Boxicity of a graph G(V, E) is the minimum integer k such that G can be represented as the intersection graph of axis parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^k$. Cubicity is a variant of boxicity, where the axis parallel boxes in the intersection…

In this paper, we study how to draw Halin-graphs, i.e., planar graphs that consist of a tree $T$ and a cycle among the leaves of that tree. Based on tree-drawing algorithms and the pathwidth $ pw(T) $, a well-known graph parameter, we find…

The boxicity $\operatorname{box}(H)$ of a graph $H$ is the smallest integer $d$ such that $H$ is the intersection of $d$ interval graphs, or equivalently, that $H$ is the intersection graph of axis-aligned boxes in $\mathbb{R}^d$. These…

A \emph{linear $k$-forest} is a forest whose components are paths of length at most $k$. The \emph{linear $k$-arboricity} of a graph $G$, denoted by ${\rm la}_k(G)$, is the least number of linear $k$-forests needed to decompose $G$.…

A star $k$-edge coloring is a proper edge coloring such that there are no bichromatic paths or cycles of length four. The smallest integer $k$ such that $G$ admits a star $k$-edge coloring is the star chromatic index of $G$. Deng \etal…

A path factor in a graph $G$ is a factor of $G$ in which every component is a path on at least two vertices. Let $T\Box P_n$ be the Cartesian product of a tree $T$ and a path on $n$ vertices. Kao and Weng proved that $T\Box P_n$ is…

For a graph $G$, its \emph{cubicity} $cub(G)$ is the minimum dimension $k$ such that $G$ is representable as the intersection graph of (axis--parallel) cubes in $k$--dimensional space. Chandran, Mannino and Oriolo showed that for a…

A Hamiltonian graph $G$ of order $n$ is $k$-ordered, $2\leq k \leq n$, if for every sequence $v_1, v_2, \ldots ,v_k$ of $k$ distinct vertices of $G$, there exists a Hamiltonian cycle that encounters $v_1, v_2, \ldots , v_k$ in this order.…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph of order $n$ and let $1\leq k< n$ be an integer. The $k$-token graph of $G$ is the graph whose vertices are all the $k$-subsets of $V$, two of which are adjacent whenever their symmetric difference is a pair of…

We prove that every planar graph is contained in $H_1\boxtimes H_2\boxtimes K_2$ for some graphs $H_1$ and $H_2$ both with treewidth 2. This resolves a question of Liu, Norin and Wood [arXiv:2410.20333]. We also show this result is best…

The following theorem is proved: For all $k$-connected graphs $G$ and $H$ each with at least $n$ vertices, the treewidth of the cartesian product of $G$ and $H$ is at least $k(n -2k+2)-1$. For $n\gg k$ this lower bound is asymptotically…
