Nash-Williams proved that for an undirected graph $ G $ the set $ E(G) $ can be partitioned into cycles if and only if every cut has either even or infinite number of edges. Later C. Thomassen gave a simpler proof for this and conjectured…

We consider the problem of decomposing the edges of a directed graph into as few paths as possible. There is a natural lower bound for the number of paths needed in an edge decomposition of a directed graph $D$ in terms of its degree…

A coloring of edges of a finite directed graph turns the graph into finite-state automaton. The synchronizing word of a deterministic automaton is a word in the alphabet of colors (considered as letters) of its edges that maps the automaton…

In order to find Hamiltonian cycle, algorithm should find edges that creates a Hamiltonian cycle. Higher number of edges creates more possibilities to check to solve the problem. Algorithm rests on analysis of original graph and opposite…

Vizing showed that it suffices to color the edges of a simple graph using $\Delta + 1$ colors, where $\Delta$ is the maximum degree of the graph. However, up to this date, no efficient distributed edge-coloring algorithms are known for…

We give several results showing that different discrete structures typically gain certain spanning substructures (in particular, Hamilton cycles) after a modest random perturbation. First, we prove that adding linearly many random edges to…

In 1981 Jackson showed that the diregular bipartite tournament (a complete bipartite graph whose edges are oriented so that every vertex has the same in- and outdegree) contains a Hamilton cycle, and conjectured that in fact the edge set of…

Properly colored cycles in edge-colored graphs are closely related to directed cycles in oriented graphs. As an analogy of the well-known Caccetta-H\"{a}ggkvist Conjecture, we study the existence of properly colored cycles of bounded length…

An algorithm for quantum computing Hamiltonian cycles of simple, cubic, bipartite graphs is discussed. It is shown that it is possible to evolve a quantum computer into an entanglement of states which map onto the set of all possible paths…

Directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) are directed graphs in which there is no path from a vertex to itself. DAGs are an omnipresent data structure in computer science and the problem of counting the DAGs of given number of vertices and to sample…

In this paper, we study discrepancy questions for spanning subgraphs of $k$-uniform hypergraphs. Our main result is that, for any integers $k \ge 3$ and $r \ge 2$, any $r$-colouring of the edges of a $k$-uniform $n$-vertex hypergraph $G$…

We show that with high probability we can build a Hamilton cycle after at most $1.85 n$ rounds in a particular semi-random model. In this model, in one round, we are given a {uniform random} $v\in[n]$ and then we can add an {arbitrary} edge…

The natural infinite analogue of a (finite) Hamilton cycle is a two-way-infinite Hamilton path (connected spanning 2-valent subgraph). Although it is known that every connected $2k$-valent infinite circulant graph has a two-way-infinite…

We prove several results on approximate decompositions of edge-coloured quasirandom graphs into rainbow spanning structures. More precisely, we say that an edge-colouring of a graph is locally $\ell$-bounded if no vertex is incident to more…

Coloring the arcs of biregular graphs was introduced with possible applications to industrial chemistry, molecular biology, cellular neuroscience, etc. Here, we deal with arc coloring in some non-bipartite graphs. In fact, for…

We study the Hamilton cycle problem with input a random graph G=G(n,p) in two settings. In the first one, G is given to us in the form of randomly ordered adjacency lists while in the second one we are given the adjacency matrix of G. In…

Balogh, Csaba, Jing and Pluh\'ar recently determined the minimum degree threshold that ensures a $2$-coloured graph $G$ contains a Hamilton cycle of significant colour bias (i.e., a Hamilton cycle that contains significantly more than half…

We solve, in a fully decentralised way (\ie with no message passing), the classic problem of colouring a graph. We propose a novel algorithm that is automatically responsive to topology changes, and we prove that it converges quickly to a…

We prove that the number of Hamilton cycles in the random graph G(n,p) is n!p^n(1+o(1))^n a.a.s., provided that p\geq (ln n+ln ln n+\omega(1))/n. Furthermore, we prove the hitting-time version of this statement, showing that in the random…
