In this paper it is proved that there are constants 0< c_2< c_1 such that an asymptotic formula can be given for the the number of (labeled) n-vertex graphs of diameter d whenever n tends to infinity and 2 < d < n - c_1 (log n). A typical…

Let $d \geq 3$ be a fixed integer. We give an asympotic formula for the expected number of spanning trees in a uniformly random $d$-regular graph with $n$ vertices. (The asymptotics are as $n\to\infty$, restricted to even $n$ if $d$ is…

We prove an asymptotically tight lower bound on the average size of independent sets in a triangle-free graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree $d$, showing that an independent set drawn uniformly at random from such a graph has expected…

The celebrated Mantel's theorem states that any triangle-free graph on $n$ vertices contains at most $\left\lfloor n^2/4\right\rfloor$ edges. It is natural to ask how many triangles must exist in a graph with more than $\left\lfloor…

We provide precise asymptotic estimates for the number of several classes of labelled cubic planar graphs, and we analyze properties of such random graphs under the uniform distribution. This model was first analyzed by Bodirsky et al.…

We prove that any $n$-vertex graph whose complement is triangle-free contains $n^2/12-o(n^2)$ edge-disjoint triangles. This is tight for the disjoint union of two cliques of order $n/2$. We also prove a corresponding stability theorem, that…

We consider the set of all graphs on n labeled vertices with prescribed degrees D=(d_1, ..., d_n). For a wide class of tame degree sequences D we prove a computationally efficient asymptotic formula approximating the number of graphs within…

In 1999, De Simone and K\"{o}rner conjectured that every graph without induced $C_5,C_7,\overline{C}_7$ contains a clique cover $\mathcal C$ and a stable set cover $\mathcal I$ such that every clique in $\mathcal C$ and every stable set in…

We give a sharp bound on the number of triangles in a graph with fixed number of edges. We also characterize graphs that achieve the maximum number of triangles. Using the upper bound on number of triangles, we prove that if $G$ is a…

Paul Erd\H{o}s suggested the following problem: Determine or estimate the number of maximal triangle-free graphs on $n$ vertices. Here we show that the number of maximal triangle-free graphs is at most $2^{n^2/8+o(n^2)}$, which matches the…

Considering regular graphs with every edge in a triangle we prove lower bounds for the number of triangles in such graphs. For r-regular graphs with r <= 5 we exhibit families of graphs with exactly that number of triangles and then…

A graph is $k$-planar if it can be drawn in the plane such that no edge is crossed more than $k$ times. While for $k=1$, optimal $1$-planar graphs, i.e., those with $n$ vertices and exactly $4n-8$ edges, have been completely characterized,…

By the theorem of Mantel $[5]$ it is known that a graph with $n$ vertices and $\lfloor \frac{n^{2}}{4} \rfloor+1$ edges must contain a triangle. A theorem of Erd\H{o}s gives a strengthening: there are not only one, but at least…

We show that the number of independent sets in an N-vertex, d-regular graph is at most (2^{d+1} - 1)^{N/2d}, where the bound is sharp for a disjoint union of complete d-regular bipartite graphs. This settles a conjecture of Alon in 1991 and…

We prove that, for any $t\ge 3$, there exists a constant $c=c(t)>0$ such that any $d$-regular $n$-vertex graph with the second largest eigenvalue in absolute value~$\lambda$ satisfying $\lambda\le c d^{t-1}/n^{t-2}$ contains vertex-disjoint…

We prove that any graph on $n$ vertices with max degree $d$ has at most $q{d+1 \choose 3}+{r \choose 3}$ triangles, where $n = q(d+1)+r$, $0 \le r \le d$. This resolves a conjecture of Gan-Loh-Sudakov.
