A sequence $S$ is potentially $K_{m}-C_{4}$-graphical if it has a realization containing a $K_{m}-C_{4}$ as a subgraph. Let $\sigma(K_{m}-C_{4}, n)$ denote the smallest degree sum such that every $n$-term graphical sequence $S$ with…

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…

We consider the problem of realizable interval-sequences. An interval sequence comprises of $n$ integer intervals $[a_i,b_i]$ such that $0\leq a_i \leq b_i \leq n-1$, and is said to be graphic/realizable if there exists a graph with degree…

Given a connected graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and a positive integer $k\le n$, a subgraph of $G$ on $k$ vertices is called a $k$-subgraph in $G$. We design combinatorial approximation algorithms for finding a connected $k$-subgraph in $G$…

Let $G$ be a simple graph. Consider all weightings of the vertices of $G$ with real numbers whose total sum is nonnegative. How many edges of $G$ have endpoints with a nonnegative sum? We consider the minimum number of such edges over all…

In this paper we consider a variation of the classical Tur\'{a}n-type extremal problems. Let $S$ be an $n$-term graphical sequence, and $\sigma(S)$ be the sum of the terms in $S$. Let $H$ be a graph. The problem is to determine the smallest…

The GG-width of a class of graphs GG is defined as follows. A graph G has GG-width k if there are k independent sets N1,...,Nk in G such that G can be embedded into a graph H in GG such that for every edge e in H which is not an edge in G,…

Let $H=(V(H),E(H))$ be a graph. A $k$-coloring of $H$ is a mapping $\pi : V(H) \longrightarrow \{1,2,\ldots, k\}$ so that each color class induces a $K_2$-free subgraph. For a graph $G$ of order at least $2$, a $G$-free $k$-coloring of $H$…

Given a graph $G = (V,E)$, a set $S \subset V$ is called a $k$-\emph{metric generator} for $G$ if any pair of different vertices of $G$ is distinguished by at least $k$ elements of $S$. A graph is $k$-\emph{metric dimensional} if $k$ is the…

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.…

A set of vertices in a graph is a Hamiltonian subset if it induces a subgraph containing a Hamiltonian cycle. Kim, Liu, Sharifzadeh and Staden proved that among all graphs with minimum degree $d$, $K_{d+1}$ minimises the number of…

A set of vertices $S$ is a \emph{determining set} of a graph $G$ if every automorphism of $G$ is uniquely determined by its action on $S$. The \emph{determining number} of $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a determining set of $G$. This…

An \emph{s-graph} is a graph with two kinds of edges: \emph{subdivisible} edges and \emph{real} edges. A \emph{realisation} of an s-graph $B$ is any graph obtained by subdividing subdivisible edges of $B$ into paths of arbitrary length (at…

For a positive integer $k$ and a graph $H$ on $k$ vertices, we are interested in the inducibility of $H$, denoted $\mathrm{ind}(H)$, which is defined as the maximum possible probability that choosing $k$ vertices uniformly at random from a…

Let $G$ be a simple graph of order $n$ and let $k$ be an integer such that $1\leq k\leq n-1$. The $k$-token graph $G^{\{k\}}$ of $G$ is the graph whose vertices are the $k$-subsets of $V(G)$, where two vertices are adjacent in $G^{\{k\}}$…

Assume that we are given two graphic sequences, $\pi_1$ and $\pi_2$. We consider conditions for $\pi_1$ and $\pi_2$ which guarantee that there exists a simple graph $G_2$ realizing $\pi_2$ such that $G_2$ is the subgraph of any simple graph…

The Kneser Graph $K(n,k)$ has as vertices all $k$-subsets of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ and edges connecting two vertices if they are disjoint. The $s$-stable Kneser Graph $K_{s-stab}(n, k)$ is obtained from the Kneser graph by deleting vertices with…

We introduce the class of interval $H$-graphs, which is the generalization of interval graphs, particularly interval bigraphs. For a fixed graph $H$ with vertices $a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k$, we say that an input graph $G$ with given partition…
