We study the regularity of binomial edge ideals. For a closed graph $G$ we show that the regularity of the binomial edge ideal $J_G$ coincides with the regularity of $\ini_{\lex}(J_G)$ and can be expressed in terms of the combinatorial data…

In this paper we prove the existence of a special order on the set of minimal monomial generators of powers of edge ideals of arbitrary graphs. Using this order we find new upper bounds on the regularity of powers of edge ideals of graphs…

A proper total colouring of a graph $G$ is called harmonious if it has the further property that when replacing each unordered pair of incident vertices and edges with their colours, then no pair of colours appears twice. The smallest…

For an edge-ordered graph $G$, we say that an $n$-vertex edge-ordered graph $H$ is $G$-saturated if it is $G$-free and adding any new edge with any new label to $H$ introduces a copy of $G$. The saturation function describes the minimum…

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…

Let C be a clutter and let I(C) be its edge ideal. This is a survey paper on the algebraic and combinatorial properties of R/I(C) and C, respectively. We give a criterion to estimate the regularity of R/I(C) and apply this criterion to give…

Given a graph $G$, the strong clique number of $G$, denoted $\omega_S(G)$, is the maximum size of a set $S$ of edges such that every pair of edges in $S$ has distance at most $2$ in the line graph of $G$. As a relaxation of the renowned…

For a family $\mathcal{F}$ of graphs, let $ex(n,\mathcal{F})$ denote the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph which contains none of the members of $\mathcal{F}$ as a subgraph. A longstanding problem in extremal graph theory asks…

We prove a tight upper bound on the independence polynomial (and total number of independent sets) of cubic graphs of girth at least 5. The bound is achieved by unions of the Heawood graph, the point/line incidence graph of the Fano plane.…

The crossing number of a graph G is the minimum number of pairwise intersections of edges in a drawing of G. Motivated by the recent work [Faria, L., Figueiredo, C.M.H. de, Sykora, O., Vrt'o, I.: An improved upper bound on the crossing…

Erd\H{o}s conjectured that every $n$-vertex triangle-free graph contains a subset of $\lfloor n/2\rfloor$ vertices that spans at most $n^2/50$ edges. Extending a recent result of Norin and Yepremyan, we confirm this conjecture for graphs…

Graph $G$ is $F$-saturated if $G$ contains no copy of graph $F$ but any edge added to $G$ produces at least one copy of $F$. One common variant of saturation is to remove the former restriction: $G$ is $F$-semi-saturated if any edge added…

A bar-joint framework $(G,p)$ in Euclidean $d$-space is rigid if the only edge-length-preserving continuous motions arise from isometries of $\mathbb{R}^d$. In the generic case, rigidity is determined by the generic $d$-dimensional rigidity…

One way to define the Matching Cut problem is: Given a graph $G$, is there an edge-cut $M$ of $G$ such that $M$ is an independent set in the line graph of $G$? We propose the more general Conflict-Free Cut problem: Together with the graph…

Erd\H{o}s asked whether for any $n$-vertex graph $G$, the parameter $p^*(G)=\min \sum_{i\ge 1} (|V(G_i)|-1)$ is at most $\lfloor n^2/4\rfloor$, where the minimum is taken over all edge decompositions of $G$ into edge-disjoint cliques $G_i$.…

We study the parabolic free boundary problem of obstacle type $$ \lap u-\frac{\partial u}{\partial t}= f\chi_{{u\ne 0}}. $$ Under the condition that $f=Hv$ for some function $v$ with bounded second order spatial derivatives and bounded…

Let $r\geq 3$ be an integer and $G$ be a graph. Let $\delta(G), \Delta(G)$, $\alpha(G)$ and $\mu(G)$ denotes minimum degree, maximum degree, independence number and matching number of $G$, respectively. Recently, Caro, Davila and Pepper…

Consider the following stochastic graph process. We begin with the empty graph on n vertices and add edges one at a time, where each edge is chosen uniformly at random from the collection of potential edges that do not form triangles when…

The distance of a graph from being triangle-free is a fundamental graph parameter, counting the number of edges that need to be removed from a graph in order for it to become triangle-free. Its corresponding computational problem is the…

We bound the number of minimal hypergraph transversals that arise in tri-partite 3-uniform hypergraphs, a class commonly found in applications dealing with data. Let H be such a hypergraph on a set of vertices V. We give a lower bound of…
