We study weighted graphs and their "edge ideals" which are ideals in polynomial rings that are defined in terms of the graphs. We provide combinatorial descriptions of m-irreducible decompositions for the edge ideal of a weighted graph in terms of the combinatorics of "weighted vertex covers". We use these, for instance, to say when these ideals are m-unmixed. We explicitly describe which weighted cycles, suspensions, and trees are unmixed and which ones are Cohen–Macaulay, and we prove that all weighted complete graphs are Cohen–Macaulay.

We characterize all graphs whose binomial edge ideals have a linear resolution. Indeed, we show that complete graphs are the only graphs with this property. We also compute some graded components of the first Betti number of the binomial edge ideal of a graph with respect to the graphical terms. Finally, we give an upper bound for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the binomial edge ideal of a closed graph.

A draining is a stochastic process defined by an urn scheme where the successive drawings are made without replacement and according to a drawing algorithm associated with a weighted graph. A draining is said to be a strong one if the number of balls which can be drawn from the urn (under the algorithm) converges in probability to the total number of balls in the urn at the beginning of the drawing when it goes to infinity. In particular, drainings associated with complete graphs having equal weights are found to be strong and for some others associated weighted graphs, strong drainings exist.

We give an upper bound for the Stanley depth of the edge ideal I of a k-partite complete graph and show that Stanley’s conjecture holds for I. Also we give an upper bound for the Stanley depth of the edge ideal of a s-uniform complete bipartite hypergraph.

The understanding of infectious diseases is a priority in the field of public health. This has generated the inclusion of several disciplines and tools that allow for analyzing the dissemination of infectious diseases. The aim of this manuscript is to model the spreading of a disease in a population that is registered in a database. From this database, we obtain an edge-weighted graph. The spreading was modeled with the classic SIR model. The model proposed with edge-weighted graph allows for identifying the most important variables in the dissemination of epidemics. Moreover, a deterministic approximation is provided. With database COVID-19 from a city in Chile, we analyzed our model with relationship variables between people. We obtained a graph with 3866 vertices and 6,841,470 edges. We fitted the curve of the real data and we have done some simulations on the obtained graph. Our model is adjusted to the spread of the disease. The model proposed with edge-weighted graph allows for identifying the most important variables in the dissemination of epidemics, in this case with real data of COVID-19. This valuable information allows us to also include/understand the networks of dissemination of epidemics diseases as well as the implementation of preventive measures of public health. These findings are important in COVID-19’s pandemic context.

Given a nontrivial homogeneous ideal [Formula: see text], a problem of great recent interest has been the comparison of the [Formula: see text]th ordinary power of [Formula: see text] and the [Formula: see text]th symbolic power [Formula: see text]. This comparison has been undertaken directly via an exploration of which exponents [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] guarantee the subset containment [Formula: see text] and asymptotically via a computation of the resurgence [Formula: see text], a number for which any [Formula: see text] guarantees [Formula: see text]. Recently, a third quantity, the symbolic defect, was introduced; as [Formula: see text], the symbolic defect is the minimal number of generators required to add to [Formula: see text] in order to get [Formula: see text]. We consider these various means of comparison when [Formula: see text] is the edge ideal of certain graphs by describing an ideal [Formula: see text] for which [Formula: see text]. When [Formula: see text] is the edge ideal of an odd cycle, our description of the structure of [Formula: see text] yields solutions to both the direct and asymptotic containment questions, as well as a partial computation of the sequence of symbolic defects.

The normality of a monomial ideal is expressed in terms of lattice points of blocking polyhedra and the integer decomposition property. For edge ideals of clutters this property characterizes normality. Let $G$ be the comparability graph of a finite poset. If $\mathrm{cl}(G)$ is the clutter of maximal cliques of $G$, we prove that $\mathrm{cl}(G)$ satisfies the max-flow min-cut property and that its edge ideal is normally torsion free. Then we prove that edge ideals of complete admissible uniform clutters are normally torsion free.

The weighted-edge-coloring problem of an edge-weighted graph whose weights are between 0 and 1, consists in finding a coloring using as few colors as possible and satisfying the following constraints: the sum of weights of edges with the same color and incident to the same vertex must be at most 1. In 1991, Chung and Ross conjectured that if G is bipartite, then [Formula: see text] colors are always sufficient to weighted-edge-color (G,w), where [Formula: see text] is the maximum of the sums of the weights of the edges incident to a vertex. We prove this is true for edge-weighted graphs with multiple edges whose underlying graph is a tree. We further generalise this conjecture to non-bipartite graphs and prove the generalised conjecture for simple edge-weighted outerplanar graphs. Finally, we introduce a list version of this coloring together with the list-bin-packing problem, which allows us to obtain new results concerning the original coloring for a specific class of graphs, namely the k-weight-degenerate weighted graph.

The relation between isoperimetric properties and Laplacian spectra of weighted graphs is investigated. The vertices are classified into k clusters with „few" inter-cluster edges of „small" weights (area) and „similar" cluster sizes (volumes). For k=2 the Cheeger constant represents the minimum requirement for the area/volume ratio and it is estimated from above by v?1(2-?1), where ?1 is the smallest positive eigenvalue of the weighted Laplacian. For k?2 we define the k-density of a weighted graph that is a generalization of the Cheeger constant and estimated from below by Si=1k-1?i and from above by c2 Si=1k-1 ?i, where 0<?1=…=Sk-1 are the smallest Laplacian eigenvalues and the constant c?1 depends on the metric classification properties of the corresponding eigenvectors. Laplacian spectra are also related to canonical correlations in a probabilistic setup.
