We explore properties of $3$-uniform hypergraphs $H$ without linear cycles. Our main results are that these hypergraphs must contain a vertex of strong degree at most two and must have independent sets of size at least ${2|V(H)|\over 5}$.

An eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a graph is said to be \emph{main} if the all-1 vector is not orthogonal to the associated eigenspace. In this work, we approach the main eigenvalues of some graphs. The graphs with exactly two main…

Let $G_1$ and $G_2$ be two simple connected graphs. The invariant \textit{coronal} of graph is used in order to determine the $\alpha$-eigenvalues of four different types of graph equations that are $G_1 \circ G_2, G_1\lozenge G_1$ and the…

Given a graph $H$, we investigate the $d$-regular graphs $G$ with the highest $H$-density. We reframe the problem as a continuous optimization problem on the eigenvalues of $G$ by relating injective homomorphism numbers from $H$ and…

An r-cut of a k-uniform hypergraph H is a partition of the vertex set of H into r parts and the size of the cut is the number of edges which have a vertex in each part. A classical result of Edwards says that every m-edge graph has a 2-cut…

An undirected graph is Eulerian if it is connected and all its vertices are of even degree. Similarly, a directed graph is Eulerian, if for each vertex its in-degree is equal to its out-degree. It is well known that Eulerian graphs can be…
