On the relationship between graph isomorphism and equivalence in ETL workflow dependency graphs
$\newcommand{\inn}{\mathrm{in}}\newcommand{\out}{\mathrm{out}}$Let $G = (V, E)$ and $G' = (V', E')$ be two DAGs representing dependency graphs of ETL workflows. Each node $v \in V$ (or $v' \in V'$) ...

What are efficient pooling designs for RT-PCR tests?
I realize this is long, but hopefully I think it may be worth the reading for people interested in combinatorics and it might prove important to Covid-19 testing. Slightly reduced in edit.
The ...

How many persons pass your 1.5 meter neighbourhood during 1 week ? If the distribution is power law what is the exponent?
Consider a graph with vertices being people (in some region), and make an edge if one person pass another closer than say 1.5 meter during say one week.
(Such a graph might be thought a kind of ...

Human brains considered as directed graphs
I assume that human brains can be considered as directed graphs with neurons as nodes and synapses as edges. I explicitly don't want to consider the weights, the dynamics of neural activity (based on ...

Relation between diametral path and regularity of a graph
Let $G(V,E)$ be a graph. A path whose length is equal to the diameter of a graph is called a diametral path. In a cycle graph every vertex has $2$ diametral paths. Now I need to prove that this:
If ...

Models for graphs representing real-life networks
I am interested in basic models of graphs (stochastic or deterministic) that are offered for real-life networks (like social networks, the Internet, neuron networks).
I will be thankful for answers ...

Comparing ideals in posets
Consider a partially ordered set $P$, and two upper sets $U_1$, $U_2$ in this poset.
What are some natural ways to measure how equal these two upper sets are?
This question arise naturally in the ...

Visualizing a graph
I have a finite but huge metric graph with say 1000 vertices.
It comes say as 10000x10000 symmetric matrix filled by $0,1,\dots$ and $\infty$;
0's on the diagonal and $\infty$ is for pairs of vertices ...
