In recent work, the authors developed a simple method of constructing topological spaces from certain well-behaved partially ordered sets -- those coming from sequences of relations between finite sets. This method associates a given poset…
This paper is concerned with structures of general graphs with perfect matchings. We first reveal a partially ordered structure among factor-components of general graphs with perfect matchings. Our second result is a generalization of…
There has been a great deal of attention recently to graphs whose vertex set is a group, defined using the group structure. (The commuting graph, where two elements are joined if they commute, is the oldest and most famous example.) The…
Algorithmicists are well-aware that fast dynamic programming algorithms are very often the correct choice when computing on compositional (or even recursive) graphs. Here we initiate the study of how to generalize this folklore intuition to…
We introduces the umodules, a generalisation of the notion of graph module. The theory we develop captures among others undirected graphs, tournaments, digraphs, and $2-$structures. We show that, under some axioms, a unique decomposition…
An upward planar order on an acyclic directed graph $G$ is a special linear extension of the edge poset of $G$ that satisfies the nesting condition. This order was introduced to combinatorially characterize upward plane graphs and…
We obtain first order linear partial differential equations which are satisfied by exponential generating functions of two variables for the number of connected bipartite graphs with given Betti number. By solving these equations…
We study compositions of a positive integer $n$ in which the occurrence of even parts larger than a fixed threshold $k$ is controlled. More precisely, for each composition $m=(m_1,\dots,m_r)$ we consider the number of even parts strictly…
In this paper, we enumerate prime graphs with respect to the Cartesian multiplication of graphs. We use the unique factorization of a connected graph into the product of prime graphs given by Sabidussi to find explicit formulas for labeled…
In the branch of mathematics known as graph theory, graphs are considered as a set of points, called vertices, with connections between these points, called edges. The purpose of this paper is to study mappings between two graphs that have…
Since the pioneering work of R. M. Foster in the 1930s, many graph repositories have been created to support research in graph theory. This survey reviews many of these graph repositories and summarises the scope and contents of each…
We introduce a new notation for representing labeled regular bipartite graphs of arbitrary degree. Several enumeration problems for labeled and unlabeled regular bipartite graphs have been introduced. A general algorithm for enumerating all…
A graph composition is a partition of the vertex set such that each member of the partition induces a connected sub- graph, and the composition number of a graph is the number of possible graph compositions. A partition of a set S of…
We use generating functions to enumerate Arndt compositions, that is, integer compositions where there is a descent between every second pair of parts, starting with the first and second part, and so on. In 2013, J\"org Arndt noted that…
We study a generating function for the sum over fatgraphs with specified valences of vertices and faces, inversely weighted by the order of their symmetry group. A compact expression is found for general (i.e. non necessarily connected)…
We enumerate the independent sets of several classes of regular and almost regular graphs and compute the corresponding generating functions. We also note the relations between these graphs and other combinatorial objects and, in some…
In this short survey article, we present an elementary, yet quite powerful, method of enumerating independent sets in graphs. This method was first employed more than three decades ago by Kleitman and Winston and has subsequently been used…
In 1979 Frankl conjectured that in a finite non-trivial union-closed collection of sets there has to be an element that belongs to at least half the sets. We show that this is equivalent to the conjecture that in a finite non-trivial graph…
A generally intelligent learner should generalize to more complex tasks than it has previously encountered, but the two common paradigms in machine learning -- either training a separate learner per task or training a single learner for all…
In matching theory, one of the most fundamental and classical branches of combinatorics, {\em canonical decompositions} of graphs are powerful and versatile tools that form the basis of this theory. However, the abilities of the known…
