An $(m,n)$-mixed graph generalizes the notions of oriented graphs and edge-coloured graphs to a graph object with $m$ arc types and $n$ edge types. A simple colouring of such a graph is a non-trivial homomorphism to a reflexive target. We…

In this paper, we show that the eigenvalues of certain classes of Cayley graphs are integers. The (n,k,r)-arrangement graph A(n,k,r) is a graph with all the k-permutations of an n-element set as vertices where two k-permutations are…

Let $k$ and $l$ be integers, both at least 2. A $(k,l)$-bipartite graph is an $l$-regular bipartite multigraph with coloured bipartite sets of size $k$. Define $\chi(k,l)$ and $\mu(k,l)$ to be the minimum and maximum order of automorphism…

Given a graph $G$ a set $S\subset V(G)$ is called monophonic if every vertex in $G$ lies on some induced path between two vertices in $S$. The monophonic number, $m(G)$, of $G$, which is the smallest cardinality of a monophonic set in $G$,…

The spectral radius of a graph is the largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. A minimizer graph is such that minimizes the spectral radius among all connected graphs on $n$ vertices with diameter $d$. The minimizer graphs are known for…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. We define a graph $\Gamma_{\aut}(R)$ on $ R$, with vertices elements of $R$, such that any two distinct vertices $x, y$ are adjacent if and only if there exists $\sigma \in \aut$ such that…

Strongly regular graphs are regular graphs with a constant number of common neighbours between adjacent vertices, and a constant number of common neighbours between non-adjacent vertices. These graphs have been of great interest over the…

For integers $k\geq 1$ and $n\geq 2k+1$, the Schrijver graph $S(n,k)$ has as vertices all $k$-element subsets of $[n]:=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ that contain no two cyclically adjacent elements, and an edge between any two disjoint sets. More…

In this paper, all graphs whose adjacency matrix has at most two eigenvalues (multiplicities included) different from $2$ and $-1$ are determined. These graphs conclude a class of generalized friendship graphs $F_{t,r,k}, $ which is the…

For positive integers k,n, we investigate the simplicial complex NM_k(n) of all graphs G on vertex set [n] such that every matching in G has size less than k. This complex (along with other associated cell complexes) is found to be homotopy…

Let $G$ be a connected graph on $n$ vertices and $1 \le k \le n-1$ an integer. The $k$-token graph of $G$ is the graph $F_k(G)$ whose vertices are all the $k$-subsets of vertices of $G$, two of which are adjacent whenever their symmetric…

We consider signed graphs, i.e, graphs with positive or negative signs on their edges. We determine the admissible parameters for the $\{5,6,\ldots,10\}$-regular signed graphs which have only two distinct eigenvalues. For each obtained…

The rook graph is a graph whose edges represent all the possible legal moves of the rook chess piece on a chessboard. The problem we consider is the following. Given any set $M$ containing pairs of cells such that each cell of the $m_1…

Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices and $S$ a subset of vertices of $G$; the boundary of $S$ is the set, $\partial S$, of edges of $G$ connecting $ S $ to its complement in $G$. The isoperimetric number of $G$, is the minimum of $\left|…

The $m$-neighbor complex of a graph is the simplicial complex in which faces are sets of vertices with at least $m$ common neighbors. We consider these complexes for Erdos-Renyi random graphs and find that for certain explicit families of…

We derive an asymptotic formula for the number of strongly connected digraphs with $n$ vertices and $m$ arcs (directed edges), valid for $m-n\to\infty$ as $n\to \infty$ provided $m=O(n\log n)$. This fills the gap between Wright's results…
