A graph is said to be distance-hereditary if the distance function in every connected induced subgraph is the same as in the graph itself. We prove that the ordinary Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm correctly tests the isomorphism of any two…

Given a locally finite simple graph so that its degree is not bounded, every self-adjoint realization of the adjacency matrix is unbounded from above. In this note we give an optimal condition to ensure it is also unbounded from below. We…

The relative fixity of a digraph $\Gamma$ is defined as the ratio between the largest number of vertices fixed by a nontrivial automorphism of $\Gamma$ and the number of vertices of $\Gamma$. We characterize the vertex-primitive digraphs…

Let $\Gamma$ be a connected $G$-vertex-transitive graph, let $v$ be a vertex of $\Gamma$ and let $L=G_v^{\Gamma(v)}$ be the permutation group induced by the action of the vertex-stabiliser $G_v$ on the neighbourhood $\Gamma(v)$. Then…

We classify the finite connected-homogeneous digraphs, as well as the infinite such digraphs with precisely one end. This completes the classification of all the locally finite connected-homogeneous digraphs.

In this paper, we study the construction and transformation of two-dimensional persistent graphs. Persistence is a generalization to directed graphs of the undirected notion of rigidity. In the context of moving autonomous agent formations,…

Let us call a simple graph on $n\geq 2$ vertices a prime gap graph if its vertex degrees are $1$ and the first $n-1$ prime gaps. We show that such a graph exists for every large $n$, and in fact for every $n\geq 2$ if we assume the Riemann…

We characterize the fundamental group of a locally finite graph G with ends combinatorially, as a group of infinite words. Our characterization gives rise to a canonical embedding of this group in the inverse limit of the (free) fundamental…

We prove that for any weakly convergent sequence of finite graphs with bounded vertex degrees, there exists a topological limit graphing.

For families of 4-regular directed circulant graphs with $n$ vertices, we count the number of primitive periodic orbits of length up to at least $n$. The relevant counting techniques are then extended to count the number of primitive pseudo…

In the companion paper [Linear rank-width of distance-hereditary graphs I. A polynomial-time algorithm, Algorithmica 78(1):342--377, 2017], we presented a characterization of the linear rank-width of distance-hereditary graphs, from which…

We introduce a new class of countably infinite random geometric graphs, whose vertices are points in a metric space, and vertices are adjacent independently with probability p if the metric distance between the vertices is below a given…

Mapping class groups of locally finite graphs are the analogue of those of infinite-type surfaces, and serve as a "big" version of $\text{Out}(F_n)$. In this paper, we investigate which of these mapping class groups have a dense conjugacy…

A \emph{primitive hole} of a graph $G$ is a cycle of length 3 in $G$. The number of primitive holes in a given graph $G$ is called the primitive hole number of the graph $G$. The primitive degree of a vertex $v$ of a given graph $G$ is the…

Let $G$ be a graph with a vertex set $V$. The graph $G$ is path-proximinal if there are a semimetric $d \colon V \times V \to [0, \infty[$ and disjoint proximinal subsets of the semimetric space $(V, d)$ such that $V = A \cup B$, and…

A class of countable infinite graphs with unbounded vertex degree is considered. In these graphs, the vertices of large degree `repel' each other, which means that the path distance between two such vertices cannot be smaller than a certain…

We establish tight lower and upper bounds on the number of edges in traceable graphs in several classes of dense graphs. A graph is traceable if it has a Hamiltonian path. We show that the bound is: - quadratic for the class of graphs of…

Given a graph $G$, a subgraph $H$ is isometric if $d_H(u,v) = d_G(u,v)$ for every pair $u,v\in V(H)$, where $d$ is the distance function. A graph $G$ is distance preserving (dp) if it has an isometric subgraph of every possible order. A…

We consider vertex-primitive digraphs having two vertices with almost equal neighbourhoods (that is, the set of vertices that are neighbours of one but not the other is small). We prove a structural result about such digraphs and then apply…

We consider the problem of transforming a given graph $G_s$ into a desired graph $G_t$ by applying a minimum number primitives from a particular set of local graph transformation primitives. These primitives are local in the sense that each…
