We introduces the umodules, a generalisation of the notion of graph module. The theory we develop captures among others undirected graphs, tournaments, digraphs, and $2-$structures. We show that, under some axioms, a unique decomposition…
We consider the problem of decomposing the edges of a directed graph into as few paths as possible. There is a natural lower bound for the number of paths needed in an edge decomposition of a directed graph $D$ in terms of its degree…
We define and investigate properties of universal operator algebras of directed graphs. Results include free products decomposition and continuity of the construction with respect to direct limits. Lastly we prove some K-theoretic results…
In this paper, various kinds of invariants of directed graphs are summarized. In the first topic, the invariant w(G) for a directed graph G is introduced, which is primarily defined by S. Chen and X.M. Chen to solve a problem of weak…
We introduce a new method for decomposing the edge set of a graph, and use it to replace the Regularity lemma of Szemer\'edi in some graph embedding problems. An algorithmic version is also given.
We consider the problem of decomposing a given (di)graph into paths of length 2 with the additional restriction that no two such paths may have more than one vertex in common. We establish its NP-hardness by a reduction from 3-SAT,…
We propose a strengthening of the conclusion in Tur\'an's (3,4)-conjecture in terms of algebraic shifting, and show that its analogue for graphs does hold. In another direction, we generalize the Mantel-Tur\'an theorem by weakening its…
Adjacency polytopes, a.k.a. symmetric edge polytopes, associated with undirected graphs have been defined and studied in several seemingly independent areas including number theory, discrete geometry, and dynamical systems. In particular,…
A paradigm that was successfully applied in the study of both pure and algorithmic problems in graph theory can be colloquially summarized as stating that "any graph is close to being the disjoint union of expanders". Our goal in this paper…
Graph decompositions are the natural generalisation of tree decompositions where the decomposition tree is replaced by a genuine graph. Recently they found theoretical applications in the theory of sparsity, topological graph theory,…
We consider the following problem for oriented graphs and digraphs: Given an oriented graph (digraph) $G$, does it contain an induced subdivision of a prescribed digraph $D$? The complexity of this problem depends on $D$ and on whether $G$…
The presented material is devoted to the equivalent conversion from the vertex graphs to the edge graphs. We suggest that the proved theorems solve the problem of the isomorphism of graphs, the problem of the graph's enumeration with the…
In this thesis we consider ordered graphs (that is, graphs with a fixed linear ordering on their vertices). We summarize and further investigations on the number of edges an ordered graph may have while avoiding a fixed forbidden ordered…
Directed graphs have long been used to gain understanding of the structure of semigroups, and recently the structure of directed graph semigroups has been investigated resulting in a characterization theorem and an analog of Fruct's…
We consider a natural generalisation of Tur\'an's forbidden subgraph problem and the Ruzsa-Szemer\'edi problem by studying the maximum number $ex_F(n,G)$ of edge-disjoint copies of a fixed graph $F$ can be placed on an $n$-vertex ground set…
After a brief review of the key theorems concerning recurrent sequences, we give an explicit computation of the inverse of the Vandermonde matrix. This will then be used to derive sub-exponential decay error terms in the ergodic theorem of…
The present article is an exposition of a theory of discrete convex functions on certain graph structures, developed by the author in recent years. This theory is a spin-off of discrete convex analysis by Murota, and is motivated by…
In this paper we continue the study of a natural generalization of Tur\'an's forbidden subgraph problem and the Ruzsa-Szemer\'edi problem. Let $ex_F(n,G)$ denote the maximum number of edge-disjoint copies of a fixed simple graph $F$ that…
We study triangle decompositions of graphs. We consider constructions of classes of graphs where every edge lies on a triangle and the addition of the minimum number of multiple edges between already adjacent vertices results in a strongly…
The Tur\'an problem asks for the largest number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph not containing a fixed forbidden subgraph $F$. We construct a new family of graphs not containing $K_{s,t}$, for $t= C^s$, with $\Omega(n^{2-1/s})$ edges…
