The Wiener index of a connected graph is defined as the sum of the distances between all unordered pair of its vertices. In this paper, we characterize the graphs which extremize the Wiener index among all graphs on $n$ vertices with $k$…
We introduce the concept of injective category number $\text{IC}(f)$ for a continuous map $f\colon X\to~Y$, and present fundamental results concerning this numerical invariant. The value $\text{IC}(f)$ quantifies the \aspas{complexity} or…
We study a family of positive weighted well-covered graphs, which we call levelable graphs, that are related to a construction of level artinian rings in commutative algebra. A graph $G$ is levelable if there exists a weight function with…
Conduction graphs are defined here in order to elucidate at a glance the often complicated conduction behaviour of molecular graphs as ballistic molecular conductors. The graph $G^{\mathrm C}$ describes all possible conducting devices…
For an undirected, simple, finite, connected graph $G$, we denote by $V(G)$ and $E(G)$ the sets of its vertices and edges, respectively. A function $\varphi:E(G)\rightarrow \{1,...,t\}$ is called a proper edge $t$-coloring of a graph $G$,…
A graph $F$ is called a fractalizer if for all $n$ the only graphs which maximize the number of induced copies of $F$ on $n$ vertices are the balanced iterated blow ups of $F$. While the net graph is not a fractalizer, we show that the net…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $\sigma$ a partition of the set of all? primes $\Bbb{P}$, that is, $\sigma =\{\sigma_i \mid i\in I \}$, where $\Bbb{P}=\bigcup_{i\in I} \sigma_i$ and $\sigma_i\cap \sigma_j= \emptyset $ for all $i\ne j$. If $n$…
Frank Harary introduced the concept of integral sum graph. A graph $G$ is an \emph{ integral sum graph} if its vertices can be labeled with distinct integers so that $e = uv$ is an edge of $G$ if and only if the sum of the labels on…
An undirected simple graph $G=(V,E)$ is called antimagic if there exists an injective function $f:E\rightarrow\{1,\dots,|E|\}$ such that $\sum_{e\in E(u)} f(e)\neq\sum_{e\in E(v)} f(e)$ for any pair of different nodes $u,v\in V$. In a…
A mixed graph is called \emph{second kind hermitian integral}(or \emph{HS-integral}) if the eigenvalues of its Hermitian-adjacency matrix of second kind are integers. A mixed graph is called \emph{Eisenstein integral} if the eigenvalues of…
An injective $k$-edge-coloring of a graph $G$ is a mapping $\phi$: $E(G)\rightarrow\{1,2,...,k\}$, such that $\phi(e)\ne\phi(e')$ if edges $e$ and $e'$ are at distance two, or are in a triangle. The smallest integer $k$ such that $G$ has an…
A mixed graph can be seen as a type of digraph containing some edges (two opposite arcs). Here we introduce the concept of sequence mixed graphs, which is a generalization of both sequence graphs and iterated line digraphs. These structures…
A class $\mathcal{G}$ of graphs is hereditary if it is closed under taking induced subgraphs. We investigate the edge-add class, $\mathcal{G}^{\mathrm{add}}$, consisting of graphs that can be made members of $\mathcal{G}$ by adding at most…
In this paper, we consider a structural and geometric property of graphs, namely the presence of large expanders. The problem of finding such structures was first considered by Krivelevich [SIAM J. Disc. Math. 32 1 (2018)]. Here, we show…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The involutory Cayley graph $\mathcal{G}(R)$ of $R$ is defined as the graph whose vertex set is the set of elements of $R$, where two vertices $a$ and $b$ are adjacent exactly when $(a-b)^2=1$.…
The F-index of a graph $G$ is the sum of the cubes of the degrees of the vertices of $G$. In this paper, explicit expressions for the F-index of different transformation graphs of type ${{G}^{xyz}}$ with $x, y, z\in \{-, + \}$ are obtained.…
The automorphisms of a graph act naturally on its set of labeled imbeddings to produce its unlabeled imbeddings. The imbedding sum of a graph is a polynomial that contains useful information about a graph's labeled and unlabeled imbeddings.…
For a graph $G$, let $f(G)$ be the largest integer $k$ for which there exist two vertex-disjoint induced subgraphs of $G$ each on $k$ vertices, both inducing the same number of edges. We prove that $f(G) \ge n/2 - o(n)$ for every graph $G$…
This paper is dedicated to studying the following question: Is it always possible to injectively assign the weights $1,...,|E(G)|$ to the edges of any given graph $G$ (with no component isomorphic to $K_2$) so that every two adjacent…
Metric graphs are often introduced based on combinatorics, upon "associating" each edge of a graph with an interval; or else, casually "gluing" a collection of intervals at their endpoints in a network-like fashion. Here we propose an…
