It is easy to see that in a connected graph any 2 longest paths have a vertex in common. For k>=7, Skupien in [7] obtained a connected graph in which some k longest paths have no common vertex, but every k-1 longest paths have a common…

A resolving set for a graph $\Gamma$ is a collection of vertices $S$, chosen so that for each vertex $v$, the list of distances from $v$ to the members of $S$ uniquely specifies $v$. The metric dimension of $\Gamma$ is the smallest size of…

The Zero divisor Graph of a commutative ring $R$, denoted by $\Gamma[R]$, is a graph whose vertices are non-zero zero divisors of $R$ and two vertices are adjacent if their product is zero. In this paper we derive the Vertex and Edge…

Let $\Gamma$ denote a $Q$-polynomial distance-regular graph with diameter at least three and standard module $V$. We introduce two direct sum decompositions of $V$. We call these the displacement decomposition for $\Gamma$ and the split…

In this paper, we study the $q$-distance matrix for a distance-regular graph and show that the $q$-distance matrix of a distance-regular graph with classical parameters ($D, q, \alpha, \beta$) has exactly three distinct eigenvalues, of…

The concept of pseudo-distance-regularity around a vertex of a graph is a natural generalization, for non-regular graphs, of the standard distance-regularity around a vertex. In this note, we prove that a pseudo-distance-regular graph…

It is known that if $n$ vertices can be removed from a connected graph $\Gamma$ so that no subgraphs isomorphic to the graph $K$ remain, then no more than $|V(K)|\cdot n$ vertices can be removed, forming a set invariant with respect to all…

Given a finite simple graph $\Gamma$ on $n$ vertices its complementary prism is the graph $\Gamma\bar{\Gamma}$ that is obtained from $\Gamma$ and its complement $\bar{\Gamma}$ by adding a perfect matching, where each its edge connects two…

The Fibonacci cube $\Gamma_n$ is is the graph whose vertices are independent subsets of the path graph of length $n$, where two such vertices are considered adjacent if they differ by the addition or removal of a single element. Klav\v{z}ar…

Let $\Gamma$ denote a distance-regular graph with classical parameters $(D,b,\alpha,\beta)$ and $b\not=1$, $\alpha=b-1$. The condition on $\alpha$ implies that $\Gamma$ is formally self-dual. For $b=q^2$ we use the adjacency matrix and dual…

A nonempty $k$-regular graph $\Gamma$ on $n$ vertices is called a Deza graph if there exist constants $b$ and $a$ $(b \geq a)$ such that any pair of distinct vertices of $\Gamma$ has precisely either $b$ or $a$ common neighbours. The…

We focus on strongly connected, strong for short, digraphs since in this setting distance is defined for every pair of vertices. Distance ideals generalize the spectrum and Smith normal form of several distance matrices associated with…

The canonical double cover $\mathrm{D}(\Gamma)$ of a graph $\Gamma$ is the direct product of $\Gamma$ and $K_2$. If $\mathrm{Aut}(\mathrm{D}(\Gamma))=\mathrm{Aut}(\Gamma)\times\mathbb{Z}_2$ then $\Gamma$ is called stable; otherwise $\Gamma$…

Let $\Gamma$ be a simple finite graph with vertex set $V(\Gamma)$ and edge set $E(\Gamma)$. Let $\mathcal{R}$ be an equivalence relation on $V(\Gamma)$. The $\mathcal{R}$-super $\Gamma$ graph $\Gamma^{\mathcal{R}}$ is a simple graph with…

Fix $c\in (0,1)$ and let $\Gamma$ be a $\lfloor c n\rfloor$-regular digraph on $n$ vertices drawn uniformly at random. We prove that when $n$ is large, the (non-symmetric) adjacency matrix $M$ of $\Gamma$ is invertible with high…

Let $\Gamma=(V,E)$ be a graph of order $n$. A {\em closed distance magic labeling} of $\Gamma$ is a bijection $\ell : V \to \{1,2, \ldots, n\}$ for which there exists a positive integer $r$ such that $\sum_{x \in N[u]} \ell(x) = r$ for all…
