For planar graphs, we consider the problems of \emph{list edge coloring} and \emph{list total coloring}. Edge coloring is the problem of coloring the edges while ensuring that two edges that are adjacent receive different colors. Total…

A classic result in extremal graph theory, known as Mantel's theorem, states that every non-bipartite graph of order $n$ with size $m>\lfloor \frac{n^{2}}{4}\rfloor$ contains a triangle. Lin, Ning and Wu [Comb. Probab. Comput. 30 (2021)…

In this work we show that given a connectivity graph $G$ of a $[[n,k,d]]$ quantum code, there exists $\{K_i\}_i, K_i \subset G$, such that $\sum_i |K_i|\in \Omega(k), \ |K_i| \in \Omega(d)$, and the $K_i$'s are $\tilde{\Omega}(…

A graph of order $n>3$ is called {switching separable} if its modulo-2 sum with some complete bipartite graph on the same set of vertices is divided into two mutually independent subgraphs, each having at least two vertices. We prove the…

This paper proves the existence of $t$-identifying codes on the class of undirected de Bruijn graphs with string length $n$ and alphabet size $d$, referred to as $\mathcal{B}(d,n)$. It is shown that $\mathcal{B}(d,n)$ is $t$-identifiable…

Large graphs are sometimes studied through their degree sequences (power law or regular graphs). We study graphs that are uniformly chosen with a given degree sequence. Under mild conditions, it is shown that sequences of such graphs have…

To untangle a geometric graph means to move some of the vertices so that the resulting geometric graph has no crossings. Pach and Tardos [Discrete Comput. Geom., 2002] asked if every n-vertex geometric planar graph can be untangled while…

An identifying open code of a graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices that is both a separating open code (that is, $N_G(u) \cap S \ne N_G(v) \cap S$ for all distinct vertices $u$ and $v$ in $G$) and a total dominating set (that is, $N(v) \cap S…

An $(L,d)^*$-coloring is a mapping $\phi$ that assigns a color $\phi(v)\in L(v)$ to each vertex $v\in V(G)$ such that at most $d$ neighbors of $v$ receive colore $\phi(v)$. A graph is called $(m,d)^*$-choosable, if $G$ admits an…
