An even-cycle decomposition of a graph G is a partition of E(G) into cycles of even length. Evidently, every Eulerian bipartite graph has an even-cycle decomposition. Seymour (1981) proved that every 2-connected loopless Eulerian planar…

In this paper, we consider the problem of finding a cycle of length $2k$ (a $C_{2k}$) in an undirected graph $G$ with $n$ nodes and $m$ edges for constant $k\ge2$. A classic result by Bondy and Simonovits [J.Comb.Th.'74] implies that if $m…

A recently posed question of Haggkvist and Scott's asked whether or not there exists a constant c such that if G is a graph of minimum degree ck then G contains cycles of k consecutive even lengths. In this paper we answer the question by…

A universal cycle is a compact listing of a class of combinatorial objects. In this paper, we prove the existence of universal cycles of classes of labeled graphs, including simple graphs, trees, graphs with m edges, graphs with loops,…

Let $G$ a bipartite graph with vertex bipartition $\{A,B\}$ and let $m=|E(G)|$. An $(A,B)$-uniformly ordered labeling of $G$ is a labeling $f\colon V\rightarrow [0,2m]$ which, among other conditions, requires that there exists $\lambda\in…

Krenn, Gu and Zeilinger initiated the study of PMValid edge-colourings because of its connection to a problem from quantum physics. A graph is defined to have a PMValid $k$-edge-colouring if it admits a $k$-edge-colouring (i.e. an edge…

A pancyclic graph is a simple graph containing a cycle of length $k$ for all $3\leq k\leq n$. Let $m(n)$ be the minimum number of edges of all pancyclic graphs on $n$ vertices. Exact values are given for $m(n)$ for $n\leq 37$, combining…

In 2013, Duch{\^e}ne, Kheddouci, Nowakowski and Tahraoui [4, 9] introduced a labeled version of the graph packing problem. It led to the introduction of a new parameter for graphs, the k-labeled packing number $\lambda$ k. This parameter…

In this paper, we study the existence problem for cyclic $\ell$-cycle decompositions of the graph $K_m[n]$, the complete multipartite graph with $m$ parts of size $n$, and give necessary and sufficient conditions for their existence in the…

Given a square matrix $A$ over the integers, we consider the $\mathbb{Z}$-module $M_A$ generated by the set of all matrices that are permutation-similar to $A$. Motivated by analogous problems on signed graph decompositions and block…

The Hamilton-Waterloo Problem HWP$(v;m,n;\alpha,\beta)$ asks for a 2-factorization of the complete graph $K_v$ or $K_v-I$, the complete graph with the edges of a 1-factor removed, into $\alpha$ $C_m$-factors and $\beta$ $C_n$-factors, where…

A cycle cover of a graph is a collection of cycles such that each edge of the graph is contained in at least one of the cycles. The length of a cycle cover is the sum of all cycle lengths in the cover. We prove that every bridgeless cubic…

We show that the complete symmetric digraph $K_{2m}^\ast$ admits a resolvable decomposition into directed cycles of length $m$ for all odd $m$, $5 \le m \le 49$. Consequently, $K_{n}^\ast$ admits a resolvable decomposition into directed…

Consider a complete balanced bipartite graph $K_{n,n}$ and let $K^c_{n,n}$ be an edge-colored version of $K_{n,n}$ that is obtained from $K_{n,n}$ by having each edge assigned a certain color. A subgraph $H$ of $K^c_{n,n}$ is called…

For a simple graph $G$, let $n$ and $m$ denote the number of vertices and edges in $G$, respectively. The Erd\H{o}s-Gallai theorem for paths states that in a simple $P_k$-free graph, $m \leq \frac{n(k-1)}{2}$, where $P_k$ denotes a path…

We study $M$-alternating Hamilton paths and $M$-alternating Hamilton cycles in a simple connected graph $G$ on $\nu$ vertices with a perfect matching $M$. Let $G$ be a bipartite graph, we prove that if for any two vertices $x$ and $y$ in…

For an $m$-cycle $C$, an inside $m$-cycle of $C$ is a cycle on the same vertex set, that is edge-disjoint from $C$. In an $m$-cycle system, $(\mathcal{X}, \mathcal{C})$, if inside $m$-cycles can be chosen -one for each cycle- to form…

We define the cyclic matching sequencibility of a graph to be the largest integer $d$ such that there exists a cyclic ordering of its edges so that every $d$ consecutive edges in the cyclic ordering form a matching. We show that the cyclic…
