In this paper, we discover all the triangle-free graphs that are competition graphs of multipartite tournaments.
In this paper, we completely characterize the $m$-step competition graph of a bipartite tournament for any integer $m \ge 2$. In addition, we compute the competition index and the competition period of a bipartite tournament.
In this note we give a combinatorial characterization of all the unmixed bipartite graphs.
In this paper, we study $(1,2)$-step competition graphs of bipartite tournaments. A bipartite tournament means an orientation of a complete bipartite graph. We show that the $(1,2)$-step competition graph of a bipartite tournament has at…
Ranking the participants of a tournament has applications in voting, paired comparisons analysis, sports and other domains. In this paper we introduce bipartite tournaments, which model situations in which two different kinds of entity…
The niche graph of a digraph $D$ has $V(D)$ as the vertex set and an edge $uv$ if and only if $(u,w) \in A(D)$ and $(v,w) \in A(D)$, or $(w,u) \in A(D)$ and $(w,v) \in A(D)$ for some $w \in V(D)$. The notion of niche graph was introduced by…
A multipartite tournament is an orientation of a complete $k$-partite graph for some positive integer $k\geq 3$. We say that a multipartite tournament $D$ is tight if every partite set forms a clique in the $(1,2)$-step competition graph,…

A classification is given of all the countable homogeneous ordered bipartite graphs.
This paper is a survey on Extremal Graph Theory, primarily focusing on the case when one of the excluded graphs is bipartite. On one hand we give an introduction to this field and also describe many important results, methods, problems, and…
A regular bipartite tournament is an orientation of a complete balanced bipartite graph $K_{2n,2n}$ where every vertex has its in- and outdegree both equal to $n$. In 1981, Jackson conjectured that any regular bipartite tournament can be…
In this article, we introduce the notion of the double competition multigraph of a digraph. We give characterizations of the double competition multigraphs of arbitrary digraphs, loopless digraphs, reflexive digraphs, and acyclic digraphs…
We determine which properties of 2-layer drawings characterise bipartite graphs of bounded pathwidth.
Bipartite graphs have received some attention in the study of social networks and of biological mutualistic systems. A generalization of a previous model is presented, that evolves the topology of the graph in order to optimally account for…
In this paper, we investigate odd graceful graph, odd strongly harmonious graph, bipartite graph and their relationship. We proved following results: (1) if G is odd strongly harmonious graph, then G is odd graceful graph ;(2) if G is…
In this paper we study the main characteristics of some evaluation codes parameterized by the edges of a bipartite graph with a perfect matching.
Decomposing a digraph into subdigraphs with a fixed structure or property is a classical problem in graph theory and a useful tool in a number of applications of networks and communication. A digraph is strongly connected if it contains a…
A digraph is semicomplete multipartite if its underlying graph is a complete multipartite graph. As a special case of semicomplete multipartite digraphs, J{\o}rgensen et al. \cite{JG14} initiated the study of doubly regular team…
We consider a set of cliques in any multipartite graph with two vertices in each part. Moreover, we construct a class of peculiar polytopes. Key words: multipartite graph, clique, polytope.
The class of bipartite permutation graphs enjoys many nice and important properties. In particular, this class is critically important in the study of clique- and rank-width of graphs, because it is one of the minimal hereditary classes of…
