The subgraph number of a vertex in a graph is defined as the number of connected subgraphs containing that vertex. The graph and its vertex which correspond to the minimum subgraph number among all graphs on $n$ vertices and $k$ cut…

In this paper we prove that the inductively defined graph dimension has a simple additive property under the join operation. The dimension of the join of two simple graphs is one plus the sum of the dimensions of the component graphs:…

In this paper we consider aspects of geometric observability for hypergraphs, extending our earlier work from the uniform to the nonuniform case. Hypergraphs, a generalization of graphs, allow hyperedges to connect multiple nodes and…

A \textit{rainbow subgraph} of an edge-colored graph is a subgraph whose edges have distinct colors. The \textit{color degree} of a vertex $v$ is the number of different colors on edges incident to $v$. We show that if $n$ is large enough…

We revisit the classical question of the relationship between the diameter of a graph and its expansion properties. One direction is well understood: expander graphs exhibit essentially the lowest possible diameter. We focus on the reverse…

The three subgraphs of a connected graph induced by the center, annulus and periphery are called its metric subgraphs. The main results are as follows. (1) There exists a graph of order $n$ whose metric subgraphs are all paths if and only…

For a graph G, its rth power G^r has the same vertex set as G, and has an edge between any two vertices within distance r of each other in G. We give a lower bound for the number of edges in the rth power of G in terms of the order of G and…

A graph is called (generically) rigid in $\mathbb{R}^d$ if, for any choice of sufficiently generic edge lengths, it can be embedded in $\mathbb{R}^d$ in a finite number of distinct ways, modulo rigid transformations. Here we deal with the…

A segment representation of a graph is an assignment of line segments in 2D to the vertices in such a way that two segments intersect if and only if the corresponding vertices are adjacent. Not all graphs have such segment representations,…

We establish tight lower and upper bounds on the number of edges in traceable graphs in several classes of dense graphs. A graph is traceable if it has a Hamiltonian path. We show that the bound is: - quadratic for the class of graphs of…

The bloom of complex network study, in particular, with respect to scale-free ones, is considerably triggering the research of scale-free graph itself. Therefore, a great number of interesting results have been reported in the past,…

We determine the maximum number of edges that a planar graph can have as a function of its maximum degree and matching number.

The average distance of a vertex $v$ of a connected graph $G$ is the arithmetic mean of the distances from $v$ to all other vertices of $G$. The proximity $\pi(G)$ and the remoteness $\rho(G)$ of $G$ are the minimum and the maximum of the…

The metric dimension of non-component graph, associated to a finite vector space, is determined. It is proved that the exchange property holds for resolving sets of the graph, except a special case. Some results are also related to an…

An almost self-centered graph is a connected graph of order $n$ with exactly $n-2$ central vertices, and an almost peripheral graph is a connected graph of order $n$ with exactly $n-1$ peripheral vertices. We determine (1) the maximum girth…

Nonlocal metric dimension ${\rm dim}_{\rm n\ell}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is introduced as the cardinality of a smallest nonlocal resolving set, that is, a set of vertices which resolves each pair of non-adjacent vertices of $G$. Graphs $G$ with…

A split graph is a graph whose vertex set can be partitioned into a clique and an independent set. A split comparability graph is a split graph which is transitively orientable. In this work, we characterize split comparability graphs in…

Consider a graph $G$ drawn on a fixed surface, and assign to each vertex a list of colors of size at least two if $G$ is triangle-free and at least three otherwise. We prove that we can give each vertex a color from its list so that each…

Over the last 30 years, researchers have investigated connections between dimension for posets and planarity for graphs. Here we extend this line of research to the structural graph theory parameter tree-width by proving that the dimension…

Let $G$ be a finite, simple connected graph. The average distance of a vertex $v$ of $G$ is the arithmetic mean of the distances from $v$ to all other vertices of $G$. The remoteness $\rho(G)$ of $G$ is the maximum of the average distances…
