Edge ideals of finite simple graphs are well-studied over polynomial rings. In this paper, we initiate the study of edge ideals over exterior algebras, specifically focusing on the depth and singular varieties of such ideals. We prove an…

We show that if $G$ is a $d$-regular Vizing-class-1 graph, then the proper additive chromatic index of $G$, denoted $\eta'_p(G)$, is equal to its chromatic index. This verifies that a strengthening of the Additive Coloring Conjecture of…

Alphatrion conjectured that it is possible to label the vertices of an $n$-dimensional hypercube with distinct positive integers such that for every Hamiltonian path $a_1, \dots, a_{2^n},$ we have $a_i + a_{i+1}$ prime for all $i.$ We prove…

Suppose a finite, unweighted, combinatorial graph $G = (V,E)$ is the union of several (degree-)regular graphs which are then additionally connected with a few additional edges. $G$ will then have only a small number of vertices $v \in V$…

We consider the problem of assigning short labels to the vertices and edges of a graph $G$ so that given any query $\langle s,t,F\rangle$ with $|F|\leq f$, we can determine whether $s$ and $t$ are still connected in $G-F$, given only the…

Let $(a,a+d,a+2d)$ be an arithmetic progression of positive integers. The following statements are proved: (1) If $a\mid 2d$, then $(a, a+d, a+2d)\in\mdeg(\Tame(\mathbb{C}^3))$. (2) If $a\nmid 2d$, then, except for arithmetic progressions…

We describe a way of assigning labels to the vertices of any undirected graph on up to $n$ vertices, each composed of $n/2+O(1)$ bits, such that given the labels of two vertices, and no other information regarding the graph, it is possible…

In this paper, we study the complexity of the edge monitoring problem. A vertex $v$ monitors an edge $e$ if both extremities together with $v$ form a triangle in the graph. Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ and a weight function on edges $c$ where…

B. Szegedy [Edge coloring models and reflection positivity, {\sl Journal of the American Mathematical Society} {\bf 20} (2007) 969--988] showed that the number of homomorphisms into a weighted graph is equal to the partition function of a…

We consider precolouring extension problems for proper edge-colourings of graphs and multigraphs, in an attempt to prove stronger versions of Vizing's and Shannon's bounds on the chromatic index of (multi)graphs in terms of their maximum…

In this paper, we introduce the concepts of positive and negative $p$-energies of graphs and investigate their behavior under edge addition. Specifically, we generalize the classical notions of positive and negative square energies to the…

A graph $G = (V, E)$ is called antimagic if there exists a bijective labelling $f : E \rightarrow \{1, 2, \ldots, |E|\}$ such that the vertex-sums of labels over edges incident to a given vertex are all distinct. In this paper, we extend…

We study the problem of determining whether a given graph~$G=(V,E)$ admits a matching~$M$ whose removal destroys all odd cycles of~$G$ (or equivalently whether~$G-M$ is bipartite). This problem is equivalent to determine whether~$G$ admits…

A k-valuation is a special type of edge k-colouring of a medial graph. Various graph polynomials, such as the Tutte, Penrose, Bollob\'as-Riordan, and transition polynomials, admit combinatorial interpretations and evaluations as weighted…

Extending a result of Christiansen, we prove that every mutli-graph $G=(V,E)$ admits a proper edge colouring $\phi:E\to \{1,2,\dots\}$ which is local, that is, $\phi(e)\le \max\{d(x)+\pi(x),d(y)+\pi(y)\}$ for every edge $e$ with end-points…

For a graph $G=(V,E),$ a matching $M$ is a set of independent edges. The topic of matchings is well studied in graph theory. In this paper many varieties of matchings are discussed.

Let $G$ a bipartite graph with vertex bipartition $\{A,B\}$ and let $m=|E(G)|$. An $(A,B)$-uniformly ordered labeling of $G$ is a labeling $f\colon V\rightarrow [0,2m]$ which, among other conditions, requires that there exists $\lambda\in…
