Let $\Gamma$ be a finite simplicial graph with at least two vertices, and let $G(\Gamma)$ be the associated right-angled Artin group. We describe a locally compact group $\mathcal U$ containing $G(\Gamma)$ as a cocompact lattice. If…

Given a finite graph G there is a corresponding group given by the presentation with generators the vertices of G and a relation [x,y]=1 for generators x and y precisely when (x,y) is an edge of G. Such groups are known as partially…

Graph homomorphism has been an important research topic since its introduction [17]. Stated in the language of binary relational structures in that paper [17], Lov\'asz proved a fundamental theorem that, for a graph $H$ given by its $0$-$1$…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of $L^2$-subgroup rigid groups and demonstrate that free groups are $L^2$-subgroup rigid. As a consequence, we establish the equivalence between compressibility, inertness, strong inertness, and…

We consider random perfect matchings on a general class of contracting bipartite graphs by letting certain edge weights be 0 on the contracting square-hexagon lattice in a periodic way. We obtain a deterministic limit shape in the scaling…

The recent paper "Linear Connectivity Forces Large Complete Bipartite Minors" by Boehme et al. relies on a structure theorem for graphs with no H-minor. The sketch provided of how to deduce this theorem from the work of Robertson and…

Frucht showed that, for any finite group $G$, there exists a cubic graph such that its automorphism group is isomorphic to $G$. For groups generated by two elements we simplify his construction to a graph with fewer nodes. In the general…

Recently, Cochran and Harvey defined torsion-free derived series of groups and proved an injectivity theorem on the associated torsion-free quotients. We show that there is a universal construction which extends such an injectivity theorem…

A foundational theorem of Laman provides a counting characterisation of the finite simple graphs whose generic bar-joint frameworks in two dimensions are infinitesimally rigid. Recently a Laman-type characterisation was obtained for…

In this paper we strengthen a result due to Li by showing that the third bi-power of a locally finite connected bipartite graph that admits a perfect matching is Hamilton-laceable, i.e. any two vertices from different bipartition classes…

We demonstrate that when a graph exhibits a specific type of symmetry, it satisfies the Union Closed Conjecture(UCC). Additionally, we show that certain graph classes, such as Cylindrical Grid Graphs and Torus Grid Graphs also satisfy the…

Every homomorphism from finite index subgroups of a universal lattices to mapping class groups of orientable surfaces (possibly with punctures), or to outer automorphism groups of finitely generated nonabelian free groups must have finite…

Robertson and Seymour proved that the relation of graph immersion is well-quasi-ordered for finite graphs. Their proof uses the results of graph minors theory. Surprisingly, there is a very short proof of the corresponding rough structure…

We prove that for every prime $p$ algebraically clean graphs of groups are virtually residually $p$-finite and cohomologically $p$-complete. We also prove that they are cohomologically good. We apply this to certain $2$-dimensional Artin…

We exactly settle the complexity of graph realization, graph rigidity, and graph global rigidity as applied to three types of graphs: "globally noncrossing" graphs, which avoid crossings in all of their configurations; matchstick graphs,…
