The aim of this paper is to present a generalization of Gr\"otzsch graph. Inspired by structure of the Gr\"otzsch's graph, we present constructions of two families of graphs, $G_m$ and $H_m$ for odd and even values of $m$ respectively and…

Let GP$(q^2,m)$ be the $m$-Paley graph defined on the finite field with order $q^2$. We study eigenfunctions and maximal cliques in generalised Paley graphs GP$(q^2,m)$, where $m \mid (q+1)$. In particular, we explicitly construct maximal…

Our main result is that every graph $G$ on $n\ge 10^4r^3$ vertices with minimum degree $\delta(G) \ge (1 - 1 / 10^4 r^{3/2} ) n$ has a fractional $K_r$-decomposition. Combining this result with recent work of Barber, K\"uhn, Lo and Osthus…

The purpose of this note is to draw attention to problems related to a concept called majority colouring recently studied by Kreutzer, Oum, Seymour, van der Zypen and Wood. They raised a problem of determining, for a natural number $k$, the…

The outer multiset dimension ${\rm dim}_{\rm ms}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the cardinality of a smallest set of vertices that uniquely recognize all the vertices outside this set by using multisets of distances to the set. It is proved that…

There is a class of graphs with well-covered dimension equal to the simplicial clique number that contains all chordal graphs and infinitely many other graphs. These graphs generalize a result by Brown and Nowakowski on the well-covered…

We consider the Erd\H{o}s, Pach, Pollack and Tuza problem, asking for the maximum diameter of a graph with given order $n$, minimum degree $\delta$ and clique number at most $\omega$. We solve their problem asymptotically for the first hard…

Let $G=(V, E)$ be a graph, where $V$ and $E$ are the vertex and edge sets, respectively. For two disjoint subsets $A$ and $B$ of $V$, we say $A$ \textit{dominates} $B$ if every vertex of $B$ is adjacent to at least one vertex of $A$ in $G$.…

We consider the structure of $H$-free subgraphs of graphs with high minimal degree. We prove that for every $k>m$ there exists an $\epsilon:=\epsilon(k,m)>0$ so that the following holds. For every graph $H$ with chromatic number $k$ from…

A clique transversal in a graph is a set of vertices intersecting all maximal cliques. The problem of determining the minimum size of a clique transversal has received considerable attention in the literature. In this paper, we initiate the…

The local metric dimension ${\rm dim}_l$ in relation to the clique number $\omega$ is investigated. It is proved that if $\omega(G)\leq n(G)-3$, then ${\rm dim}_l(G) \leq n(G)-3$ and the graphs attaining the bound classified. Moreover, the…

A set of vertices $W$ {\em resolves} a graph $G$ if every vertex of $G$ is uniquely determined by its vector of distances to the vertices in $W$. The {\em metric dimension} for $G$, denoted by $\dim(G)$, is the minimum cardinality of a…

For each $r\ge 4$, we show that any graph $G$ with minimum degree at least $(1-1/100r)|G|$ has a fractional $K_r$-decomposition. This improves the best previous bounds on the minimum degree required to guarantee a fractional…

Two vertices $u, v \in V$ of an undirected connected graph $G=(V,E)$ are resolved by a vertex $w$ if the distance between $u$ and $w$ and the distance between $v$ and $w$ are different. A set $R \subseteq V$ of vertices is a $k$-resolving…

Let $\textrm{cr}(G)$ denote the crossing number of a graph $G$. The well-known Zarankiewicz's conjecture (ZC) asserted $\textrm{cr}(K_{m,n})$ in 1954. In 1971, Harborth gave a conjecture (HC) on $\textrm{cr}(K_{x_1,...,x_n})$. HC on…

A set of vertices $W$ in a graph $G$ is called resolving if for any two distinct $x,y\in V(G)$, there is $v\in W$ such that ${\rm dist}_G(v,x)\neq{\rm dist}_G(v,y)$, where ${\rm dist}_G(u,v)$ denotes the length of a shortest path between…

We prove that if the edges of a graph G can be colored blue or red in such a way that every vertex belongs to a monochromatic k-clique of each color, then G has at least 4(k-1) vertices. This confirms a conjecture of Bucic, Lidicky, Long,…
