A graph $G$ with vertex set $\{v_1,v_2,\ldots,v_n\}$ is an intersection graph of segments if there are segments $s_1,\ldots,s_n$ in the plane such that $s_i$ and $s_j$ have a common point if and only if $\{v_i,v_j\}$ is an edge of~$G$. In…

Given a connected graph $G$ with at least three vertices, let $d_G(u,v)$ denote the distance between vertices $u,v\in V(G)$. A subset $S\subseteq V$ is called a doubly resolving set (DRS) of $G$ if for any two distinct vertices $u, v \in…

The Matching Cut problem is to decide if the vertex set of a connected graph can be partitioned into two non-empty sets $B$ and $R$ such that the edges between $B$ and $R$ form a matching, that is, every vertex in $B$ has at most one…

In this paper, we refer to a asymptotic degree sequence as $\mathscr{D}=(d_1,d_2,\dots,d_n)$. The examination of topological indices on trees gives us a general overview through bounds to find the maximum and minimum bounds which reflect…

The power dominating set (PDS) problem is the following extension of the well-known dominating set problem: find a smallest-size set of nodes $S$ that power dominates all the nodes, where a node $v$ is power dominated if (1) $v$ is in $S$…

The dominating set problem (DSP) is one of the most famous problems in combinatorial optimization. It is defined as follows. For a given simple graph $G=(V,E)$, a dominating set of $G$ is a subset $S\subseteq V$ such that every vertex in $…

An (h,s,t)-representation of a graph G consists of a collection of subtrees of a tree T, where each subtree corresponds to a vertex of G such that (i) the maximum degree of T is at most h, (ii) every subtree has maximum degree at mots s,…

The simplest null models for networks, used to distinguish significant features of a particular network from {\it a priori} expected features, are random ensembles with the degree sequence fixed by the specific network of interest. These…

A variety of network modeling problems begin by generating a degree sequence drawn from a given probability distribution. If the randomly generated sequence is not graphic, we give a new approach for generating a graphic approximation of…

We present a dichotomy theorem on the parameterized complexity of the 3-uniform hypergraphicality problem. Given $0<c_1\le c_2 < 1$, the parameterized 3-uniform Hypergraphic Degree Sequence problem, $3uni-HDS_{c_1,c_2}$, considers degree…

A labelling of a graph is an assignment of labels to its vertex or edge sets (or both), subject to certain conditions, a well established concept. A labelling of a graph G of order n is termed a numbering when the set of integers {1,...,n}…

The concept of rainbow disconnection number of graphs was introduced by Chartrand et al. in 2018. Inspired by this concept, we put forward the concepts of rainbow vertex-disconnection and proper disconnection in graphs. In this paper, we…

There are a variety of existing conditions for a degree sequence to be graphic. When a degree sequence satisfies any of these conditions, there exists a graph that realizes the sequence. We formulate several novel sufficient graphicality…

A matching cut is a partition of the vertex set of a graph into two sets $A$ and $B$ such that each vertex has at most one neighbor in the other side of the cut. The MATCHING CUT problem asks whether a graph has a matching cut, and has been…

For a directed graph $G$, and a linear order $\ll$ on the vertices of $G$, we define backedge graph $G^\ll$ to be the undirected graph on the same vertex set with edge $\{u,w\}$ in $G^\ll$ if and only if $(u,w)$ is an arc in $G$ and $w \ll…
