A graph is Hamiltonian if it contains a cycle passing through every vertex. One of the cornerstone results in the theory of random graphs asserts that for edge probability $p \gg \frac{\log n}{n}$, the random graph $G(n,p)$ is…

Given a graph $G$, a subset $S \subseteq V(G)$ is \textit{cycle convex}, if for any vertex $v \in V(G) \setminus S$, the induced subgraph, $G[S \cup \{v\}]$ cannot form a cycle containing the vertex $v$. The \textit{exchange number} of $G$,…

In an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$, we say $(A,B)$ is a pair of perfectly matched sets if $A$ and $B$ are disjoint subsets of $V$ and every vertex in $A$ (resp. $B$) has exactly one neighbor in $B$ (resp. $A$). The size of a pair of perfectly…

A graph $H$ is said to be common if the number of monochromatic labelled copies of $H$ in a red/blue edge colouring of a large complete graph is asymptotically minimized by a random colouring with an equal proportion of each colour. We…

A well-studied geometric object in combinatorial optimization is the perfect matching polytope of a graph $G$. In any investigation concerning the perfect matching polytope, one may assume that $G$ is matching covered --- that is, it is a…

This paper defines, for each graph $G$, a flag vector $fG$. The flag vectors of the graphs on $n$ vertices span a space whose dimension is $p(n)$, the number of partitions on $n$. The analogy with convex polytopes indicates that the linear…

Let $H$ be a graph on $h$ vertices. The number of induced copies of $H$ in a graph $G$ is denoted by $i_H(G)$. Let $i_H(n)$ denote the maximum of $i_H(G)$ taken over all graphs $G$ with $n$ vertices. Let $f(n,h) = \Pi_{i}^h a_i$ where…

Let $G$ be a graph with a vertex set $V$. The graph $G$ is path-proximinal if there are a semimetric $d \colon V \times V \to [0, \infty[$ and disjoint proximinal subsets of the semimetric space $(V, d)$ such that $V = A \cup B$, and…

Let $G$ be a graph with $n$ vertices, and let $A(G)$ and $D(G)$ denote respectively the adjacency matrix and the degree matrix of $G$. Define $$ A_{\alpha}(G)=\alpha D(G)+(1-\alpha)A(G) $$ for any real $\alpha\in [0,1]$. The collection of…

We study the random graph G_{n,\lambda/n} conditioned on the event that all vertex degrees lie in some given subset S of the non-negative integers. Subject to a certain hypothesis on S, the empirical distribution of the vertex degrees is…

A maximal independent set in a graph $G$ is an independent set that cannot be extended to a larger independent set by adding any vertex from $G$. This paper investigates the problem of determining the maximum number of maximal independent…

A graph $G$ is \emph{equimatchable} if every maximal matching of $G$ has the same cardinality. We are interested in equimatchable graphs such that the removal of any edge from the graph preserves the equimatchability. We call an…

In this paper, we introduce a method called graph fusion embedding, designed for multi-graph embedding with shared vertex sets. Under the framework of supervised learning, our method exhibits a remarkable and highly desirable synergistic…

In a recent paper, we studied the interaction between the automorphism group of a graph and its Tutte polynomial. More precisely, we proved that certain symmetries of graphs are clearly reflected by their Tutte polynomials. The purpose of…

A dominating set of a graph $G$ is a set $S \subseteq V(G)$ such that every vertex in $V(G) \setminus S$ has a neighbor in $S$, where two vertices are neighbors if they are adjacent. A secure dominating set of $G$ is a dominating set $S$ of…

Let $G$ be a graph and $\mathcal{H}$ be a hypergraph both on the same vertex set. We say that a hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ is a \emph{Berge}-$G$ if there is a bijection $f : E(G) \rightarrow E(\mathcal{H})$ such that for $e \in E(G)$ we have…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite, connected graph. We consider a greedy selection of vertices: given a list of vertices $x_1, \dots, x_k$, take $x_{k+1}$ to be any vertex maximizing the sum of distances to the existing vertices and iterate: we…

A {\it graph product} $G$ on a graph $\Gamma$ is a group defined as follows: For each vertex $v$ of $\Gamma$ there is a corresponding non-trivial group $G_v$. The group $G$ is the quotient of the free product of the $G_v$ by the commutation…

Given a graph property $\mathcal{P}$, it is interesting to determine the typical structure of graphs that satisfy $\mathcal{P}$. In this paper, we consider monotone properties, that is, properties that are closed under taking subgraphs.…

Let $G$ be a large (simple, unlabeled) dense graph on $n$ vertices. Suppose that we only know, or can estimate, the empirical distribution of the number of subgraphs $F$ that each vertex in $G$ participates in, for some fixed small graph…
