Graph Varieties Axiomatized by Semimedial, Medial, and Some Other Groupoid Identities
Discussiones Mathematicae General Algebra and Applications 40 (2020) 143–157 doi:10.7151/dmgaa.1344 GRAPH VARIETIES AXIOMATIZED BY SEMIMEDIAL, MEDIAL, AND SOME OTHER GROUPOID IDENTITIES Erkko Lehtonen Technische Universit¨at Dresden Institut f¨ur Algebra 01062 Dresden, Germany e-mail: [email protected] and Chaowat Manyuen Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Science Khon Kaen University Khon Kaen 40002, Thailand e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Directed graphs without multiple edges can be represented as algebras of type (2, 0), so-called graph algebras. A graph is said to satisfy an identity if the corresponding graph algebra does, and the set of all graphs satisfying a set of identities is called a graph variety. We describe the graph varieties axiomatized by certain groupoid identities (medial, semimedial, autodis- tributive, commutative, idempotent, unipotent, zeropotent, alternative). Keywords: graph algebra, groupoid, identities, semimediality, mediality. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 05C25, 03C05. 1. Introduction Graph algebras were introduced by Shallon [10] in 1979 with the purpose of providing examples of nonfinitely based finite algebras. Let us briefly recall this concept. Given a directed graph G = (V, E) without multiple edges, the graph algebra associated with G is the algebra A(G) = (V ∪ {∞}, ◦, ∞) of type (2, 0), 144 E. Lehtonen and C. Manyuen where ∞ is an element not belonging to V and the binary operation ◦ is defined by the rule u, if (u, v) ∈ E, u ◦ v := (∞, otherwise, for all u, v ∈ V ∪ {∞}. We will denote the product u ◦ v simply by juxtaposition uv. Using this representation, we may view any algebraic property of a graph algebra as a property of the graph with which it is associated. -

Graph Theory
1 Graph Theory “Begin at the beginning,” the King said, gravely, “and go on till you come to the end; then stop.” — Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland The Pregolya River passes through a city once known as K¨onigsberg. In the 1700s seven bridges were situated across this river in a manner similar to what you see in Figure 1.1. The city’s residents enjoyed strolling on these bridges, but, as hard as they tried, no residentof the city was ever able to walk a route that crossed each of these bridges exactly once. The Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler learned of this frustrating phenomenon, and in 1736 he wrote an article [98] about it. His work on the “K¨onigsberg Bridge Problem” is considered by many to be the beginning of the field of graph theory. FIGURE 1.1. The bridges in K¨onigsberg. J.M. Harris et al., Combinatorics and Graph Theory , DOI: 10.1007/978-0-387-79711-3 1, °c Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2008 2 1. Graph Theory At first, the usefulness of Euler’s ideas and of “graph theory” itself was found only in solving puzzles and in analyzing games and other recreations. In the mid 1800s, however, people began to realize that graphs could be used to model many things that were of interest in society. For instance, the “Four Color Map Conjec- ture,” introduced by DeMorgan in 1852, was a famous problem that was seem- ingly unrelated to graph theory. The conjecture stated that four is the maximum number of colors required to color any map where bordering regions are colored differently. -

Jim Lewis, Advisor July 2008 2 Archimedean Solids A polygon is a simple, closed, planar figure with sides formed by joining line segments, where each line segment intersects exactly two others. If all of the sides have the same length and all of the angles are congruent, the polygon is called regular. The sum of the angles of a regular polygon with n sides, where n is 3 or more, is 180° x (n – 2) degrees. If a regular polygon were connected with other regular polygons in three dimensional space, a polyhedron could be created. In geometry, a polyhedron is a three- dimensional solid which consists of a collection of polygons joined at their edges. The word polyhedron is derived from the Greek word poly (many) and the Indo-European term hedron (seat). -

A Gentle Introduction to Deep Learning for Graphs
A Gentle Introduction to Deep Learning for Graphs Davide Bacciua, Federico Erricaa, Alessio Michelia, Marco Poddaa aDepartment of Computer Science, University of Pisa, Italy. Abstract The adaptive processing of graph data is a long-standing research topic that has been lately consolidated as a theme of major interest in the deep learning community. The snap increase in the amount and breadth of related research has come at the price of little systematization of knowledge and attention to earlier literature. This work is a tutorial introduction to the field of deep learn- ing for graphs. It favors a consistent and progressive presentation of the main concepts and architectural aspects over an exposition of the most recent liter- ature, for which the reader is referred to available surveys. The paper takes a top-down view of the problem, introducing a generalized formulation of graph representation learning based on a local and iterative approach to structured in- formation processing. Moreover, it introduces the basic building blocks that can be combined to design novel and effective neural models for graphs. We com- plement the methodological exposition with a discussion of interesting research challenges and applications in the field. Keywords: deep learning for graphs, graph neural networks, learning for structured data arXiv:1912.12693v2 [cs.LG] 15 Jun 2020 1. Introduction Graphs are a powerful tool to represent data that is produced by a variety of artificial and natural processes. A graph has a compositional nature, being a compound of atomic information pieces, and a relational nature, as the links defining its structure denote relationships between the linked entities. -

1 Bipartite Matching and Vertex Covers
ORF 523 Lecture 6 Princeton University Instructor: A.A. Ahmadi Scribe: G. Hall Any typos should be emailed to a a [email protected]. In this lecture, we will cover an application of LP strong duality to combinatorial optimiza- tion: • Bipartite matching • Vertex covers • K¨onig'stheorem • Totally unimodular matrices and integral polytopes. 1 Bipartite matching and vertex covers Recall that a bipartite graph G = (V; E) is a graph whose vertices can be divided into two disjoint sets such that every edge connects one node in one set to a node in the other. Definition 1 (Matching, vertex cover). A matching is a disjoint subset of edges, i.e., a subset of edges that do not share a common vertex. A vertex cover is a subset of the nodes that together touch all the edges. (a) An example of a bipartite (b) An example of a matching (c) An example of a vertex graph (dotted lines) cover (grey nodes) Figure 1: Bipartite graphs, matchings, and vertex covers 1 Lemma 1. The cardinality of any matching is less than or equal to the cardinality of any vertex cover. This is easy to see: consider any matching. Any vertex cover must have nodes that at least touch the edges in the matching. Moreover, a single node can at most cover one edge in the matching because the edges are disjoint. As it will become clear shortly, this property can also be seen as an immediate consequence of weak duality in linear programming. Theorem 1 (K¨onig). If G is bipartite, the cardinality of the maximum matching is equal to the cardinality of the minimum vertex cover. -
An Enduring Error
Version June 5, 2008 Branko Grünbaum: An enduring error 1. Introduction. Mathematical truths are immutable, but mathematicians do make errors, especially when carrying out non-trivial enumerations. Some of the errors are "innocent" –– plain mis- takes that get corrected as soon as an independent enumeration is carried out. For example, Daublebsky [14] in 1895 found that there are precisely 228 types of configurations (123), that is, collections of 12 lines and 12 points, each incident with three of the others. In fact, as found by Gropp [19] in 1990, the correct number is 229. Another example is provided by the enumeration of the uniform tilings of the 3-dimensional space by Andreini [1] in 1905; he claimed that there are precisely 25 types. However, as shown [20] in 1994, the correct num- ber is 28. Andreini listed some tilings that should not have been included, and missed several others –– but again, these are simple errors easily corrected. Much more insidious are errors that arise by replacing enumeration of one kind of ob- ject by enumeration of some other objects –– only to disregard the logical and mathematical distinctions between the two enumerations. It is surprising how errors of this type escape detection for a long time, even though there is frequent mention of the results. One example is provided by the enumeration of 4-dimensional simple polytopes with 8 facets, by Brückner [7] in 1909. He replaces this enumeration by that of 3-dimensional "diagrams" that he inter- preted as Schlegel diagrams of convex 4-polytopes, and claimed that the enumeration of these objects is equivalent to that of the polytopes.
