We establish maximal trees and graphs for the difference of average distance and proximity proving thus the corresponding conjecture posed in [4]. We also establish maximal trees for the difference of average eccentricity and remoteness and…
We show that there exist infinitely many classes of intersection graphs of geometric objects that are not $\chi$-bounded -- namely, $d$-CBU graphs for $d\geq 3$ -- and each is incomparable with the class of Burling graphs. This answers a…
Given a graph $G$, an {\em obstacle representation} of $G$ is a set of points in the plane representing the vertices of $G$, together with a set of connected obstacles such that two vertices of $G$ are joined by an edge if and only if the…
A graph G=(V,E) is a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG) if there exists an edge-weighted tree T and two non-negative real numbers `d' and `D' such that each leaf `u' of T is a node of V and the edge `(u,v) belongs to E' iff `d <= d_T(u, v)…
The intersection graph of a group $G$ is an undirected graph without loops and multiple edges defined as follows: the vertex set is the set of all proper non-trivial subgroups of $G$, and there is an edge between two distinct vertices $H$…
The jump graph $J(G)$ of a simple graph $G$ has vertices which represent edges in $G$ where two vertices in $J(G)$ are adjacent if and only if the corresponding edges in $G$ do not share an endpoint. In this paper, we examine sequences of…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a set of positive numbers. A graph $G$ is called an $\mathcal{A}$-embeddable graph in $\mathbb{R}^d$ if the vertices of $G$ can be positioned in $\mathbb{R}^d$ so that the distance between endpoints of any edge is an…
In this paper we study threshold coloring of graphs, where the vertex colors represented by integers are used to describe any spanning subgraph of the given graph as follows. Pairs of vertices with near colors imply the edge between them is…
In this paper we present a characterisation, by an infinite family of minimal forbidden induced subgraphs, of proper circular arc graphs which are intersection graphs of paths on a grid, where each path has at most one bend (turn).
As graphical summaries for topological spaces and maps, Reeb graphs are common objects in the computer graphics or topological data analysis literature. Defining good metrics between these objects has become an important question for…
We characterize the graphs $G$ for which their toric ideals $I_G$ are complete intersections. In particular we prove that for a connected graph $G$ such that $I_G$ is complete intersection all of its blocks are bipartite except of at most…
A traversal of a connected graph is a linear ordering of its vertices all of whose initial segments induce connected subgraphs. Traversals, and their refinements such as breadth-first and depth-first traversals, are computed by various…
In a coupled network cells can interact in several ways. There is a vast literature from the last twenty years that investigates this interacting dynamics under a graph theory formalism, namely as a graph endowed with an input-equivalence…
An obstacle representation of a graph $G$ consists of a set of polygonal obstacles and a drawing of $G$ as a visibility graph with respect to the obstacles: vertices are mapped to points and edges to straight-line segments such that each…
The goal of graph inference is to design algorithms for learning properties of a hidden graph using queries to an oracle that returns information about the graph. Graph reconstruction, verification, and property testing are all types of…
A graph drawing in the plane is called an almost embedding if images of any two non-adjacent simplices (i.e. vertices or edges) are disjoint. We introduce integer invariants of almost embeddings: winding number, cyclic and triodic Wu…
A drawing in the plane ($\mathbb{R}^2$) of a graph $G=(V,E)$ equipped with a function $\gamma: V \rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ is \emph{$x$-bounded} if (i) $x(u) <x(v)$ whenever $\gamma(u)<\gamma(v)$ and (ii) $\gamma(u)\leq\gamma(w)\leq…
Highly-regular graphs can be regarded as a combinatorial generalization of distance-regular graphs. From this standpoint, we study combinatorial aspects of highly-regular graphs. As a result, we give the following three main results in this…
The vertex connectivity of a graph $G$ is the size of the smallest set of vertices $S$ such that $G \setminus S$ is disconnected. For the class of planar graphs, the problem of vertex connectivity is well-studied, both from structural and…
In this paper we consider some results on intersection between rays and a given family of convex, compact sets. These results are similar to the center point theorem, and Tverberg's theorem on partitions of a point set.
