The main result of this paper states, that if a function $f:\R^2\to [0, +\infty)$ has a closed graph and the set of discontinuity points is a network (as defined by Kuratowski in Topology II, 61.IV), then the graph of $f$ is disconnected.…
We propose a novel method for topological analysis of unweighted graphs which is based on \textit{persistent homology}. The proposed method maps the input graph to a complete weighted graph where the weighting function maps each edge to a…
Graphs are commonly used in mathematics to represent some relationships between items. However, as simple objects, they sometimes fail to capture all relevant aspects of real-world data. To address this problem, we generalize them and model…
Given a social network, which of its nodes are more central? This question has been asked many times in sociology, psychology and computer science, and a whole plethora of centrality measures (a.k.a. centrality indices, or rankings) were…
The complexity of a graph is the number of its labeled spanning trees. In this work complexity is studied in settings that admit regular graphs. An exact formula is established linking complexity of the complement of a regular graph to…
We study in-network computation on general network topologies. Specifically, we are given the description of a function, and a network with distinct nodes at which the operands of the function are made available, and a designated sink where…
Temporal networks, i.e., networks in which the interactions among a set of elementary units change over time, can be modelled in terms of time-varying graphs, which are time-ordered sequences of graphs over a set of nodes. In such graphs,…
Characterization of real-world complex systems increasingly involves the study of their topological structure using graph theory. Among global network properties, small-world property, consisting in existence of relatively short paths…
Here we review the many aspects and distinct phenomena associated to quantum dynamics on general graph structures. For so, we discuss such class of systems under the energy domain Green's function ($G$) framework. This approach is…
In the last two decades we are witnessing a huge increase of valuable big data structured in the form of graphs or networks. To apply traditional machine learning and data analytic techniques to such data it is necessary to transform graphs…
In this paper, a function on any pair of graphs is defined whose properties are similar to the properties of dot product in vector space. This function enables us to define graph orthogonality and, also, a new metric on isomorphism classes…
Urban mobility forecast and analysis can be addressed through grid-based and graph-based models. However, graph-based representations have the advantage of more realistically depicting the mobility networks and being more robust since they…
Finding the important nodes in complex networks by topological structure is of great significance to network invulnerability. Several centrality measures have been proposed recently to evaluate the performance of nodes based on their…
We develop a functional analytic approach for the study of nonlocal minimal graphs. Through this, we establish existence and uniqueness results, a priori estimates, comparison principles, rearrangement inequalities, and the equivalence of…
This paper proposes a new measure of node centrality in social networks, the Harmonic Influence Centrality, which emerges naturally in the study of social influence over networks. Using an intuitive analogy between social and electrical…
Keys for graphs uses the topology and value constraints needed to uniquely identify entities in a graph database. They have been studied to support object identification, knowledge fusion, data deduplication, and social network…
As a measure for the centrality of a point in a set of multivariate data, statistical depth functions play important roles in multivariate analysis, because one may conveniently construct descriptive as well as inferential procedures…
We associate all small subgraph counting problems with a systematic graph encoding/representation system which makes a coherent use of graphlet structures. The system can serve as a unified foundation for studying and connecting many…
Functionality is a graph complexity measure that extends a variety of parameters, such as vertex degree, degeneracy, clique-width, or twin-width. In the present paper, we show that functionality is bounded for box intersection graphs in…
This paper introduces a novel topology, referred to as the star topology, on finite graphs. By treating vertices and edges as points in a unified space, we explore continuous maps between Bare representations of a graph and their…
