Let $G=(V, E)$ be a graph where $V$ and $E$ are the vertex and edge set, respectively. For two disjoint subsets $A$ and $B$, we say $A$ dominates $B$ if every vertex of $B$ is adjacent to at least one vertex of $A$. A vertex partition $\pi…
In this article, we introduce the notion of a wedge of graphs and provide detailed computations for the independence complex of a wedge of path and cycle graphs. In particular, we show that these complexes are either contractible or wedges…
Edge polytopes is a class of interesting polytope with rich algebraic and combinatorial properties, which was introduced by Ohsugi and Hibi. In this papar, we follow a previous study on cutting edge polytopes by Hibi, Li and Zhang. Instead…
Graph embedding is a powerful method in parallel computing that maps a guest network $G$ into a host network $H$. The performance of an embedding can be evaluated by certain parameters, such as the dilation, the edge congestion and the…
This paper considers *-graphs in which all vertices have degree 4 or 6, and studies the question of calculating the genus of orientable 2-surfaces into which such graphs may be embedded. A *-graph is a graph endowed with a formal adjacency…
A longstanding open question of Archdeacon and Craft asks whether every complete graph has a minimum genus embedding with at most one nontriangular face. We exhibit such an embedding for each complete graph except $K_8$, the complete graph…
In this paper we provide a principled approach to solve a transductive classification problem involving a similar graph (edges tend to connect nodes with same labels) and a dissimilar graph (edges tend to connect nodes with opposing…
It is shown that exactly 7 distance-transitive cubic graphs among the existing 12 possess a particular ultrahomogeneous property with respect to oriented cycles realizing the girth that allows the construction of a related Cayley digraph…
In this paper we completely characterize the graphs which have an edge weighted adjacency matrix belonging to the class of $n \times n$ involutions with spectrum equal to $\{ \lambda_1^{n-2}, \lambda_2^{2} \}$ for some $\lambda_1$ and some…
We introduce a new class of intersection graphs, the edge intersection graphs of paths on a triangular grid, called EPGt graphs. We show similarities and differences from this new class to the well-known class of EPG graphs. A turn of a…
Given two graphs, a mapping between their edge-sets is cycle-continuous, if the preimage of every cycle is a cycle. The motivation for this notion is Jaeger's conjecture that for every bridgeless graph there is a cycle-continuous mapping to…
For a graph $G=(V,E),$ a matching $M$ is a set of independent edges. The topic of matchings is well studied in graph theory. In this paper many varieties of matchings are discussed.
We exactly settle the complexity of graph realization, graph rigidity, and graph global rigidity as applied to three types of graphs: "globally noncrossing" graphs, which avoid crossings in all of their configurations; matchstick graphs,…
A connected graph $\Gamma=(V,E)$ of valency at least $3$ is called a basic $2$-arc-transitive graph if its full automorphism group has a subgroup $G$ with the following properties: (i) $G$ acts transitively on the set of $2$-arcs of…
A graph $G$ is well-covered if all maximal independent sets are of the same cardinality. Let $w:V(G) \longrightarrow\mathbb{R}$ be a weight function. Then $G$ is $w$-well-covered if all maximal independent sets are of the same weight. An…
A graph is maximal knotless if it is edge maximal for the property of knotless embedding in $R^3$. We show that such a graph has at least $\frac74 |V|$ edges, and construct an infinite family of maximal knotless graphs with $|E| <…
In this paper we present a characterisation, by an infinite family of minimal forbidden induced subgraphs, of proper circular arc graphs which are intersection graphs of paths on a grid, where each path has at most one bend (turn).
In this paper, a complete classification of finite simple cubic vertex-transitive graphs of girth $6$ is obtained. It is proved that every such graph, with the exception of the Desargues graph on $20$ vertices, is either a skeleton of a…
A complete list of all connected arc-transitive asymmetric digraphs of in-valence and out-valence 2 on up to 1000 vertices is presented. As a byproduct, a complete list of all connected 4-valent graphs admitting a half-arc-transitive group…
We take an elementary and systematic approach to the problem of extending the Tutte polynomial to the setting of embedded graphs. Four notions of embedded graphs arise naturally when considering deletion and contraction operations on graphs…
