We introduce a new canonical form of lattices called the systematic normal form (SNF). We show that for every lattice there is an efficiently computable "nearby" SNF lattice, such that for any lattice one can solve lattice problems on its…

The distances between flats of a Poisson $k$-flat process in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space with $k<d/2$ are discussed. Continuing an approach originally due to Rolf Schneider, the number of pairs of flats having distance less than a…

The middle-levels graph $M_k$ ($0<k\in\mathbb{Z}$) has a dihedral quotient pseudograph $R_k$ whose vertices are the $k$-edge ordered trees $T$, each $T$ encoded as a $(2k+1)$-string $F(T)$ formed via $\rightarrow$DFS by: {\bf(i)}…

Using the method of spectral decimation and a modified version of Kirchhoffs Matrix-Tree Theorem, a closed form solution to the number of spanning trees on approximating graphs to a fully symmetric self-similar structure on a finitely…

Graham showed with Pollak and Hoffman-Hosoya that for any directed graph $G$ with strong blocks $G_e$, the determinant $\det(D_G)$ and cofactor-sum $cof(D_G)$ of the distance matrix $D_G$ can be computed from the same quantities for the…

We consider lower bounds on the number of spanning trees of connected graphs with degree bounded by $d$. The question is of interest because such bounds may improve the analysis of the improvement produced by memorisation in the runtime of…

Distance matrices of some star like graphs are investigated in \cite{JAK}. These graphs are trees which are stars, wheel graphs, helm graphs and gear graphs. Except for gear graphs in the above list of star like graphs, there are precise…

With the growing focus on semantic searches and interpretations, an increasing number of standardized vocabularies and ontologies are being designed and used to describe data. We investigate the querying of objects described by a…

In \cite{[K]}, Kaimanovich defined an augmented rooted tree $(X, E)$ corresponding to the Sierpinski gasket $K$, and showed that the Martin boundary of the simple random walk $\{Z_n\}$ on it is homeomorphic to $K$. It is of interest to…

We consider a Markov chain X_1, X_2, ..., X_n belonging to a class of iterated random functions, which is "one-step contracting" with respect to some distance d. If f is any separately Lipschitz function with respect to d, we use a well…

In a geometric network G = (S, E), the graph distance between two vertices u, v in S is the length of the shortest path in G connecting u to v. The dilation of G is the maximum factor by which the graph distance of a pair of vertices…

It is known that any symmetric matrix $M$ with entries in $\R[x]$ and which is positive semi-definite for any substitution of $x\in\R$, has a Smith normal form whose diagonal coefficients are constant sign polynomials in $\R[x]$. We…

The Hausdorff distance is a relatively new measure of similarity of graphs. The notion of the Hausdorff distance considers a special kind of a common subgraph of the compared graphs and depends on the structural properties outside of the…

We study the average probability that a discrete-time quantum walk finds a marked vertex on a graph. We first show that, for a regular graph, the spectrum of the transition matrix is determined by the weighted adjacency matrix of an…

A spanning tree $T$ in a graph $G$ is a sub-graph of $G$ with the same vertex set as $G$ which is a tree. In 1981, McKay proved an asymptotic result regarding the number of spanning trees in random $k$-regular graphs. In this paper we prove…

We introduce the tree distance, a new distance measure on graphs. The tree distance can be computed in polynomial time with standard methods from convex optimization. It is based on the notion of fractional isomorphism, a characterization…

We obtain a simple and complete characterisation of which matchings on the Tait graph of a knot diagram induce a discrete Morse function (dMf) on $S^2$, extending a construction due to Cohen. We show these dMfs are in bijection with certain…

A permutation $\boldsymbol w$ gives rise to a graph $G_{\boldsymbol w}$; the vertices of $G_{\boldsymbol w}$ are the letters in the permutation and the edges of $G_{\boldsymbol w}$ are the inversions of $\boldsymbol w$. We find that the…

The distribution of distances in the star graph $ST_n$, ($1<n\in\Z$), is established, and subsequently a threaded binary tree is obtained that realizes an orientation of $ST_n$ whose levels are given by the distances to the identity…

Signed graphs have their edges labeled either as positive or negative. $\rho(M)$ denote the $M$-spectral radius of $\Sigma$, where $M=M(\Sigma)$ is a real symmetric graph matrix of $\Sigma$. Obviously,…
