We study the recently introduced boolean-width of graphs. Our structural results are as follows. Firstly, we show that almost surely the boolean-width of a random graph on $n$ vertices is $O(\log^2 n)$, and it is easy to find the…
We introduce the factorization graph of a finite group and study its connectedness and forbidden structures. We characterize all finite groups with connected factorization graphs and classify those with connected bipartite factorization…
The clique-width is known to be unbounded in the class of unit interval graphs. In this paper, we show that this is a minimal hereditary class of unbounded clique-width, i.e., in every hereditary subclass of unit interval graphs the…
We consider a non-projective class of inhomogeneous random graph models with interpretable parameters and a number of interesting asymptotic properties. Using the results of Bollob\'as et al. [2007], we show that i) the class of models is…
We study classes of graphs with bounded clique-width that are well-quasi-ordered by the induced subgraph relation, in the presence of labels on the vertices. We prove that, given a finite presentation of a class of graphs, one can decide…
Tan et al. conjectured that connected co-edge-regular graphs with four distinct eigenvalues and fixed smallest eigenvalue, when having sufficiently large valency, belong to two different families of graphs. In this paper we construct two…
The complexity of {\sc Colouring} is fully understood for $H$-free graphs, but there are still major complexity gaps if two induced subgraphs $H_1$ and $H_2$ are forbidden. Let $H_1$ be the $s$-vertex cycle $C_s$ and $H_2$ be the $t$-vertex…
The problem of defining a statistical ensemble of random graphs with an arbitrary connectivity distribution is discussed. Introducing such an ensemble is a step towards uderstanding the geometry of wide classes of graphs independently of…
We investigate new graph classes of bounded mim-width, strictly extending interval graphs and permutation graphs. The graphs $K_t \boxminus K_t$ and $K_t \boxminus S_t$ are graphs obtained from the disjoint union of two cliques of size $t$,…
A random set $S$ is $p$-spread if, for all sets $T$, $$\mathbb{P}(S \supseteq T) \leq p^{|T|}.$$ There is a constant $C>1$ large enough that for every graph $G$ with maximum degree $D$, there is a $C/D$-spread distribution on…
We determine the structure of $\{C_3, C_5\}$-free graphs with $n$ vertices and minimum degree larger than $n/5$: such graphs are homomorphic to the graph obtained from a $(5k - 3)$-cycle by adding all chords of length $1$ mod $5$, for some…
The 3-coloring of hereditary graph classes has been a deeply-researched problem in the last decade. A hereditary graph class is characterized by a (possibly infinite) list of minimal forbidden induced subgraphs $H_1,H_2,\ldots$; the graphs…
We investigate the emergence of spanning structures in sparse pseudo-random $k$-uniform hypergraphs, using the following comparatively weak notion of pseudo-randomness. A $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ on $n$ vertices is called…
This paper discusses the complete structure of the (bull, diamond)-free graphs. As an application of that, we give the characterization of the partitionable (bull, diamond)-free graphs. Moreover, we show that such a partition for a…
For two vertex disjoint graphs $H$ and $F$, we use $H\cup F$ to denote the graph with vertex set $V(H)\cup V(F)$ and edge set $E(H)\cup E(F)$, and use $H+F$ to denote the graph with vertex set $V(H)\cup V(F)$ and edge set $E(H)\cup…
We introduce a family of graphs, which we call down-left graphs, and study their combinatorial and algebraic properties. We show that members of this family are well-covered, $C_5$-free, and vertex decomposable. By applying a result of…
In this note, we consider the width of a supercritical random graph according to some commonly studied width measures. We give short, direct proofs of results of Lee, Lee and Oum, and of Perarnau and Serra, on the rank- and tree-width of…
It is shown how to construct a clique graph in which properties of cliques of a fixed order in a given graph are represented by vertices in a weighted graph. Various definitions and motivations for these weights are given. The detection of…
Let G be a simple graph and L = L(G) the Laplacian matrix of G. G is called L-integral if all its Laplacian eigenvalues are integer numbers. It is known that every cograph, a graph free of P4, is L-integral. The class of P4-sparse graphs…
We introduce a new subclass of chordal graphs that generalizes split graphs, which we call well-partitioned chordal graphs. Split graphs are graphs that admit a partition of the vertex set into cliques that can be arranged in a star…
