Let $G$ be a graph. The Steiner distance of $W\subseteq V(G)$ is the minimum size of a connected subgraph of $G$ containing $W$. Such a subgraph is necessarily a tree called a Steiner $W$-tree. The set $A\subseteq V(G)$ is a $k$-Steiner…

Let $M=(m_{ij})$ be a symmetric matrix of order $n$ whose elements lie in an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$, and let $G$ be the graph with vertex set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ such that distinct vertices $i$ and $j$ are adjacent if and only if $m_{ij}…

Given a digraph D, the minimum semi-degree of D is the minimum of its minimum indegree and its minimum outdegree. D is k-ordered Hamiltonian if for every ordered sequence of k distinct vertices there is a directed Hamilton cycle which…

One of the aims of this paper is to solve an open problem of Lovasz about relations between graph spectra and cut-distance. The paper starts with several inequalities between two versions of the cut-norm and the two largest singular values…

We prove the cut-off phenomenon in total variation distance for the Brownian motions traced on the classical symmetric spaces of compact type, that is to say: (1) the classical simple compact Lie groups: special orthogonal groups, special…

We determine invariants like the Smith normal form and the determinant for certain integral matrices which arise from the character tables of the symmetric groups S_n and their double covers. In particular, we give a simple computation,…

Given integer $n$ and $k$ such that $0 < k \leq n$ and $n$ piles of stones, two players alternate turns. By one move it is allowed to choose any $k$ piles and remove exactly one stone from each. The player who has to move but cannot is the…

The closed-form solution for the average distance of a deterministic network--Sierpinski network--is found. This important quantity is calculated exactly with the help of recursion relations, which are based on the self-similar network…

We consider the geometric random (GR) graph on the $d-$dimensional torus with the $L_\sigma$ distance measure ($1 \leq \sigma \leq \infty$). Our main result is an exact characterization of the probability that a particular labeled cycle…

A 1989 result of Duarte asserts that for a given tree T on n vertices, a fixed vertex i, and two sets of distinct real numbers L, M of sizes n and n-1, respectively, such that M strictly interlaces L, there is a real symmetric matrix A such…

Let G be a graph with set of vertices 1,...,n and adjacency matrix A of size nxn. Let d(i,j)=d, we say that f_d:N->N is a d-function on G if for every pair of vertices i,j and k>=d, we have a_ij^(k)=f_d(k). If this function f_d exists on G…

The knowledge of end-to-end network distances is essential to many Internet applications. As active probing of all pairwise distances is infeasible in large-scale networks, a natural idea is to measure a few pairs and to predict the other…

The normalized distance Laplacian matrix $\mathcal{D}^{\mathcal{L}}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a natural generalization of the normalized Laplacian matrix, arising from the matrix of pairwise distances between vertices rather than the adjacency…

Let $W_n$ denote the wheel graph having $n$-vertices. If $i$ and $j$ are any two vertices of $W_n$, define \[d_{ij}:= \begin{cases} 0 & \mbox{if}~i=j \\ 1 & \mbox{if}~i~ \mbox{and} ~j~ \mbox{are adjacent} \\ 2 & \mbox{else}. \end{cases}\]…

We study the Hermitian distance degree, a real enumerative invariant counting critical points of the squared Hermitian distance function, for matrix varieties invariant under left and right unitary actions. For such a variety \(M \subset…

A well-known open problem on the behavior of optimal paths in random graphs in the strong disorder regime, formulated by statistical physicists, and supported by a large amount of numerical evidence over the last decade [31,32,38,70] is as…

Let $\phi(x,y)$ be a continuous function, smooth away from the diagonal, such that, for some $\alpha>0$, the associated generalized Radon transforms \begin{equation} \label{Radon} R_t^{\phi}f(x)=\int_{\phi(x,y)=t} f(y) \psi(y)…

We study analytically the order statistics of a time series generated by the successive positions of a symmetric random walk of n steps with step lengths of finite variance \sigma^2. We show that the statistics of the gap d_{k,n}=M_{k,n}…

$\newcommand{\Max}{\mathrm{Max4PC}}$ The Four point condition (4PC henceforth) is a well known condition characterising distances in trees $T$. Let $w,x,y,z$ be four vertices in $T$ and let $d_{x,y}$ denote the distance between vertices…

We introduce the concept of distance mean-regular graph, which can be seen as a generalization of both vertex-transitive and distance-regular graphs. Let $\Gamma$ be a graph with vertex set $V$, diameter $D$, adjacency matrix $A$, and…
