If G is a graph and P is a partition of V(G), then the partition distance of G is the sum of the distances between all pairs of vertices that lie in the same part of P. A colored distance is the dual concept of the partition distance. These notions are motivated by a problem in the facility location network and applied to several well-known distance-based graph invariants. In this paper, we apply an extended cut method to induce the partition and color distances to some subsets of vertices which are not necessary a partition of V(G). Then, we define a two-dimensional weighted graph and an operator to prove that the induced partition and colored distances of a graph can be obtained from the weighted Wiener index of a two-dimensional weighted quotient graph induced by the transitive closure of the Djoković–Winkler relation as well as by any partition that is coarser. Finally, we utilize our main results to find some upper bounds for the modified Wiener index and the number of orbits of partial cube graphs under the action of automorphism group of graphs.

We give an algorithm for the Dynamic Transitive Closure Problem for planar directed acyclic graphs with one source and one sink. The graph can be updated in logarithmic time under arbitrary edge insertions and deletions that preserve the embedding. Queries of the form `is there a directed path from u to v ?' for arbitrary vertices u and v can be answered in logarithmic time. The size of the data structure and the initialisation time are linear in the number of edges.<br /> <br />The result enlarges the class of graphs for which a logarithmic (or even polylogarithmic) time dynamic transitive closure algorithm exists. Previously, the only algorithms within the stated resource bounds put restrictions on the topology of the graph or on the delete operation. To obtain our result, we use a new characterisation of the transitive closure in plane graphs with one source and one sink and introduce new techniques to exploit this characterisation.<br /> <br />We also give a lower bound of Omega(log n/log log n) on the amortised complexity of the problem in the cell probe model with logarithmic word size. This is the first dynamic directed graph problem with almost matching lower and upper bounds.

AbstractThe dyadic effect is a phenomenon that occurs when the number of links between nodes sharing a common feature is larger than expected if the features are distributed randomly on the network. In this article, we consider the case when nodes are distinguished by a binary characteristic. Under these circumstances, two independent parameters, namely dyadicity and heterophilicity are able to detect the presence of the dyadic effect and to measure how much the considered characteristic affects the network topology. The distribution of nodes characteristics can be investigated within a two-dimensional space that represents the feasible region of the dyadic effect, which is bound by two upper bounds on dyadicity and heterophilicity. Using some network structural arguments, we are able to improve such upper bounds and introduce two new lower bounds, providing a reduction of the feasible region of the dyadic effect as well as constraining dyadicity and heterophilicity within a specific range. Some computational experiences show the bounds effectiveness and their usefulness with regards to different classes of networks.

Several nonclosure properties of each class of sets accepted by two-dimensional alternating one-marker automata, alternating one-marker automata with only universal states, nondeterministic one-marker automata, deterministic one-marker automata, alternating finite automata, and alternating finite automata with only universal states are shown. To do this, we first establish the upper bounds of the working space used by "three-way" alternating Turing machines with only universal states to simulate those "four-way" non-storage machines. These bounds provide us a simplified and unified proof method for the whole variants of one-marker and/or alternating finite state machine, without directly analyzing the complex behavior of the individual four-way machine on two-dimensional rectangular input tapes. We also summarize the known closure properties including Boolean closures for all the variants of two-dimensional alternating one-marker automata.

Topological indices are numerical parameters of a graph that characterize its topology and are usually graph invariant. There are certain types of topological indices such as degree-based topological indices, distance-based topological indices, and counting-related topological indices. These topological indices correlate certain physicochemical properties such as boiling point, stability, and strain energy of chemical compounds. In this paper, we compute an exact expression of Wiener index, vertex-Szeged index, edge-Szeged index, and total-Szeged index of single-walled titania nanotubes TiO2(m, n) by using the cut method for all values of m and n.
