The Hall number is a graph parameter closely related to the choice number. Here it is shown that the Hall numbers of the complete multipartite graphs $K(m,2,\ldots,2)$, $m\ge 2$, are equal to their choice numbers.

Since the crossing number of K_{12} is now known to be 150, it is well-known that simple counting arguments and Kleitman's parity theorem for the crossing number of K_{2n+1} combine with a specific drawing of K_{13} to show that the…

A graph is a $k$-threshold graph with thresholds $\theta_1, \theta_2, \dots, \theta_k$ if we can assign a real number $r_v$ to each vertex $v$ such that for any two distinct vertices $u$ and $v$, $uv$ is an edge if and only if the number of…

This paper studies the on-line choice number on complete multipartite graphs with independence number $m$. We give a unified strategy for every prescribed $m$. Our main result leads to several interesting consequences comparable to known…

Let $n$ and $k$ be integers with $n> k\geq1$ and $[n] = \{1, 2, ... , n\} $. The $bipartite \ Kneser \ graph$ $H(n, k)$ is the graph with the all $k$-element and all ($n-k$)-element subsets of $[n] $ as vertices, and there is an edge…

We show that for any $2$-local colouring of the edges of the balanced complete bipartite graph $K_{n,n}$, its vertices can be covered with at most~$3$ disjoint monochromatic paths. And, we can cover almost all vertices of any complete or…

The crossing number of a graph $G$ is the least number of crossings over all possible drawings of $G$. We present a structural characterization of graphs with crossing number one.

Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$ and let $k\in \{1,2,\ldots,n-1\}$. The $k$-token graph of $G$ is the graph, whose vertices are all the $k$-subsets of vertices of $G$, where two such $k$-sets are adjacent whenever their symmetric difference…

We give a characterization of the largest $2$-intersecting families of permutations of $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ and of perfect matchings of the complete graph $K_{2n}$ for all $n \geq 2$.

For integers $k\geq 1$ and $n\geq 2k+1$ the Kneser graph $K(n,k)$ has as vertices all $k$-element subsets of $[n]:=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ and an edge between any two vertices (=sets) that are disjoint. The bipartite Kneser graph $H(n,k)$ has as…

The crossing number of a graph is the minimum number of double points over all generic immersions of the graph into the plane. In this paper we investigate the behavior of crossing number under a graph transformation, called $\mathsf{\Delta…

Complete colorings have the property that any two color classes has at least an edge between them. Parameters such as the Grundy, achromatic and pseudoachromatic numbers comes from complete colorings, with some additional requirement. In…

Let $K_{r_1,\ldots,r_s}$ denote the complete multipartite graph with class sizes $r_1,\ldots,r_s$ and let $K_s$ denote the complete graph of order $s$. In 2018, Luo determined the maximum number of $K_s$ in 2-connected graphs with a given…

For any given integer $r\geqslant 3$, let $k=k(n)$ be an integer with $r\leqslant k\leqslant n$. A hypergraph is $r$-uniform if each edge is a set of $r$ vertices, and is said to be linear if two edges intersect in at most one vertex. Let…
