A biclique of a graph $G$ is an induced complete bipartite subgraph of $G$ such that neither part is empty. A star is a biclique of $G$ such that one part has exactly one vertex. The star graph of $G$ is the intersection graph of the…
A \emph{geometric graph} is a graph whose vertex set is a set of points in general position in the plane, and its edges are straight line segments joining these points. We show that for every integer $k \ge 2$, there exists a constat $c>0$…
In this work, we introduce the \emph{interval permutation segment (IP-SEG)} model that naturally generalizes the geometric intersection models of interval and permutation graphs. We study properties of two graph classes that arise from the…
A path in an edge-colored graph is called \emph{a conflict-free path} if there exists a color used on only one of its edges. An edge-colored graph is called \emph{conflict-free connected} if there is a conflict-free path between each pair…
A \emph{Stick graph} is an intersection graph of axis-aligned segments such that the left end-points of the horizontal segments and the bottom end-points of the vertical segments lie on a `ground line,' a line with slope $-1$. It is an open…
We define the crossing number for an embedding of a graph G into R^3, and prove a lower bound on it which almost implies the classical crossing lemma. We also give sharp bounds on the space crossing numbers of pseudo-random graphs.
An incidence in a graph $G$ is a pair $(v,e)$ where $v$ is a vertex of $G$ and $e$ is an edge of $G$ incident to $v$. Two incidences $(v,e)$ and $(u,f)$ are adjacent if at least one of the following holds: $(a)$ $v = u$, $(b)$ $e = f$, or…
An overlap representation is an assignment of sets to the vertices of a graph in such a way that two vertices are adjacent if and only if the sets assigned to them overlap. The overlap number of a graph is the minimum number of elements…
A graph $G=(V,E)$ is a geometric intersection graph if every node $v \in V$ is identified with a geometric object of some particular type, and two nodes are adjacent if the corresponding objects intersect. Geometric intersection graph…
Vassiliev invariants can be studied by studying the spaces of chord diagrams associated with singular knots. To these chord diagrams are associated the intersection graphs of the chords. We extend results of Chmutov, Duzhin and Lando to…
A $k$-coloring of a graph $G$ is a partition of the set of vertices of $G$ into $k$ independent sets, which are called colors. A $k$-coloring is neighbor-locating if any two vertices belonging to the same color can be distinguished from…
The \emph{thinness} of a graph is a width parameter that generalizes some properties of interval graphs, which are exactly the graphs of thinness one. Graphs with thinness at most two include, for example, bipartite convex graphs. Many…
A curve in the plane is $x$-monotone if every vertical line intersects it at most once. A family of curves are called pseudo-segments if every pair of them have at most one point in common. We construct $2^{\Omega(n^{4/3})}$ families, each…
We investigate the notion of quantum chromatic number of a graph, which is the minimal number of colours necessary in a protocol in which two separated provers can convince an interrogator with certainty that they have a colouring of the…
We classify modules and rings with some specific properties of their intersection graphs. In particular, we describe rings with infinite intersection graphs containing maximal left ideals of finite degree. This answers a question raised in…
Let $\mathcal{V}$ and $\mathcal{U}$ be the point sets of two independent homogeneous Poisson processes on $\mathbb{R}^d$. A graph $\mathcal{G}_\mathcal{V}$ with vertex set $\mathcal{V}$ is constructed by first connecting pairs of points…
In a coupled network cells can interact in several ways. There is a vast literature from the last twenty years that investigates this interacting dynamics under a graph theory formalism, namely as a graph endowed with an input-equivalence…
For each positive integer $n$, we define the divisibility relation graph $D_n$ whose vertex set is the set of divisors of $n$, and in which two vertices are adjacent if one is a divisor of the other. This type of graph is a special case of…
A graph $G$ is said to be $k$-subspace choosable over a field $\mathbb{F}$ if for every assignment of $k$-dimensional subspaces of some finite-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}$ to the vertices of $G$, it is possible to choose for…
Let $F_G(P)$ be a functional defined on the set of all the probability distributions on the vertex set of a graph $G$. We say that $G$ is \emph{symmetric with respect to $F_G(P)$} if the uniform distribution on $V(G)$ maximizes $F_G(P)$.…
