A tree $T$ in an edge-colored graph is a \emph{proper tree} if any two adjacent edges of $T$ are colored with different colors. Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$ and $k$ be a fixed integer with $2\leq k\leq n$. For a vertex set $S\subseteq…

Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ and a colouring $f:E\mapsto \mathbb N$, the induced colour of a vertex $v$ is the sum of the colours at the edges incident with $v$. If all the induced colours of vertices of $G$ are distinct, the colouring is called…

For a group $\Gamma$, a $\Gamma$-labelled graph is an undirected graph $G$ where every orientation of an edge is assigned an element of $\Gamma$ so that opposite orientations of the same edge are assigned inverse elements. A path in $G$ is…

Generalized integer splines on a graph $G$ with integer edge weights are integer vertex labelings such that if two vertices share an edge in $G$, the vertex labels are congruent modulo the edge weight. We introduce collapsing operations…

A {\it universal labeling} of a graph $G$ is a labeling of the edge set in $G$ such that in every orientation $\ell$ of $G$ for every two adjacent vertices $v$ and $u$, the sum of incoming edges of $v$ and $u$ in the oriented graph are…

We address the induced matching enumeration problem. An edge set $M$ is an induced matching of a graph $G =(V,E)$. The enumeration of matchings are widely studied in literature, but the induced matching has not been paid much attention. A…

Let $ir(G)$ and $\gamma(G)$ be the irredundance number and the domination number of a graph $G$, respectively. A graph $G$ is called irredundance perfect if $ir(H)=\gamma(H)$ for every induced subgraph $H$ of $G$. The subclass of $P_6$-free…

Let $G$ be a group. Associate a directed graph $\vec{E}(G)$ (called the Engel digraph of $G$) with $G$ whose vertex set is $G$, with an arc $(x,y)$ if $[y, {}_k x]=1$ for some positive integer $k$, where $[y,{}_kx]$ is the iterated…

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…

Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, a subset $X$ of $V$ is an interval of $G$ provided that for any $a, b\in X$ and $ x\in V \setminus X$, $\{a,x\}\in E$ if and only if $\{b,x\}\in E$. For example, $\emptyset$, $\{x\}(x\in V)$ and $V$ are intervals of…

A mapping $l : E(G) \rightarrow A$, where $A$ is an abelian group which written additively, is called a labeling of the graph $G$. For every positive integer $h \geqslant 2$, a graph $G$ is said to be zero-sum $h$-magic if there is an edge…

The independent domination number $i(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a maximal independent set of $G$, also called an $i(G)$-set. The $i$-graph of $G$, denoted $\mathcal{I}(G)$, is the graph whose vertices correspond to the…

A set $S$ of vertices in a graph $G = (V, E)$ is called {\em cycle independent} if the induced subgraph $\langle S\rangle$ is acyclic, and called {\em odd-cycle indepdendet} if $\langle S\rangle$ is bipartite. A set $S$ is {\em cycle…

Let $G$ be a graph that admits a perfect matching. A {\sf forcing set} for a perfect matching $M$ of $G$ is a subset $S$ of $M$, such that $S$ is contained in no other perfect matching of $G$. This notion originally arose in chemistry in…

Let T=(V,E) be a tree with vertex set V and edge set E. A graceful labelling f of T is an injective function f from V into {0, 1, ..., |E|} such that if edge uv is assigned the label g(uv)=|f(u)-f(v)| then the function g from E into {1,…

Let ${\cal F}$ be a family of graphs. For a graph $G$, the {\em ${\cal F}$-packing number}, denoted $\nu_{{\cal F}}(G)$, is the maximum number of pairwise edge-disjoint elements of ${\cal F}$ in $G$. A function $\psi$ from the set of…

A graph is called dominating if its vertices can be labelled with integers in such a way that for every function f: omega-> omega the graph contains a ray whose sequence of labels eventually exceeds f. We obtain a characterization of these…

Motivated by the definition of linear coloring on simplicial complexes, recently introduced in the context of algebraic topology \cite{Civan}, and the framework through which it was studied, we introduce the linear coloring on graphs. We…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph of size $m$ and $L$ a set of $m$ distinct real numbers. An $L$-labeling of $G$ is a bijection $\phi: E \rightarrow L$. We say that $\phi$ is an antimagic $L$-labeling if the induced vertex sum $\phi_+: V…

A graph is intrinsically projectively linked (IPL) if its every embedding in projective space contains a nonsplit link. Some minor-minimal IPL graphs have been found previously. We determine that no minor-minimal IPL graphs on 16 edges…
