We study limits of convergent sequences of string graphs, that is, graphs with an intersection representation consisting of curves in the plane. We use these results to study the limiting behavior of a sequence of random string graphs. We…
We study the relation between the growth rate of a graph property and the entropy of the graph limits that arise from graphs with that property. In particular, for hereditary classes we obtain a new description of the colouring number,…
In this paper, we introduce a class of graphs which we call average hereditary graphs. Many graphs that occur in the usual graph theory applications belong to this class of graphs. Many popular types of graphs fall under this class, such as…
We examine indivisibility for classes of graphs. We show that the class of hereditarily $\alpha$-sparse graphs is indivisible if and only if $\alpha > 2$. Additionally, we show that the following classes of graphs are indivisible: perfect…
We study the limit theory of large threshold graphs and apply this to a variety of models for random threshold graphs. The results give a nice set of examples for the emerging theory of graph limits.
We consider a class of growing random graphs obtained by creating vertices sequentially one by one: at each step, we choose uniformly the neighbours of the newly created vertex; its degree is a random variable with a fixed but arbitrary…
A class $\mathcal{G}$ of graphs is called hereditary if it is closed under taking induced subgraphs. We denote by $G^{epex}$ the class of graphs that are at most one edge away from being in $\mathcal{G}$. We note that $G^{epex}$ is…
We consider a variety of connections between threshold graphs, shifted complexes, and simplicial complexes naturally formed from a graph. These graphical complexes include the independent set, neighborhood, and dominance complexes. We…
A class $\mathcal{G}$ of graphs is called hereditary if it is closed under taking induced subgraphs. We denote by $\mathcal{G}^\mathrm{apex}$ the class of graphs $G$ that contain a vertex $v$ such that $G-v$ is in $\mathcal{G}$. We prove…
Characterisations of interval graphs, comparability graphs, co-comparability graphs, permutation graphs, and split graphs in terms of linear orderings of the vertex set are presented. As an application, it is proved that interval graphs,…
We generalize the notion of quasirandom which concerns a class of equivalent properties that random graphs satisfy. We show that the convergence of a graph sequence under the spectral distance is equivalent to the convergence using the…
Unigraphs are graphs identifiable up to isomorphism from their degree sequences. Given a class $\mathcal{A}$ of graphs, we define the class of $\mathcal{A}$-unigraphs to be graphs identifiable from degree sequence and membership in…
Intersection graphs are very important in both theoretical as well as application point of view. Depending on the geometrical representation, different type of intersection graphs are defined. Among them interval, circular-arc, permutation,…
We work out the graph limit theory for dense interval graphs. The theory developed departs from the usual description of a graph limit as a symmetric function $W(x,y)$ on the unit square, with $x$ and $y$ uniform on the interval $(0,1)$.…
Threshold graphs are a prevalent and widely studied class of simple graphs. They have several equivalent definitions which makes them a go-to class for finding examples and counter examples when testing and learning. This versatility has…
We characterize the graphs with loops whose degree sequences have no repeated values and find their adjacency spectrum. In the case of simple graphs, such graphs are called anti-regular graphs and are examples of threshold graphs. The…
In this paper, we define the quotinet graphs. In particular, we introduce the boundary quotient graphs, admissible boundary quotient graphs and subgraph boundary qoutient graphs. By the property of the quotient spaces, the boundary…
We use the theory of graph limits to study several quasi-random properties, mainly dealing with various versions of hereditary subgraph counts. The main idea is to transfer the properties of (sequences of) graphs to properties of graphons,…
The class of cographs is known to have unbounded linear clique-width. We prove that a hereditary class of cographs has bounded linear clique-width if and only if it does not contain all quasi-threshold graphs or their complements. The proof…
A class $\mathcal{G}$ of graphs is hereditary if it is closed under taking induced subgraphs. We investigate the edge-add class, $\mathcal{G}^{\mathrm{add}}$, consisting of graphs that can be made members of $\mathcal{G}$ by adding at most…
