A graph is chordal if it contains no induced cycle of length four or more. While finite chordal graphs are precisely those admitting tree-decompositions into cliques, this fails for infinite graphs. We establish two results extending the…

In the present paper, exterior algebraic shifting and symmetric algebraic shifting of bipartite graphs and chordal graphs are studied. First, we will determine the symmetric algebraic shifted graph of complete bipartite graphs. It turns out…

The dichromatic number $\vec{\chi}(D)$ of a digraph $D$ is the least number $k$ such that the vertex set of $D$ can be partitioned into $k$ parts each of which induces an acyclic subdigraph. Introduced by Neumann-Lara in 1982, this digraph…

Let $G$ be a finite solvable group and let $\Delta(G)$ be the character degree graph of $G$. In this paper, we obtain the metric dimension of certain character degree graphs. Specifically, we calculate the metric dimension for a regular…

Conditional lower bounds for dynamic graph problems has received a great deal of attention in recent years. While many results are now known for the fully-dynamic case and such bounds often imply worst-case bounds for the partially dynamic…

In this paper we introduce and study discrete analogues of Lebesgue and Hausdorff dimensions for graphs. It turned out that they are closely related to well-known graph characteristics such as rank dimension and Prague (or…

A set $D \subseteq V$ for the graph $G=(V, E)$ is called a dominating set if any vertex $v\in V\setminus D$ has at least one neighbor in $D$. Fomin et al.[9] gave an algorithm for enumerating all minimal dominating sets with $n$ vertices in…

Minimum cost homomorphism problems can be viewed as a generalization of list homomorphism problems. They also extend two well-known graph colouring problems: the minimum colour sum problem and the optimum cost chromatic partition problem.…

Cai et al.\ proved that a toroidal graph $G$ without $6$-cycles is $5$-choosable, and proposed the conjecture that $\textsf{ch}(G) = 5$ if and only if $G$ contains a $K_{5}$ [J. Graph Theory 65 (2010) 1--15], where $\textsf{ch}(G)$ is the…

A platypus graph is a non-hamiltonian graph for which every vertex-deleted subgraph is traceable. They are closely related to families of graphs satisfying interesting conditions regarding longest paths and longest cycles, for instance…

Let $t$ be a positive real number. A graph is called \emph{$t$-tough} if the removal of any vertex set $S$ that disconnects the graph leaves at most $|S|/t$ components. The toughness of a graph is the largest $t$ for which the graph is…

Motivated by the problem of enumerating all tree decompositions of a graph, we consider in this article the problem of listing all the minimal chordal completions of a graph. In \cite{carmeli2020} (\textsc{Pods 2017}) Carmeli \emph{et al.}…

The mixed metric dimension ${\rm mdim}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the cardinality of a smallest set of vertices that (metrically) resolves each pair of elements from $V(G)\cup E(G)$. We say that $G$ is a max-mdim graph if ${\rm mdim}(G) = n(G)$.…
