A mixed graph $\widetilde{G}$ is obtained by orienting some edges of a graph $G$, where $G$ is the underlying graph of $\widetilde{G}$. Let $r(\widetilde{G})$ be the $H$-rank of $\widetilde{G}$. Denote by $r(G)$, $\kappa(G)$, $m(G)$ and…

Let $G^{\sigma}$ be an oriented graph and $S(G^{\sigma})$ be its skew-adjacency matrix, where $G$ is called the underlying graph of $G^{\sigma}$. The skew-rank of $G^{\sigma}$, denoted by $sr(G^{\sigma})$, is the rank of $S(G^{\sigma})$.…

We construct Hadamard matrices of orders 4x251 = 1004 and 4x631 = 2524, and skew-Hadamard matrices of orders 4x213 = 852 and 4x631 = 2524. As far as we know, such matrices have not been constructed previously. The constructions use the…

In this paper, we simplify the known switching theorem due to Bose and Shrikhande as follows. Let $G=(V,E)$ be a primitive strongly regular graph with parameters $(v,k,\lambda,\mu)$. Let $S(G,H)$ be the graph from $G$ by switching with…

Degree ssortativity is the tendency for nodes of high degree (resp.low degree) in a graph to be connected to high degree nodes (resp. to low degree ones). It is sually quantified by the Pearson correlation coefficient of the degree-degree…

An oriented graph $G^\sigma$ is a digraph without loops and multiple arcs, where $G$ is called the underlying graph of $G^\sigma$. Let $S(G^\sigma)$ denote the skew-adjacency matrix of $G^\sigma$. The rank of the skew-adjacency matrix of…

A graph of order $n>3$ is called {switching separable} if its modulo-2 sum with some complete bipartite graph on the same set of vertices is divided into two mutually independent subgraphs, each having at least two vertices. We prove the…

For a connected graph $G$, we present the concept of a new graph matrix related to its distance and Seidel matrix, called distance Seidel matrix $\mathcal{D}^S(G)$. Suppose that the eigenvalues of $\mathcal{D}^S(G)$ be $\partial_{1}^{S}(G)…

A $t$-walk-regular graph is a graph for which the number of walks of given length between two vertices depends only on the distance between these two vertices, as long as this distance is at most $t$. Such graphs generalize distance-regular…

In this work, we delve into the study of the 2-switch-degree of a graph $G$, which is nothing more than the degree of $G$ as a vertex of the realization graph $\mathcal{G}(d)$ associated with the degree sequence $d$ of $G$. We explore the…
