In this paper we study distances in random subgraphs of a generalized n-cube [Qscr ]ns over a finite alphabet S of size s. [Qscr ]ns is the direct product of complete graphs over s vertices, its vertices being the n-tuples (x1, …, xn), with xi ∈ S, i = 1, … n, and two vertices being adjacent if they differ in exactly one coordinate. A random (induced) subgraph γ of [Qscr ]ns is obtained by selecting [Qscr ]ns-vertices with independent probability pn and then inducing the corresponding edges from [Qscr ]ns. Our main result is that dγ (P,Q) [les ] [2k+3]d[Qscr ]ns (P,Q) almost surely for P,Q ∈ γ, pn = n−a and 0 [les ] a < ½, where k = [1+3a/1−2a] and dγ and d[Qscr ]ns denote the distances in γ and [Qscr ]ns, respectively.

The planarity of the direct product of two graphs has been widely studied in the past. Surprisingly, the missing part is the product with K2, which seems to be less predictible. In this piece of work, we characterize which subdivisions of multipartite complete graphs, have their direct product with K2 planar. This can be seen as a step towards the characterization of all such graphs.

The product dimension of a graph $G$ is defined as the minimum natural number $l$ such that $G$ is an induced subgraph of a direct product of $l$ complete graphs. In this paper we study the product dimension of forests, bounded treewidth graphs and $k$-degenerate graphs. We show that every forest on $n$ vertices has product dimension at most $1.441 \log n + 3$. This improves the best known upper bound of $3 \log n$ for the same due to Poljak and Pultr. The technique used in arriving at the above bound is extended and combined with a well-known result on the existence of orthogonal Latin squares to show that every graph on $n$ vertices with treewidth at most $t$ has product dimension at most $(t+2)(\log n + 1)$. We also show that every $k$-degenerate graph on $n$ vertices has product dimension at most $\lceil 5.545 k \log n \rceil + 1$. This improves the upper bound of  $32 k \log n$ for the same by Eaton and  Rődl.

Orienteering problem (OP) is an NP-Hard graph problem. The nodes of the graph are associated with scores or rewards and the edges with time delays. The goal is to obtain a Hamiltonian path connecting the two necessary check points, i.e. the source and the target along with a set of control points such that the total collected score is maximized within a specified time limit. OP finds application in several fields like logistics, transportation networks, tourism industry, etc. Most of the existing algorithms for OP can only be applied on complete graphs that satisfy the triangle inequality. Real-life scenario does not guarantee that there exists a direct link between all control point pairs or the triangle inequality is satisfied. To provide a more practical solution, we propose a stochastic greedy algorithm (RWS_OP) that uses the roulette wheel selectionmethod, does not require that the triangle inequality condition is satisfied and is capable of handling both complete as well as incomplete graphs. Based on several experiments on standard benchmark data we show that RWS_OP is faster, more efficient in terms of time budget utilization and achieves a better performance in terms of the total collected score ascompared to a recently reported algorithm for incomplete graphs.

Using the Republic of North Macedonia as a case study, this article analyzes the processes through which national sports teams’ losing performance acquires a broad social and political significance. I explore claims to sporting victory as a direct product of political forces in countries located at the bottom of the global hierarchy that participate in a wider system of coercive rule, frequently referred to as empire. I also analyze how public celebrations of claimed sporting victories are intertwined with nation-building efforts, especially toward the global legitimization of a particular version of national history and heritage. The North Macedonia case provides a fruitful lens through which we can better understand unfolding sociopolitical developments, whereby imaginings of the global interlock with local interests and needs, in the Balkans and beyond.
