Journal ArticleDOI
Complete multipartite graphs and Braess edges
Yuxiang Hu,Steve Kirkland +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the circumstances under which inserting an edge between the twins of a connected graph increases Kemeny's constant, and showed that adding any edge between two vertices will increase the transit efficiency of the corresponding Markov chain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Column sums and the conditioning of the stationary distribution for a stochastic matrix
TL;DR: For an irreducible stochastic matrix T, the sensitivity of the stationary distribution to perturbations in T was studied in this article, where column sum vectors for T provided information on T.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A Network Configuration Algorithm Based on Optimization of Kirchhoff Index
TL;DR: This paper proposes the Kirchhoff index (KI) of a certain weighted graph related to the interconnection network as a proxy for its communication throughput and shows how mathematical techniques for reducing KI can be used to configure a network in a dramatically shorter time as compared to the current state of the art scheme.
Journal ArticleDOI
On multipartite tournament matrices with constant team size
Steve Kirkland,Bryan L. Shader +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the spectral properties of the class T d,l, of (0, 1)-matrices M which satisfy where Jk denotes the all ones matrix, and lk the identify matrix, of order k, were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Totally nonnegative (0,1)-matrices
TL;DR: In this paper, the maximum number of 0 s in an irreducible, totally nonnegative ( 0, 1 ) -matrix of order n is ( n - 1 ) 2 and the minimum Perron value of such matrices is 2 + 2 cos 2 π n + 2.
