An $(n,s,q)$-graph is an $n$-vertex multigraph where every set of $s$ vertices spans at most $q$ edges. In this paper, we determine the maximum product of the edge multiplicities in $(n,s,q)$-graphs if the congruence class of $q$ modulo…

We consider two variants of the induced subgraph isomorphism problem for two independent binomial random graphs with constant edge-probabilities p_1,p_2. In particular, (i) we prove a sharp threshold result for the appearance of G_{n,p_1}…

We consider numbers and sizes of independent sets in graphs with minimum degree at least $d$, when the number $n$ of vertices is large. In particular we investigate which of these graphs yield the maximum numbers of independent sets of…

In this paper, the extremal graph with the maximum RRD-value among all the graphs of order n with given cut vertices or edges is characterized. In addition, an upper bounds on the reciprocal degree distance in terms of the number of cut…

The maximum cardinality of an induced $2$-regular subgraph of a graph $G$ is denoted by $c_{\rm ind}(G)$. We prove that if $G$ is an $r$-regular graph of order $n$, then $c_{\rm ind}(G) \geq \frac{n}{2(r-1)} + \frac{1}{(r-1)(r-2)}$ and we…

An induced matching in a graph is a set of edges whose endpoints induce a $1$-regular subgraph. Gupta et al. (2012,\cite{Gupta}) showed that every $n$-vertex graph has at most $10^{\frac{n}{5}}\approx 1.5849^n$ maximal induced matchings,…

In their paper, Bounds on the Number of Edges in Hypertrees, G.Y. Katona and P.G.N. Szab\'o introduced a new, natural definition of hypertrees in $k$-uniform hypergraphs and gave lower and upper bounds on the number of edges. They also…

In this paper, motivated by a question posed in \cite{AH}, we introduce strongly biconvex graphs as a subclass of weakly chordal and bipartite graphs. We give a linear time algorithm to find an induced matching for such graphs and we prove…

We consider the problem of minimizing the number of triangles in a graph of given order and size and describe the asymptotic structure of extremal graphs. This is achieved by characterizing the set of flag algebra homomorphisms that…

A subset $M$ of the edge set of a graph $G$ is an induced matching of $G$ if given any two $e_1,e_2 \in M$, none of the vertices on $e_1$ is adjacent to any of the vertices on $e_2$. Suppose that $MIM_G$, a positive integer, is the largest…

An $acyclic$ edge coloring of a graph is a proper edge coloring such that there are no bichromatic cycles. The \emph{acyclic chromatic index} of a graph is the minimum number k such that there is an acyclic edge coloring using k colors and…

We study the maximum number of edges in an $n$ vertex graph with Colin de Verdi\`{e}re parameter no more than $t$. We conjecture that for every integer $t$, if $G$ is a graph with at least $t$ vertices and Colin de Verdi\`{e}re parameter at…

A graph $\Gamma$ is said to be universal for a class of graphs $\mathcal{H}$ if $\Gamma$ contains a copy of every $H \in \mathcal{H}$ as a subgraph. The number of edges required for a host graph $\Gamma$ to be universal for the class of…

We consider the family of graphs whose vertex set is $\mathbb{Z}^n$ where two vertices are connected by an edge when their $\ell_\infty$-distance is 1. Towards an edge isoperimetric inequality for this graph, we calculate the edge boundary…

A connected set in a graph is a subset of vertices whose induced subgraph is connected. Although counting the number of connected sets in a graph is generally a \#P-complete problem, it remains an active area of research. In 2020, Vince…

The problem of determining the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph that does not contain a 4-cycle has a rich history in extremal graph theory. Using Sidon sets constructed by Bose and Chowla, for each odd prime power $q$ we…

We study minimum degree conditions that guarantee that an $n$-vertex graph is rigid in $\mathbb{R}^d$. For small values of $d$, we obtain a tight bound: for $d = O(\sqrt{n})$, every $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $(n+d)/2 -…
