A graph $G$ is a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG) if there exists an edge-weighted tree and an interval $I$, such that each leaf of the tree is a vertex of the graph, and there is an edge $\{ x, y \}$ in $G$ if and only if the weight of…
The Ramsey number for the pair of graphs $\mathbb{K}_{1,n}$ (star) versus $W_{m}$ (wheel) has been extensively studied. In contrast, the Ramsey number of $\mathbb{K}_{2,n}$ versus the wheel is not yet explored due to the bit more structural…
We study structural conditions in dense graphs that guarantee the existence of vertex-spanning substructures such as Hamilton cycles. It is easy to see that every Hamiltonian graph is connected, has a perfect fractional matching and,…
The wheel $W_{k}$ is the graph on $k+1$ vertices consisting of a vertex joined to a cycle of length $k$, and we say that $W_k$ is an even wheel if $k$ is even. Mao, Wang, Magnant, Schiermeyer proved that the Ramsey number of $W_{2n}$ is…
We introduce an evolving-plane ansatz for the explicit construction of entire minimal graphs of dimension $n$ ($n\geq 3$) and codimension $m$ ($m\geq 2$), for any odd integer $n$. Under this ansatz, the minimal surface system reduces to the…
Two central topics of study in combinatorics are the so-called evolution of random graphs, introduced by the seminal work of Erd\H{o}s and R\'enyi, and the family of $H$-free graphs, that is, graphs which do not contain a subgraph…
It is shown that there exists a sequence of 3-regular graphs $\{G_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ and a Hadamard space $X$ such that $\{G_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ forms an expander sequence with respect to $X$, yet random regular graphs are not expanders with…
For any positive integer $m$, the complete graph on $2^{2m}(2^m+2)$ vertices is decomposed into $2^m+1$ commuting strongly regular graphs, which give rise to a symmetric association scheme of class $2^{m+2}-2$. Furthermore, the…
We improve the upper bound for diagonal Ramsey numbers to \[R(k+1,k+1)\le\exp(-c(\log k)^2)\binom{2k}{k}\] for $k\ge 3$. To do so, we build on a quasirandomness and induction framework for Ramsey numbers introduced by Thomason and extended…
For every constant $d \geq 3$ and $\epsilon > 0$, we give a deterministic $\mathrm{poly}(n)$-time algorithm that outputs a $d$-regular graph on $\Theta(n)$ vertices that is $\epsilon$-near-Ramanujan; i.e., its eigenvalues are bounded in…
In this paper, we determine the bound of the valency of the odd circulant graph which guarantees to be a Ramanujan graph for each fixed number of vertices. In almost of the cases, the bound coincides with the trivial bound, which comes from…
Thomassen [Problem 1 in Factorizing regular graphs, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 141 (2020), 343-351] asked whether every $r$-edge-connected $r$-regular graph of even order has $r-2$ pairwise disjoint perfect matchings. We show that this is…
Motivated by very large-scale communication networks, we newly introduce exponentiation of graphs. Using the exponential operation on graphs, we can construct various graphs of multi-exponential order with logarithmic diameter. We show that…
An explicit construction of infinite sequences of strongly regular digraphs with parameter sets $((v+(2^{n+1}-4)t)2^{n-1}, k+(2^n-2)t, t, \lambda, t)$ is described. A computer program was used to find the initial digraphs. The remaining…
We prove that every graph of rankwidth at least $72r$ contains an induced subgraph whose minimum balanced cutrank is at least $r$, which implies a vertex subset where every balanced separation has $\mathbb{F}_2$-cutrank at least $r$. This…
In this paper, we consider an extension of cycle-complete graph Ramsey numbers to Berge cycles in hypergraphs: for $k \geq 2$, a {\em non-trivial Berge $k$-cycle} is a family of sets $e_1,e_2,\dots,e_k$ such that $e_1 \cap e_2, e_2 \cap…
We give results concerning two problems on the recently introduced \textit{flip colourings of graphs}. For positive integers $b, r$ with $b < r$, we say that a $b + r$ regular graph is a $(b,r)$-\textit{flip graph} if there exists a…
We consider the problem of stretching pseudolines in a planar straight-line drawing to straight lines while preserving the straightness and the combinatorial embedding of the drawing. We answer open questions by Mchedlidze et al. by showing…
Classes of graphs with bounded expansion are a generalization of both proper minor closed classes and degree bounded classes. Such classes are based on a new invariant, the greatest reduced average density (grad) of G with rank r,…
This short note proves that every incomplete $k$-list-critical graph has average degree at least $k-1 + \frac{k-3}{k^2-2k+2}$. This improves the best known bound for $k = 4,5,6$. The same bound holds for online $k$-list-critical graphs.
