Over recent years there has been much interest in both Tur\'an and Ramsey properties of vertex ordered graphs. In this paper we initiate the study of embedding spanning structures into vertex ordered graphs. In particular, we introduce a…
The symmetries of a finite graph are described by its automorphism group; in the setting of Woronowicz's quantum groups, a notion of a quantum automorphism group has been defined by Banica capturing the quantum symmetries of the graph. In…
Our goal in this paper is to propose a \textit{combinatorial algorithm} that beats the only such algorithm known previously, the greedy one. We study the polynomial approximation of the Maximum Vertex Cover Problem in bipartite graphs by a…
We characterize the bipartite graphs that minimize the (first-degree based) entropy, among all bipartite graphs of given size, or given size and (upper bound on the) order. The extremal graphs turn out to be complete bipartite graphs, or…
In this paper we introduce and study the strip planarity testing problem, which takes as an input a planar graph $G(V,E)$ and a function $\gamma:V \rightarrow \{1,2,\dots,k\}$ and asks whether a planar drawing of $G$ exists such that each…
Two kinds of approximation algorithms exist for the k-BALANCED PARTITIONING problem: those that are fast but compute unsatisfying approximation ratios, and those that guarantee high quality ratios but are slow. In this paper we prove that…
In this paper we consider spectral extremal problems for hypergraphs. We give two general criteria under which such results may be deduced from `strong stability' forms of the corresponding (pure) extremal results. These results hold for…
Given a graph $G$, the maximal induced subgraphs problem asks to enumerate all maximal induced subgraphs of $G$ that belong to a certain hereditary graph class. While its optimization version, known as the minimum vertex deletion problem in…
Given an underlying undirected simple graph, we consider the set of all acyclic orientations of its edges. Each of these orientations induces a partial order on the vertices of our graph and, therefore, we can count the number of linear…
We study the behaviour of $K_{r+1}$-free graphs $G$ of almost extremal size, that is, typically, $e(G)=ex(n,K_{r+1})-O(n)$. We show that such graphs must have a large amount of 'symmetry', in particular that all but very few vertices of $G$…
Over all graphs (or unicyclic graphs) of a given order, we characterise those graphs that minimise or maximise the number of connected induced subgraphs. For each of these classes, we find that the graphs that minimise the number of…
An equitable partition of a graph $\Ga$ is a partition $\{V_1, \ldots, V_m\}$ of its vertex set such that for each pair $i, j$ all vertices in $V_i$ have the same number of neighbours in $V_j$. When $m=2$, $V_1$ is called an $(a,…
A matching $M$ in a graph $G$ is connected if all the edges of $M$ are in the same component of $G$. Following \L uczak,there have been many results using the existence of large connected matchings in cluster graphs with respect to regular…
We characterize hyperfinite bipartite graphings that admit measurable perfect matchings. In particular, we prove that every regular hyperfinite bipartite graphing admits a measurable perfect matching if it is one-ended or the degree is odd.…
This paper formulates a necessary and sufficient condition for a generic graph matching problem to be equivalent to the maximum vertex and edge weight clique problem in a derived association graph. The consequences of this results are…
Zykov's theorem shows that $r$-partite Tur\'{a}n graph uniquely has the maximum number of $K_t$ among all $n$-vertex $K_{r+1}$-free graphs for $2\le t\le r$. The clique tensor is a high-order extension of the adjacency matrix of a graph. Yu…
Computer or communication networks are so designed that they do not easily get disrupted under external attack and, moreover, these are easily reconstructible if they do get disrupted. These desirable properties of networks can be measured…
We study the Seifert surfaces of a link by relating the embeddings of graphs by using induced graphs. As applications, we prove that every link $L$ is the boundary of an oriented surface which is obtained from a graph embedding of a…
We consider the problem of finding all allowed edges in a bipartite graph $G=(V,E)$, i.e., all edges that are included in some maximum matching. We show that given any maximum matching in the graph, it is possible to perform this…
We study the problem of determining whether a given graph~$G=(V,E)$ admits a matching~$M$ whose removal destroys all odd cycles of~$G$ (or equivalently whether~$G-M$ is bipartite). This problem is equivalent to determine whether~$G$ admits…
