Let $G$ be a graph such that, whenever two vertices $x$ and $y$ of $G$ are joined by three internally disjoint paths, $x$ and $y$ are adjacent. Jamison and Mulder determined that the set of such graphs coincides with the set of graphs that…
We study homomorphism problems of signed graphs. A signed graph is an undirected graph where each edge is given a sign, positive or negative. An important concept for signed graphs is the operation of switching at a vertex, which is to…
A signed graph is a graph together with an assignment of signs to the edges. A closed walk in a signed graph is said to be positive (negative) if it has an even (odd) number of negative edges, counting repetition. Recognizing the signs of…
A signed graph is one that features two types of edges: positive and negative. Balanced signed graphs are those in which all cycles contain an even number of positive edges. In the adjacency matrix of a signed graph, entries can be $0$,…
We show that the groupoids of two directed graphs are isomorphic if and only if the two graphs are orbit equivalent by an orbit equivalence that preserves isolated eventually periodic points. We also give a complete description of the…
The ground set for all matroids in this paper is the set of all edges of a complete graph. The notion of a {\it maximum matroid for a graph} $G$ is introduced, and the existence and uniqueness of the maximum matroid for any graph $G$ is…
We show that the basis graph of an even delta-matroid is Hamiltonian if it has more than two vertices. More strongly, we prove that for two distinct edges $e$ and $f$ sharing a common end, it has a Hamiltonian cycle using $e$ and avoiding…
In this paper, we investigate the importance of column scaling in relating two signed-graphic representations of the same matroid. We used the Sage Mathematics software to generate many examples of signed-graphic matroids and their…
Two signed graphs are called switching isomorphic if one of them is isomorphic to a switching equivalent of the other. To determine the number of switching non-isomorphic signed graphs on a specific graph, we will establish a method based…
We study the complexity of the Graph Isomorphism problem on graph classes that are characterized by a finite number of forbidden induced subgraphs, focusing mostly on the case of two forbidden subgraphs. We show hardness results and develop…
Determining whether two graphs are structurally identical is a fundamental problem with applications spanning mathematics, computer science, chemistry, and network science. Despite decades of study, graph isomorphism remains a challenging…
We associate a signed digraph with a list of matrices whose dimensions permit them to be multiplied, and whose product is square. Cycles in this graph have a parity, that is, they are either even (termed e-cycles) or odd (termed o-cycles).…
In this paper we employ Tutte's theory of bridges to derive a decomposition theorem for binary matroids arising from signed graphs. The proposed decomposition differs from previous decomposition results on matroids that have appeared in the…
In this work we provide a decomposition theorem for the class of quaternary and non-binary signed-graphic matroids. This generalizes previous results for binary signed-graphic matroids and graphic matroids, and it provides the theoretical…
In a recent paper, we introduced the simultaneous representation problem (defined for any graph class C) and studied the problem for chordal, comparability and permutation graphs. For interval graphs, the problem is defined as follows. Two…
We propose a novel definition of hypergraphical matroids, defined for arbitrary hypergraphs, simultaneously generalizing previous definitions for regular hypergraphs (Main, 1978), and for the hypergraphs of circuits of a matroid…
Motivated by work in graph theory, we define the fixing number for a matroid. We give upper and lower bounds for fixing numbers for a general matroid in terms of the size and maximum orbit size (under the action of the matroid automorphism…
The presented material is devoted to the equivalent conversion from the vertex graphs to the edge graphs. We suggest that the proved theorems solve the problem of the isomorphism of graphs, the problem of the graph's enumeration with the…
In a signed graph each edge has a sign, $+1$ or $-1$. We introduce in the present paper a new definition of connection in a signed graph by the existence of both positive and negative chains between vertices. We prove some results and…
A signed circuit cover of a signed graph is a natural analog of a circuit cover of a graph, and is equivalent to a covering of its corresponding signed-graphic matroid with circuits. It was conjectured that a signed graph whose…
