The paper introduces higher-order positional encodings that enrich graph representations by incorporating topological information from lifted incidence structures, without altering existing graph learning backbones. It theoretically shows that these encodings can mix graph Laplacian frequencies beyond what scalar spectral filters achieve, and demonstrates their effectiveness on Graph Transformers for datasets like ZINC and synthetic benchmarks. The approach bridges graph positional encodings and topological deep learning, enabling standard models to exploit higher-order interactions.

The paper introduces Topology-Preserving Adaptive Graph Pooling (TPAGP), a method that partitions graphs into granular balls by combining node features and topology to create multi-granularity representations. TPAGP captures both global and local structural patterns, unlike prior pooling methods that coarsen graphs by removing or clustering nodes. Experiments show TPAGP outperforms existing pooling techniques on benchmark datasets, reducing information loss from fixed-granularity strategies.
The paper demonstrates that high‑quality graph embeddings can be produced without complex models or training by propagating random features through topological structures derived from random walks and anonymous walks. These training‑free embeddings capture node proximity and structural roles, respectively, and perform competitively on node, edge, and graph tasks while often requiring less computation. Combining the two embedding types further improves inference quality for some tasks.
