We study the connection between the degree sequence of a $k$-uniform hypergraph and the size of its largest matching. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices and let $d_1 \ge d_2 \ge \dots \ge d_n$ be the vertex…

Token ring topology has been frequently used in the design of distributed loop computer networks and one measure of its performance is the diameter. We propose an algorithm for constructing hamiltonian graphs with $n$ vertices and maximum…

Resolving an open question from 2006, we prove the existence of light-weight bounded-degree spanners for unit ball graphs in the metrics of bounded doubling dimension, and we design a simple $\mathcal{O}(\log^*n)$-round distributed…

We consider sufficient conditions for the existence of $k$-th powers of Hamiltonian cycles in $n$-vertex graphs $G$ with minimum degree $\mu n$ for arbitrarily small $\mu>0$. About 20 years ago Koml\'os, Sark\"ozy, and Szemer\'edi resolved…

We provide a new lower bound on the number of $(\leq k)$-edges of a set of $n$ points in the plane in general position. We show that for $0 \leq k \leq\lfloor\frac{n-2}{2}\rfloor$ the number of $(\leq k)$-edges is at least $$ E_k(S) \geq…

In this paper, we prove two results about the signless Laplacian spectral radius $q(G)$ of a graph $G$ of order $n$ with maximum degree $\Delta$. Let $B_{n}=K_{2}+\overline{K_{n}}$ denote a book, i.e., the graph $B_{n}$ consists of $n$…

We investigate decompositions of a graph into a small number of low diameter subgraphs. Let P(n,\epsilon,d) be the smallest k such that every graph G=(V,E) on n vertices has an edge partition E=E_0 \cup E_1 \cup ... \cup E_k such that |E_0|…

Let $\{e_{1},\ldots,e_{n}\}$ be the standard basis of abelian group $Z_{2}^{n}$, which can be also viewed as a linear space of dimension $n$ over the Galois filed $F_{2}$, and $\epsilon_{k}=e_k+e_{k+1}+\cdots+e_n$ for some $1\le k\le n-1$.…

In a graph whose vertices are assigned integer ranks, a path is well-ranked if the endpoints have distinct ranks or some interior point has a higher rank than the endpoints. A ranking is an assignment of ranks such that all nontrivial paths…

Let $\lambda(G)$ be the smallest number of vertices that can be removed from a non-empty graph $G$ so that the resulting graph has a smaller maximum degree. Let $\lambda_{\rm e}(G)$ be the smallest number of edges that can be removed from…

We analyse an extremal question on the degrees of the link graphs of a finite regular graph, that is, the subgraphs induced by non-trivial spheres. We show that if $G$ is $d$-regular and connected but not complete then some link graph of…

A {\it good drawing} of a graph $G$ is a drawing where the edges are non-self-intersecting and each two edges have at most one point in common, which is either a common end vertex or a crossing. The {\it crossing number} of a graph $G$ is…

Erd\H{o}s, Pach, Pollack and Tuza [J. Combin. Theory, B 47, (1989), 279-285] conjectured that the diameter of a $K_{2r}$-free connected graph of order $n$ and minimum degree $\delta\geq 2$ is at most $\frac{2(r-1)(3r+2)}{(2r^2-1)}\cdot…

The degree/diameter problem is the problem of finding the largest possible number of vertices $n_{\Delta,D}$ in a graph of given degree $\Delta$ and diameter $D$. We consider the problem for the case of diameter $D=2$. William G Brown gave…

The graphs $D(k,q)$ have connected components $CD(k,q)$ giving the best known bounds on extremal problems with {\em forbidden\/} even cycles, and are denser than the well-known graphs of Lubotzky, Phillips, Sarnak and Margulis. Despite…

A topological graph is $k$-quasi-planar if it does not contain $k$ pairwise crossing edges. A 20-year-old conjecture asserts that for every fixed $k$, the maximum number of edges in a $k$-quasi-planar graph on $n$ vertices is $O(n)$. Fox…

In this note we prove that for every integer $k$, there exist constants $g_{1}(k)$ and $g_{2}(k)$ such that the following holds. If $G$ is a graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree $\Delta$ then it contains an induced subgraph $H$ on at…

The $n$-dimensional hypercube $Q_n$ is a graph with vertex set $\{0,1\}^n$ such that there is an edge between two vertices if and only if they differ in exactly one coordinate. For any graph $H$, define $\text{ex}(Q_n,H)$ to be the maximum…

For an input graph $G$, an additive spanner is a sparse subgraph $H$ whose shortest paths match those of $G$ up to small additive error. We prove two new lower bounds in the area of additive spanners: 1) We construct $n$-node graphs $G$ for…

Recently Chase determined the maximum possible number of cliques of size $t$ in a graph on $n$ vertices with given maximum degree. Soon afterward, Chakraborti and Chen answered the version of this question in which we ask that the graph…
