In this short note, we prove that for \beta < 1/5 every graph G with n vertices and n^{2-\beta} edges contains a subgraph G' with at least cn^{2-2\beta} edges such that every pair of edges in G' lie together on a cycle of length at most 8.…

Without imposing restrictions on a weighted graph's arc lengths, symmetry structures cannot be expected. But, they exist. To find them, the graphs are decomposed into a component that dictates all closed path properties (e.g., shortest and…

We extend to infinite graphs the matroidal characterization of finite graph duality, that two graphs are dual iff they have complementary spanning trees in some common edge set. The naive infinite analogue of this fails. The key in an…

Hyperbolic numbers are a variation of complex numbers, but their dynamics is quite different. The hyperbolic Mandelbrot set for quadratic functions over hyperbolic numbers is simply a filled square, and the filled Julia set for hyperbolic…

Let $\mathcal{G}_{\alpha}$ be a hereditary graph class (i.e, every subgraph of $G_{\alpha}\in \mathcal{G}_{\alpha}$ belongs to $\mathcal{G}_{\alpha}$) such that every graph $G_{\alpha}$ in $\mathcal{G}_{\alpha}$ has minimum degree at most…

We study different geometric properties on infinite graphs, related to the weak-type boundedness of the Hardy-Littlewood maximal averaging operator. In particular, we analyze the connections between the doubling condition, having finite…

We show that the eccentricities (and thus the centrality indices) of all vertices of a $\delta$-hyperbolic graph $G=(V,E)$ can be computed in linear time with an additive one-sided error of at most $c\delta$, i.e., after a linear time…

In this note, we prove that all cop-win graphs G in the game in which the robber and the cop move at different speeds s and s' with s'<s, are \delta-hyperbolic with \delta=O(s^2). We also show that the dependency between \delta and s is…

We characterise hyperbolic groups in terms of quasigeodesics in the Cayley graph forming regular languages. We also obtain a quantitative characterisation of hyperbolicity of geodesic metric spaces by the non-existence of certain local…

These notes concern aspects of various graphs whose vertex set is a group $G$ and whose edges reflect group structure in some way (so that they are invariant under the action of the automorphism group of $G$). The graphs I will discuss are…

We say that a graph is intrinsically non-trivial if every spatial embedding of the graph contains a non-trivial spatial subgraph. We prove that an intrinsically non-trivial graph is intrinsically linked, namely every spatial embedding of…

A graph is strongly $\Z_{\ell}$-connected if for each boundary function $\beta: V(G)\mapsto \Z_{\ell}$ with $\beta(v) \equiv d(v) \pmod{2}$ for every vertex $v$ and $\sum_{v \in V(G)} \beta(v) \equiv 0 \pmod{2\ell}$, there exists an…

A graph homomorphism is a vertex map which carries edges from a source graph to edges in a target graph. The instances of the Weighted Maximum H-Colourable Subgraph problem (MAX H-COL) are edge-weighted graphs G and the objective is to find…

We introduce a taxonomy of interaction types and show that graphs are focal hypergraphs: every graph is canonically a focal hypergraph via its closed neighbourhood structure, and every graph dynamical model is a special case of the general…

A proper vertex coloring of a graph is a mapping of its vertices on a set of colors, such that two adjacent vertices are not mapped to the same color. This constraint may be interpreted in terms of the distance between to vertices and so a…

It is proved that if $G$ is a $t$-tough graph of order $n$ and minimum degree $\delta$ with $t>1$ then either $G$ has a cycle of length at least $\min\{n,2\delta+5\}$ or $G$ is the Petersen graph.

In this paper, we propose a characterization of chordal bipartite graphs and an efficient enumeration algorithm for chordal bipartite induced subgraphs. A chordal bipartite graph is a bipartite graph without induced cycles with length six…

If a graph is in bridge position in a 3-manifold so that the graph complement is irreducible and boundary irreducible, we generalize a result of Bachman and Schleimer to prove that the complexity of a surface properly embedded in the…

We show that for any surface of genus at least 3 equipped with any choice of framing, the graph of non-separating curves with winding number 0 with respect to the framing is hierarchically hyperbolic but not Gromov hyperbolic. We also…

We show that if X is a minimal length carrier graph in a hyperbolic 3-manifold, M, then if X contains a sufficiently short edge, it must contain a short circuit, as well. The meaning of "short" depends only on the rank of the fundamental…
