For a simple graph $G$, the $2$-distance graph, $D_2(G)$, is a graph with the vertex set $V(G)$ and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their distance is $2$ in the graph $G$. In this paper, we characterize all graphs with connected…
In a {\em grounded string representation} of a graph there is a horizontal line $\ell$ and each vertex is represented as a simple curve below $\ell$ with one end point on $\ell$ such that two curves intersect if and only if the respective…
We consider drawings of graphs that contain dense subgraphs. We introduce intersection-link representations for such graphs, in which each vertex $u$ is represented by a geometric object $R(u)$ and in which each edge $(u,v)$ is represented…
Let $G$ be a finite group and construct a graph $\Delta(G)$ by taking $G\setminus\{1\}$ as the vertex set of $\Delta(G)$ and by drawing an edge between two vertices $x$ and $y$ if $\langle x,y\rangle$ is cyclic. Let $K(G)$ be the set…
We give a precise description of combed trees in terms of Kelly-Mac Lane graphs. We show that any combed tree is uniquely expressed as an allowable Kelly-Mac Lane graph of a certain shape. Conversely, we show that any such Kelly-Mac Lane…
After recalling the definition of connectivity spaces and some of their main properties, a way is proposed to represent finite connectivity spaces by directed simple graphs. Then a connectivity structure is associated to each tame link. It…
A dominating set of a graph $G$ is a set $D\subseteq V_G$ such that every vertex in $V_G-D$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $D$, and the domination number $\gamma(G)$ of $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of $G$. A set…
A graph $G=(V,E)$ is representable if there exists a word $W$ over the alphabet $V$ such that letters $x$ and $y$ alternate in $W$ if and only if $(x,y)\in E$ for each $x\neq y$. If $W$ is $k$-uniform (each letter of $W$ occurs exactly $k$…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. We introduce a novel bipartite graph $\mathcal{B}(R)$, the \textit{bipartite zero-divisor--unit graph}, whose vertex set is the disjoint union of the nonzero zero-divisors $Z(R)^*$ and the unit…
Lov\'asz (1967) showed that two graphs $G$ and $H$ are isomorphic if and only if they are homomorphism indistinguishable over the class of all graphs, i.e. for every graph $F$, the number of homomorphisms from $F$ to $G$ equals the number…
A graph $\Gamma$ is called $G$-symmetric if it admits $G$ as a group of automorphisms acting transitively on the set of ordered pairs of adjacent vertices. We give a classification of $G$-symmetric graphs $\Gamma$ with $V(\Gamma)$ admitting…
An arithmetical structure on a finite and connected graph G is a pair (d, r) of positive integer vectors such that r is primitive (the gcd of its entries is 1) and (diag(d) - A)r = 0, where A is the adjacency matrix of G. In this article,…
Given a set of nonempty subsets of some universal set, their intersection graph is defined as the graph with one vertex for each set and two vertices are adjacent precisely when their representing sets have non-empty intersection. Sometimes…
A graph is a data structure composed of dots (i.e. vertices) and lines (i.e. edges). The dots and lines of a graph can be organized into intricate arrangements. The ability for a graph to denote objects and their relationships to one…
Given a positive-weighted simple connected graph with $m$ vertices, labelled by the numbers $1,\ldots,m$, we can construct an $m \times m$ matrix whose entry $(i,j)$, for any $i,j\in\{1,\dots,m\}$, is the minimal weight of a path between…
The $\gamma$-graph of a graph $G$ is the graph whose vertices are labelled by the minimum dominating sets of $G$, in which two vertices are adjacent when their corresponding minimum dominating sets (each of size $\gamma(G)$) intersect in a…
Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $\Delta(G)$ be the prime graph built on the set of conjugacy class sizes of $G$: this is the simple undirected graph whose vertices are the prime numbers dividing some conjugacy class size of $G$, two…
We investigate a representation of the automorphism group of a connected graph $X$ in the group of unimodular matrices $U_\beta$ of dimension $\beta$, where $\beta$ is the Betti number of graph $X$. We classify the graphs for which the…
We investigate the parameterized complexity of the recognition problem for the proper $H$-graphs. The $H$-graphs are the intersection graphs of connected subgraphs of a subdivision of a multigraph $H$, and the properness means that the…
We prove several criteria for quasi-isometry between non-locally-finite graphs and their structure trees. Results of M\"oller in \cite{moeller92ends2} for locally finite and transitive graphs are generalized. We also give a criterion which…
