A graph is called weakly perfect if its vertex chromatic number equals its clique number. Let $R$ be a ring and $I(R)^*$ be the set of all left proper non-trivial ideals of $R$. The intersection graph of ideals of $R$, denoted by $G(R)$, is…

An independent dominating set of the simple graph $G=(V,E)$ is a vertex subset that is both dominating and independent in $G$. The independent domination polynomial of a graph $G$ is the polynomial $D_i(G,x)=\sum_{A} x^{|A|}$, summed over…

The proper connection number $pc(G)$ of a connected graph $G$ is defined as the minimum number of colors needed to color its edges, so that every pair of distinct vertices of $G$ is connected by at least one path in $G$ such that no two…

Let R be a commutative ring with identity, and let I be an ideal of R. The zero-divisor graph of R with respect to I, denoted by $\Gamma_I(R)$, is the graph whose vertices are the set $\{x \in R \setminus I | xy \in I$ for some $y \in R…

The main focus of this thesis is a generalization of covering arrays, covering arrays on graphs. Two vectors v,w in Z_k^n are qualitatively independent if for all ordered pairs (a,b) in Z_k x Z_k there is a position i in the vectors where…

In this paper, we introduce a family of graphs which is a generalization of zero-divisor graphs and compute an upper-bound for the diameter of such graphs. We also investigate their cycles and cores.

Call a simple graph $H$ of order $n$ well-separable, if by deleting a separator set of size $o(n)$ the leftover will have components of size at most $o(n)$. We prove, that bounded degree well-separable spanning subgraphs are easy to embed:…

A non-commuting graph of a finite group $G$ is a graph whose vertices are non-central elements of $G$ and two vertices are adjacent if they don't commute in $G$. In this paper, we study the non-commuting graph of the group $U_{6n}$ and…

The divisor theory of graphs views a finite connected graph $G$ as a discrete version of a Riemann surface. Divisors on $G$ are formal integral combinations of the vertices of $G$, and linear equivalence of divisors is determined by the…

A graph is called a $k$-planar unit distance graph if it can be drawn in the plane such that every edge is a unit line segment and is involved in at most $k$ crossings. We investigate $u_k(n)$, the maximum number of edges of such graphs on…

For a ring $R$, the zero-divisor graph is a simple graph $\Gamma(R)$ whose vertex set is the set of all non-zero zero-divisors in a ring $R$, and two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $xy=0$ or $yx=0$ in $R$. By…

A graph $H$ is said to be positive if the homomorphism density $t_H(G)$ is non-negative for all weighted graphs $G$. The positive graph conjecture proposes a characterisation of such graphs, saying that a graph is positive if and only if it…

Let \pi(G) denote the set of prime divisors of the order of a finite group G. The prime graph of G is the graph with vertex set \pi(G) with edges {p,q} if and only if there exists an element of order pq in G. In this paper, we prove that a…

We investigate the asymptotic structure of a random perfect graph $P_n$ sampled uniformly from the perfect graphs on vertex set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$. Our approach is based on the result of Pr\"omel and Steger that almost all perfect graphs are…

Since planar triangle-free graphs are 3-colourable, such a graph with n vertices has an independent set of size at least n/3. We prove that unless the graph contains a certain obstruction, its independence number is at least n/(3-epsilon)…

Let $(A, \oplus, *, 0)$ be an MV-algebra, $(A, \odot, 0)$ be the associated commutative semigroup, and $I$ be an ideal of $A$. Define the ideal-based zero-divisor graph $\Gamma_{I}(A)$ of $A$ with respect to $I$ to be a simple graph with…

We consider graphs on monomials in $n$ variables of a fixed degree $d$ where two monomials are adjacent if and only if their least common multiple has degree $d+1$. We prove that when $n = 3$ and $d$ is divisible by $3$ as well as when…

A good edge-labelling of a simple graph is a labelling of its edges with real numbers such that, for any ordered pair of vertices (u,v), there is at most one nondecreasing path from u to v. Say a graph is good if it admits a good…

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…

A perfect code in a graph is an independent set of the graph such that every vertex outside the set is adjacent to exactly one vertex in the set. A circulant graph is a Cayley graph of a cyclic group. In this paper we study perfect codes in…
