Although the strong embedding of a 3-connected planar graph $G$ on the sphere is unique, $G$ can have different inequivalent strong embeddings on a surface of positive genus. If $G$ is cubic, then the strong embeddings of $G$ on the…
In Grauert's paper [G] it is noted that finite dimensionality of cohomology groups sometimes implies vanishing of these cohomomogy groups. Later on Laufer formulated a zero or infinity law for the cohomology groups of domains in Stein…
This note proves that every graph of Euler genus $\mu$ is $\lceil 2 + \sqrt{3\mu + 3}\,\rceil$--choosable with defect 1 (that is, clustering 2). Thus, allowing defect as small as 1 reduces the choice number of surface embeddable graphs…
Let ${\rm ex \,} {\mathcal B}$ be a minor-closed class of graphs with a set ${\mathcal B}$ of minimal excluded minors. We study (a) the asymptotic number of graphs without $k+1$ disjoint minors in ${\mathcal B}$ and (b) the properties of a…
We investigate the geometry of \'etale $4:1$ coverings of smooth complex genus 2 curves with the monodromy group isomorphic to the Klein four-group. There are two cases, isotropic and non-isotropic depending on the values of the Weil…
A fundamental result in structural graph theory states that every graph with large average degree contains a large complete graph as a minor. We prove this result with the extra property that the minor is small with respect to the order of…
We give a density condition for when, subject to a necessary parity condition, an eulerian graph or digraph may be cellularly embedded in an orientable surface so that it has exactly two faces, each bounded by an euler circuit, one of which…
Unlike minors, the induced subgraph obstructions to bounded treewidth come in a large variety, including, for every $t\geq 1$, the $t$-basic obstructions: the graphs $K_{t+1}$ and $K_{t,t}$, along with the subdivisions of the $t$-by-$t$…
An immersion of a graph $H$ in a graph $G$ is a minimal subgraph $I$ of $G$ for which there is an injection ${{\rm i}} \colon V(H) \to V(I)$ and a set of edge-disjoint paths $\{P_e: e \in E(H)\}$ in $I$ such that the end vertices of…
Let $A$ be a finite commutative ring with unity $1 \neq 0.$ An ideal of $A$ is said to be essential if it has a non-zero intersection with every non-zero ideal of $A.$ The essential graph of $A$ is a simple undirected graph whose vertex set…
The subclass of Euler graphs with only one type of cycles under (mod 4) operation was studied in Part-1 of this series. It was established that such graphs under regularity are nonexistent for degree >2. Here we consider the subclass of…
In recent years, there has been significant interest in characterizing the induced subgraph obstructions to bounded treewidth and pathwidth. While this has recently been resolved for pathwidth, the case of treewidth remains open, and prior…
The maximum number of vertices in a graph of maximum degree $\Delta\ge 3$ and fixed diameter $k\ge 2$ is upper bounded by $(1+o(1))(\Delta-1)^{k}$. If we restrict our graphs to certain classes, better upper bounds are known. For instance,…
In this paper we study some geometric properties of surfaces in the Heisenberg group, $\mathcal{H}_{3}.$ We obtain, using the Gauss map for Lie groups, a partial classification of minimal graphs in $\mathcal{H}_{3}.$ We also proof the non…
We look at a graph property called reducibility which is closely related to a condition developed by Brown to evaluate Feynman integrals. We show for graphs with a fixed number of external momenta, that reducibility with respect to both…
This paper explores the structure of graphs defined by an excluded minor or an excluded odd minor through the lens of graph products and tree-decompositions. We prove that every graph excluding a fixed odd minor is contained in the strong…
The celebrated Erdos-Hajnal conjecture states that for every $n$-vertex undirected graph $H$ there exists $\eps(H)>0$ such that every graph $G$ that does not contain $H$ as an induced subgraph contains a clique or an independent set of size…
A connected graph is 2K2-free if it does not contain a pair of independent edges as an induced subgraph. In this paper, we present the structural characterization of minimal vertex separator and show that there are polynomial number of…
We study the potentially undecidable problem of whether a given 2-dimensional CW complex can be embedded into $\mathbb{R}^4$. We provide operations that preserve embeddability, including joining and cloning of 2-cells, as well as…
A graph coloring has bounded clustering if each monochromatic component has bounded size. This paper studies such a coloring, where the number of colors depends on an excluded complete bipartite subgraph. This is a much weaker assumption…
