The ranking of nodes in a network according to their centrality or ``importance'' is classic problem that has attracted the interest different scientific communities last decades. COVID-19 pandemic recently rejuvenated this problem, as may be used decide who should tested, vaccinated, first, population asymptomatic individuals. In paper, we review methods for node and compare performance benchmark considers community-based structure society. outcome procedure then which individuals possibly...
Random walks on graphs are often used to analyse and predict epidemic spreads investigate possible control actions mitigate them. In this study, we first show that models based random with a single stochastic agent (such as Google’s popular PageRank) may provide poor description of certain features spread: most notably, spreading times. Then, discuss another Markov chain method does reflect the correct mean infection times for disease spread between individuals in network, determine...
A sign pattern $\mathcal{A}$ is a matrix with entries in $\{+,-,0\}$. This article introduces the allow sequence of distinct eigenvalues for an $n\times n$ $\mathcal{A}$, defined as $q_{\rm seq}(\mathcal{A})=\langle q_1,\ldots,q_n\rangle$, $q_k=1$ if there exists real exactly $k$ having and $q_k=0$ otherwise. For example, 0,\ldots,0,1\rangle$ equivalent to requiring all eigenvalues, while 1,0,\ldots,0\rangle$ digraph being acyclic. Relationships between composite cycles are explored identify...

Abstract Kemeny's constant for a connected graph is the expected time random walk to reach randomly chosen vertex , regardless of choice initial vertex. We extend definition nonbacktracking walks and compare it simple walks. explore relationship between these two parameters several families graphs provide closed‐form expressions regular biregular graphs. In nearly all cases, variant yields smaller constant.

Given a strongly connected directed graph D, let S_D denote the set of all stochastic matrices whose is spanning subgraph D. We consider problem completely describing stationary vectors irreducible members S_D. Results from area convex polytopes and an association each matrix with undirected bipartite are used to derive conditions which must be satisfied by positive probability vector x in order for it admissible as some x, that possess also characterised.

If the Laplacian matrix of a graph has full set orthogonal eigenvectors with entries $\pm1$, then formed by taking columns as is Hadamard and said to be diagonalizable.
 In this article, we prove that if $n=8k+4$ only possible diagonalizable graphs are $K_n$, $K_{n/2,n/2}$, $2K_{n/2}$, $nK_1$, develop computational method for determining all diagonalized given any order. Using these two tools, determine present up order 36. Note it not even known how many matrices there
Kemeny's constant measures how fast a random walker moves around in graph. Expressions for can be quite involved, and this reason, many lines of research focus on graphs with structure that makes them amenable to more in-depth study (for example, regular graphs, acyclic 1-connected graphs). In article, we walks threshold which are an interesting family properties make examining difficult; is, they usually not regular, acyclic, 1-connected. This article is showcase various techniques...
