In this article, the author proposes a new approach for the estimating of the number of edges in induced subgraphs of a special distance graph. Author significantly improves previous estimates and suggests a new approach to obtaining better…

It is known that families of graphs with a semialgebraic edge relation of bounded complexity satisfy much stronger regularity properties than arbitrary graphs, and that they can be decomposed into very homogeneous semialgebraic pieces up to…

A design graph is a regular bipartite graph in which any two distinct vertices of the same part have the same number of common neighbors. This class of graphs have a close relationship to strongly regular graphs. In this paper, we study the…

Recently normalized Laplacian matrices of graphs are studied as density matrices in quantum mechanics. Separability and entanglement of density matrices are important properties as they determine the nonclassical behavior in quantum…

We prove that the (non-symmetric) adjacency matrix of a uniform random $d$-regular directed graph on $n$ vertices is asymptotically almost surely invertible, assuming $\min(d,n-d)\ge C\log^2n$ for a sufficiently large constant $C>0$. The…

We present two characterizations of regular matroids among orientable matroids and use them to give a measure of "how far" an orientable matroid is from being regular.

Let ${\mathcal D}_{n,d}$ be the set of all $d$-regular directed graphs on $n$ vertices. Let $G$ be a graph chosen uniformly at random from ${\mathcal D}_{n,d}$ and $M$ be its adjacency matrix. We show that $M$ is invertible with probability…

In this paper we show that certain almost distance-regular graphs, the so-called $h$-punctually walk-regular graphs, can be characterized through the cospectrality of their perturbed graphs. A graph $G$ with diameter $D$ is called…

A real symmetric matrix $A$ is said to be completely positive if it can be written as $BB^t$ for some (not necessarily square) nonnegative matrix $B$. A simple graph $G$ is called a completely positive graph if every doubly nonnegative…

Distance-regular graphs are a key concept in Algebraic Combinatorics and have given rise to several generalizations, such as association schemes. Motivated by spectral and other algebraic characterizations of distance-regular graphs, we…

Let $G$ denote a finite abelian group with identity 1 and let $S$ denote an inverse-closed subset of $G \setminus {1}$, which generates $G$ and for which there exists $s \in S$, such that $\la S \setminus \{s,s^{-1}\} \ra \ne G$. In this…

A weakly distance-regular digraph is thick if its attached scheme is regular. In this paper, we show that each commutative thick weakly distance-regular digraph has a thick weakly distance-regular subdigraph such that the corresponding…

Let $G$ be a connected graph on $n$ vertices and $d_{ij}$ be the length of the shortest path between vertices $i$ and $j$ in $G$. We set $d_{ii}=0$ for every vertex $i$ in $G$. The squared distance matrix $\Delta(G)$ of $G$ is the $n\times…

Generally speaking, `almost distance-regular' graphs share some, but not necessarily all, of the regularity properties that characterize distance-regular graphs. In this paper we propose two new dual concepts of almost distance-regularity,…

The vertex-edge incidence matrix of a (connected) unicyclic graph G is a square matrix which is invertible if and only if the cycle of G is an odd cycle. A combinatorial formula of the inverse of the incidence matrix of an odd unicyclic…

The degree matrix of a graph is the diagonal matrix with diagonal entries equal to the degrees of the vertices of $X$. If $X_1$ and $X_2$ are graphs with respective adjacency matrices $A_1$ and $A_2$ and degree matrices $D_1$ and $D_2$, we…

Let $n \geq 4$ be an even integer and $W_n$ be the wheel graph with $n$ vertices. The distance $d_{ij}$ between any two distinct vertices $i$ and $j$ of $W_n$ is the length of the shortest path connecting $i$ and $j$. Let $D$ be the $n…

Steinerberger proposed a notion of curvature on graphs involving the graph distance matrix (J. Graph Theory, 2023). We show that nonnegative curvature is almost preserved under three graph operations. We characterize the distance matrix and…
