Suppose G is an n-vertex simple graph with vertex set {v1,..., vn} and d(i), i = 1,..., n, is the degree of vertex vi in G. The ISI matrix S(G) = [sij] of G is a square matrix of order n and is defined by sij = d(i)d(j)/d(i)+d(j) if the…
The power graph $P(G)$ of a group $G$ is a simple graph with the vertex set $G$ such that two distinct vertices $u,v \in G$ are adjacent in $P(G)$ if and only if $u^m = v$ or $v^m = u$, for some $m \in \mathbb{N}$. The purpose of this paper…
Benjamini, Shinkar, and Tsur stated the following conjecture on the acquaintance time: asymptotically almost surely $AC(G) \le p^{-1} \log^{O(1)} n$ for a random graph $G \in G(n,p)$, provided that $G$ is connected. Recently, Kinnersley,…
In this paper, we introduce the concepts of positive and negative $p$-energies of graphs and investigate their behavior under edge addition. Specifically, we generalize the classical notions of positive and negative square energies to the…
We prove that in all regular robust expanders $G$ every edge is asymptotically equally likely contained in a uniformly chosen perfect matching $M$. We also show that given any fixed matching or spanning regular graph $N$ in $G$, the random…
In a 1977 paper, Steffens identified an elegant criterion for determining when a countable graph has a perfect matching. In this paper, we will investigate the proof-theoretic strength of this result and related theorems. We show that a…
The method of graphical vertex-condensation for enumerating perfect matchings of plane bipartite graph was found by Propp (Theoret. Comput. Sci. 303(2003), 267-301), and was generalized by Kuo (Theoret. Comput. Sci. 319 (2004), 29-57) and…
Consider the random process in which the edges of a graph $G$ are added one by one in a random order. A classical result states that if $G$ is the complete graph $K_{2n}$ or the complete bipartite graph $K_{n,n}$, then typically a perfect…
We establish a lower bound for the energy of a complex unit gain graph in terms of the matching number of its underlying graph, and characterize all the complex unit gain graphs whose energy reaches this bound.
A subset $S$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is called a perfectly matchable set of $G$ if the subgraph induced by $S$ contains a perfect matching. The perfectly matchable set polynomial of $G$, first made explicit by Ohsugi and Tsuchiya, is the…
We propose an efficient algorithm for matching two correlated Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi graphs with $n$ vertices whose edges are correlated through a latent vertex correspondence. When the edge density $q= n^{- \alpha+o(1)}$ for a constant $\alpha…
We study the energy per vertex in regular graphs. For every k, we give an upper bound for the energy per vertex of a k-regular graph, and show that a graph attains the upper bound if and only if it is the disjoint union of incidence graphs…
Let $G$ be a graph with $n$ non-isolated vertices and $m$ edges. The positive / negative square energies of $G$, denoted $s^+(G)$ / $s^-(G)$, are defined as the sum of squares of the positive / negative eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix…
The alignment strength of a graph matching is a quantity that gives the practitioner a measure of the correlation of the two graphs, and it can also give the practitioner a sense for whether the graph matching algorithm found the true…
For graphs F and G an F-matching in G is a subgraph of G consisting of pairwise vertex disjoint copies of F. The number of F-matchings in G is denoted by s(F,G). We show that for every fixed positive integer m and every fixed tree F, the…
In this paper we present the exact solution for the average minimum energy of the random bipartite matching model with an arbitrary finite number of elements where random paired interactions are described by independent exponential…
This paper examines the structure of the largest subgraphs of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph, $G_{n,p}$, with a given matching number. This extends a result of Erd\H{o}s and Gallai who, in 1959, gave a classification of the structures…

The energy of a graph is defined as the sum of the absolute values of all eigenvalues of the graph. Akbari et al. \cite{S. Akbari} proved that for a complete multipartite graph $K_{t_1 ,\ldots,t_k}$, if $t_i\geq 2 \ (i=1,\ldots,k)$, then…
Let $G$ be a simple undirected graph, and $G^\sigma$ be an oriented graph of $G$ with the orientation $\sigma$ and skew-adjacency matrix $S(G^\sigma)$. The skew energy of the oriented graph $G^\sigma$, denoted by $\mathcal{E}_S(G^\sigma)$,…
