Deciding homomorphic images of De Bruijn graphs
The De Bruijn graph $B_n$ of
dimension $n$ (on the two-letter alphabet) is defined as the directed graph on
$2^n$ vertices and $2^{n+1}$ edges, where for every $w = w_0 \dots w_n \in
2^{n+1}$ we put ...

Given any finite relation $R$ what is the cardinality of $\langle R\rangle=\{\underbrace{R\circ R\cdots \circ R}_{n\text{ times}}:n\in\mathbb{N}\}$?
Given any finite relation $R$ if we let $\circ$ denote relation composition and define $R^n=\underbrace{R\circ R\cdots \circ R}_{n\text{ times}}$ then does there exist an explicit formula for the ...

The graph of Rule 110 and vertices degree
Consider the elementary cellular automaton called Rule 110 (famous for being Turing complete):
It induces a map $R: \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}$ such that the binary representation of $R(n)$ is ...

Long term behavior of a certain discrete time dynamical system on graphs
Consider the graph $(V,E)$ with vertex set $V=\{v_1,...,v_n\}$ and edge set $E\subset V\times V$. Further, assume that $\forall v_i\in V, (v_i,v_i)\in E$.
Assume that each vertex has an $\textit{...

Finite graph colorings without symmetries
Let $G$ be a connected finite simple graph with vertex set $V$, $F$ a finite set and let $\Delta(G)$ denote the degree of $G$, i.e. $\Delta(G)= \max_{v\in V} \deg(v)$. We say that a coloring $\phi\...

Blinking graphs
For any simple graph $G$, assign its nodes a weight/bit of $0$ or $1$.
Call this a bit assignment for $G$.
Now, generate a new bit assignment as follows:
Each node $x$'s bit is replaced by $1$ if the ...

Unique Nash equilibrium games
Multicast network design game is a special case of a general network design game (http://www.cs.cornell.edu/home/kleinber/focs04-game.pdf) in which there is a target vertex $t$ and $n$ rational ...
