In this paper, we study the flip graph on the perfect matchings of a complete graph of even order. We investigate its combinatorial and spectral properties including connections to the signed reversal graph and we improve a previous upper…

The foldings of a connected graph $G$ are defined as follows. First, $G$ is a folding of itself. Let $G'$ be a graph obtained from $G$ by identifying two vertices at distance 2 in $G$. Then every folding of $G'$ is a folding of $G$. The…

Edge lengths of a graph are called flexible if there exist infinitely many non-congruent realizations of the graph in the plane satisfying these edge lengths. It has been shown recently that a graph has flexible edge lengths if and only if…

In this work, we try to enunciate the Total chromatic number of some Cayley graphs like the Cayley graph on Symmetric group, Alternating group, Dihedral group with respect to some generating sets and some other regular graphs.

The presented material is devoted to the equivalent conversion from the vertex graphs to the edge graphs. We suggest that the proved theorems solve the problem of the isomorphism of graphs, the problem of the graph's enumeration with the…

The studies on $b$-chromatic number attracted much interest since its introduction. In this paper, we discuss the $b$-chromatic number of certain classes of graphs and digraphs. The notion of a new general family of graphs called the…

Let $\mathcal{C} = \{c_1,c_2, c_3, \ldots,c_k\}$ be a certain type of proper $k$-colouring of a given graph $G$ and $\theta(c_i)$ denote the number of times a particular colour $c_i$ is assigned to the vertices of $G$. Then, the colouring…

Gcd-graphs represent an interesting and historically important class of integral graphs. Since the pioneering work of Klotz and Sander, numerous incarnations of these graphs have been explored in the literature. In this article, we define…

In this paper, we define a new domination invariant on a graph $G$, which coincides with the ordinary independent domination number of the generalized prism $G \Box K_k$, called the $k$-rainbow independent domination number and denoted by…

We introduce a variant of the well-studied sum choice number of graphs, which we call the interactive sum choice number. In this variant, we request colours to be added to the vertices' colour-lists one at a time, and so we are able to make…

Let G = (V, E) be a finite simple connected graph. We say a graph G realizes a code of the type 0^s_1 1^t_1 0^s_2 1^t_2 ... 0^s_k1^t_k if and only if G can obtained from the code by some rule. Some classes of graphs such as threshold and…

This work studies certain aspects of graphs embedded on surfaces. Initially, a colored graph model for a map of a graph on a surface is developed. Then, a concept analogous to (and extending) planar graph is introduced in the same spirit as…

A set of Pauli stings is well characterized by the graph that encodes its commutatitivity structure, i.e., by its frustration graph. This graph provides a natural interface between graph theory and quantum information, which we explore in…

Path-addition is an operation that takes a graph and adds an internally vertex-disjoint path between two vertices together with a set of supplementary edges. Path-additions are just the opposite of taking minors. We show that some classes…
