We prove three results conjectured or stated by Chartrand, Fink and Zhang [European J. Combin {\bf 21} (2000) 181--189, Disc. Appl. Math. {\bf 116} (2002) 115--126, and pre-print of ``The hull number of an oriented graph'']. For a digraph…
In this paper we consider the fundamental problem of approximating the diameter $D$ of directed or undirected graphs. In a seminal paper, Aingworth, Chekuri, Indyk and Motwani [SIAM J. Comput. 1999] presented an algorithm that computes in…
Erd\H{o}s determined the maximum size of a nonhamiltonian graph of order $n$ and minimum degree at least $k$ in 1962. Recently, Ning and Peng generalized. Erd\H{o}s' work and gave the maximum size $h(n,c,k)$ of graphs with prescribed order…
Improving a recent result of Fundikwa, Mazorodze, and Mukwembi, we show that $d \leq (2n-3)/5$ for every connected $C_4$-free graph of order $n$, diameter $d$, and edge-connectivity at least $3$, which is best possible up to a small…
An oriented graph is an orientation of a simple graph. In 2009, Keevash, K\"{u}hn and Osthus proved that every sufficiently large oriented graph $D$ of order $n$ with $(3n-4)/8$ is Hamiltonian. Later, Kelly, K\"{u}hn and Osthus showed that…
Determining the maximum number of edges under degree and matching number constraints have been solved for general graphs by Chv\'{a}tal and Hanson (1976), and by Balachandran and Khare (2009). It follows from the structure of those extremal…
We prove that the diameter of any unweighted connected graph G is O(k log n/lambda_k), for any k>= 2. Here, lambda_k is the k smallest eigenvalue of the normalized laplacian of G. This solves a problem posed by Gil Kalai.
A bisection in a graph is a cut in which the number of vertices in the two parts differ by at most 1. In this paper, we give lower bounds for the maximum weight of bisections of edge-weighted graphs with bounded maximum degree. Our results…
The concept of generalized $k$-connectivity $\kappa_{k}(G)$ of a graph $G$ was introduced by Chartrand et al. in recent years. In our early paper, extremal theory for this graph parameter was started. We determined the minimal number of…
A graph is diameter-$k$-critical if its diameter equals $k$ and the deletion of any edge increases its diameter. The Murty-Simon Conjecture states that for any diameter-2-critical graph $G$ of order $n$, $e(G) \leq \lfloor…
In this paper, we classify non-geometric distance-regular graphs of diameter at least $3$ with smallest eigenvalue at least $-3$. This is progress towards what is hoped to be an eventual complete classification of distance-regular graphs…
We give a simplified version of the proofs that, outside of their isolated vertices, the complement of the enhanced power graph and of the power graph are connected of diameter at most $3$.
P. Erd\H{o}s, J. Pach, R. Pollack, and Z. Tuza [J. Combin. Theory, B 47 (1989), 279--285] made conjectures for the maximum diameter of connected graphs without a complete subgraph $K_{k+1}$, which have order $n$ and minimum degree $\delta$.…
The dichromatic number of an oriented graph is the minimum size of a partition of its vertices into acyclic induced subdigraphs. We prove that oriented graphs with no induced directed path on six vertices and no triangle have bounded…
The flip graph is the graph whose nodes correspond to non-isomorphic combinatorial triangulations and whose edges connect pairs of triangulations that can be obtained one from the other by flipping a single edge. In this note we show that…
The bloom of complex network study, in particular, with respect to scale-free ones, is considerably triggering the research of scale-free graph itself. Therefore, a great number of interesting results have been reported in the past,…
It is known that the number of vertices of a graph of diameter two cannot exceed $d^2+1$. In this contribution we give a new lower bound for orders of Cayley graphs of diameter two in the form $C(d,2)>0.684d^2$ valid for all degrees $d\geq…
Given a graph $G$, let $\mathrm{diam}(G)$ be the greatest distance between any two vertices of $G$ which lie in the same connected component, and let $\mathrm{diam}^+(G)$ be the greatest distance between any two vertices of $G$; so…
A convex geometric graph is a graph whose vertices are the corners of a convex polygon P in the plane and whose edges are boundary edges and diagonals of the polygon. It is called triangulation-free if its non-boundary edges do not contain…
It is an intriguing question to see what kind of information on the structure of an oriented graph $D$ one can obtain if $D$ does not contain a fixed oriented graph $H$ as a subgraph. The related question in the unoriented case has been an…
