The boxicity of a graph G is defined as the minimum integer k such that G is an intersection graph of axis-parallel k-dimensional boxes. Chordal bipartite graphs are bipartite graphs that do not contain an induced cycle of length greater…

For a graph $G$, Bayer-Denker-Milutinovi\'c-Rowlands-Sundaram-Xue study in \cite{B-D-M-R-S-X} a new graph complex $\Delta_k^t(G)$, namely the simplicial complex with facets that are complements to independent sets of size $k$ in $G$. They…

Given a simple undirected graph $G$ there is a simplicial complex $\mathrm{Ind}(G)$, called the independence complex, whose faces correspond to the independent sets of $G$. This is a well studied concept because it provides a fertile ground…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a simplicial complex to be approximately Cohen-Macaulay. Namely it is approximately Cohen-Macaulay if and only if the ideal associated to its Alexander dual is componentwise linear and…

A bipartite graph is chordal bipartite if every cycle of length at least 6 has a chord in it. In this paper, we investigate the structure of $P_5$-free chordal bipartite graphs and show that these graphs have a Nested Neighborhood Ordering,…

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $H_1,H_2<G$ be two subgroups. In this paper, we are concerned with the bipartite graph whose vertices are $G/H_1\cup G/H_2$ and a coset $g_1H_1$ is connected with another coset $g_2H_2$ if and only if…

We present an algorithm for determining whether a bipartite graph $G$ is 2-chordal (formerly doubly chordal bipartite). At its core this algorithm is an extension of the existing efficient algorithm for determining whether a graph is…

Let $G = (X, Y; E)$ be a bipartite graph with two vertex partition subsets $X$ and $Y$. $G$ is said to be balanced if $|X| = |Y|$. $G$ is said to be bipancyclic if it contains cycles of every even length from $4$ to $|V(G)|$. In this note,…

Let G be a simple (i.e., no loops and no multiple edges) graph. We investigate the question of how to modify G combinatorially to obtain a sequentially Cohen-Macaulay graph. We focus on modifications given by adding configurations of…

A bipartite graph is chordal bipartite if every cycle of length at least six contains a chord. We determine the minimum size in 2-connected chordal bipartite graphs with given order.

A bipartite graph is called bipancyclic if it contains cycles of every even length from four up to the number of vertices in the graph. A theorem of Schmeichel and Mitchem states that for $n \geq 4$, every balanced bipartite graph on $2n$…
