This work re-examines a classical construction of a 2-connected (simple) graph where every intermediate graph is 2-connected before detailing an analogous construction for 3-connected graphs which requires a graph equivalence relation…
We prove that if $H$ is a subgraph of a complete multipartite graph $G$, then $H$ contains a connected component $H'$ satisfying $|E(H')||E(G)|\geq |E(H)|^2$. We use this to prove that every three-coloring of the edges of a complete graph…
To a finite, connected, unoriented graph of Betti-number g>=2 and valencies >=3 we associate a finitely summable, commutative spectral triple (in the sense of Connes), whose induced zeta functions encode the graph. This gives another…
We prove that the graphs $T\boxslash P$ have unbounded stack number and queue number $3$, where $T$ is a tree and $P$ is a path, and $\boxslash$ denotes the graph strong product but with one of the directions removed. The previous best…
In this study we consider the problem of triangulated graphs. Precisely we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a graph to be triangulated. This give an alternative characterization of triangulated graphs. Our method is based on…
In this paper, we mainly investigate $K_{1,2}$-structure-connectivity for any connected graph. Let $G$ be a connected graph with $n$ vertices, we show that $\kappa(G; K_{1,2})$ is well-defined if $diam(G)\geq 4$, or $n\equiv 1\pmod 3$, or…
In this paper, we show that projective globally $F$-regular threefolds, defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p\geq 11$, are rationally chain connected.
A bond in a graph is a minimal nonempty edge-cut. A connected graph $G$ is dual Hamiltonian if the vertex set can be partitioned into two subsets $X$ and $Y$ such that the subgraphs induced by $X$ and $Y$ are both trees. There is much…
We give a simplified version of the proofs that, outside of their isolated vertices, the complement of the enhanced power graph and of the power graph are connected of diameter at most $3$.
The line graph of a graph with signed edges carries vertex signs. A vertex-signed graph is consistent if every circle (cycle, circuit) has positive vertex-sign product. Acharya, Acharya, and Sinha recently characterized line-consistent…
It is well-known as an existence result that every 3-connected graph G=(V,E) on more than 4 vertices admits a sequence of contractions and a sequence of removal operations to K_4 such that every intermediate graph is 3-connected. We show…
A cubical polytope is a polytope with all its facets being combinatorially equivalent to cubes. We deal with the connectivity of the graphs of cubical polytopes. We first establish that, for any $d\ge 3$, the graph of a cubical $d$-polytope…
A k-connected graph such that deleting any edge / deleting any vertex / contracting any edge results in a graph which is not k-connected is called minimally / critically / contraction-critically k-connected. These three classes play a…
We give a brief survey of some known results on intrinsically linked or knotted graphs.
We prove boundedness of rationally-connected threefolds in $\mathbb P^6$ under some extra-assumptions.
The {\em disjointness graph} of a set system is a graph whose vertices are the sets, two being connected by an edge if and only if they are disjoint. It is known that the disjointness graph $G$ of any system of segments in the plane is {\em…
We classify the connected graphs with precisely three distinct eigenvalues and second largest eigenvalue at most 1.
We show that the isomorphism of 3-connected planar graphs can be decided in deterministic log-space. This improves the previously known bound UL$\cap$coUL of Thierauf and Wagner.
Let $G$ and $H$ be simple 3-connected graphs such that $G$ has an $H$-minor. An edge $e$ in $G$ is called {\it $H$-deletable} if $G\backslash e$ is 3-connected and has an $H$-minor. The main result in this paper establishes that, if $G$ has…
The generalized $k$-connectivity $\kappa_k(G)$ of a graph $G$, introduced by Chartrand et al., is a natural and nice generalization of the concept of (vertex-)connectivity. In this paper, we prove that for any two connected graphs $G$ and…
