We show that there are $k$ simple graphs whose Kronecker covers are isomorphic to the bipartite Kneser graph $H(n,k)$, and that their chromatic numbers coincide with $\chi(K(n,k)) = n - 2k + 2$. We also determine the automorphism groups of…

A normal $k$-edge-coloring of a cubic graph is an edge-coloring with $k$ colors having the additional property that when looking at the set of colors assigned to any edge $e$ and the four edges adjacent it, we have either exactly five…

The $k$-coprime graph of order $n$ is the graph with vertex set $\{k, k+1, \ldots, k+n-1\}$ in which two vertices are adjacent if and only if they are coprime. We characterize Hamiltonian $k$-coprime graphs. As a particular case, two…

An abstract $n$-polytope $\mathcal{P}$ is a partially-ordered set which captures important properties of a geometric polytope, for any dimension $n$. For even $n \ge 2$, the incidences between elements in the middle two layers of the Hasse…

Let $G$ be a finite group. The co-prime order graph of $G$ is the graph whose vertex set is $G$, and two distinct vertices $x,y$ are adjacent if gcd$(o(x),o(y))$ is either $1$ or a prime, where $o(x)$ and $o(y)$ are the orders of $x$ and…

For integers $k\geq 1$ and $n\geq 2k+1$ the Kneser graph $K(n,k)$ has as vertices all $k$-element subsets of $[n]:=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ and an edge between any two vertices (=sets) that are disjoint. The bipartite Kneser graph $H(n,k)$ has as…

We investigate the distribution of zeros of the independence polynomial ${\rm I}(G, x)$ for the family of Generalized Petersen graphs ${\rm GP}(n, k)$ in the complex plane. While the independence numbers and coefficients of these graphs…

There has been growing interest in studies of general random intersection graphs. In this paper, we consider a general random intersection graph $\mathbb{G}(n,\overrightarrow{a}, \overrightarrow{K_n},P_n)$ defined on a set $\mathcal{V}_n$…

In this paper we give a new generalization of token graphs. Given two integers $1\leq m \leq k$ and a graph $G$ we define the generalized token graph of the graph $G$, to be the graph $F_k^m(G)$ whose vertices correspond to configurations…

Let $n$, $k$ and $t$ be integers with $1\leq t< k \leq n$. The \emph{generalized Kneser graph} $K(n,k,t)$ is a graph whose vertices are the $k$-subsets of a fixed $n$-set, where two $k$-subsets $A$ and $B$ are adjacent if $|A\cap B|<t$. The…

In a graph $G$, a geodesic between two vertices $x$ and $y$ is a shortest path connecting $x$ to $y$. A subset $S$ of the vertices of $G$ is in general position if no vertex of $S$ lies on any geodesic between two other vertices of $S$. The…

Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a simple connected and undirected graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and edge set $E(G)$. A set $S \subseteq V(G)$ is a $dominating$ $set$ if for each $v \in V(G)$ either $v \in S$ or $v$ is adjacent to some $w \in S$. That…

The generalized Kneser hypergraph $KG^{r}(n,k,s)$ is the hypergraph whose vertices are all the $k$-subsets of $\{1,\ldots ,n\}$, and edges are $r$-tuples of distinct vertices such that any pair of them has at most $s$ elements in their…

A graph G is called (2k, k)-connected if G is 2k-edge-connected and G-v is k-edge-connected for every vertex v. The study of (2k, k)-connected graphs is motivated by a conjecture of Frank which states that a graph has a 2-vertex-connected…

Inspired by work of Fr\"oberg (1990), and Eagon and Reiner (1998), we define the \emph{total $k$-cut complex} of a graph $G$ to be the simplicial complex whose facets are the complements of independent sets of size $k$ in $G$. We study the…

The generalized $k$-connectivity $\kappa_{k}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a parameter that can measure the reliability of a network $G$ to connect any $k$ vertices in $G$, which is proved to be NP-complete for a general graph $G$. Let $S\subseteq…
