Inspired by notorious combinatorial optimization problems on graphs, in this paper we consider a series of related problems defined using a metric space and topology determined by a graph. Particularly, we present the Independent Set,…

We focus on two specific generalizations of the chromatic symmetric function: one involving universal graphs and the other concerning vertex-weighted graphs. In this paper, we introduce a unified generalization that incorporates both…

Interval graphs and interval orders are deeply linked. In fact, edges of an interval graphs represent the incomparability relation of an interval order, and in general, of different interval orders. The question about the conditions under…

We introduce in this paper the marked chain-order polytopes associated to a marked poset, generalizing the marked chain polytopes and marked order polytopes by putting them as extremal cases in an Ehrhart equivalent family. Some…

In this article, we use a unified approach to prove several classes of planar graphs are DP-$3$-colorable, which extend the corresponding results on $3$-choosability.

We provide a new perspective on the divisor theory of graphs, using additive combinatorics. As a test case for this perspective, we compute the gonality of certain families of outerplanar graphs, specifically the strip graphs. The Jacobians…

Combinatorial generation of expander families and Lindenmayer-style development models are both parallel in nature. Both can be handled within proposed parallel graph grammar formalism. Their first-order properties can then be checked by…

We describe combinatorial properties of the defining row of a circulant Hadamard matrix by exploiting its orthogonality to subsequent rows, and show how to exclude several particular forms of these matrices.
