A {\it star-factor} of a graph $G$ is a spanning subgraph of $G$ such that each of its component is a star. Clearly, every graph without isolated vertices has a star factor. A graph $G$ is called {\it star-uniform} if all star-factors of…
Let $K$ be a set of $k$ positive integers. A biclique cover of type $K$ of a graph $G$ is a collection of complete bipartite subgraphs of $G$ such that for every edge $e$ of $G$, the number of bicliques need to cover $e$ is a member of $K$.…
A star edge coloring of a graph is a proper edge coloring with no $2$-colored path or cycle of length four. The star chromatic index $\chi'_{st}(G)$ of $G$ is the minimum number $t$ for which $G$ has a star edge coloring with $t$ colors. We…
Given graphs H_1,...,H_k, we study the minimum order of a graph G such that for each i, the induced copies of H_i in G cover V(G). We prove a general upper bound of twice the sum of the numbers m_i, where m_i is one less than the order of…

A tessellation of a graph is a partition of its vertices into vertex disjoint cliques. A tessellation cover of a graph is a set of tessellations that covers all of its edges, and the tessellation cover number, denoted by $T(G)$, is the size…
For a given graph $H$, its subdivisions carry the same topological structure. The existence of $H$-subdivisions within a graph $G$ has deep connections with topological, structural and extremal properties of $G$. One prominent example of…
A bisection of a graph is a bipartition of its vertex set such that the two resulting parts differ in size by at most 1, and its size is the number of edges that connect vertices in the two parts. The perfect matching condition and…
