Ramsey proved that for every positive integer $n$, every sufficiently large graph contains an induced $K_n$ or $\overline{K}_n$. Among the many extensions of Ramsey's Theorem there is an analogue for connected graphs: for every positive…
Hypergraphs, as a generalization of simplicial complexes, have long been a subject of interest in their geometric interpretation. The subdivision of simplicial complexes can, to some extent, provide insights into the geometry of simplicial…
In this survey, we explore recent literature on finding the cores of higher graphs using geometric and topological means. We study graphs, hypergraphs, and simplicial complexes, all of which are models of higher graphs. We study the notion…
We consider the problem of covering a graph with a given number of induced subgraphs so that the maximum number of vertices in each subgraph is minimized. We prove NP-completeness of the problem, prove lower bounds, and give approximation…
Keys for graphs uses the topology and value constraints needed to uniquely identify entities in a graph database. They have been studied to support object identification, knowledge fusion, data deduplication, and social network…
One of the major results of [N. Robertson and P. D. Seymour. Graph minors. XIII. The disjoint paths problem. J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 63(1):65--110, 1995], also known as the weak structure theorem, revealed the local structure of graphs…
For random graphs, the containment problem considers the probability that a binomial random graph $G(n,p)$ contains a given graph as a substructure. When asking for the graph as a topological minor, i.e., for a copy of a subdivision of the…
Expander decompositions of graphs have significantly advanced the understanding of many classical graph problems and led to numerous fundamental theoretical results. However, their adoption in practice has been hindered due to their…
In the course of proving the strong perfect graph theorem, Chudnovsky, Robertson, Seymour, and Thomas showed that every perfect graph either belongs to one of five basic classes or admits one of several decompositions. Four of the basic…
Grohe and Marx proved that if G does not contain H as a topological minor, then there exist constants g=O(|V(H)|^4), D and t depending only on H such that G is a clique sum of graphs that either contain at most t vertices of degree greater…
This work studies certain aspects of graphs embedded on surfaces. Initially, a colored graph model for a map of a graph on a surface is developed. Then, a concept analogous to (and extending) planar graph is introduced in the same spirit as…
It is well known that every sufficiently large connected graph has, as an induced subgraph, $K_n$, $K_{1,n}$, or an $n$-vertex path. A 2023 paper of Allred, Ding, and Oporowski identified a set of unavoidable induced subgraphs of…
Modern methods of graph theory describe a graph up to isomorphism, which makes it difficult to create mathematical models for visualizing graph drawings on a plane. The topological drawing of the planar part of a graph allows representing…
Schreier graphs, which possess both a graph structure and a Schreier structure (an edge-labeling by the generators of a group), are objects of fundamental importance in group theory and geometry. We study the Schreier structures with which…
We introduce a method to embed edge-colored graphs into families of expander graphs, which generalizes a framework developed by Dragani\'c, Krivelevich, and Nenadov (2022). As an application, we show that each family of sufficiently…
We present a dynamic data structure representing a graph G, which allows addition and removal of edges from G and can determine the number of appearances of a graph of a bounded size as an induced subgraph of G. The queries are answered in…
We study the appearance of the giant component in random subgraphs of a given large finite graph G=(V,E) in which each edge is present independently with probability p. We show that if G is an expander with vertices of bounded degree, then…
In this paper we analyze a variant of the pursuit-evasion game on a graph $G$ where the intruder occupies a vertex, is allowed to move to adjacent vertices or remain in place, and is 'invisible' to the searcher, meaning that the searcher…
Graphs are a basic tool for the representation of modern data. The richness of the topological information contained in a graph goes far beyond its mere interpretation as a one-dimensional simplicial complex. We show how topological…
In this paper we investigate phenomena of spontaneous emergence or purposeful formation of highly organized structures in networks of related agents. We show that the formation of large organized structures requires exponentially large, in…
