Cyclic codes are an interesting type of linear codes and have applications in communication and storage systems due to their efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. They have been studied for decades and a lot of progress has been made.…

A generic construction of linear codes over finite fields has recently received a lot of attention, and many one-weight, two-weight and three-weight codes with good error correcting capability have been produced with this generic approach.…

In this article, the enumeration of partial chord diagrams is discussed via matrix model techniques. In addition to the basic data such as the number of backbones and chords, we also consider the Euler characteristic, the backbone spectrum,…

Let $P(G)=(P_{0}(G),P_{1}(G),\cdots, P_{\rho}(G))$ be the path sequence of a graph $G$, where $P_{i}(G)$ is the number of paths with length $i$ and $\rho$ is the length of a longest path in $G$. In this paper, we first give the path…

Characterization of k-chordal graphs based on the existence of a "simplicial path" was shown in [Chv{\'a}tal et al. Note: Dirac-type characterizations of graphs without long chordless cycles. Discrete Mathematics, 256, 445-448, 2002]. We…

We consider the size of the smallest set of vertices required to intersect every longest path in a chordal graph. Such sets are known as longest path transversals. We show that if $\omega(G)$ is the clique number of a chordal graph $G$,…

A graph $X$ is said to be chordal bipartite if it is bipartite and contains no induced cycle of length at least $6$. It is proved that if $X$ does not contain bipartite claw as an induced subgraph, then the Weisfeiler-Leman dimension of $X$…

A monotone drawing of a planar graph $G$ is a planar straight-line drawing of $G$ where a monotone path exists between every pair of vertices of $G$ in some direction. Recently monotone drawings of planar graphs have been proposed as a new…

A binary $[n,k]$-linear code $\mathcal{C}$ is a $k$-dimensional subspace of $\mathbb{F}_2^n$. For $\boldsymbol{x}\in \mathbb{F}_2^n$, the set $\boldsymbol{x}+\mathcal{C}$ is a coset of $\mathcal{C}$. In this work we study a partial ordering…

A bipartite graph is chordal bipartite if every cycle of length at least 6 has a chord in it. In this paper, we investigate the structure of $P_5$-free chordal bipartite graphs and show that these graphs have a Nested Neighborhood Ordering,…

A monotone drawing of a graph G is a straight-line drawing of G such that every pair of vertices is connected by a path that is monotone with respect to some direction. Trees, as a special class of graphs, have been the focus of several…

We introduce a new series $R_k$, $k=2,3,4,\dots$, of integer valued weight systems. The value of the weight system $R_k$ on a chord diagram is a signed number of cycles of even length $2k$ in the intersection graph of the diagram. We show…

A graph is unichord free if it does not contain a cycle with exactly one chord as its subgraph. In [3], it is shown that a graph is unichord free if and only if every minimal vertex separator is a stable set. In this paper, we first show…

In an $n \times n$ array filled with symbols, a transversal is a collection of entries with distinct rows, columns and symbols. In this note we show that if no symbol appears more than $\beta n$ times, the array contains a transversal of…

We prove that the class of chordal graphs is easily testable in the following sense. There exists a constant $c>0$ such that, if adding/removing at most $\epsilon n^2$ edges to a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices does not make it chordal, then a…

The partial representation extension problem is a recently introduced generalization of the recognition problem. A circle graph is an intersection graph of chords of a circle. We study the partial representation extension problem for circle…

It is known that $\Theta(\log n)$ chords must be added to an $n$-cycle to produce a pancyclic graph; for vertex pancyclicity, where every vertex belongs to a cycle of every length, $\Theta(n)$ chords are required. A possibly `intermediate'…

Sequential lateration is a class of methods for multidimensional scaling where a suitable subset of nodes is first embedded by some method, e.g., a clique embedded by classical scaling, and then the remaining nodes are recursively embedded…

By the Grid Minor Theorem of Robertson and Seymour, every graph of sufficiently large tree-width contains a large grid as a minor. Tree-width may therefore be regarded as a measure of 'grid-likeness' of a graph. The grid contains a long…

A divisor graph $G$ is an ordered pair $(V, E)$ where $V \subset \mathbbm{Z}$ and for all $u \neq v \in V$, $u v \in E$ if and only if $u \mid v$ or $v \mid u$. A graph which is isomorphic to a divisor graph is also called a divisor graph.…
