arXiv:2604. 17324v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Global self-attention drives modern graph transformers, yet the softmax at its core imposes a structural constraint rarely examined directly: every attention row is non-negative and sums to one, so each per-head output is a mass-conserving convex combination of value vectors.

arXiv:2602. 01553v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Link prediction is a core challenge in graph machine learning, demanding models that capture rich and complex topological dependencies.

arXiv:2607. 17272v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Node representation learning has advanced rapidly, yet most existing methods rely on per-dataset training and hyperparameter tuning.

arXiv:2502. 16533v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Graph Transformers (GTs) have demonstrated a strong capability in modeling graph structures by addressing the intrinsic limitations of graph neural networks (GNNs), such as over-smoothing and over-squashing.

arXiv:2608. 04381v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-supervised learning on graphs is largely shaped by contrastive methods that depend on carefully designed augmentations, and by generative methods that reconstruct node attributes in the input space.

arXiv:2607. 17570v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graph foundation models (GFMs) with global attention are increasingly used to represent mixed-integer linear programs (MILPs), aiming to capture structure beyond the locality of standard graph neural networks.
