The status of a vertex $x$ in a graph is the sum of the distances between $x$ and all other vertices. Let $G$ be a connected graph. The status sequence of $G$ is the list of the statuses of all vertices arranged in nondecreasing order. $G$…

An increasing 1,2-tree is a labeled graph formed by starting with a vertex and then repeatedly attaching a leaf to a vertex or a triangle to an edge, the labeling of the vertices corresponding to the order in which the vertices are added.…

In this paper, we introduce graceful and near graceful labellings of several families of windmills. In particular, we use Skolem-type sequences to prove (near) graceful labellings exist for windmills with $C_3$ and $C_4$ vanes, and infinite…

A circle graph is an intersection graph of a set of chords of a circle. We describe the unavoidable induced subgraphs of circle graphs with large treewidth. This includes examples that are far from the `usual suspects'. Our results imply…

For $G$ a simple, connected graph, a vertex labeling $f:V(G)\rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_+$ is called a $\textit{radio labeling of}$ $G$ if it satisfies $|f(u)-f(v)|\geq \operatorname{diam}(G) + 1 - d(u,v)$ for all distinct vertices $u,v\in…

A long-standing conjecture asserts that there exists a constant $c>0$ such that every graph of order $n$ without isolated vertices contains an induced subgraph of order at least $cn$ with all degrees odd. Scott (1992) proved that every…

The concept of graceful labels was proposed by Rosa, scholars began to study graceful labels of various graphs and obtained relevant results.Let the graph is a bipartite graceful graph, we have proved some graphs are graceful labeling in…

Let $T$ be a distinguished subset of vertices in a graph $G$. A $T$-\emph{Steiner tree} is a subgraph of $G$ that is a tree and that spans $T$. Kriesell conjectured that $G$ contains $k$ pairwise edge-disjoint $T$-Steiner trees provided…

Let $G$ be a graph and let $f$ be a positive integer-valued function on $V(G)$. In this paper, we show that if for all $S\subseteq V(G)$, $\omega(G\setminus S)<\sum_{v\in S}(f(v)-2)+2+\omega(G[S])$, then $G$ has a spanning tree $T$…

For a labeled tree on the vertex set $\set{1,2,\ldots,n}$, the local direction of each edge $(i\,j)$ is from $i$ to $j$ if $i<j$. For a rooted tree, there is also a natural global direction of edges towards the root. The number of edges…

Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices. For $i\in \{0,1\}$ and a connected graph $G$, a spanning forest $F$ of $G$ is called an $i$-perfect forest if every tree in $F$ is an induced subgraph of $G$ and exactly $i$ vertices of $F$ have even…

Let $G$ be a connected graph and $\ell : E(G) \to \mathbb{R}^+$ a length-function on the edges of $G$. The Steiner distance $\mathrm{sd}_G(A)$ of $A \subseteq V(G)$ within $G$ is the minimum length of a connected subgraph of $G$ containing…

In 1966, Cummins introduced the "tree graph": the tree graph $\mathbf{T}(G)$ of a graph $G$ (possibly infinite) has all its spanning trees as vertices, and distinct such trees correspond to adjacent vertices if they differ in just one edge,…

An identifying code of a closed-twin-free graph $G$ is a dominating set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that any two vertices in $G$ have a distinct intersection between their closed neighborhoods and $S$. It was conjectured that there exists…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ with a vertex set $V$ and an edge set $E$ is called a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG, for short) if there are a tree $T$ whose leaf set is $V$, a non-negative edge weight $w$ in $T$, and two non-negative reals…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is geometrically embeddable into a normed space $X$ when there is a mapping $\zeta: V\to X$ such that $\|\zeta(v)-\zeta(w)\|_X\leqslant 1$ if and only if $\{v,w\}\in E$, for all distinct $v,w\in V$. Our result is the…

A labeled oriented tree is called injective if each generator occurs at most once as an edge label. We show that injective labeled oriented trees are aspherical. The proof relies on a new relative asphericity test based on a lemma of…
