The bipartition polynomial of a graph is a generalization of many other graph polynomials, including the domination, Ising, matching, independence, cut, and Euler polynomial. We show in this paper that it is also a powerful tool for proving…

Geometric graphs appear in many real-world data sets, such as road networks, sensor networks, and molecules. We investigate the notion of distance between embedded graphs and present a metric to measure the distance between two geometric…

A matchstick graph is a plane graph with edges drawn as unit distance line segments. This class of graphs was introduced by Harborth who conjectured that a matchstick graph on $n$ vertices can have at most $\lfloor 3n - \sqrt{12n -…

Using a notation of corner between edges when graph has a fixed rotation, i.e. cyclical order of edges around vertices, we define combinatorial objects - combinatorial maps as pairs of permutations, one for vertices and one for faces.…

Inspired by connections described in a recent paper by Mark L. Lewis, between the common divisor graph $\Ga(X)$ and the prime vertex graph $\Delta(X)$, for a set $X$ of positive integers, we define the bipartite divisor graph $B(X)$, and…

The eccentricity matrix of a simple connected graph is obtained from the distance matrix by only keeping the largest distances for each row and each column, whereas the remaining entries become zero. This matrix is also called the…

Given a graph $G$ then a subgraph $H$ is $isometric$ if, for every pair of vertices $u,v$ of $H$, we have $d_H(u,v) = d_G(u,v)$. We say a graph $G$ is $distance\ preserving\ (dp)$ if it has an isometric subgraph of every possible order up…

We study a class of complex polynomial equations on a finite graph with a view to understanding how holistic phenomena emerge from combinatorial structure. Particular solutions arise from orthogonal projections of regular polytopes,…

For a connected graph $G$, its resistance distance matrix is denoted by $R(G)$. A graph is called resistance regular if all the row (or column) sums of $R(G)$ are equal. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a simple connected…

In a graph A, for each two arbitrary vertices g, h with d(g,h)=2,|MAg2h|=mAg2h is introduced the number of edges of A that are closer to g than to h. We say A is a 2-edge distance-balanced graph if we have mAg2h=mAh2g. In this article, we…

A nonempty graph G is called generalized 3-distance-balanced, (3-GDB) whenever for every edge ab, |Wab|=3|Wba| or conversely. As well as a graph G is called generalized 3-nicely distance-balanced (3-GNDB) whenever for every edge ab of G,…

A $k$-block in a graph $G$ is a maximal set of at least $k$ vertices no two of which can be separated in $G$ by fewer than $k$ other vertices. The block number $\beta(G)$ of $G$ is the largest integer $k$ such that $G$ has a $k$-block. We…

It is known that complete multipartite graphs are determined by their distance spectrum but not by their adjacency spectrum. The Seidel spectrum of a graph $G$ on more than one vertex does not determine the graph, since any graph obtained…
