We give a combinatorial characterization of graphs whose normalized Laplacian has three distinct eigenvalues. Strongly regular graphs and complete bipartite graphs are examples of such graphs, but we also construct more exotic families of…
A mixed graph is cospectral to its converse, with respect to the usual adjacency matrices. Hence, it is easy to see that a mixed graph whose eigenvalues occur uniquely, up to isomorphism, must be isomorphic to its converse. It is therefore…
We investigate the structure of two-dimensional partial cubes, i.e., of isometric subgraphs of hypercubes whose vertex set defines a set family of VC-dimension at most 2. Equivalently, those are the partial cubes which are not contractible…
A graph $G$ is $H$-free if it does not contain an induced subgraph isomorphic to $H$. The study of the typical structure of $H$-free graphs was initiated by Erd\H{o}s, Kleitman and Rothschild, who have shown that almost all $C_3$-free…
We report our experiments in identifying large bipartite subgraphs of simple connected graphs which are based on the sign pattern of eigenvectors belonging to the extremal eigenvalues of different graph matrices: adjacency, signless…
We give a general construction leading to different non-isomorphic families $\Gamma_{n,q}(\K)$ of connected $q$-regular semisymmetric graphs of order $2q^{n+1}$ embedded in $\PG(n+1,q)$, for a prime power $q=p^h$, using the linear…
This paper gives a tight upper bound on the spectral radius of the signless Laplacian of graphs of given order and clique number. More precisely, let G be a graph of order n, let A be its adjacency matrix, and let D be the diagonal matrix…
Given a finite simple graph $\cG$ with $n$ vertices, we can construct the Cayley graph on the symmetric group $S_n$ generated by the edges of $\cG$, interpreted as transpositions. We show that, if $\cG$ is complete multipartite, the…
The classical problem of characterizing the graphs with bounded eigenvalues may date back to the work of Smith in 1970. Especially, the research on graphs with smallest eigenvalues not less than $-2$ has attracted widespread attention.…
Regular and distance-regular characterizations of general graphs are well-known. In particular, the spectral excess theorem states that a connected graph G is distance-regular if and only if its spectral excess (a number that can be…
Bollob\'{a}s and Scott [5] conjectured that every graph $G$ has a balanced bipartite spanning subgraph $H$ such that for each $v\in V(G)$, $d_H(v)\ge (d_G(v)-1)/2$. In this paper, we show that every graphic sequence has a realization for…
We prove two mixed versions of the Discrete Nodal Theorem of Davies et. al. [3] for bounded degree graphs, and for three-connected graphs of fixed genus $g$. Using this we can show that for a three-connected graph satisfying a certain…
Recently, Alon, Cambie, and Kang introduced asymmetric list coloring of bipartite graphs, where the size of each vertex's list depends on its part. For complete bipartite graphs, we fix the list sizes of one part and consider the resulting…
Bipartite graphs are a fundamental concept in graph theory with diverse applications. A graph is bipartite iff it contains no odd cycles, a characteristic that has many implications in diverse fields ranging from matching problems to the…
Let $G$ be an unmixed bipartite graph of dimension $d-1$. Assume that $K_{n,n}$, with $n\ge 2$, is a maximal complete bipartite subgraph of $G$ of minimum dimension. Then $G$ is Cohen-Macaulay in codimension $d-n+1$. This generalizes a…
We prove that random $\mathbb{Z}$-homomorphisms on weakly expanding bipartite graphs exhibit a strong "flatness" phenomenon. Extending prior work of Peled, Samotij, and Yehudayoff for expanders, we first show that on any bipartite $(n, d,…
A vertex of a graph is bisimplicial if the set of its neighbors is the union of two cliques; a graph is quasi-line if every vertex is bisimplicial. A recent result of Chudnovsky and Seymour asserts that every non-empty even-hole-free graph…
Let p(k) denote the partition function of k. For each k >= 2, we describe a list of p(k)-1 quasirandom properties that a k-uniform hypergraph can have. Our work connects previous notions on linear hypergraph quasirandomness of…
Shrub-depth and rank-depth are related graph parameters that are dense analogs of tree-depth. We prove that for every positive integer $t$, every graph of sufficiently large rank-depth contains a pivot-minor isomorphic to a path on $t$…
We consider a bipartite distance-regular graph $G$ with diameter $D$ at least 4 and valency $k$ at least 3. We obtain upper and lower bounds for the local eigenvalues of $G$ in terms of the intersection numbers of $G$ and the eigenvalues of…
