Graph burning is a discrete-time process that models the spread of social contagion. Initially, all vertices are unburned. In each round, one unburned vertex is selected and burned, while any unburned vertex that has a burned neighbour from…
The deck of a graph $G$ is given by the multiset of (unlabelled) subgraphs $\{G-v:v\in V(G)\}$. The subgraphs $G-v$ are referred to as the cards of $G$. Brown and Fenner recently showed that, for $n\geq29$, the number of edges of a graph…
We study a random graph $G_n$, which combines aspects of geometric random graphs and preferential attachment. The resulting random graphs have power-law degree sequences with finite mean and possibly infinite variance. In particular, the…
It is not hard to find many complete bipartite graphs which are not determined by their spectra. We show that the graph obtained by deleting an edge from a complete bipartite graph is determined by its spectrum. We provide some graphs, each…
A random intersection graph is constructed by independently assigning a subset of a given set of objects $W,$ to each vertex of the vertex set $V$ of a simple graph $G.$ There is an edge between two vertices of $V,$ iff their respective…
Strongly chordal graphs are a subclass of chordal graphs. The interest in this subclass stems from the fact that many problems which are NP-complete for chordal graphs are solvable in polynomial time for this subclass. However, we are not…
We present a short way of proving the inequalities obtained by Wright in [Journal of Graph Theory, 4: 393 - 407 (1980)] concerning the number of connected graphs with $\ell$ edges more than vertices.
The tensor product of two graphs, $G$ and $H$, has a vertex set $V(G)\times V(H)$ and an edge between $(u,v)$ and $(u',v')$ iff both $u u' \in E(G)$ and $v v' \in E(H)$. Let $A(G)$ denote the limit of the independence ratios of tensor…
An $r$-augmented tree is a rooted tree plus $r$ edges added from each leaf to ancestors. For $d,g,r\in\mathbb{N}$, we construct a bipartite $r$-augmented complete $d$-ary tree having girth at least $g$. The height of such trees must grow…
Let $\Phi=(G, \varphi)$ be a complex unit gain graph (or $\mathbb{T}$-gain graph) and $A(\Phi)$ be its adjacency matrix, where $G$ is called the underlying graph of $\Phi$. The rank of $\Phi$, denoted by $r(\Phi)$, is the rank of $A(\Phi)$.…
We consider the following question. We have a dense regular graph $G$ with degree $\alpha n$, where $\alpha>0$ is a constant. We add $m=o(n^2)$ random edges. The edges of the augmented graph $G(m)$ are given independent edge weights $X(e)$,…
A geometric graph is a graph drawn in the plane so that its vertices and edges are represented by points in general position and straight line segments, respectively. A vertex of a geometric graph is called pointed if it lies outside of the…
Simple drawings of graphs are those in which each pair of edges share at most one point, either a common endpoint or a proper crossing. In this paper we study the problem of extending a simple drawing $D(G)$ of a graph $G$ by inserting a…
In this paper, we show that for an $n$-vertex graph $G$ of genus $g$, the edge expansion of $G$ can be determined in time $n^{O(g^2)}$. We show that the same is true for various other similar measures of edge connectivity.
We give exact formulas for the transmission (i.e. the sum of all distances between vertices) of perfect trees and rooted powers of (connected finite) graphs.
What are the relations between the edge weights and the topology in real-world graphs? Given only the topology of a graph, how can we assign realistic weights to its edges based on the relations? Several trials have been done for…
A weighting of the edges of a hypergraph is called vertex-coloring if the weighted degrees of the vertices yield a proper coloring of the graph, i.e., every edge contains at least two vertices with different weighted degrees. In this paper…
Convexification techniques have gained increasing interest over the past decades. In this work, we apply a recently developed convexification technique for fractional programs by He, Liu and Tawarmalani (2024) to the problem of determining…
We study biplane graphs drawn on a finite planar point set $S$ in general position. This is the family of geometric graphs whose vertex set is $S$ and can be decomposed into two plane graphs. We show that two maximal biplane graphs---in the…
We extend the concept of graph energy, introduced by Gutman, to matrices. We give upper and lower bounds on matrix energy extending previous results for graphs. In particular, we estimate the energy of almost all graphs.
