Cocommutative Hopf Algebras of Permutations and Trees

Consider the coradical filtrations of the Hopf algebras of planar binary trees of Loday and Ronco and of permutations of Malvenuto and Reutenauer. We give explicit isomorphisms showing that the associated graded Hopf algebras are dual to the cocommutative Hopf algebras introduced in the late 1980's by Grossman and Larson. These Hopf algebras are constructed from ordered trees and heap-ordered trees, respectively. These results follow from the fact that whenever one starts from a Hopf algebra that is a cofree graded coalgebra, the associated graded Hopf algebra is a shuffle Hopf algebra.

A compact hash function for paths in PERT networks

This paper presents a method of identifying all directed paths from the source to the sink (called ‘paths’ in this paper) in a directed acyclic network with one source and one sink. Let L be the set of all the paths in this network and N = |L|. A hash function H:L → {0, 1, …, N ? 1} is constructed having the following properties: it is one-to-one and onto, the algorithms to compute H and its inverse are linea in the number of arcs in the network, it has the smallest possible range and produces no collisions. All these properties make it a very useful hash function in writing computer programs which involve storing information about all paths in the network. The techniques described in this paper can be used to construct hash functions for walks in cyclic graphs. An application to simulation of stochastic networks is described and an illustrative example is included.     

Queue layouts of iterated line directed graphs

In this paper, we study queue layouts of iterated line directed graphs. A k-queue layout of a directed graph consists of a linear ordering of the vertices and an assignment of each arc to exactly one of the k queues so that any two arcs assigned to the same queue do not nest. The queuenumber of a directed graph is the minimum number of queues required for a queue layout of the directed graph.We present upper and lower bounds on the queuenumber of an iterated line directed graph L^k(G) of a directed graph G. Our upper bound depends only on G and is independent of the number of iterations k. Queue layouts can be applied to three-dimensional drawings. From the results on the queuenumber of L^k(G), it is shown that for any fixed directed graph G, L^k(G) has a three-dimensional drawing with O(n) volume, where n is the number of vertices in L^k(G). These results are also applied to specific families of iterated line directed graphs such as de Bruijn, Kautz, butterfly, and wrapped butterfly directed graphs. In particular, the queuenumber of k-ary butterfly directed graphs is determined if k is odd.

An Algebraic Presentation of Term Graphs, via GS-Monoidal Categories

We present a categorical characterization of term graphs (i.e., finite, directed acyclic graphs labeled over a signature) that parallels the well-known characterization of terms as arrows of the algebraic theory of a given signature (i.e., the free Cartesian category generated by it). In particular, we show that term graphs over a signature are one-to-one with the arrows of the free gs-monoidal category generated by . Such a category satisfies all the axioms for Cartesian categories but for the naturality of two transformations (the discharger ! and the duplicator ), providing in this way an abstract and clear relationship between terms and term graphs. In particular, the absence of the naturality of and ! has a precise interpretation in terms of explicit sharing and of loss of implicit garbage collection, respectively.     

Unique Solvability of Certain Hybrid Networks from Their Distances

Phylogenetic relationships among taxa have usually been represented by rooted trees in which the leaves correspond to extant taxa and interior vertices correspond to extinct ancestral taxa. Recently, more general graphs than trees have been investigated in order to be able to represent hybridization, lateral gene transfer, and recombination events. A model is presented in which the genome at a vertex is represented by a binary string. In the presence of hybridization and the absence of convergent evolution and homoplasies, the evolution is modeled by an acyclic digraph. It is shown how distances are most naturally related to the vertices rather than to the edges. Indeed, distances are computed in terms of the “originating weights” at vertices. It is shown that some distances may not in fact correspond to the sum of branch lengths on any path in the graph. In typical applications, direct measurements can be made only on the leaves, including the root. A study is made of how to infer the originating weights at interior vertices from such information.

On minimum congestion routing in rearrangeable multihop lightwave networks

In this article we consider the problem of minimizing the congestion in logically rearrangeable multihop lightwave networks. Namely, we consider a network in which each node is equipped with a small number of transmitters and receivers, and tuning a transmitter at nodei and a receiver at nodej to the same wavelength creates a logical link (i, j) through which traffic could be sent. For a given traffic matrix-the matrix of flows between nodes—the objective is to find the best connectivity diagram and the corresponding flow assignment so that the maximal flow on any link is minimized. We develop a tabu search heuristic that yields a suboptimal connectivity diagram and an optimal flow assignment on it. Computational experiments are conducted on some benchmark data sets, on a real-world traffic matrix, and on some randomly generated problems of larger dimension. The results are compared with known results from the literature and with a known greedy approach. The results suggest that a tabu search—based heuristic is a promising approach for handling this NP-hard combinatorial problem. In addition, we discuss the performance of the method in view of different patterns of input data.     

冠状系统的R-旋转图与(R)-旋转图

冠状系统Hc的R(R)-旋转变换是指对Hc的一个完美匹配M,同时将Hc中所有正常(非正常)M-交错的六边形变换为非正常(正常)M-交错的六边形,从而得到Hc的另一个完美匹配的变换.通过这两种旋转变换可分别建立Hc完美匹配集上的层次结构,分别称为R-旋转图和R-旋转图,记为R(Hc)和R(Hc).已经证明知道R(Hc)是有向森林,其每个分支都为有向根树.首先讨论了冠状系统的Z-变换有向图与其R-旋转图之间的关系,指出按连通分支对这两种图的顶点集进行划分,其结果一样.在此基础上,证明了R(Hc)的任一分支T(有向根树)都对应R(Hc)的一个分支T,且两者的顶点集相同,进而证明了T与(T)具有相同的高度和宽度.     

Optimal location of interconnected facilities on tree networks subject to distance constraints

Optimal location of interconnected facilities on tree networks is considered in the case when some of the nodes of the network contain existing facilities. The distances between the facilities must satisfy maximum constraints. Polynomial algorithms for the solution of this problem are proposed.     

The Stochastic Location-Assignment Problem on a Tree

In the assignment problem units of supply are assigned on a one-to-one basis to units of demand so as to minimize the sum of the cost associated with each supply-to-demand matched pair. Defined on a network, the supplies and demands are located at vertices and the cost of a supply-to-demand matched pair is the distance between them. This paper considers a two-stage stochastic program for locating the units of supply based upon only a probabilistic characterization of demand. The objective of the first-stage location problem is to minimize the expected cost of the second-stage assignment problem. Principal results include showing that the problem is NP-hard on a general network, has a simple solution procedure on a line network, and is solvable by a low order polynomial greedy procedure on a tree network. Potential applications are discussed.     

Bicriterion shortest hyperpaths in random time-dependent networks

In relevant application areas, such as transportation and telecommunications,there has recently been a growing focus on random time-dependentnetworks (RTDNs), where arc lengths are represented by time-dependentdiscrete random variables. In such networks, an optimal routingpolicy does not necessarily correspond to a path, but ratherto an adaptive strategy. Finding an optimal strategy reducesto a shortest hyperpath problem that can be solved quite efficiently. The bicriterion shortest path problem, i.e. the problem offinding the set of efficient paths, has been extensively studiedfor many years. Recently, extensions to RTDNs have been investigated.However, no attempt has been made to study bicriterion strategies.This is the aim of this paper. Here we model bicriterion strategy problems in terms of bicriterionshortest hyperpaths, and we devise an algorithm for enumeratingthe set of efficient hyperpaths. Since the computational effortrequired for a complete enumeration may be prohibitive, we proposesome heuristic methods to generate a subset of the efficientsolutions. Different criteria are considered, such as expectedor maximum travel time or cost; a computational experience isreported.
