The intersection graph of a collection of trapezoids with corner points lying on two parallel lines is called a trapezoid graph. These graphs and their generalizations were applied in various fields, including modeling channel routing…
K\'{a}rolyi, Pach, and T\'{o}th proved that every 2-edge-colored straight-line drawing of the complete graph contains a monochromatic plane spanning tree. It is open if this statement generalizes to other classes of drawings, specifically,…
The enhanced power graph $\mathcal P_e(S)$ of a semigroup $S$ is a simple graph whose vertex set is $S$ and two vertices $x,y \in S$ are adjacent if and only if $x, y \in \langle z \rangle$ for some $z \in S$, where $\langle z \rangle$ is…
Let $G$ be a graph, and $v\in V(G)$ and $S\subseteq V(G)\backslash v$ of size at least $k$. An important result on graph connectivity due to Perfect states that, if $v$ and $S$ are $k$-linked, then a $(k-1)$-link between a vertex $v$ and…
Let P be a set of n > 2 points in general position in the plane and let G be a geometric graph with vertex set P. If the number of empty triangles uvw in P for which the subgraph of G induced by {u,v,w} is not connected is at most n-3, then…

In this paper, we deal with hamiltonicity in planar cubic graphs G having a facial 2-factor Q via (quasi) spanning trees of faces in G/Q and study the algorithmic complexity of finding such (quasi) spanning trees of faces. Moreover, we show…
We examine connections between the gonality, treewidth, and orientable genus of a graph. Especially, we find that hyperelliptic graphs in the sense of Baker and Norine are planar. We give a notion of a bielliptic graph and show that each of…
A question at the intersection of Barnette's Hamiltonicity and Neumann-Lara's dicoloring conjecture is: Can every Eulerian oriented planar graph be vertex-partitioned into two acyclic sets? A CAI-partition of an undirected/oriented graph is…
For planar graphs, it is well known that high connectivity implies a Hamiltonian cycle and hence any 4-connected planar graph has a near-perfect matching. Nevertheless, whether 6-connected 1-planar graphs admit near-perfect matchings…
Given a finite point set P in general position in the plane, a full triangulation is a maximal straight-line embedded plane graph on P. A partial triangulation is a full triangulation of some subset P' of P containing all extreme points in…
In this paper, we survey some properties, encoding, and bijections involving combinatorial maps, double occurrence words, and chord diagrams. We particularly study quasi-trees from a purely combinatorial point of view and derive a…
A number which is either the square of an integer or two times the square of an integer is called squarish. There are two main results in the literature on graphs whose number of perfect matchings is squarish: one due to Jockusch (for…
Bipartite graphs model the relationship between two disjoint sets of objects. They have a wide range of applications and are often visualized as a 2-layered drawing, where each set of objects is visualized as a set of vertices (points) on…
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)…
It is shown how a connected graph and a tree with partially prescribed spectrum can be constructed. These constructions are based on a recent result of Salez that every totally real algebraic integer is an eigenvalue of a tree. Our result…
We present a bijection between some quadrangular dissections of an hexagon and unrooted binary trees, with interesting consequences for enumeration, mesh compression and graph sampling. Our bijection yields an efficient uniform random…
We find a family of planar bipartite graphs all of whose Lombardi drawings (drawings with circular arcs for edges, meeting at equal angles at the vertices) are nonplanar. We also find families of embedded series-parallel graphs and…
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…
It is a well-known fact that hamiltonicity in planar cubic graphs is an NP-complete problem. This implies that the existence of an A-trail in plane eulerian graphs is also an NP-complete problem even if restricted to planar 3-connected…
