A chorded cycle is a cycle with at least one chord. Gould asked in [Graphs Comb. 38 (2022) 189] the question: What spectral conditions imply a graph contains a chorded cycle? For a graph with fixed size, extremal spectral conditions are…

In this paper we provide some sufficient conditions for the existence of an odd or even cycle that passing a given vertex or an edge in $2$-connected or $2$-edge connected graphs. We provide some similar conditions for the existence of an…

Let $G$ be a graph with $n$ vertices and $\lambda_n(G)$ be the least eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix of $G$. In this paper, we give sharp bounds on the least eigenvalue of graphs without given pathes or cycles and determine the extremal…

It is well-known that an undirected graph has no odd cycle if and only if it is bipartite. A less obvious, but similar result holds for directed graphs: a strongly connected digraph has no odd cycle if and only if it is bipartite. Can this…

We consider a variable order differential operator on a graph with a cycle. We study the inverse spectral problem for this operator by the system of spectra. The main results of the paper are the uniqueness theorem and the constructive…

We present a general method for obtaining the spectra of large graphs with short cycles using ideas from statistical mechanics of disordered systems. This approach leads to an algorithm that determines the spectra of graphs up to a high…

Answers are offered to the Gould's question to find spectral sufficient conditions for a graph to have a chorded cycle via signless Laplacian spectral radius. The conditions are tight.

What spectral conditions imply a graph contains a chorded cycle? This question was asked by R.J. Gould in 2022. We answer two modified versions of Gould's question by giving tight spectral conditions that imply the existence of doubly…

A chord of a cycle $C$ is an edge joining two non-consecutive vertices of $C$. A cycle $C$ in a graph $G$ is chorded if the vertex set of $C$ induces at least one chord. In this paper, we prove that if $G$ is a graph with order $n\geq 6$…

The goal of this paper is to describe a sufficient condition on cycles in graphs for which the edge ideal is splittable. We give an explicit splitting function for such ideals.

We extend the classical stability theorem of Erdos and Simonovits in two directions: first, we allow the order of the forbidden graph to grow as log of order of the host graph, and second, our extremal condition is on the spectral radius of…

Consider a family of graphs having a fixed girth and a large size. We give an optimal lower asymptotic bound on the number of even cycles of any constant length, as the order of the graphs tends to infinity.

In this paper, we investigate the ratio of the numbers of odd and even cycles in outerplanar graphs. We verify that the ratio generally diverges to infinity as the order of a graph diverges to infinity. We also give sharp estimations of the…

In this paper, we first present spectral conditions for the existence of $C_{n-1}$ in graphs (2-connected graphs) of order $n$, which are motivated by a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s. Then we prove spectral conditions for the existence of…

We obtain sharp bounds for the number of n-cycles in a finite graph as a function of the number of edges, and prove that the complete graph is optimal in more ways than could be imagined. En route, we prove some sharp estimates on power…

We present a new sufficient condition on stability number and toughness of the graph to have an f-factor.

We present a deterministic linear-time algorithm for finding an odd cycle through two specified vertices in an undirected graph. This is shown in a generalized form as follows: Let $\Gamma$ be any group in which every element is of order at…

For a graph (undirected, directed, or mixed), a cycle-factor is a collection of vertex-disjoint cycles covering the entire vertex set. Cycle-factors subject to parity constraints arise naturally in the study of structural graph theory and…

In this paper, we obtain a sufficient condition for the existence of parity factors in a regular graph in terms of edge-connectivity. Moreover, we also show that our condition is sharp.

An odd coloring of a graph $G$ is a proper coloring of $G$ such that for every non-isolated vertex $v$, there is a color appearing an odd number of times in $N_G(v)$. Odd coloring of graphs was studied intensively in recent few years. In…
