Computer assisted discovery: Zero forcing vs vertex cover

Boris Brimkov, Randy Davila, Houston Schuerger +1

In this paper, we showcase the process of using an automated conjecturing program called \emph{TxGraffiti} written and maintained by the second author. We begin by proving a conjec…

Minimal Zero Forcing Sets

Boris Brimkov, Joshua Carlson

In this paper, we study minimal (with respect to inclusion) zero forcing sets. We first investigate when a graph can have polynomially or exponentially many distinct minimal zero f…

An exact algorithm for the minimum rank of a graph

Boris Brimkov, Zachary Scherr

The minimum rank of a graph G is the minimum rank over all real symmetric matrices whose off-diagonal sparsity pattern is the same as that of the adjacency matrix of G. In this not…

Optimizing the trade-off between number of cops and capture time in Cops and Robbers

Anthony Bonato, Jane Breen, Boris Brimkov +6

The cop throttling number of a graph for the game of Cops and Robbers is the minimum of , where is the number of cops and is the minimu…

Graphs that are cospectral for the distance Laplacian

Boris Brimkov, Ken Duna, Leslie Hogben +4

The distance matrix of a graph is the matrix containing the pairwise distances between vertices, and the distance Laplacian matrix is $\mathcal{D}^L(G)=T(G)-\m…

On the status sequences of trees

Aida Abiad, Boris Brimkov, Alexander Grigoriev

The status of a vertex in a connected graph is the sum of the distances from to all other vertices. The status sequence of a connected graph is the list of the statuses of…
