An oriented graph $\vec{H}$ is said to be tournament anti-Sidorenko if the homomorphism density of $\vec{H}$ in any tournament $\vec{T}$ is bounded above by the homomorphism density of $\vec{H}$ in a large uniformly random tournament. We…

The {\em bipartite-hole-number} of a graph $G$, denoted as $\widetilde\alpha(G)$, is the minimum number $k$ such that there exist integers $a$ and $b$ with $a + b = k+1$ such that for any two disjoint sets $A, B \subseteq V(G)$, there is an…

A bipartite graph on 2n vertices is bipancyclic if it contains cycles of all even lengths from 4 to 2n. In this paper we prove that the random bipartite graph $G(n,n,p)$ with $p(n)\gg n^{-2/3}$ asymptotically almost surely has the following…

Regular and distance-regular characterizations of general graphs are well-known. In particular, the spectral excess theorem states that a connected graph G is distance-regular if and only if its spectral excess (a number that can be…

Decomposable graphs are known for their tedious and complicated Markov update steps. Instead of modelling them directly, this work introduces a class of tree-dependent bipartite graphs that span the projective space of decomposable graphs.…

A graphon is said to have the $H$-property if a random undirected graph $G_n$ on $n$ nodes sampled from it has a node-wise disjoint cycle cover almost surely as $n\to\infty$. It has been shown in the earlier work that the $H$-property obeys…

This paper studies the problem of counting homomorphisms from a bipartite source graph to a bipartite target graph. An exact formula is first derived for the number of homomorphisms from a complete bipartite graph into a general bipartite…

In this paper, we investigate the structural properties of trees and bipartite graphs through the lens of topological indices and combinatorial graph theory. We focus on the First and Second Hyper-Zagreb indices, $HM_1(G)$ and $HM_2(G)$,…

We call a bipartite graph {\it homogeneous} if every finite partial automorphism which respects left and right can be extended to a total automorphism. A $(\kappa,{\lambda} )$ bipartite graph is a bipartite graph with left side of size…

A graph K is multiplicative if a homomorphism from any product G x H to K implies a homomorphism from G or from H. Hedetniemi's conjecture states that all cliques are multiplicative. In an attempt to explore the boundaries of current…

Let ${\cal H}$ denote the family of all graphs with multi-$4$-cycles and suppose that $G \in {\cal H}$. Then, $G$ is a bipartite graph with a vertex bipartition $\{V_{\alpha}, V_{\beta}\}$. We prove that for every vertex $v \in V_{\beta}$…

A result of Simonovits and S\'os states that for any fixed graph $H$ and any $\epsilon > 0$ there exists $\delta > 0$ such that if $G$ is an $n$-vertex graph with the property that every $S \subseteq V(G)$ contains $p^{e(H)} |S|^{v(H)} \pm…

Let $k$ be a positive integer and let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$. A subset $D \subseteq V(G)$ is a $k$-dominating set if every vertex outside $D$ is adjacent to at least $k$ vertices in $D$. The $k$-domination number…

Frankl's union-closed sets conjecture states that in every finite union-closed set of sets, there is an element that is contained in at least half of the member-sets (provided there are at least two members). The conjecture has an…

A graph $H$ is common if its Ramsey multiplicity, i.e., the minimum number of monochromatic copies of $H$ contained in any $2$-edge-coloring of $K_n$, is asymptotically the same as the number of monochromatic copies in the random…

Recently, Ehrenborg and Van Willenburg defined a class of bipartite graphs that correspond naturally to Ferrers diagrams, and proved several results about them. We give bijective proofs for the (already known) expressions for the number of…

Graphs that are squares under the gluing algebra arise in the study of homomorphism density inequalities such as Sidorenko's conjecture. Recent work has focused on these homomorphism density applications. This paper takes a new perspective…

It appeared recently that the classical random graph model used to represent real-world complex networks does not capture their main properties. Since then, various attempts have been made to provide accurate models. We study here a model…

An $(s,t)$-matching in a bipartite graph $G=(U,V,E)$ is a subset of the edges $F$ such that each component of $G[F]$ is a tree with at most $t$ edges and each vertex in $U$ has $s$ neighbours in $G[H]$. We give sharp conditions for a…
