Three $q$-versions of Lommel polynomials are studied. Included are explicit representations, recurrences, continued fractions, and connections to associated Askey--Wilson polynomials. Combinatorial results are emphasized, including a…

For any graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and for any {\em symmetric} subgraph $J$ of $K_{n,n}$, we construct an infinite sequence of graphs based on the pair $(G,J)$. The First graph in the sequence is $G$, then at each stage replacing every…

Let $G$ be a graph and $A$ the adjacency matrix of $G$. The permanental polynomial of $G$ is defined as $\mathrm{per}(xI-A)$. In this paper some of the results from a numerical study of the permanental polynomials of graphs are presented.…

In this short note, we establish some identities containing sums of binomials with coefficients satisfying third order linear recursive relations. As a result and in particular, we obtain general forms of earlier identities involving…

By now it is well established that the quantum dimensions of descendants of the adjoint representation can be described in a universal form, independent of a particular family of simple Lie algebras. The Rosso-Jones formula then implies a…

Complement-reducible graphs (or cographs) are the graphs formed from the single-vertex graph by the operations of complement and disjoint union. By combining the Johnson-Newman theorem on generalized cospectrality with the standard tools in…

One way to study certain classes of polynomials is by considering examples that are attached to combinatorial objects. Any graph $G$ has an associated reciprocal polynomial $R_G$, and with two particular classes of reciprocal polynomials in…

For an integer k >= 1, the k-th interlacing adjoint of a digraph G is the digraph i_k(G) with vertex-set V(G)^k, and arcs ((u_1, ..., u_k), (v_1, ..., v_k)) such that (u_i,v_i) \in A(G) for i = 1, ..., k and (v_i, u_{i+1}) \in A(G) for i =…

We study a class of complex polynomial equations on a finite graph with a view to understanding how holistic phenomena emerge from combinatorial structure. Particular solutions arise from orthogonal projections of regular polytopes,…

Let $G$ be a simple graph of order $n$. The {\em domination polynomial} of $G$ is the polynomial ${D(G, x)=\sum_{i=0}^{n} d(G,i) x^{i}}$, where $d(G,i)$ is the number of dominating sets of $G$ of size $i$. Let $n$ be any positive integer…

A universal adjacency matrix of a graph $G$ with adjacency matrix $A$ is any matrix of the form $U = \alpha A + \beta I + \gamma J + \delta D$ with $\alpha \neq 0$, where $I$ is the identity matrix, $J$ is the all-ones matrix and $D$ is the…

We introduce a new bivariate polynomial ${\displaystyle J(G; x,y):=\sum\limits_{W \in V(G)} x^{|W|}y^{|N(W)|}}$ which contains the standard domination polynomial of the graph $G$ in two different ways. We build methods for efficient…

For a graph $G$ and an integer $d\geq 0$, the defective chromatic polynomial $\chi_d(G;k)$ counts the $k$-colorings of $G$ in which each vertex has at most $d$ neighbors of its own color. We investigate which structural properties of $G$…

Suppose $G$ is a simple graph with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges, and rank $r$. Let $\chi_G(t)=a_0t^n-a_1t^{n-1}+\cdots +(-1)^ra_rt^{n-r}$ be the chromatic polynomial of $G$. For $q,k\in \Bbb{Z}$ and $0\le k\le q+r+1$, we obtain a sharp two-side…

From analysis of a big variety of different knots we conclude that at q which is an root of unity, q^{2m}=1, HOMFLY polynomials in symmetric representations [r] satisfy recursion identity: H_{r+m} = H_r H_m for any A, which is a…

It is well known that the 2-variable Tutte polynomials contain chromatic polynomial and flow polynomial of graphs, i.e. the cases of $y=0$ and $x=0$. In 2013, K\'{a}lm\'{a}n introduced the interior and exterior polynomials which generalized…

We assign a new polynomial to any checkerboard-colorable 4-valent virtual graph in terms of its Euler circuit expansion. This provides a new combinatorial formulation of the Kauffman-Jones polynomial for checkerboard-colorable virtual…
