A class of graphs is $\chi$-bounded if there exists a function $f:\mathbb N\rightarrow \mathbb N$ such that for every graph $G$ in the class and an induced subgraph $H$ of $G$, if $H$ has no clique of size $q+1$, then the chromatic number…

A Hamiltonian embedding is an embedding of a graph $G$ such that the boundary of each face is a Hamiltonian cycle of $G$. It is shown that the hypercube graph $Q_n$ admits such an embedding on an orientable surface when $n$ is a power of 2.…

The Surjective Homomorphism problem is to test whether a given graph G called the guest graph allows a vertex-surjective homomorphism to some other given graph H called the host graph. The bijective and injective homomorphism problems can…

An identifying code of a graph is a subset of its vertices such that every vertex of the graph is uniquely identified by the set of its neighbours within the code. We show a dichotomy for the size of the smallest identifying code in classes…

A homomorphism from a graph G to a graph H is locally bijective, surjective, or injective if its restriction to the neighborhood of every vertex of G is bijective, surjective, or injective, respectively. We prove that the problems of…

For a given multigraph H, a graph G is H-linked, if |G| \geq |H| and for every injective map {\tau}: V (H) \rightarrow V (G), we can find internally disjoint paths in G, such that every edge from uv in H corresponds to a {\tau} (u) - {\tau}…

Given a graph $G$, the graph $[G]$ obtained by adding, for each pair of vertices of $G$, a unique vertex adjacent to both vertices is called the binding graph of $G$. In this work, we show that the class of binding graphs is…

For a class $\mathcal{H}$ of graphs, #Sub$(\mathcal{H})$ is the counting problem that, given a graph $H\in \mathcal{H}$ and an arbitrary graph $G$, asks for the number of subgraphs of $G$ isomorphic to $H$. It is known that if $\mathcal{H}$…

Graph embeddings deal with injective maps from a given simple, undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ into a metric space, such as $\mathbb{R}^n$ with the Euclidean metric. This concept is widely studied in computer science, see \cite{ge1}, but also…

A graph $G$ contains $H$ as an \emph{immersion} if there is an injective mapping $\phi: V(H)\rightarrow V(G)$ such that for each edge $uv\in E(H)$, there is a path $P_{uv}$ in $G$ joining vertices $\phi(u)$ and $\phi(v)$, and all the paths…

A homomorphism from a graph $G$ to a graph $H$ is an edge-preserving mapping from $V(G)$ to $V(H)$. For a fixed graph $H$, in the list homomorphism problem, denoted by LHom($H$), we are given a graph $G$, whose every vertex $v$ is equipped…

A graph $G$ on $n$ vertices is Hamiltonian if it contains a spanning cycle, and pancyclic if it contains cycles of all lengths from 3 to $n$. In 1984, Fan presented a degree condition involving every pair of vertices at distance two for a…

Suppose $S$ is a closed, oriented surface of genus at least two. This paper investigates the geometry of the homology multicurve complex, $\mathcal{HC}(S,\alpha)$, of $S$; a complex closely related to complexes studied by…

We study the \textsc{Max Partial $H$-Coloring} problem: given a graph $G$, find the largest induced subgraph of $G$ that admits a homomorphism into $H$, where $H$ is a fixed pattern graph without loops. Note that when $H$ is a complete…

For graphs $G$ and $H$, an $H$-coloring of $G$ is an edge-preserving mapping from $V(G)$ to $V(H)$. Note that if $H$ is the triangle, then $H$-colorings are equivalent to $3$-colorings. In this paper we are interested in the case that $H$…

A class of graphs is $\chi$-bounded if there is a function $f$ such that $\chi(G)\le f(\omega(G))$ for every induced subgraph $G$ of every graph in the class, where $\chi,\omega$ denote the chromatic number and clique number of $G$…

Given two graphs $G$ and $H$, we say that $G$ contains $H$ as an induced minor if a graph isomorphic to $H$ can be obtained from $G$ by a sequence of vertex deletions and edge contractions. We study the complexity of Graph Isomorphism on…

Let $D$ be an orientation of a simple graph. Given $u,v\in V(D)$, a directed shortest $(u,v)$-path is a $(u,v)$-geodesic. $S \subseteq V(D)$ is convex if, for every $u,v \in S$, the vertices in each $(u,v)$-geodesic and in each…

We study the Induced $H$ Partition problem from the parameterized complexity point of view. In the Induced $H$ Partition problem the task is to partition vertices of a graph $G$ into sets $V_1,V_2,\dots,V_n$ such that the graph $H$ is…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is a geometric intersection graph if every node $v \in V$ is identified with a geometric object of some particular type, and two nodes are adjacent if the corresponding objects intersect. Geometric intersection graph…
