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)…

A graph $G$ is a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG) if there exists an edge-weighted tree and an interval $I$, such that each leaf of the tree is a vertex of the graph, and there is an edge $\{ x, y \}$ in $G$ if and only if the weight of…

A graph $G$ is called a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG, for short) if it admits a tuple $(T,w, d_{\min},d_{\max})$ of a tree $T$ whose leaf set is equal to the vertex set of $G$, a non-negative edge weight $w$, and two non-negative reals…

Pairwise compatibility graphs (PCGs) with non-negative integer edge weights recently have been used to describe rare evolutionary events and scenarios with horizontal gene transfer. Here we consider the case that vertices are separated by…

Reconstruction of evolutionary relationships between species is an important topic in the field of computational biology. Pairwise compatibility graphs (PCGs) are used to model such relationships. A graph is a PCG if its edges can be…

Pairwise Compatibility Graphs (PCGs) form a tree-metric graph class that originated in phylogeny and has since attracted sustained interest in graph theory. Several natural generalizations have been proposed in order to overcome the…

We investigate the tractability of a simple fusion of two fundamental structures on graphs, a spanning tree and a perfect matching. Specifically, we consider the following problem: given an edge-weighted graph, find a minimum-weight…

Threshold graphs are recursive deterministic network models that have been proposed for describing certain economic and social interactions. One drawback of this graph family is that it has limited generative attachment rules. To mitigate…

An independent edge set of graph $G$ is a matching, and is maximal if it is not a proper subset of any other matching of $G$. The number of all the maximal matchings of $G$ is denoted by $\Psi(G)$. In this paper, an algorithm to count…

We consider problems of finding a maximum size/weight $t$-matching without forbidden subgraphs in an undirected graph $G$ with the maximum degree bounded by $t+1$, where $t$ is an integer greater than $2$. Depending on the variant forbidden…

An edge-coloured graph $G$ is called $properly$ $connected$ if every two vertices are connected by a proper path. The $proper$ $connection$ $number$ of a connected graph $G$, denoted by $pc(G)$, is the smallest number of colours that are…

A {\it tiered graph} $G=(V,E)$ with $m $ tiers is a simple graph with $V\subseteq \brk{n}$, where $\brk{n}=\{1,2,\cdots,n\}$, and with a surjective map $t$ from $V$ to $\brk{m}$ such that if $v$ is a vertex adjacent to $v'$ in $G$ with…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is a star-$k$-PCG if there exists a weight function $w: V \rightarrow R^+$ and $k$ mutually exclusive intervals $I_1, I_2, \ldots I_k$, such that there is an edge $uv \in E$ if and only if $w(u)+w(v) \in \bigcup_i I_i$.…

\noindent A paired coalition in a graph $G=(V,E)$ consists of two disjoint sets of vertices $V_1$ and $V_2$, neither of which is a paired dominating set but whose union $V_1 \cup V_2$ is a paired dominating set. A paired coalition partition…

A signed graph $G$ is a graph where each edge is assigned a + (positive edge) or a - (negative edge). The signed degree of a vertex $v$ in a signed graph, denoted by $sdeg(v)$, is the number of positive edges incident to $v$ subtracted by…
