as a formal grammar and as a model of computation, which is a necessary step in the more ambitious program of…
Topics concerning metric dimension related invariants in graphs are nowadays intensively studied. This compendium of combinatorial and computational results on this topic is an attempt of surveying those contributions that are of the…
Babson and Steingr\'{\i}msson introduced generalized permutation patterns and showed that most of the Mahonian statistics in the literature can be expressed by the combination of generalized pattern functions. Particularly, they defined a…
This book objective is to develop an algebraization of graph grammars. Equivalently, we study graph dynamics. From the point of view of a computer scientist, graph grammars are a natural generalization of Chomsky grammars for which a purely…
We demonstrate that large texts, representing human (English, Russian, Ukrainian) and artificial (C++, Java) languages, display quantitative patterns characterized by the Benford-like and Zipf laws. The frequency of a word following the…
In this paper, we introduce novel characterizations of the classical concept of majorization in terms of upper triangular (resp., lower triangular) row-stochastic matrices, and in terms of sequences of linear transforms on vectors. We used…
In a graph, we assign distinct integers to the vertices, and take the sum of two integers if they are on two adjacent vertices. The minimum possible number of different sums is the \emph{sum index} of this graph. In this paper, we present…
We express the tau constant of a metrized graph in terms of the discrete Laplacian matrix and its pseudo inverse.
Recently, a number of statistical problems have found an unexpected solution by inspecting them through a "modal point of view". These include classical tasks such as clustering or regression. This has led to a renewed interest in…
We propose a modal logic tailored to describe graph transformations and discuss some of its properties. We focus on a particular class of graphs called termgraphs. They are first-order terms augmented with sharing and cycles. Termgraphs…
This article presents a survey of work on lifted graphical models. We review a general form for a lifted graphical model, a par-factor graph, and show how a number of existing statistical relational representations map to this formalism. We…
In 2000, Babson and Steingr\'{i}msson generalized the notion of permutation patterns to the so-called vincular patterns, and they showed that many Mahonian statistics can be expressed as sums of vincular pattern occurrence statistics. STAT…
The present article is devoted to the investigation of some properties of the generalized shift operator of numbers represented in terms of numeral systems with a variable alphabet.
In this work, we consider an extension of graphical models to random graphs, trees, and other objects. To do this, many fundamental concepts for multivariate random variables (e.g., marginal variables, Gibbs distribution, Markov properties)…
In this work, we characterize the class of word-representable graphs with respect to the modular decomposition. Consequently, we determine the representation number of a word-representable graph in terms of the permutation-representation…
We derive a generating function for the number of integer compositions of $n$ into $k$ parts (i.e., $k$-compositions of $n$) with a given number of inversions, and obtain similar results for $k$-compositions of $n$ with a given number of…
Over all graphs (or unicyclic graphs) of a given order, we characterise those graphs that minimise or maximise the number of connected induced subgraphs. For each of these classes, we find that the graphs that minimise the number of…
We give a direct combinatorial proof of the equidistribution of two pairs of permutation statistics, (des, aid) and (lec, inv), which have been previously shown to have the same joint distribution as (exc, maj), the major index and the…
