Abstract

Graph theory has been developed in regard to its applications in travel, biology, energetics, and many other fields. The general optimization mindset dominating these researches has addressed to graph theory the questions which were often related to finding a shortest path between nodes, as being of the minimum time delay for information transmission and of the minimum cost for connection maintenance. Not surprisingly, the very definition of distance between two vertices in a graph is given as the geodesic distance, i.e., the shortest path connecting them. With respect to the graph metric, a complex network of weighted edges is rather considered as a minimum weight spanning tree of the underlying graph, i.e., a subset of paths that has no cycles but still connects to every vertices at the lowest total cost. However, in many problems of practical interest found in biology, sociology, and economics, the existence of many paths of different lengths as well as a nexus of cycles traversing the nodes in complex interaction graphs do matter.
