Let $G$ be a finite non abelian group. The centralizer graph of $G$ is a simple undirected graph $\Gamma_{cent}(G)$, whose vertex set consists of proper centralizers of $G$ and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their cardinalities…

If G is a finite graph, then the largest eigenvalue L of the adjacency matrix of G is a totally real algebraic integer (L is the Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue of G). We say that G is abelian if the field generated by L^2 is abelian. Given a…

A finite group is called $\psi$-divisible iff $\psi(H)|\psi(G)$ for any subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$. Here, $\psi(G)$ is the sum of element orders of $G$. For now, the only known examples of such groups are the cyclic ones of…

Let $m\ge 1$ be an integer and $G$ be a graph with $m$ edges. We say that $G$ has an antimagic orientation if $G$ has an orientation $D$ and a bijection $\tau:A(D)\rightarrow \{1,2,\ldots,m\}$ such that no two vertices in $D$ have the same…

The study of locally s-distance transitive graphs initiated by the authors in previous work, identified that graphs with a star quotient are of particular interest. This paper shows that the study of locally s-distance transitive graphs…

We introduce an idea called anti-gadgets in complexity reductions. These combinatorial gadgets have the effect of erasing the presence of some other graph fragment, as if we had managed to include a negative copy of a graph gadget. We use…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a set of positive numbers. A graph $G$ is called an $\mathcal{A}$-embeddable graph in $\mathbb{R}^d$ if the vertices of $G$ can be positioned in $\mathbb{R}^d$ so that the distance between endpoints of any edge is an…

We investigate the \textit{group irregularity strength} ($s_g(G)$) of graphs, i.e. the smallest value of $s$ such that taking any Abelian group $\gr$ of order $s$, there exists a function $f:E(G)\rightarrow \gr$ such that the sums of edge…

This paper considers the degree-diameter problem for extremal and largest known undirected circulant graphs of degree 2 to 9 of arbitrary diameter. As these graphs are vertex transitive it is possible to define their distance partition. The…

Consider an undirected graph whose edges are labeled invertibly in a group. When does every Eulerian trail from one fixed vertex to another have the same label? We give a precise structural answer to this question. Essentially, we show that…

We define a labeling $f:$ $V(G)$ $\rightarrow$ $\{1, 2, \ldots, n\}$ on a graph $G$ of order $n \geq 3$ as a \emph{$k$-distance magic} ($k$-DM) if $\sum_{w\in \partial N_k(u)}{ f(w)}$ is a constant and independent of $u\in V(G)$ where…

Let $G$ denote a finite abelian group with identity 1 and let $S$ denote an inverse-closed subset of $G \setminus {1}$, which generates $G$ and for which there exists $s \in S$, such that $\la S \setminus \{s,s^{-1}\} \ra \ne G$. In this…

If $G$ is a graph then a subgraph $H$ is $isometric$ if, for every pair of vertices $u,v$ of $H$, we have $d_H(u,v) = d_G(u,v)$ where $d$ is the distance function. We say a graph $G$ is $distance\ preserving\ (dp)$ if it has an isometric…

Let $G$ be a group and $Z(G)$ be its center. We associate a commuting graph ${\Gamma}(G)$, whose vertex set is $G\setminus Z(G)$ and two distinct vertices are adjacent if they commute. We say that ${\Gamma}(G)$ is strong $k$ star free if…

Suppose that $[n]=\left\{0,1,2,...,n\right\}$ is a set of non-negative integers and $h,k \in [n]$. The $L(h,k)$-labeling of graph $G$ is the function $l:V(G)\rightarrow[n]$ such that $\left|l(u)-l(v)\right|\geq h$ if the distance $d(u,v)$…

An edge labeling of a connected graph $G = (V, E)$ is said to be local antimagic if it is a bijection $f:E \to\{1,\ldots ,|E|\}$ such that for any pair of adjacent vertices $x$ and $y$, $f^+(x)\not= f^+(y)$, where the induced vertex label…

The distinguishing number (index) $D(G)$ ($D'(G)$) of a graph $G$ is the least integer $d$ such that $G$ has an vertex labeling (edge labeling) with $d$ labels that is preserved only by a trivial automorphism. The lexicographic product of…

An antimagic labeling of a graph $G$ is an injection from $E(G)$ to $\{1,2,\dots,|E(G)|\}$ such that all vertex sums are pairwise distinct, where the vertex sum at vertex $u$ is the sum of the labels assigned to edges incident to $u$. A…
