3 Directed Graphs and Traces Definition Let E be a directed graph. A function g : E 0! [0, ] is a graph trace if (i) For any regular vertex v E 0, g(v) = X ee,r(e)=v g(s(e)). (ii) For any infinite receiver v E 0 and any finite collection of edges in r (v), we have nx g(v) g(s(e i )). (iii) X i= ve 0 g(v) = Amy Isvik, Nate Kolo, Maria Ross (SUMaR) Graph Traces July 6, 06 3 / 33

5 Definition An extreme graph trace is a graph trace which cannot be written as a convex combination of other graph traces. That is, if g is an extreme graph trace and g = tg 0 +( t)g 00 for graph traces g 0, g 00 and t (0, ), then g 0 = g 00 = g. e f e f e f 0 0 Amy Isvik, Nate Kolo, Maria Ross (SUMaR) Graph Traces July 6, 06 5 / 33

6 Theorem [Johnson] Let E be a finite directed graph with no cycles. Then there exists a bijection between the set of all sources of E, S E, and the set of all extreme traces on E, ext(t (E)). v e f v v Amy Isvik, Nate Kolo, Maria Ross (SUMaR) Graph Traces July 6, 06 6 / 33

7 Box Product v e v v w w e v w w v e e w v e e w v w v w Box Product of Directed Graphs The box (Cartesian) product of E with F is the graph E F =(E 0 F 0, (E F 0 ) [ (E 0 F ), r, s ), where r, s are defined as follows: For all e E, f F, u E 0, v F 0 : r (e, v) =(r E (e), v) r (u, f )=(u, r F (f )) s (e, v) =(s E (e), v) s (u, f )=(u, s F (f )) Amy Isvik, Nate Kolo, Maria Ross (SUMaR) Graph Traces July 6, 06 7 / 33

8 Box Product This product operation does not guarantee that the product of graph traces on factor graphs is a trace on the product graph. Amy Isvik, Nate Kolo, Maria Ross (SUMaR) Graph Traces July 6, 06 8 / 33

9 Tensor Product v e v v w w e v w w e e v w v w Tensor Product of Directed Graphs The tensor product of E with F is the graph E F =(E 0 F 0, E F, r, s ), such that for all (e, f ) E F we define: r (e, f )=(r E (e), r F (f )) and s (e, f )=(s E (e), s F (f )). Amy Isvik, Nate Kolo, Maria Ross (SUMaR) Graph Traces July 6, 06 9 / 33

10 Tensor Product The tensor product of traces on factor graphs gives a trace on the product graph. This is not necessarily the only way to find traces on the product graph. Amy Isvik, Nate Kolo, Maria Ross (SUMaR) Graph Traces July 6, 06 0 / 33

11 Higher-rank graphs Definition A higher-rank graph, ork-graph,(, d), consists of a category and a degree functor d :! N k (i.e. d( )=d( )+d( )) satisfying the factorization property: forany, if d( )=m + n for m, n N k,then there exist unique µ, suchthat = µ and d(µ) = m,d( ) = n. For n N k,let n denote d (n) ={ :d( )=n}. v v v v 3 Amy Isvik, Nate Kolo, Maria Ross (SUMaR) Graph Traces July 6, 06 / 33

12 Definition A k-graph is locally convex if whenever a vertex receives di erent colored edges, the sources of these edges also receive edges of each color other than the one it sends. v v w v v 3 w w Locally Convex Not Locally Convex Amy Isvik, Nate Kolo, Maria Ross (SUMaR) Graph Traces July 6, 06 / 33

13 Definition Let be a (locally convex, row-finite) k-graph, and let 0 be its set of vertices. A function g : 0! [0, ] is called a higher-rank graph trace if (i) for any vertex v 0 and any degree n N k,wehave X v applen g(s( )) = g(v); (ii). X v 0 g(v) = Amy Isvik, Nate Kolo, Maria Ross (SUMaR) Graph Traces July 6, 06 3 / 33

14 g(v )= 6 g(v )= 6 g(v )= 3 g(v 3 )= 3 Amy Isvik, Nate Kolo, Maria Ross (SUMaR) Graph Traces July 6, 06 / 33

15 Definition Let E be a finite graph with no cycles and let v, w E 0.Then,definethe number of finite paths from v as n(v) = { E : s( = v}. Alsodefine the number of paths between v and w as n(v, w) = { E : s( )=v, r( )=w}. Theorem If is a finite locally convex k-graph with no cycles, then there is a one to one correspondence between sources and extreme traces defined by S 3 v 7! g v T ( ) where g v (w) = n(v,w) n(v).

20 Product of Higher Rank Graphs Definition Let be a k-graph and let be an `-graph. The product of and, denoted, is simply the Cartesian product of and, equipped with the following structure: (i) d(, ) =(d( ), d( )) (ii) r(, ) =(r( ), r( )) and likewise for the source map. (iii) (, )( 0, 0 )=( 0, 0 ) whenever both compositions in the factor graphs are defined. Note that with this degree map, the vertex set of isjust 0 0.

Note that these graph traces must also satisfy the relation: t + t + t 3 + t =. Amy Isvik, Nate Kolo, Maria Ross (SUMaR) Graph Traces July 6, 06 / 33

29 Extreme traces on the product graph can be understood using extreme traces on the factor graphs, as shown by these propositions. Proposition If g is a trace on andg is extreme, then g = g g.
