Reeb graphs are structural descriptors that capture shape properties of a topological space from the perspective of a chosen function. In this work we define a combinatorial metric for Reeb graphs of orientable surfaces in terms of the cost necessary to transform one graph into another by edit operations. The main contributions of this paper are the stability property and the optimality of this edit distance. More precisely, the stability result states that changes in the functions, measured by the maximum norm, imply not greater changes in the corresponding Reeb graphs, measured by the edit distance. The optimality result states that our edit distance discriminates Reeb graphs better than any other metric for Reeb graphs of surfaces satisfying the stability property.

The edit distance function of a hereditary property $mathscr{H}$ is the asymptotically largest edit distance between a graph of density $pin[0,1]$ and $mathscr{H}$. Denote by $P_n$ and $C_n$ the path graph of order $n$ and the cycle graph of order $n
$, respectively. Let $C_{2n}^*$ be the cycle graph $C_{2n}$ with a diagonal, and $widetilde{C_n}$ be the graph with vertex set ${v_0, v_1, ldots, v_{n-1}}$ and $E(widetilde{C_n})=E(C_n)cup {v_0v_2}$. Marchant and Thomason determined the edit distance function of $C_6^{*}$. Peck studied the edit distance function of $C_n$, while Berikkyzy et al. studied the edit distance of powers of cycles. In this paper, by using the methods of Peck and Martin, we determine the edit distance function of $C_8^{*}$, $widetilde{C_n}$ and $P_n$, respectively.
In this paper, we introduce an extension of smoothing on Reeb graphs, which we call truncated smoothing; this in turn allows us to define a new family of metrics which generalize the interleaving distance for Reeb graphs. Intuitively, we chop off par
ts near local minima and maxima during the course of smoothing, where the amount cut is controlled by a parameter $tau$. After formalizing truncation as a functor, we show that when applied after the smoothing functor, this prevents extensive expansion of the range of the function, and yields particularly nice properties (such as maintaining connectivity) when combined with smoothing for $0 leq tau leq 2varepsilon$, where $varepsilon$ is the smoothing parameter. Then, for the restriction of $tau in [0,varepsilon]$, we have additional structure which we can take advantage of to construct a categorical flow for any choice of slope $m in [0,1]$. Using the infrastructure built for a category with a flow, this then gives an interleaving distance for every $m in [0,1]$, which is a generalization of the original interleaving distance, which is the case $m=0$. While the resulting metrics are not stable, we show that any pair of these for $m,m in [0,1)$ are strongly equivalent metrics, which in turn gives stability of each metric up to a multiplicative constant. We conclude by discussing implications of this metric within the broader family of metrics for Reeb graphs.
Reeb graphs are widely used in a range of fields for the purposes of analyzing and comparing complex spaces via a simpler combinatorial object. Further, they are closely related to extended persistence diagrams, which largely but not completely encod
e the information of the Reeb graph. In this paper, we investigate the effect on the persistence diagram of a particular continuous operation on Reeb graphs; namely the (truncated) smoothing operation. This construction arises in the context of the Reeb graph interleaving distance, but separately from that viewpoint provides a simplification of the Reeb graph which continuously shrinks small loops. We then use this characterization to initiate the study of inverse problems for Reeb graphs using smoothing by showing which paths in persistence diagram space (commonly known as vineyards) can be realized by a path in the space of Reeb graphs via these simple operations. This allows us to solve the inverse problem on a certain family of piecewise linear vineyards when fixing an initial Reeb graph.
We study whether a given graph can be realized as an adjacency graph of the polygonal cells of a polyhedral surface in $mathbb{R}^3$. We show that every graph is realizable as a polyhedral surface with arbitrary polygonal cells, and that this is not
true if we require the cells to be convex. In particular, if the given graph contains $K_5$, $K_{5,81}$, or any nonplanar $3$-tree as a subgraph, no such realization exists. On the other hand, all planar graphs, $K_{4,4}$, and $K_{3,5}$ can be realized with convex cells. The same holds for any subdivision of any graph where each edge is subdivided at least once, and, by a result from McMullen et al. (1983), for any hypercube. Our results have implications on the maximum density of graphs describing polyhedral surfaces with convex cells: The realizability of hypercubes shows that the maximum number of edges over all realizable $n$-vertex graphs is in $Omega(n log n)$. From the non-realizability of $K_{5,81}$, we obtain that any realizable $n$-vertex graph has $O(n^{9/5})$ edges. As such, these graphs can be considerably denser than planar graphs, but not arbitrarily dense.
Barnette identified two interesting classes of cubic polyhedral graphs for which he conjectured the existence of a Hamiltonian cycle. Goodey proved the conjecture for the intersection of the two classes. We examine these classes from the point of vie
w of distance-two colorings. A distance-two $r$-coloring of a graph $G$ is an assignment of $r$ colors to the vertices of $G$ so that any two vertices at distance at most two have different colors. Note that a cubic graph needs at least four colors. The distance-two four-coloring problem for cubic planar graphs is known to be NP-complete. We claim the problem remains NP-complete for tri-connected bipartite cubic planar graphs, which we call type-one Barnette graphs, since they are the first class identified by Barnette. By contrast, we claim the problem is polynomial for cubic plane graphs with face sizes $3, 4, 5,$ or $6$, which we call type-two Barnette graphs, because of their relation to Barnettes second conjecture. We call Goodey graphs those type-two Barnette graphs all of whose faces have size $4$ or $6$. We fully describe all Goodey graphs that admit a distance-two four-coloring, and characterize the remaining type-two Barnette graphs that admit a distance-two four-coloring according to their face size. For quartic plane graphs, the analogue of type-two Barnette graphs are graphs with face sizes $3$ or $4$. For this class, the distance-two four-coloring problem is also polynomial; in fact, we can again fully describe all colorable instances -- there are exactly two such graphs.
