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…

For a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, let $\nu(G)$ and $A(G)$ denote the matching number and adjacency matrix of $G$, respectively. The permanental polynomial of $G$ is defined as $\pi(G,x)={\rm per}(Ix-A(G))$. The permanental nullity of $G$,…

A circulant graph is a simple graph whose adjacency matrix can be represented in the form of a circulant matrix, while a nut graph is considered to be a graph whose null space is spanned by a single full vector. In a previous study by…

Given a finite group $G$, the generating graph $\Gamma(G)$ of $G$ has as vertices the (nontrivial) elements of $G$ and two vertices are adjacent if and only if they are distinct and generate $G$ as group elements. In this paper we…

The {\it prime graph} $\Gamma(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the graph whose vertex set is the set of prime divisors of $|G|$ and in which two distinct vertices $r$ and $s$ are adjacent if and only if there exists an element of $G$ of order…

A signed graph is a graph with a function that assigns a label of positive or negative to each edge. The sign of a circle is the product of the signs of its edges; a graph is balanced if all of its circles are positive. A set of edges whose…

Let $\Gamma$ denote a distance-regular graph with classical parameters $(D, b, \alpha, \beta)$ and $D\geq 3$. Assume the intersection numbers $a_1=0$ and $a_2\not=0$. We show $\Gamma$ is 3-bounded in the sense of the article [D-bounded…

This article considers the class of connected 3-colored digraphs. Let $G$ be a 3-colored digraph and $A(G)$ be its adjacency matrix. $G$ is said to be non-singular (resp. singular) if $A(G)$ is a non-singular (resp. singular) matrix. A…

A signed graph is a graph whose edges are labeled positive or negative. The sign of a cycle is the product of the signs of its edges. Zaslavsky proved in 2012 that, up to switching isomorphism, there are six different signed Petersen…
