In this work we introduce a concept of complexity for undirected graphs in terms of the spectral analysis of the Laplacian operator defined by the incidence matrix of the graph. Precisely, we compute the norm of the vector of eigenvalues of both the graph and its complement and take their product. Doing so, we obtain a quantity that satisfies two basic properties that are the expected for a measure of complexity. First,complexity of fully connected and fully disconnected graphs vanish. Second, complexity of complementary graphs coincide. This notion of complexity allows us to distinguish different kinds of graphs by placing them in a croissant-shaped region of the plane link density - complexity, highlighting some features like connectivity,concentration, uniformity or regularity and existence of clique-like clusters. Indeed, considering graphs with a fixed number of nodes, by plotting the link density versus the complexity we find that graphs generated by different methods take place at different regions of the plane. We consider some generated graphs, in particular the Erdos-Renyi, the Watts-Strogatz and the Barabasi-Albert models. Also, we place some particular, let us say deterministic, to wit, lattices, stars, hyper-concentrated and cliques-containing graphs. It is worthy noticing that these deterministic classical models of graphs depict the boundary of the croissant-shaped region. Finally, as an application to graphs generated by real measurements, we consider the brain connectivity graphs from two epileptic patients obtained from magnetoencephalography (MEG) recording, both in a baseline period and in ictal periods .In this case, our definition of complexity could be used as a tool for discerning between states, by the analysis of differences at distinct frequencies of the MEG recording.

Based on the notion of maximal correlation, Kimeldorf, May and Sampson (1980) introduce a measure of correlation between two random variables, called the concordant monotone correlation (CMC). We revisit, generalize and prove new properties of this m
easure of correlation. It is shown that CMC captures various types of correlation detected in measures of rank correlation like the Kendall tau correlation. We show that the CMC satisfies the data processing and tensorization properties (that make ordinary maximal correlation applicable to problems in information theory). Furthermore, CMC is shown to be intimately related to the FKG inequality. Furthermore, a combinatorical application of CMC is given for which we do not know of another method to derive its result. Finally, we study the problem of the complexity of the computation of the CMC, which is a non-convex optimization problem with local maximas. We give a simple but exponential-time algorithm that is guaranteed to output the exact value of the generalized CMC.
Motivated by the analogy between successive interference cancellation and iterative belief-propagation on erasure channels, irregular repetition slotted ALOHA (IRSA) strategies have received a lot of attention in the design of medium access control p
rotocols. The IRSA schemes have been mostly analyzed for theoretical scenarios for homogenous sources, where they are shown to substantially improve the system performance compared to classical slotted ALOHA protocols. In this work, we consider generic systems where sources in different importance classes compete for a common channel. We propose a new prioritized IRSA algorithm and derive the probability to correctly resolve collisions for data from each source class. We then make use of our theoretical analysis to formulate a new optimization problem for selecting the transmission strategies of heterogenous sources. We optimize both the replication probability per class and the source rate per class, in such a way that the overall system utility is maximized. We then propose a heuristic-based algorithm for the selection of the transmission strategy, which is built on intrinsic characteristics of the iterative decoding methods adopted for recovering from collisions. Experimental results validate the accuracy of the theoretical study and show the gain of well-chosen prioritized transmission strategies for transmission of data from heterogenous classes over shared wireless channels.
Private information retrieval has been reformulated in an information-theoretic perspective in recent years. The two most important parameters considered for a PIR scheme in a distributed storage system are the storage overhead and PIR rate. The comp
lexity of the computations done by the servers for the various tasks of the distributed storage system is an important parameter in such systems which didnt get enough attention in PIR schemes. As a consequence, we take into consideration a third parameter, the access complexity of a PIR scheme, which characterizes the total amount of data to be accessed by the servers for responding to the queries throughout a PIR scheme. We use a general covering codes approach as the main tool for improving the access complexity. With a given amount of storage overhead, the ultimate objective is to characterize the tradeoff between the rate and access complexity of a PIR scheme. This covering codes approach raises a new interesting coding problem of generalized coverings similarly to the well-known generalized Hamming weights.
In this paper, we redefine the Graph Fourier Transform (GFT) under the DSP$_mathrm{G}$ framework. We consider the Jordan eigenvectors of the directed Laplacian as graph harmonics and the corresponding eigenvalues as the graph frequencies. For this pu
rpose, we propose a shift operator based on the directed Laplacian of a graph. Based on our shift operator, we then define total variation of graph signals, which is used in frequency ordering. We achieve natural frequency ordering and interpretation via the proposed definition of GFT. Moreover, we show that our proposed shift operator makes the LSI filters under DSP$_mathrm{G}$ to become polynomial in the directed Laplacian.
The performance of mobile edge computing (MEC) depends critically on the quality of the wireless channels. From this viewpoint, the recently advocated intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) technique that can proactively reconfigure wireless channels i
s anticipated to bring unprecedented performance gain to MEC. In this paper, the problem of network throughput optimization of an IRS-assisted multi-hop MEC network is investigated, in which the phase-shifts of the IRS and the resource allocation of the relays need to be jointly optimized. However, due to the coupling among the transmission links of different hops caused by the utilization of the IRS and the complicated multi-hop network topology, it is difficult to solve the considered problem by directly applying existing optimization techniques. Fortunately, by exploiting the underlying structure of the network topology and spectral graph theory, it is shown that the network throughput can be well approximated by the second smallest eigenvalue of the network Laplacian matrix. This key finding allows us to develop an effective iterative algorithm for solving the considered problem. Numerical simulations are performed to corroborate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
