Distance-regular graphs are a key concept in Algebraic Combinatorics and have given rise to several generalizations, such as association schemes. Motivated by spectral and other algebraic characterizations of distance-regular graphs, we…
We introduce the concept of distance ideals of graphs, which can be regarded as a generalization of the Smith normal form and the spectra of the distance matrix of a graph. We obtain a classification of the graphs with at most one trivial…
Let $G_\omega$ be an edge-weighted simple graph. In this paper, we give a complete characterization of the graph $G_\omega$ whose edge ideal $I(G_\omega)$ is integrally closed. We also show that if $G_\omega$ is an edge-weighted star graph,…
We generalize the tree-confluent graphs to a broader class of graphs called Delta-confluent graphs. This class of graphs and distance-hereditary graphs, a well-known class of graphs, coincide. Some results about the visualization of…
Large graphs are difficult to represent, visualize, and understand. In this paper, we introduce "gate graph" - a new approach to perform graph simplification. A gate graph provides a simplified topological view of the original graph.…
We report on some findings concerning Connes' noncommutative distance $d$ on a weighted undirected graph $G$. Our main result is the lower bound $\ell/\Delta(G)\le d$ where $\ell$ is the geodesic distance and $\Delta(G)$ the degree of $G$.…
A graph $H$ is an \emph{isometric} subgraph of $G$ if $d_H(u,v)= d_G(u,v)$, for every pair~$u,v\in V(H)$. A graph is \emph{distance preserving} if it has an isometric subgraph of every possible order. A graph is \emph{sequentially distance…
A non-complete geometric distance-regular graph is the point graph of a partial geometry in which the set of lines is a set of Delsarte cliques. In this paper, we prove that for fixed integer $m\geq 2$, there are only finitely many…
In a recent paper, Chernikov and Starchenko prove that graphs defined in distal theories have strong regularity properties, generalizing previous results about graphs defined by semi-algebraic relations. We give a shorter, purely…
A graph is said to be globally rigid if almost all embeddings of the graph's vertices in the Euclidean plane will define a system of edge-length equations with a unique (up to isometry) solution. In 2007, Jackson, Servatius and Servatius…
Weakly distance-regular digraphs are a natural directed version of distance-regular graphs. In [8], the third author and Suzuki proposed a question when an orientation of a distance-regular graph defines a weakly distance-regular digraph.…
Let $W(G)$ be the Wiener index of a graph $G$. We say that a vertex $v \in V(G)$ is a \v{S}olt\'es vertex in $G$ if $W(G - v) = W(G)$, i.e. the Wiener index does not change if the vertex $v$ is removed. In 1991, \v{S}olt\'es posed the…
The distance matrix $\mathcal{D}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the matrix containing the pairwise distances between vertices. The transmission of a vertex $v_i$ in $G$ is the sum of the distances from $v_i$ to all other vertices and $T(G)$ is the…
The stability number of a graph G is the cardinality of a stability system of G (that is of a stable set of maximum size of G). A graph is alpha-stable if its stability number remains the same upon both the deletion and the addition of any…
In this note, we give answers to three questions from the paper [A. Das, Triameter of graphs, Discuss. Math. Graph Theory, 41 (2021), 601--616]. Namely, we obtain a tight lower bound for the triameter of trees in terms of order and number…
A nonempty graph G is called generalized 3-distance-balanced, (3-GDB) whenever for every edge ab, |Wab|=3|Wba| or conversely. As well as a graph G is called generalized 3-nicely distance-balanced (3-GNDB) whenever for every edge ab of G,…
We calculate the distribution with respect to the vacuum state of the distance-$k$ graph of a $d$-regular tree. From this result we show that the distance-$k$ graph of a $d$-regular graphs converges to the distribution of the distance-$k$…
In this paper, we study self-complementary distance-regular Cayley graphs over abelian groups. We prove that if a regular graph is self-complementary distance-regular, then it is self-complementary strongly regular. We also deal with…
A graph is $\ell$-reconstructible if it is determined by its multiset of induced subgraphs obtained by deleting $\ell$ vertices. We prove that strongly regular graphs with at least six vertices are $2$-reconstructible.
Let $G$ be a connected graph. The average distance of a vertex $v$ of $G$ is the arithmetic mean of the distances from $v$ to all other vertices of $G$. The proximity and remoteness of $G$ are defined as the minimum and maximum,…
