We give a complete characterization of mixed unit interval graphs, the intersection graphs of closed, open, and half-open unit intervals of the real line. This is a proper superclass of the well known unit interval graphs. Our result solves…
A solution to a problem of Erd\H{o}s, Rubin and Taylor is obtained by showing that if a graph $G$ is $(a:b)$-choosable, and $c/d > a/b$, then $G$ is not necessarily $(c:d)$-choosable. The simplest case of another problem, stated by the same…
It is known that a distance-regular graph with valency $k$ at least three admits at most two Q-polynomial structures. % In this note we show that all distance-regular graphs with diameter four and valency at least three admitting two…
We analyse properties of geometric intersection graphs to show the strict containment between some natural classes of geometric intersection graphs. In particular, we show the following properties: - A graph $G$ is outerplanar if and only…
In his PhD Thesis, E.R. Scheinerman conjectured that planar graphs are intersection graphs of line segments in the plane. This conjecture was proved with two different approaches by J. Chalopin and the author, and by the author, L.…
A transitive graph is 2-dimensional if it can be represented as the intersection of two linear orders. Such representations make answering of reachability queries trivial, and allow many problems that are NP-hard on arbitrary graphs to be…
We solve the conjecture posed by Fill, Scheinerman and Singer-Cohen and show the equivalence of the sharp threshold functions of the random intersection graph G(n,m,p) with $m >= n^3$ and a graph in which each edge appears independently.…
Let $L$ be a sequence $(\ell_1,\ell_2,\ldots,\ell_n)$ of $n$ lines in $\mathbb{C}^3$. We define the {\it intersection graph} $G_L=([n],E)$ of $L$, where $[n]:=\{1,\ldots, n\}$, and with $\{i,j\}\in E$ if and only if $i\neq j$ and the…
In this paper, we investigate pattern avoidance of parity restricted (even or odd) Grassmannian permutations for patterns of sizes 3 and 4. We use a combination of direct counting and bijective techniques to provide recurrence relations,…
A graph $G$ is a $D\!D_2$-graph if it has a pair $(D,D_2)$ of disjoint sets of vertices of $G$ such that $D$ is a dominating set and $D_2$ is a 2-dominating set of $G$. We provide several characterizations and hardness results concerning…
For any metric $d$ on $\mathbb{R}^2$, an ($\mathbb{R}^2,d$)-geometric graph is a graph whose vertices are points in $\mathbb{R}^2$, and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their distance is at most 1. If $d=\|.\|_{\infty}$, the metric…
We initiate the study of diameter computation in geometric intersection graphs from the fine-grained complexity perspective. A geometric intersection graph is a graph whose vertices correspond to some shapes in $d$-dimensional Euclidean…
Poisson brackets admit infinitesimal symmetries which are encoded using oriented graphs; this construction is due to Kontsevich (1996). We formulate several open problems about combinatorial and topological properties of the graphs…
Almost Moore mixed graphs\/} appear in the context of the degree/diameter problem as a class of extremal mixed graphs, in the sense that their order is one unit less than the Moore bound for such graphs. The problem of their existence has…
Let $D$ be a division ring, $n$ a positive integer, and GL$_n(D)$ the general linear group of degree $n$ over $D$. In this paper, we study the induced subgraph of the intersection graph of GL$_n(D)$ generated by all non-trivial proper…
We present a simplified exposition of some classical and modern results on graph drawings in the plane. These results are chosen so that they illustrate some spectacular recent higher-dimensional results on the border of topology and…
This study is the first part of a detailed study on Type-2 isomorphic circulant graphs having ten parts \cite{v2-1}-\cite{v2-10}. Circulant graphs $C_n(R)$ and $C_n(S)$ are said to be \emph{Adam's isomorphic} if there exist some $a\in…
The Steiner distance of a graph, introduced by Chartrand, Oellermann, Tian and Zou in 1989, is a natural generalization of the concept of classical graph distance. For a connected graph $G$ of order at least $2$ and $S\subseteq V(G)$, the…
The $\gamma$-graph of a graph $G$ is the graph whose vertices are labelled by the minimum dominating sets of $G$, in which two vertices are adjacent when their corresponding minimum dominating sets (each of size $\gamma(G)$) intersect in a…
We discuss a 1+2 dimensional model with unconventional supersymmetry at the boundary of an AdS${}_4$, \,$\mathcal{N}$-extended supergravity. The resulting features of the supersymmetric boundary open the possibility of describing the…
