Link prediction in graphs is a task that has been widely investigated. It has been applied in various domains such as knowledge graph completion, content/item recommendation, social network recommendations and so on. The initial focus of…

The generalized $k$-connectivity $\kappa_k(G)$ of a graph $G$, introduced by Hager in 1985, is a natural generalization of the concept of connectivity $\kappa(G)$, which is just for $k=2$. Total graph is generalized line graph and a large…

In this work, for the given adjacency matrix of a graph, we present an algorithm which checks the connectivity of a graph and computes all of its connected components. Also, it is mathematically proved that the algorithm presents all the…

Given a finite, simple graph $G$, the $k$-component order edge connectivity of $G$ is the minimum number of edges whose removal results in a subgraph for which every component has order at most $k-1$. In general, determining the…

Every large $k$-connected graph-minor induces a $k$-tangle in its ambient graph. The converse holds for $k\le 3$, but fails for $k\ge 4$. This raises the question whether `$k$-connected' can be relaxed to obtain a characterisation of…

The presented work focuses on problems from determinant theory, set theory and topology. The term graph is the binding element that connects these problems. Graphs are distinguished by their geometrical simplicity, which helps in showing…

In this paper we consider Contact graphs of Paths on a Grid (CPG graphs), i.e. graphs for which there exists a family of interiorly disjoint paths on a grid in one-to-one correspondence with their vertex set such that two vertices are…

In this paper, we introduce super-minimally $k$-connected graphs, those $k$-connected graphs in which no proper subgraph is $k$-connected. For $k$ greater than or equal to three, this class lies strictly between the classes of minimally…

In general graph theory, the only relationship between vertices are expressed via the edges. When the vertices are embedded in an Euclidean space, the geometric relationships between vertices and edges can be interesting objects of study.…

A graph is k-linked if any k disjoint vertex-pairs can be joined by k disjoint paths. We improve a lower bound on the linkedness of polytopes slightly, which results in exact values for the minimal linkedness of 7-, 10- and 13-dimensional…

In this paper, we present some new results describing connections between the spectrum of a regular graph and its generalized connectivity, toughness, and the existence of spanning trees with bounded degree.

We construct a family of rings. To a plane diagram of a tangle we associate a complex of bimodules over these rings. Chain homotopy equivalence class of this complex is an invariant of the tangle. On the level of Grothendieck groups this…

The L-intersection graphs are the graphs that have a representation as intersection graphs of axis parallel shapes in the plane. A subfamily of these graphs are {L, |, --}-contact graphs which are the contact graphs of axis parallel L, |,…

In this study we consider the problem of triangulated graphs. Precisely we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a graph to be triangulated. This give an alternative characterization of triangulated graphs. Our method is based on…

This study investigates the properties of the 3-token graph derived from path graphs, with a particular focus on its structural characteristics and key attributes. We analyze how the 3-token graph is constructed from path graphs and explore…

The generalized $k$-edge-connectivity $\lambda_k(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a generalization of the concept of edge-connectivity. The lexicographic product of two graphs $G$ and $H$, denoted by $G\circ H$, is an important graph product. In this…

The generalized $k$-connectivity $\kappa_k(G)$ of a graph $G$ was introduced by Hager before 1985. As its a natural counterpart, we introduced the concept of generalized edge-connectivity $\lambda_k(G)$, recently. In this paper we summarize…

Contraction of an edge merges its end points into a new vertex which is adjacent to each neighbor of the end points of the edge. An edge in a $k$-connected graph is {\em contractible} if its contraction does not result in a graph of lower…

In this survey we overview known results on the strong subgraph $k$-connectivity and strong subgraph $k$-arc-connectivity of digraphs. After an introductory section, the paper is divided into four sections: basic results, algorithms and…

The central discovery of $2d$ conformal theory was holomorphic factorization, which expressed correlation functions through bilinear combinations of conformal blocks, which are easily cut and joined without a need to sum over the entire…
