A graph $G$ is hypohamiltonian if $G$ is non-hamiltonian and $G - v$ is hamiltonian for every $v \in V(G)$. In the following, every graph is assumed to be hypohamiltonian. Aldred, Wormald, and McKay gave a list of all graphs of order at…
In this paper, we show that for all $k\geq 10^8$, every graph with minimum degree $k$ and girth at least $10^8$ contains an induced subdivision of a $K_{k+1}$. This answers a problem asked by K\"uhn and Osthus (originally attributed to…
The minimum rank of a simple graph $G$ is defined to be the smallest possible rank over all symmetric real matrices whose $ij$th entry (for $i\neq j$) is nonzero whenever $\{i,j\}$ is an edge in $G$ and is zero otherwise. Minimum rank is a…
We determine a lower bound for the number of edges of a 2-connected maximal nontraceable graph, and present a construction of an infinite family of maximal nontraceable graphs that realize this bound.
We classify which complete multipartite graphs are intrinsically chiral.
The Gram dimension $\gd(G)$ of a graph is the smallest integer $k \ge 1$ such that, for every assignment of unit vectors to the nodes of the graph, there exists another assignment of unit vectors lying in $\oR^k$, having the same inner…
We determine the minimum sum--connectivity index of bicyclic graphs with $n$ vertices and matching number $m$, where $2\le m\le \lfloor\frac{n}{2}\rfloor$, the minimum and the second minimum, as well as the maximum and the second maximum…
Every planar simple graph with n vertices has at least 2^(n/9) Z5-colorings.
A graph is ambiguously k-colorable if its vertex set admits two distinct partitions each into at most k anticliques. We give a full characterization of the maximally ambiguously k-colorable graphs in terms of quadratic matrices. As an…
We show that any orientation of a graph with maximum degree three has an oriented 9-colouring, and that any orientation of a graph with maximum degree four has an oriented 69-colouring. These results improve the best known upper bounds of…
We prove that a cubic graph with $m$ edges has an induced matching with at least $m/9$ edges. Our result generalizes a result for planar graphs due to Kang, Mnich, and M\"{u}ller (Induced matchings in subcubic planar graphs, SIAM J.…
We report the number of semigroups with 9 elements up to isomorphism or anti-isomorphism to be 52,989,400,714,478 and up to isomorphism to be 105,978,177,936,292. We obtained these results by combining computer search with recently…
A partial order on the set of prime knots can be defined by the existence of an epimorphism between knot groups. We prove that all the prime knots with up to $6$ crossings are minimal. We also show that each fibered knot with the…
Let k be a natural number. We introduce k-threshold graphs. We show that there exists an O(n^3) algorithm for the recognition of k-threshold graphs for each natural number k. k-Threshold graphs are characterized by a finite collection of…
A classification is given of all the countable homogeneous ordered bipartite graphs.
We prove that every graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with no isolated vertices contains an induced subgraph of size at least $n/10000$ with all degrees odd. This solves an old and well-known conjecture in graph theory.
The vertices of a graph are classified into seven types by J.T. Hedetniemi, S.M. Hedetniemi, S.T. Hedetniemi and T.M. Lewis and they ask the following questions: 1) What is the smallest order $n$ of a graph having $n-2$ very typical…
We construct a graph G such that any embedding of G into R^{3} contains a nonsplit link of two components, where at least one of the components is a nontrivial knot. Further, for any m < n we produce a graph H so that every embedding of H…
A graph has the unique path property UPP_n if there is a unique path of length n between any ordered pair of nodes. This paper reiterates Royle and MacKay's technique for constructing orderly algorithms. We wish to use this technique to…
We prove that any graph $G$ of minimum degree greater than $2k^2-1$ has a $(k+1)$-connected induced subgraph $H$ such that the number of vertices of $H$ that have neighbors outside of $H$ is at most $2k^2-1$. This generalizes a classical…
