A graphical design is a subset of vertices of a graph, along with a weight for each chosen vertex, that can perfectly average chosen subspaces of functions on the graph. A design is uniformly weighted if all the weights are equal, and several well-known combinatorial objects such as orthogonal arrays, combinatorial block designs and t-wise permutations are uniformly weighted graphical designs. While one might expect to see uniformly weighted designs in structured graphs, they do not always exist. In this paper we characterize the existence of uniformly weighted graphical designs, and use our result to provide several families of graphs that have, and do not have, such designs. Our results offer a polyhedral view of the structures that control the existence and cardinalities of these designs. In particular, we characterize all uniformly weighted designs of threshold graphs, and provide a geometric proof of the duality of linear codes and linear orthogonal arrays. We also provide a novel construction for graphs whose Laplacian characteristic polynomials are almost irreducible, to produce families without uniformly weighted designs.
This work compares ball-and weighted graphs and gives a complete comparison in the one-dimensional case, and shows that the minimal dimension for ball graphs can at most be one larger than the minimal dimension for weighted graphs (weighted dimension), but also that the weighted dimension can exceed the ball dimension...
The singular difference graph, denoted by $\Gamma$, of the vector space of square matrices over a field is a graph whose vertex set is the set of all elements of the vector space, where two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if the difference of the corresponding matrices is singular. In this paper, we investig...
The main theorem gives the asymptotic sampling distribution and enumeration formulae for configurations, and accommodates forbidden edges, and enables the sampling of edge-colored graphs with prescribed degree sequences for each color class by constructing the colored subgraphs one at a time.

All the eigenvalues of an integral graphs are integers. Integral graphs are extremely rare. They form an asymptotically vanishing fraction $2^{-\Omega(n)}$ among all graphs on $n$ vertices. It makes the construction of a new family of integral graphs a challenging task. Also, most of the known infinite family of integr...

An edge weighting of a graph induces a coloring of its vertices in which the color of a vertex is the total weight of the edges incident with it. Such an edge weighting is proper if adjacent vertices always receive distinct colors. Deciding whether a graph admits a proper weighting is known to be NP-complete for the we...
In this paper, we construct a class of infinite graphs, called substitution graphs. The vertex set consists of all finite words over a finite alphabet. A directed graph is formed by adding vertical edges connecting each word to its children and horizontal edges defined recursively by two finite directed graphs G and J:...
