We develop the basic and new tools for classifying non-side-to-side tilings of the sphere by congruent triangles. Then we prove that, if the triangle has any irrational angle in degree, such tilings are: a sequence of 1-parameter families…
A normal odd partition T of the edges of a cubic graph is a partition into trails of odd length (no repeated edge) such that each vertex is the end vertex of exactly one trail of the partition and internal in some trail. For each vertex v,…
In graph theory, a graceful labeling of a graph with m edges is a labeling of its vertices with a subset of the integers ranging from 0 to m inclusive, such that no two vertices share a label, and each edge is uniquely identified by the…
Partial cubes are isometric subgraphs of hypercubes. Structures on a graph defined by means of semicubes, and Djokovi\'{c}'s and Winkler's relations play an important role in the theory of partial cubes. These structures are employed in the…
We prove that pseudoholomorphic curves intersect complex 2-cycles positively in almost complex 4-manifolds. This makes possible a general and conceptually simple proof that an almost complex 4-manifold with many curves admits a taming…
Given any complex number $a$, we prove that there are infinitely many simple roots of the equation $\zeta(s)=a$ with arbitrarily large imaginary part. Besides, we give a heuristic interpretation of a certain regularity of the graph of the…
We consider the generalised friendship paradox, focussing on the number of triangles at a vertex as the relevant attribute. We show that, contrary to the setting where the attribute is the number of edges at a vertex or the number of wedges…
A fourientation of a graph is a choice for each edge of the graph whether to orient that edge in either direction, leave it unoriented, or biorient it. Fixing a total order on the edges and a reference orientation of the graph, we…
We provide a unique decomposition of every 4-connected graph into parts that are either quasi-5-connected, cycles of triangle-torsos and 3-connected torsos on $\leq 5$ vertices, generalised double-wheels, or thickened $K_{4,m}$'s. The…
Let $G$ be a finite, non-abelian group of the form $G = A N$, where $A \leq G$ is abelian, and $N \trianglelefteq G$ is cyclic. We prove that the commuting graph $\Gamma(G)$ of $G$ is either a connected graph of diameter at most four, or…
Tuza famously conjectured in 1981 that in a graph without k+1 edge-disjoint triangles, it suffices to delete at most 2k edges to obtain a triangle-free graph. The conjecture holds for graphs with small treewidth or small maximum average…
An edge of a graph of order $n$ is pancyclic if it lies in a cycle of every length $3,\ldots,n$. A graph of order $n$ is vertex-pancyclic if every vertex lies in a cycle of every length $3,\ldots,n$. Recently, Li and Zhan proved that every…
A hole is a chordless cycle with at least four vertices. A hole is odd if it has an odd number of vertices. A dart is a graph which vertices $a, b, c, d, e$ and edges $ab, bc, bd, be, cd, de$. Dart-free graphs have been actively studied in…
We interpret realizations of a graph on the sphere up to rotations as elements of a moduli space of curves of genus zero. We focus on those graphs that admit an assignment of edge lengths on the sphere resulting in a flexible object. Our…
Just how many different connected shapes result from slicing a cube along some of its edges and unfolding it into the plane? In this article we answer this question by viewing the cube both as a surface and as a graph of vertices and edges.…
We discuss the question whether the existence of perfect matchings in a cubic graph can be seen from the spectrum of its adjacency matrix. For regular graphs in general and for three edge-disjoint perfect matchings in a cubic graph (that…
A graph $G$ is $(I,F)$-partitionable if its vertex set can be partitioned into two parts such that one part is an independent set, and the other induces a forest. In this paper, we prove that every planar graph without cycles of length $4,…
We prove that a graph with a cut vertex whose deletion produces at least five connected components must be missing a connected partition of some type. We prove that this also holds if there are four connected components that each have at…
A graph is called {\em half-arc-transitive} if its full automorphism group acts transitively on vertices and edges, but not on arcs. It is well known that for any prime $p$ there is no tetravalent half-arc-transitive graph of order $p$ or…
In this short note, we prove that for \beta < 1/5 every graph G with n vertices and n^{2-\beta} edges contains a subgraph G' with at least cn^{2-2\beta} edges such that every pair of edges in G' lie together on a cycle of length at most 8.…
