We consider the problem of enumerating optimal solutions for two hypergraph $k$-partitioning problems -- namely, Hypergraph-$k$-Cut and Minmax-Hypergraph-$k$-Partition. The input in hypergraph $k$-partitioning problems is a hypergraph…

In this paper, we study the parameterized complexity and inapproximability of the {\sc Induced Matching} problem in hamiltonian bipartite graphs. We show that, given a hamiltonian cycle in a hamiltonian bipartite graph, the problem is…

This paper focuses on the embeddability of hypercubes in an important class of Cayley graphs, known as augmented cubes. An $n$-dimensional augmented cube $AQ_n$ is constructed by augmenting the $n$-dimensional hypercube $Q_n$ with…

Given an integer k, we consider the parallel k-stripping process applied to a hypergraph H: removing all vertices with degree less than k in each iteration until reaching the k-core of H. Take H as H_r(n,m): a random r-uniform hypergraph on…

First we consider families in the hypercube $Q_n$ with bounded VC dimension. Frankl raised the problem of estimating the number $m(n,k)$ of maximal families of VC dimension $k$. Alon, Moran and Yehudayoff showed that…

A connected 3-valent plane graph, whose faces are $q$- or 6-gons only, is called a {\em graph $q_n$}. We classify all graphs $4_n$, which are isometric subgraphs of a $m$-hypercube $H_m$.

Let $S=\{K_{1,3},K_3,P_4\}$ be the set of connected graphs of size 3. We study the problem of partitioning the edge set of a graph $G$ into graphs taken from any non-empty $S'\subseteq S$. The problem is known to be NP-complete for any…

We study the problem of partitioning the vertex set of a given graph so that each part induces a graph with components of bounded order; we are also interested in restricting these components to be paths. In particular, we say a graph $G$…

We consider the problem of embedding the nodes of a hypergraph into Euclidean space under the assumption that the interactions arose through closeness to unknown hyperedge centres. In this way, we tackle the inverse problem associated with…

A graph is "$H$-free" if it has no induced subgraph isomorphic to $H$. A conjecture of Conlon, Fox and Sudakov states that for every graph $H$, there exists $s>0$ such that in every $H$-free graph with $n>1$ vertices, either some vertex has…

We consider the algorithmic problem of generating each subset of $[n]:=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ whose size is in some interval $[k,l]$, $0\leq k\leq l\leq n$, exactly once (cyclically) by repeatedly adding or removing a single element, or by…

A graph $G$ is perfectly divisible if, for every induced subgraph $H$ of $G$, either $V(H)$ is a stable set or admits a partition into two sets $X_1$ and $X_2$ such that $\omega(H[X_1]) < \omega(H)$ and $H[X_2]$ is a perfect graph. In this…

In this short article, we consider a problem about $2$-partition of the vertices of a graph. If a graph admits such a partition into some 'small' graphs, then the number of edges cross an arbitrary cut of the graph $e(S,S^{c})$ has a nice…

Bollob\'as, Reed and Thomason proved every $3$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ with $m$ edges has a vertex-partition $V(\mathcal{H})=V_1 \sqcup V_2 \sqcup V_3$ such that each part meets at least $\frac{1}{3}(1-\frac{1}{e})m$ edges, later…

Motivated from the theory of quantum error correcting codes, we investigate a combinatorial problem that involves a symmetric $n$-vertices colourable graph and a group of operations (colouring rules) on the graph: find the minimum sequence…

We give another version of Huang's proof that an induced subgraph of the n-dimensional cube graph containing over half the vertices has maximal degree at least $\sqrt{n}$, which implies the Sensitivity Conjecture. This argument uses…

Let ${\cal{F}}=\{F_1,F_2,\ldots\}$ be a sequence of graphs such that $F_n$ is a graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree at most $\Delta$. We show that there exists an absolute constant $C$ such that the vertices of any 2-edge-colored…

For a positive integer $n$, a graph with at least $n$ vertices is $n$-existentially closed or simply $n$-e.c. if for any set of vertices $S$ of size $n$ and any set $T\subseteq S$, there is a vertex $x\not\in S$ adjacent to each vertex of…

In this short note we study two questions about the existence of subgraphs of the hypercube $Q_n$ with certain properties. The first question, due to Erd\H{o}s--Hamburger--Pippert--Weakley, asks whether there exists a bounded degree…

A subgraph $H$ of a graph $G$ is isometric if the distances between vertices in $H$ coincide with the distances between the corresponding vertices in $G$. We show that for any integer $n\ge 1$, there is a graph on $3^{n+O(\log^2 n)}$…
