A total weighting of a graph $G$ is a mapping $\phi$ that assigns a weight to each vertex and each edge of $G$. The vertex-sum of $v \in V(G)$ with respect to $\phi$ is $S_{\phi}(v)=\sum_{e\in E(v)}\phi(e)+\phi(v)$. A total weighting is…
For a graph $G = (V, E)$, the $\gamma$-graph of $G$, denoted $G(\gamma) = (V(\gamma), E(\gamma))$, is the graph whose vertex set is the collection of minimum dominating sets, or $\gamma$-sets of $G$, and two $\gamma$-sets are adjacent in…
An $r$-graph $G$ is a pair $(V,E)$ such that $V$ is a set and $E$ is a family of $r$-element subsets of $V$. The \emph{independence number} $\alpha(G)$ of $G$ is the size of a largest subset $I$ of $V$ such that no member of $E$ is a subset…
We look at the average sum of the Euler's phi function $\phi{(n)}$ and it's relation with the visibility of a point from the origin.We show that $\forall{\hspace{0.05in}{k} \ge{1}},k\in\mathbb{N},\exists$ a $k$$\times$$k$ grid in the 2D…
For a simple graph $G$, the energy $\mathcal{E}(G)$ is defined as the sum of the absolute values of all the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix $A(G)$. Let $n, m$, respectively, be the number of vertices and edges of $G$. One well-known…
Assume that $G$ is a finite group. For every $a, b \in\mathbb N,$ we define a graph $\Gamma_{a,b}(G)$ whose vertices correspond to the elements of $G^a\cup G^b$ and in which two tuples $(x_1,\dots,x_a)$ and $(y_1,\dots,y_b)$ are adjacent if…
A graph $G$ is a $k$-prime product distance graph if its vertices can be labeled with distinct integers such that for any two adjacent vertices, the difference of their labels is the product of at most $k$ primes. A graph has prime product…
The independent domination number $i(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a maximal independent set of $G$, also called an $i(G)$-set. The $i$-graph of $G$, denoted $\mathcal{I}(G)$, is the graph whose vertices correspond to the…
Euler graphs are characterized by the simple criterion that degree of each node is even. By restricting on the cycle types yet additional intrinsic properties of Euler graphs are unveiled. For example, regularity higher than degree two is…
Given a set $\mathcal{F}$ of graphs, we call a copy of a graph in $\mathcal{F}$ an $\mathcal{F}$-graph. The $\mathcal{F}$-isolation number of a graph $G$, denoted by $\iota(G,\mathcal{F})$, is the size of a smallest set $D$ of vertices of…
Given two graphs $G$ and $H$, the Ramsey number $R(G,H)$ is the minimum integer $N$ such that any coloring of the edges of $K_N$ in red or blue yields a red $G$ or a blue $H$. Let $v(G)$ be the number of vertices of $G$ and $\chi(G)$ be the…
Let $G$ be the circulant graph $C_n(S)$ with $S\subseteq\{ 1,\ldots,\left \lfloor\frac{n}{2}\right \rfloor\}$. We study the reduced Euler characteristic $\tilde{\chi}$ of the independence complex $\Delta (G)$ for $n=p^k$ with $p$ prime and…
This paper provides a bridge between two active areas of research, the spectrum (set of element orders) and the power graph of a finite group. The order sequence of a finite group $G$ is the list of orders of elements of the group, arranged…
A graph of order $n$ is said to be $k$-\emph{factor-critical} $(0\le k<n)$ if the removal of any $k$ vertices results in a graph with a perfect matching. A $k$-factor-critical graph $G$ is \emph{minimal} if $G-e$ is not $k$-factor-critical…
For a positive integer \( k \), let \( [k] = \{1, 2, \ldots, k\} \). Let \( h \) be a non-negative integer, and let \( n \) be a multiple of \( h + 1 \). Define \( H \) as the disjoint union of \( n/(h+1) \) cliques (each of size \( h + 1…
