Haj\'os conjecture asserts that a simple Eulerian graph on n vertices can be decomposed into at most (n - 1)/2 cycles. The conjecture is only proved for graph classes in which every element contains vertices of degree 2 or 4. We develop new…

Let A_1,...,A_k be a collection of families of subsets of an n-element set. We say that this collection is cross-intersecting if for any i,j in [k] with i not equal to j, A in A_i and B in A_j implies that the intersection of A and B is…

The Euler genus of a graph is a fundamental and well-studied parameter in graph theory and topology. Computing it has been shown to be NP-hard by [Thomassen '89 & '93], and it is known to be fixed-parameter tractable. However, the…

A hypergraph is Sperner if no hyperedge contains another one. A Sperner hypergraph is equilizable (resp., threshold) if the characteristic vectors of its hyperedges are the (minimal) binary solutions to a linear equation (resp., inequality)…

It is well-known that every tournament has a spanning path. We consider hypergraph analogues. In an \emph{$r$-uniform fully directed hypergraph}, or \emph{$r$-digraph}, every edge is a list or $r$ distinct vertices. An $(r,k)$-tournament is…

Families of symmetric simple random walks on Cayley graphs of Abelian groups with a bound on the number of generators are shown to never have sharp cut off in the sense of [1], [3], or [5]. Here convergence to the stationary distribution is…

Euler diagrams are an intuitive and popular method to visualize set-based data. In a Euler diagram, each set is represented as a closed curve, and set intersections are shown by curve overlaps. However, Euler diagrams are not visually…

A family of sets is $s$-intersecting if every pair of its sets has at least $s$ elements in common. It is an $s$-star if all its members have some $s$ elements in common. A family of sets is called $s$-EKR if all its $s$-intersecting…

A crossing family is a collection of pairwise crossing segments, this concept was introduced by Aronov et. al. (1994). They prove that any set of $n$ points (in general position) in the plain contains a crossing family of size…

Motivated by the classical conjectures of Lov\'asz, Thomassen, and Smith, recent work has renewed interest in the study of longest cycles in important graph families, such as vertex-transitive and highly connected graphs. In particular,…

Given a set of points in the plane, a \emph{crossing family} is a collection of segments, each joining two of the points, such that every two segments intersect internally. Aronov et al. [Combinatorica,~14(2):127-134,~1994] proved that any…

Euler graphs with only one (two) type(s) of cycles under (mod 4) operation were studied in Part-I(II). Here we consider the class of Euler graphs with only three types of cycles under (mod 4). This gives rise to four cases viz., graphs…

For a connected graph, a vertex separator is a set of vertices whose removal creates at least two components. A vertex separator $S$ is minimal if it contains no other separator as a strict subset and a minimum vertex separator is a minimal…

One of the De Bruijn - Erdos theorems deals with finite hypergraphs where every two vertices belong to precisely one hyperedge. It asserts that, except in the perverse case where a single hyperedge equals the whole vertex set, the number of…

We introduce and analyze a model of a multi-directed Eulerian network, that is a directed and weighted network where a path exists that passes through all the edges of the network once and only once. Networks of this type can be used to…

A graph $\Gamma$ is called edge-regular whenever it is regular and for any two adjacent vertices, the number of their common neighbors is independent of the choice of vertices. A clique $C$ in $\Gamma$ is called regular whenever for any…
