In general the problem of finding a miminum spanning tree for a weighted directed graph is difficult but solvable. There are a lot of differences between problems for directed and undirected graphs, therefore the algorithms for undirected…

We present a new algorithm, which solves the problem of distributively finding a minimum diameter spanning tree of any (non-negatively) real-weighted graph $G = (V,E,\omega)$. As an intermediate step, we use a new, fast, linear-time…

We study the statistics of the optimal path in both random and scale free networks, where weights $w$ are taken from a general distribution $P(w)$. We find that different types of disorder lead to the same universal behavior. Specifically,…

Given a rooted point set $P$, the rooted $y-$Monotone Minimum Spanning Tree (rooted $y-$MMST) of $P$ is the spanning geometric graph of $P$ in which all the vertices are connected to the root by some $y-$monotone path and the sum of the…

In this paper we present and evaluate a parallel algorithm for solving a minimum spanning tree (MST) problem for supercomputers with distributed memory. The algorithm relies on the relaxation of the message processing order requirement for…

We investigate the structural organization of the point-to-point electric, diffusive or hydraulic transport in complex scale-free networks. The random choice of two nodes, a source and a drain, to which a potential difference is applied,…

The construction of minimum spanning trees (MSTs) from correlation matrices is an often used method to study relationships in the financial markets. However most of the work on this topic tends to use the Pearson correlation coefficient,…

The minimal spanning tree (MST) algorithm is a graph-theoretical cluster-finding method. We previously applied it to gamma-ray bidimensional images, showing that it is quite sensitive in finding faint sources. Possible sources are…

Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) is an important graph algorithm that has wide ranging applications in the areas of computer networks, VLSI routing, wireless communications among others. Today virtually every computer is built out of multi-core…

Bounded-angle (minimum) spanning trees were first introduced in the context of wireless networks with directional antennas. They are reminiscent of bounded-degree spanning trees, which have received significant attention. Let $P =…

We study spanning trees on Sierpinski graphs (i.e., finite approximations to the Sierpinski gasket) that are chosen uniformly at random. We construct a joint probability space for uniform spanning trees on every finite Sierpinski graph and…

Finding a minimum spanning tree (MST) for $n$ points in an arbitrary metric space is a fundamental primitive for hierarchical clustering and many other ML tasks, but this takes $\Omega(n^2)$ time to even approximate. We introduce a…

The quadratic minimum spanning tree problem (QMSTP) is the problem of finding a spanning tree of a graph such that the total interaction cost between pairs of edges in the tree is minimized. We first show that most of the bounding…

Choi et. al (2011) introduced a minimum spanning tree (MST)-based method called CLGrouping, for constructing tree-structured probabilistic graphical models, a statistical framework that is commonly used for inferring phylogenetic trees.…

We present an exact mathematical framework able to describe site-percolation transitions in real multiplex networks. Specifically, we consider the average percolation diagram valid over an infinite number of random configurations where…

We introduce a new structure for a set of points in the plane and an angle $\alpha$, which is similar in flavor to a bounded-degree MST. We name this structure $\alpha$-MST. Let $P$ be a set of points in the plane and let $0 < \alpha \le…

In this work we are concerned with the crossover between strong disorder (SD) and weak disorder (WD) behaviors in three well-known problems that involve minimal paths: directed polymers (directed paths with fixed starting point and length),…

We study the problem of privately releasing an approximate minimum spanning tree (MST). Given a graph $G = (V, E, \vec{W})$ where $V$ is a set of $n$ vertices, $E$ is a set of $m$ undirected edges, and $ \vec{W} \in \mathbb{R}^{|E|} $ is an…

Spanning trees are an important quantity characterizing the reliability of a network, however, explicitly determining the number of spanning trees in networks is a theoretical challenge. In this paper, we study the number of spanning trees…

Recent theoretical and empirical studies have focused on the structural properties of complex relational networks in social, biological and technological systems. Here we study the basic properties of twenty 1-square-mile samples of street…
