We introduce a method to embed edge-colored graphs into families of expander graphs, which generalizes a framework developed by Dragani\'c, Krivelevich, and Nenadov (2022). As an application, we show that each family of sufficiently…
Let $G$ be a finite simple graph on the vertex set $V(G) = \{x_{1}, \ldots, x_{n}\}$ and match$(G)$, min-match$(G)$ and ind-match$(G)$ the matching number, minimum matching number and induced matching number of $G$, respectively. Let…
A {\em resolving set} for a graph $\Gamma$ is a collection of vertices $S$, chosen so that for each vertex $v$, the list of distances from $v$ to the members of $S$ uniquely specifies $v$. The {\em metric dimension} of $\Gamma$ is the…
Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, a set $S\subseteq V$ is said to be a monitoring edge-geodetic set if the deletion of any edge in the graph results in a change in the distance between at least one pair of vertices in $S$. The minimum size of such a…
Let $G$ be an edge-colored connected graph. A path $P$ in $G$ is called a distance $\ell$-proper path if no two edges of the same color appear with fewer than $\ell$ edges in between on $P$. The graph $G$ is called $(k,\ell)$-proper…
As a generalization of the concept of a metric basis, this article introduces the notion of $k$-metric basis in graphs. Given a connected graph $G=(V,E)$, a set $S\subseteq V$ is said to be a $k$-metric generator for $G$ if the elements of…
Let $G$ be a connected graph. Given an ordered set $W = \{w_1, w_2,\dots w_k\}\subseteq V(G)$ and a vertex $u\in V(G)$, the representation of $u$ with respect to $W$ is the ordered $k$-tuple $(d(u,w_1), d(u,w_2),\dots,$ $d(u,w_k))$, where…
A graph $G$ is said to be $d$-distinguishable if there is a labeling of the vertices with $d$ labels so that only the trivial automorphism preserves the labels. The smallest such $d$ is the distinguishing number, Dist($G$). A subset of…
The \emph{eccentricity} of a vertex $u$ in a graph $G$, denoted by $e_G(u)$, is the maximum distance from $u$ to other vertices in $G$. We study extremal problems for the average eccentricity and the first and second Zagreb eccentricity…
A function $f:V(G)\rightarrow \mathbb{Z}^+ \cup \{0\}$ is a resolving broadcast of a graph $G$ if, for any distinct $x,y\in V(G)$, there exists a vertex $z\in V(G)$ with $f(z)>0$ such that $\min\{d(x,z), f(z)+1\} \neq \min\{d(y,z),…
We investigate edge-intersection graphs of paths in the plane grid, regarding a parameter called the bend-number. I.e., every vertex is represented by a grid path and two vertices are adjacent if and only if the two grid paths share at…
Let $G$ be a connected undirected graph on $n$ vertices with no loops but possibly multiedges. Given an arithmetical structure $(\textbf{r}, \textbf{d})$ on $G$, we describe a construction which associates to it a graph $G'$ on $n-1$…
The degree set of a finite simple graph $G$ is the set of distinct degrees of vertices of $G$. A theorem of Kapoor, Polimeni & Wall asserts that the least order of a graph with a given degree set $\mathscr D$ is $1+\max \mathscr D$.…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a connected simple graph. The distance $d(u,v)$ between vertices $u$ and $v$ from $V$ is the number of edges in the shortest $u-v$ path. If $e=uv \in E$ is an edge in $G$ than distance $d(w,e)$ where $w$ is some vertex in…
Let $G$ be a simple connected graph with order $ n(G)$, local metric dimension $ {\rm dim}_l(G)$, local adjacency metric dimension $ {\rm dim}_{A,l}(G)$, and clique number $ \omega(G)$, where $G\not\cong K_{n(G)}$ and $\omega(G)\geq3$. It…
The visibility graph of a finite set of points in the plane has the points as vertices and an edge between two vertices if the line segment between them contains no other points. This paper establishes bounds on the edge- and…
Let $G$ be a connected finite graph with vertex set $V(G)$. The eccentricity $e(v)$ of a vertex $v$ is the distance from $v$ to a vertex farthest from $v$. The average eccentricity of $G$ is defined as $\frac{1}{|V(G)|}\sum_{v \in…
A vertex $v$ is said to distinguish two other vertices $x$ and $y$ of a nontrivial connected graph G if the distance from $v$ to $x$ is different from the distance from $v$ to $y$. A set $S\subseteq V(G)$ is a local metric set for $G$ if…
In this paper, we prove a number of results about pattern avoidance in graphs with bounded metric dimension or edge metric dimension. We show that the maximum possible number of edges in a graph of diameter $D$ and edge metric dimension $k$…
Let $G$ be a simple undirected graph. The regular number of $G$ is defined to be the minimum number of subsets into which the edge set of $G$ can be partitioned so that the subgraph induced by each subset is regular. In this work, we obtain…
