Simplicial complexes are a popular tool used to model higher-order interactions between elements of complex social and biological systems. In this paper, we study some combinatorial aspects of a class of simplicial complexes created by a graph product, which is an extension of the pseudo-fractal scale-free web. We determine explicitly the independence number, the domination number, and the chromatic number. Moreover, we derive closed-form expressions for the number of acyclic orientations, the number of root-connected acyclic orientations, the number of spanning trees, as well as the number of perfect matchings for some particular cases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
