Graphs triangulating the $2$-sphere are generically rigid in $3$-space, due to Gluck-Dehn-Alexandrov-Cauchy. We show there is a \emph{finite} subset $A$ in $3$-space so that the vertices of each graph $G$ as above can be mapped into $A$ to…

Let G be a simple finite graph such that each vertex has an integer value and different vertices have different values. Let S be a finite non-empty set of primes. We call G an S-graph if any two vertices are connected by an edge if and only…

Given a graph G, its triangular line graph is the graph T(G) with vertex set consisting of the edges of G and adjacencies between edges that are incident in G as well as being within a common triangle. Graphs with a representation as the…

Let $G$ be a finite graph of genus $g$. Let $d$ and $r$ be non-negative integers such that the Brill-Noether number is non-negative. It is known that for some $k$ sufficiently large, the $k$-th homothetic refinement $G^{(k)}$ of $G$ admits…

We analyze a family of graphs known as banana graphs, with two marked vertices, through the lens of Hurwitz-Brill-Noether theory. As an application, we construct explicit new examples of finite graphs which are Brill-Noether general. These…

We call a pair of non-adjacent vertices in G a non-edge. Contraction of a non-edge {u, v} in G is the replacement of u and v with a single vertex z and then making all the vertices that are adjacent to u or v adjacent to z. A non-edge {u,…

We show that for any simple non-oriented graph G with at least thirteen vertices either G or its complement is intrinsically linked.

A Brill-Noether locus is a subscheme of the moduli of bundles E over a curve C defined by requiring E to have a given number of sections, or homomorphisms from another bundle. There are a number of different types, that can be treated by…

For a simple graph $G$, the $3$-distance graph, $D_3(G)$, is a graph with the vertex set $V(G)$ and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their distance is $3$ in the graph $G$. For a connected graph $G$, we provide some conditions for…

Nonlocal metric dimension ${\rm dim}_{\rm n\ell}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is introduced as the cardinality of a smallest nonlocal resolving set, that is, a set of vertices which resolves each pair of non-adjacent vertices of $G$. Graphs $G$ with…

In this (mostly) survey article, we give a synopsis of a number of results relating to Brill--Noether theory on curves and metric graphs, together with some speculations about the behavior of one-dimensional linear series on a class of…

We produce Brill-Noether general graphs in every genus, confirming a conjecture of Baker and giving a new proof of the Brill-Noether Theorem, due to Griffiths and Harris, over any algebraically closed field.

This paper shows that the Seifert volume of each closed non-trivial graph manifold is virtually positive. As a consequence, for each closed orientable prime 3-manifold $N$, the set of mapping degrees $\c{D}(M,N)$ is finite for any…

The focus of this paper is on discussion of a catalog of a class of (3, g) graphs for even girth g. A (k, g) graph is a graph with regular degree k and girth g. This catalog is compared with other known lists of (3, g) graphs such as the…

Let d_i(G) be the density of the 3-vertex i-edge graph in a graph G, i.e., the probability that three random vertices induce a subgraph with i edges. Let S be the set of all quadruples (d_0,d_1,d_2,d_3) that are arbitrary close to 3-vertex…

This article considers the class of connected 3-colored digraphs. Let $G$ be a 3-colored digraph and $A(G)$ be its adjacency matrix. $G$ is said to be non-singular (resp. singular) if $A(G)$ is a non-singular (resp. singular) matrix. A…

For a number $\ell\geq 2$, let $\mathcal{G}_{\ell}$ denote the family of graphs which have girth $2\ell+1$ and have no odd hole with length greater than $2\ell+1$. Plummer and Zha conjectured that every 3-connected and internally…

We prove two mixed versions of the Discrete Nodal Theorem of Davies et. al. [3] for bounded degree graphs, and for three-connected graphs of fixed genus $g$. Using this we can show that for a three-connected graph satisfying a certain…

We settle a problem of Havel by showing that there exists an absolute constant d such that if G is a planar graph in which every two distinct triangles are at distance at least d, then G is 3-colorable. In fact, we prove a more general…

Given a connected graph $G$, the metric (resp. edge metric) dimension of $G$ is the cardinality of the smallest ordered set of vertices that uniquely identifies every pair of distinct vertices (resp. edges) of $G$ by means of distance…
