We prove that sparse string graphs in a fixed surface have linear expansion. We extend this result to the more general setting of sparse region intersection graphs over any proper minor-closed class. The proofs are combinatorial and…

We prove that any class of graphs with linear neighborhood complexity has bounded improper odd chromatic number. As a result, if $\mathcal{G}$ is the class of all circle graphs, or if $\mathcal{G}$ is any class with bounded twin-width,…

Let P be a set of n points in general position in the plane. We study the chromatic number of the intersection graph of the open triangles determined by P. It is known that this chromatic number is at least n^3/27+O(n^2), and if P is in…

A b-coloring of the vertices of a graph is a proper coloring where each color class contains a vertex which is adjacent to each other color class. The b-chromatic number of $G$ is the maximum integer $b(G)$ for which $G$ has a b-coloring…

Answering a question of Kalai and Meshulam, we prove that graphs without induced cycles of length $3k$ have bounded chromatic number. This implies the very first case of a much broader question asserting that every graph with large…

We present an explicit family of hypergraphs with arbitrarily large uniformity and chromatic number that admit realizations in both geometric and number-theoretic settings. As an application, we give a new proof of a theorem of Chen, Pach,…

A strong edge-coloring of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a partition of its edge set $E$ into induced matchings. We study bipartite graphs with one part having maximum degree at most $3$ and the other part having maximum degree $\Delta$. We show that…

A graph is said to be a segment graph if its vertices can be mapped to line segments in the plane such that two vertices have an edge between them if and only if their corresponding line segments intersect. Kratochv\'{i}l and Kub\v{e}na…

We introduce a new class of intersection graphs, the edge intersection graphs of paths on a triangular grid, called EPGt graphs. We show similarities and differences from this new class to the well-known class of EPG graphs. A turn of a…

I answer an open question left by Gui-Song Li in "On self-intersections of immersed surfaces" (AMS Proceedings, Volume 126, 1998, pp.3721-3726.) The intersection graph $M(i)$ of a generic surface $i:F \to S^3$ is the set of values which are…

We classify modules and rings with some specific properties of their intersection graphs. In particular, we describe rings with infinite intersection graphs containing maximal left ideals of finite degree. This answers a question raised in…

The set of semialgebraic graphs having countable list-chromatic numbers is characterized. Some other related sets of graphs having countable list-chromatic numbers also are.

A good deal of research has been done and published on coloring of the vertices of graphs for several years while studying of the excellent work of those maestros, we get inspire to work on the vertex coloring of graphs in case of a…

Highly-regular graphs can be regarded as a combinatorial generalization of distance-regular graphs. From this standpoint, we study combinatorial aspects of highly-regular graphs. As a result, we give the following three main results in this…

In an earlier paper, the present authors (2013) introduced the altermatic number of graphs and used Tucker's Lemma, an equivalent combinatorial version of the Borsuk-Ulam Theorem, to show that the altermatic number is a lower bound for the…

We obtain a coarse relationship between geometric intersection numbers of curves and the sum of their subsurface projection distances with explicit quasi-constants. By using this relationship, we give applications in the studies of the…

The dichromatic and diachromatic numbers of a digraph are the minimum and maximum numbers of colors, respectively, in acyclic and complete colorings of the digraph. In this paper, we construct, for all $r \leq t$, non-symmetric digraphs…

We consider the graph class Grounded-L corresponding to graphs that admit an intersection representation by L-shaped curves, where additionally the topmost points of each curve are assumed to belong to a common horizontal line. We prove…

The intersection graph of a group $G$ is an undirected graph without loops and multiple edges defined as follows: the vertex set is the set of all proper non-trivial subgroups of $G$, and there is an edge between two distinct vertices $H$…

Here we prove that a graph without some three induced subgraphs has chromatic number at the most equal to its maximum clique size plus one. Further we show that the bounds are tight and give examples to show that each of the three forbidden…
