In this paper we consider Contact graphs of Paths on a Grid (CPG graphs), i.e. graphs for which there exists a family of interiorly disjoint paths on a grid in one-to-one correspondence with their vertex set such that two vertices are…
A graph is $\textit{cubelike}$ if it is a Cayley graph for some elementary abelian $2$-group $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$. The core of a graph is its smallest subgraph to which it admits a homomorphism. More than ten years ago, Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il and…
Minimal prime graphs (MPGs) are a special class of prime graphs (also known as Gruenberg-Kegel graphs) associated with finite solvable groups. A graph is an MPG if it has at least two vertices, is connected, its complement is triangle-free…
We study the Universal Difference Property (UDP) introduced by Alt{\i}nok, Anders, Arreola, Asencio, Ireland, Sar{\i}o\u{g}lan, and Smith, focusing on the relationship between the structural properties of a graph and UDP. We present…
An {\it overlap representation} of a graph $G$ assigns sets to vertices so that vertices are adjacent if and only if their assigned sets intersect with neither containing the other. The {\it overlap number} $\ol(G)$ (introduced by Rosgen)…
A complex unit gain graph is a triple $\varphi=(G, \mathbb{T}, \varphi)$ (or $G^{\varphi}$ for short) consisting of a simple graph $G$, as the underlying graph of $G^{\varphi}$, the set of unit complex numbers $\mathbb{T}={z\in \mathbb{C}:…
A median graph is a connected graph, such that for any three vertices $u,v,w$ there is exactly one vertex $x$ that lies simultaneously on a shortest $(u,v)$-path, a shortest $(v,w)$-path and a shortest $(w,u)$-path. Examples of median…
The algebraic degree $Deg(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the dimension of the splitting field of the adjacency polynomial of $G$ over the field $\mathbb{Q}$. It can be shown that for every positive integer $d$, there exists a circulant graph with…
Let $G$ be a connected graph and let $F$ be a connected subgraph of $G$ with a given structure. We consider that the centrality of a vertex $i$ of $G$ is determined by the centrality of other vertices in all subgraphs contain $i$ and…
For a graph property $\mathcal{P}$ and a common vertex set $V = \{1, 2, \ldots, n\}$, a family of graphs on $V$ is \emph{$\mathcal{P}$-intersecting} iff $G \cap H$ satisfies $\mathcal{P}$ for all $G,H$ in the family. Addressing a question…
In a representation of a graph $G$ as an edge intersection graph of paths on a grid (EPG) every vertex of $G$ is represented by a path on a grid and two paths share a grid edge iff the corresponding vertices are adjacent. In a monotonic EPG…
A graph is Berge if it has no induced odd cycle on at least 5 vertices and no complement of induced odd cycle on at least 5 vertices. A graph is perfect if the chromatic number equals the maximum clique number for every induced subgraph.…
A path in an edge-colored graph is called a proper path if no two adjacent edges of the path are colored with one same color. An edge-colored graph is called $k$-proper connected if any two vertices of the graph are connected by $k$…
The quadratic embedding constant (QEC) of a graph $G$ is a new numeric invariant, which is defined in terms of the distance matrix and is denoted by $\mathrm{QEC}(G)$. By observing graph structure of the maximal cliques (clique graph), we…
A set S is independent in a graph G if no two vertices from S are adjacent. By core(G) we mean the intersection of all maximum independent sets. The independence number alpha(G) is the cardinality of a maximum independent set, while mu(G)…
In a graph, we assign distinct integers to the vertices, and take the sum of two integers if they are on two adjacent vertices. The minimum possible number of different sums is the \emph{sum index} of this graph. In this paper, we present…
The enhanced power graph $\mathcal{P}_e(G)$ of a group $G$ is a graph with vertex set $G$ and two vertices are adjacent if they belong to the same cyclic subgroup. In this paper, we consider the minimum degree, independence number and…
Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) have achieved impressive performance in a wide variety of areas, attracting considerable attention. The core step of GCNs is the information-passing framework that considers all information from neighbors…
The edge clique cover number $ecc(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the size of the smallest set of complete subgraphs whose union covers all edges of $G$. It has been conjectured that all the simple graphs with independence number two satisfy…
A 1-factor of a hypergraph $G=(X,W)$ is a set of hyperedges such that every vertex of $G$ is incident to exactly one hyperedge from the set. A 1-factorization is a partition of all hyperedges of $G$ into disjoint 1-factors. The adjacency…
