Given a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices, for which $m$ is it possible to partition the edge set of the $m$-fold complete graph $mK_n$ into copies of $G$? We show that there is an integer $m_0$, which we call the \emph{partition modulus of $G$},…

A graph is closed when its vertices have a labeling by $[n]$ such that the binomial edge ideal $J_G$ has a quadratic Gr\"{o}bner basis with respect to the lexicographic order induced by $x_1 > \cdots > x_n > y_1> \cdots > y_n$. In this…

The polynomial reconstruction problem, introduced by Cvetkovi\'c in 1973, asks whether the characteristic polynomial $\phi^G$ of a graph $G$ with at least $3$ vertices can be reconstructed from the polynomial deck $\{\phi^{G \setminus…

The forgotten topological index of a graph $G$, denoted by $F(G)$, is defined as the sum of weights $d(u)^{2}+d(v)^{2}$ over all edges $uv$ of $G$ , where $d(u)$ denotes the degree of a vertex $u$. In this paper, we give sharp upper bounds…

Chemical graphs are simple undirected connected graphs, where vertices represent atoms in a molecule and edges represent chemical bonds. A degree-based topological index is a molecular descriptor used to study specific physicochemical…

Let $G$ be a graph having a vertex $v$ such that $H = G - v$ is a trivially perfect graph. We give a polynomial-time algorithm for the problem of deciding whether it is possible to add at most $k$ edges to $G$ to obtain a trivially perfect…

We consider the algebra M_k(C) of k-by-k matrices over the complex numbers and view it as a crossed product with a group G of order k by embedding G in the symmetric group S_k via the regular representation and embedding S_k in M_k(C) in…

Let $t_{i,j}$ be the coefficient of $x^iy^j$ in the Tutte polynomial $T(G;x,y)$ of a connected bridgeless and loopless graph $G$ with order $n$ and size $m$. It is trivial that $t_{0,m-n+1}=1$ and $t_{n-1,0}=1$. In this paper, we obtain…

The independence polynomial $i(G,x)$ of a graph $G$ is the generating function of the numbers of independent sets of each size. A graph of order $n$ is very well-covered if every maximal independent set has size $n/2$. Levit and Mandrescu…

We introduce a new class of algebras arising from graphs, called binomial edge rings. Given a graph $G$ on $d$ vertices with $n$ edges, the binomial edge ring of $G$ is defined to be the subalgebra of the polynomial ring with $2d$ variables…

Given a graph G, an incidence matrix N(G) is defined for the set of distinct isomorphism types of induced subgraphs of G. If Ulam's conjecture is true, then every graph invariant must be reconstructible from this matrix, even when the…

The study of the topology of polynomial maps originates from classical questions in affine geometry, such as the Jacobian Conjecture, as well as from works of Whitney, Thom, and Mather in the 1950-70s on diffeomorphism types of smooth maps.…

We introduce classes of graphs with bounded expansion as a generalization of both proper minor closed classes and degree bounded classes. Such classes are based on a new invariant, the greatest reduced average density (grad) of G with rank…

Let $G$ be a simple graph. Consider all weightings of the vertices of $G$ with real numbers whose total sum is nonnegative. How many edges of $G$ have endpoints with a nonnegative sum? We consider the minimum number of such edges over all…

A bipartite graph $G=(A,B,E)$ is ${\cal H}$-convex, for some family of graphs ${\cal H}$, if there exists a graph $H\in {\cal H}$ with $V(H)=A$ such that the set of neighbours in $A$ of each $b\in B$ induces a connected subgraph of $H$.…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite undirected graph. An edge set $E' \subseteq E$ is a {\em dominating induced matching} ({\em d.i.m.}) in $G$ if every edge in $E$ is intersected by exactly one edge of $E'$. The \emph{Dominating Induced Matching}…

Let G(V,E) be a simple graph and let X subset of V. Two vertices u and v are said to be X-visible if there exists a shortest u,v-path P such that V(P) intersection X is a subset of {u, v}. A set X is called a mutual-visibility set of G if…

The aim of this work is to obtain new inequalities for the variable symmetric division deg index $SDD_\alpha(G) = \sum_{uv \in E(G)} (d_u^\alpha/d_v^\alpha+d_v^\alpha/d_u^\alpha)$, and to characterize graphs extremal with respect to them.…

A notion of degree-coloring is introduced; it captures some, but not all properties of standard edge-coloring. We conjecture that the smallest number of colors needed for degree-coloring of a multigraph $G$ [the degree-coloring index…

As a generalization of orbit-polynomial and distance-regular graphs, we introduce the concept of a quotient-polynomial graph. In these graphs every vertex $u$ induces the same regular partition around $u$, where all vertices of each cell…
