A graph $G$ is $k$-edge geodetic graph if every edge of $G$ lies in at least one geodesic of length $k$. We studied some basic properties of $k$-edge geodetic graphs. We investigated the $k$ edge-geodeticity of complete bipartite graph…
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…
Let $k\ge 2$ be fixed integer, $0<c<1$ a constant. Consider a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and average degree $cn$. We answer a question of Simon Griffiths by showing that $G$ has $k$ vertices such that their neighborhoods together cover at…
We study graphs coming from quadratic spaces over finite fields via orthogonality which generalize a recent result given by Bishnoi, Ihringer, and Pepe (2019). More precisely, we study the graph $\Gamma^{\square}(n,k,q)$ as follows: the…
We prove that the number of $1$-factorisations of a generalised Petersen graph of the type $GP(3k,k)$ is equal to the $k$th Jacobsthal number $J(k)$ if $k$ is odd, and equal to $4J(k)$, when $k$ is even. Moreover, we verify the list…
We study a family of graphs related to the $n$-cube. The middle cube graph of parameter $k$ is the subgraph of $Q_{2k-1}$ induced by the set of vertices whose binary representation has either $k-1$ or $k$ number of ones. The middle cube…
Edge ideals of graphs were introduced by Villarreal in 1990, and have been the subject of many studies since then. In the same year, Fr\"oberg characterized edge ideals with regularity 2 in combinatorial terms. This result was generalized…
Let $G$ be a graph. The Steiner distance of $W\subseteq V(G)$ is the minimum size of a connected subgraph of $G$ containing $W$. Such a subgraph is necessarily a tree called a Steiner $W$-tree. The set $A\subseteq V(G)$ is a $k$-Steiner…
Let $k\ge 3$ be an integer, $q$ be a prime power, and $\mathbb{F}_q$ denote the field of $q$ elements. Let $f_i, g_i\in\mathbb{F}_q[X]$, $3\le i\le k$, such that $g_i(-X) = -\, g_i(X)$. We define a graph $S(k,q) =…
Wythoff's construction associates a uniform polytope to a Coxeter diagram whose vertices are decorated with crosses, which indicate the subgroup stabilizing a generic point. Champagne, Kjiri, Patera, and Sharp remarked that by associating…
We identify all $[1, \lambda, 8]$-cycle regular $I$-graphs and all $[1, \lambda, 8]$-cycle regular double generalized Petersen graphs. As a consequence we describe linear recognition algorithms for these graph families. Using structural…
The transmission ${\rm Tr}_G(u)$ of a vertex $u$ of a connected graph $G$ is the sum of distances from $u$ to all other vertices. $G$ is a stepwise transmission irregular (STI) graph if $|{\rm Tr}_G(u) - {\rm Tr}_G(v)|= 1$ holds for any…
The $k$-dominating graph $D_k(G)$ of a graph $G$ is defined on the vertex set consisting of dominating sets of $G$ with cardinality at most $k$, two such sets being adjacent if they differ by either adding or deleting a single vertex. A…
A graph H is k-common if the number of monochromatic copies of H in a k-edge-coloring of K_n is asymptotically minimized by a random coloring. For every k, we construct a connected non-bipartite k-common graph. This resolves a problem…
A graph $G$ is said to be an $(s, k)$-polar graph if its vertex set admits a partition $(A, B)$ such that $A$ and $B$ induce, respectively, a complete $s$-partite graph and the disjoint union of at most $k$ complete graphs. Polar graphs and…
Let $p, k, q$ be positive integers with $p-2 \geqslant k$ and let $K_{p,k}^{q}$ be the generalized pineapple graph which is obtained by joining independent set of $q$ vertices with $k$ vertices of a complete graph $K_{p}.$ In \cite{TSH2},…
This paper focuses on the graphs in the Petersen family, the set of minor minimal intrinsically linked graphs. We prove there is a relationship between algebraic linking of an embedding and knotting in an embedding. We also present a more…
We explore the well-known Jaeger's directed cycle double cover conjecture which is equivalent to the assertion that every cubic bridgeless graph has an embedding on a closed orientable surface with no dual loop. We associate each cubic…
In this note, we introduce a family of bipartite graphs called path restricted ordered bipartite graphs and present it as an abstract generalization of some well known geometric graphs like unit distance graphs on convex point sets. In the…
