Towards an Understanding of Hydraulic Sensitivity: Graph Theory Contributions to Water Distribution Analysis

Water distribution systems (WDSs) are complex networks with numerous interconnected junctions and pipes. The robustness and reliability of these systems are critically dependent on their network structure, necessitating detailed analysis for proactive leak ...

Fast Parallel Algorithms for Enumeration of Simple, Temporal, and Hop-constrained Cycles

Paolo Ienne, Kubilay Atasu, Jovan Blanusa

Cycles are one of the fundamental subgraph patterns and being able to enumerate them in graphs enables important applications in a wide variety of fields, including finance, biology, chemistry, and network science. However, to enable cycle enumeration in r ...

Fast Parallel Algorithms for Enumeration of Simple, Temporal, and Hop-Constrained Cycles

Paolo Ienne, Kubilay Atasu, Jovan Blanusa

Finding cycles in directed graphs enables important applications in various domains such as finance, biology, chemistry, and network science. However, as the size of graph datasets continues to grow, it becomes increasingly difficult to discover cycles wit ...

Unambiguous DNFs and Alon-Saks-Seymour

Mika Tapani Göös, Siddhartha Jain

We exhibit an unambiguous k-DNF formula that requires CNF width (Omega) over tilde (k(2)), which is optimal up to logarithmic factors. As a consequence, we get a near-optimal solution to the Alon-Saks-Seymour problem in graph theory (posed in 1991), which ...

The Paris/Geneva Divide. A Network Analysis of the Archives of the International Committee on Intellectual Cooperation of the League of Nations

The International Committee on Intellectual Cooperation (ICIC) is often framed as a step in the constitution of a “League of Minds” – a place where scientists and writers reign, and a necessary part of a successful and harmonious “League of Nations” – but ...

Nature vs. Nurture: Feature vs. Structure for Graph Neural Networks

Karl Aberer, Quoc Viet Hung Nguyen, Thành Tâm Nguyên, Chi Thang Duong

Graph neural networks take node features and graph structure as input to build representations for nodes and graphs. While there are a lot of focus on GNN models, understanding the impact of node features and graph structure to GNN performance has received ...

Atomic subgraphs and the statistical mechanics of networks

Sofia Charlotta Olhede

We develop random graph models where graphs are generated by connecting not only pairs of vertices by edges, but also larger subsets of vertices by copies of small atomic subgraphs of arbitrary topology. This allows for the generation of graphs with extens ...

Adaptive majority problems for restricted query graphs and for weighted sets

Abhishek Methuku, Balázs Keszegh, Doemoetoer Palvoelgyi

Suppose that the vertices of a graph G are colored with two colors in an unknown way. The color that occurs on more than half of the vertices is called the majority color (if it exists), and any vertex of this color is called a majority vertex. We study th ...

Metric dimension of critical Galton–Watson trees and linear preferential attachment trees

Gergely Odor

The metric dimension of a graph G is the minimal size of a subset R of vertices of G that, upon reporting their graph distance from a distinguished (source) vertex v⋆, enable unique identification of the source vertex v⋆ among all possible vertices of G. I ...

How to Match in Modern Computational Settings

Buddhima Ruwanmini Gamlath Gamlath Ralalage

This thesis focuses on the maximum matching problem in modern computational settings where the algorithms have to make decisions with partial information. First, we consider two stochastic models called query-commit and price-of-information where the algo ...

Symbolic Algorithms for Token Swapping

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Bruno Schmitt Antunes

We study different symbolic algorithms to solve two related reconfiguration problems on graphs: the token swapping problem and the permutation routing via matchings problem. Input to both problems is a connected graph with labeled vertices and a token in e ...

Modeling Network Populations via Graph Distances

Sofia Charlotta Olhede

This article introduces a new class of models for multiple networks. The core idea is to parameterize a distribution on labeled graphs in terms of a Frechet mean graph (which depends on a user-specified choice of metric or graph distance) and a parameter t ...

Space Efficient Approximation to Maximum Matching Size from Uniform Edge Samples

Mikhail Kapralov, Slobodan Mitrovic, Jakab Tardos, Ashkan Norouzi Fard

Given a source of iid samples of edges of an input graph G with n vertices and m edges, how many samples does one need to compute a constant factor approximation to the maximum matching size in G? Moreover, is it possible to obtain such an estimate in a sm ...

A Crossing Lemma for Multigraphs

János Pach

Let G be a drawing of a graph with n vertices and e > 4n edges, in which no two adjacent edges cross and any pair of independent edges cross at most once. According to the celebrated Crossing Lemma of Ajtai, Chvatal, Newborn, Szemeredi and Leighton, the nu ...

How hard is to distinguish graphs with graph neural networks?

Andreas Loukas

A hallmark of graph neural networks is their ability to distinguish the isomorphism class of their inputs. This study derives hardness results for the classification variant of graph isomorphism in the message-passing model (MPNN). MPNN encompasses the maj ...

Edge colorings of graphs without monochromatic stars

Abhishek Methuku

In this note, we improve on results of Hoppen, Kohayakawa and Lefmann about the maximum number of edge colorings without monochromatic copies of a star of a fixed size that a graph on n vertices may admit. Our results rely on an improved application of an ...

Non-Exponential Variations for Classical Results in First Passage Percolation

We study in this thesis the asymptotic behavior of optimal paths on a random graph model, the configuration model, for which we assign continuous random positive weights on its edges. We start by describing the asymptotic behavior of the diameter and the f ...

Scale-dependent measure of network centrality from diffusion dynamics

Alexis Arnaudon

Classic measures of graph centrality capture distinct aspects of node importance, from the local (e.g., degree) to the global (e.g., closeness). Here we exploit the connection between diffusion and geometry to introduce a multiscale centrality measure. A n ...
