A perfect $1$-factorisation of a graph is a decomposition of that graph into $1$-factors such that the union of any two $1$-factors is a Hamiltonian cycle. A Latin square of order $n$ is row-Hamiltonian if for every pair $(r,s)$ of distinct…

A graph $G = (V,E)$ is globally rigid in $\mathbb{R}^d$ if for any generic placement $p : V \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^d$ of the vertices, the edge lengths $||p(u) - p(v)||, uv \in E$ uniquely determine $p$, up to congruence. In this paper we…

We study Hamiltonicity and pancyclicity in the graph obtained as the union of a deterministic $n$-vertex graph $H$ with $\delta(H)\geq\alpha n$ and a random $d$-regular graph $G$, for $d\in\{1,2\}$. When $G$ is a random $2$-regular graph,…

The definition of $1$-planar graphs naturally extends graph planarity, namely a graph is $1$-planar if it can be drawn in the plane with at most one crossing per edge. Unfortunately, while testing graph planarity is solvable in linear time,…

A graph $G$ is called universal for a family of graphs $\mathcal{F}$ if it contains every element $F \in \mathcal{F}$ as a subgraph. Let $\mathcal{F}(n,2)$ be the family of all graphs with maximum degree $2$. Ferber, Kronenberg, and Luh…

It is a classical result that a random permutation of $n$ elements has, on average, about $\log n$ cycles. We generalise this fact to all directed $d$-regular graphs on $n$ vertices by showing that, on average, a random cycle-factor of such…

For $\textbf{r}=(r_1,\ldots,r_k)$, an $\textbf{r}$-factorization of the complete $\lambda$-fold $h$-uniform $n$-vertex hypergraph $\lambda K_n^h$ is a partition of the edges of $\lambda K_n^h$ into $F_1,\ldots, F_k$ such that $F_j$ is…

It is not hard to write a first order formula which is true for a given graph G but is false for any graph not isomorphic to G. The smallest number $(G) of nested quantifiers in a such formula can serve as a measure for the ``first order…

Given an $n\times n$ symmetric matrix $W\in [0,1]^{[n]\times [n]}$, let $\mathcal{G}(n,W)$ be the random graph obtained by independently including each edge $jk$ with probability $W_{jk}$. Given a degree sequence ${\bf d}=(d_1,\ldots,…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is a {\it unipolar graph} if there exits a partition $V=V_1 \cup V_2$ such that, $V_1$ is a clique and $V_2$ induces the disjoint union of cliques. The complement-closed class of {\it generalized split graphs} are those…

A subset $D \subseteq V $of a graph $G = (V, E)$ is a $(1, j)$-set if every vertex $v \in V \setminus D$ is adjacent to at least $1$ but not more than $j$ vertices in D. The cardinality of a minimum $(1, j)$-set of $G$, denoted as…

Let $G$ be a simple graph with $2n$ vertices and a perfect matching. The forcing number $f(G,M)$ of a perfect matching $M$ of $G$ is the smallest cardinality of a subset of $M$ that is contained in no other perfect matching of $G$. Among…

Let P_{n,d,D} denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all labelled planar graphs on {1,2,...,n} with minimum degree at least d(n) and maximum degree at most D(n). We use counting arguments to investigate the probability…

A graph is called 1-planar if there exists its drawing in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. In this paper, we study 1-planar graph joins. We prove that the join $G+H$ is 1-planar if and only if the pair $[G,H]$ is…

A graph is $1$-$planar$ if it can be drawn in the plane so that each edge is crossed by at most one other edge. Moreover, a 1-planar graph $G$ is $optimal$ if it satisfies $|E(G)|=4|V(G)|-8$. J. Fujisawa et al. [16] first considered…

For a set $\mathcal{H}$ of connected graphs, a spanning subgraph $H$ of $G$ is called an $\mathcal{H}$-factor of $G$ if each component of $H$ is isomorphic to an element of $\mathcal{H}$. A graph $G$ is called an $\mathcal{H}$-factor…

We prove that the number of perfect matchings in ${\mathcal G}(n,d)$ is asymptotically normal when $n$ is even, $d\to\infty$ as $n\to\infty$, and $d=O(n^{1/7}/\log^2 n)$. This is the first distributional result of spanning subgraphs of…

Let $G$ be a graph. We denote by $e(G)$ and $\rho(G)$ the size and the spectral radius of $G$. A spanning subgraph $F$ of $G$ is called an even factor of $G$ if $d_F(v)\in\{2,4,6,\ldots\}$ for every $v\in V(G)$. Yan and Kano provided a…

A $\textit{sigma partitioning}$ of a graph $G$ is a partition of the vertices into sets $P_1, \ldots, P_k$ such that for every two adjacent vertices $u$ and $v$ there is an index $i$ such that $u$ and $v$ have different numbers of neighbors…

Given two graphs G and H its 1-{\it join} is the graph obtained by taking the disjoint union of G and H and adding all the edges between a nonempty subset of vertices of G and a nonempty subset of vertices of H. In general, composition…
