Let $G$ be a finite group. For each $m>1$ we define the symmetric canonical subset $S=S(m)$ of the Cartesian power $G^m$ and we consider the family of Cayley graphs $\mathscr{G}_m(G)=Cay(G^m,S)$. We describe properties of these graphs and…
Graph connectivity serves as a fundamental metric for evaluating the reliability and fault tolerance of interconnection networks. To more precisely characterize network robustness, the concept of cyclic connectivity has been introduced,…
Ozkan et al. conjectured that any packing of $n$ spheres with generic radii will be stress-free, and hence will have at most $3n-6$ contacts. In this paper we prove that this conjecture is true for any sphere packing with contact graph of…
Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph with $n\ge 3$. A classic result of Dirac from 1952 asserts that $G$ is hamiltonian if $\delta(G)\ge n/2$. Dirac's theorem is one of the most influential results in the study of hamiltonicity and by now there…
In the present paper, we investigate the complexity of infinite family of graphs $H_n=H_n(G_1,\,G_2,\ldots,G_m)$ obtained as a circulant foliation over a graph $H$ on $m$ vertices with fibers $G_{1},\,G_{2},\ldots,G_{m}.$ Each fiber…
An abstract $n$-polytope $\mathcal{P}$ is a partially-ordered set which captures important properties of a geometric polytope, for any dimension $n$. For even $n \ge 2$, the incidences between elements in the middle two layers of the Hasse…
Assume G is a finite abstract simplicial complex with f-vector (v0,v1, ...), and generating function f(x) = sum(k=1 v(k-1) x^k = v0 x + v1 x^2+ v2 x^3 + ..., the Euler characteristic of G can be written as chi(G)=f(0)-f(-1). We study here…
The girth of a finitely generated group G is the supremum of the girth of Cayley graphs for G over all finite generating sets. Let G be a finitely generated subgroup of the mapping class group Mod(S), where S is a compact orientable…
A graph $G$ is uniquely $H$-saturated if it contains no copy of a graph $H$ as a subgraph, but adding any new edge into $G$ creates exactly one copy of $H$. Let $C_{4}^{+}$ be the diamond graph consisting of a $4$-cycle $C_{4}$ with one…
A graph $G$ is $1$-extendible if every edge belongs to at least one $1$-factor of $G$. Let $G$ be a graph with a $1$-factor $F$. Then an even $F$-orientation of $G$ is an orientation in which each $F$-alternating cycle has exactly an even…
We consider two types of joins of graphs $G_{1}$ and $G_{2}$, $G_{1}\veebar G_{2}$ - the Neighbors Splitting Join and $G_{1}\underset{=}{\lor}G_{2}$ - the Non Neighbors Splitting Join, and compute the adjacency characteristic polynomial,…
A graph is said to be uniquely hamiltonian if it has a unique hamiltonian cycle. For a natural extension of this concept to infinite graphs, we find all uniquely hamiltonian vertex-transitive graphs with finitely many ends, and also discuss…
Median graphs are connected graphs in which for all three vertices there is a unique vertex that belongs to shortest paths between each pair of these three vertices. To be more formal, a graph $G$ is a median graph if, for all $\mu, u,v\in…
Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and edge set $E(G)$. For $\alpha\in[0,1)$, we use $A_{\alpha}(G)$ and $\rho_{\alpha}(G)$ to denote the $A_{\alpha}$-matrix and the $A_{\alpha}$-spectral radius of $G$, respectively. The binding…
For a simple graph $G$, the generalized adjacency matrix $A_{\alpha}(G)$ is defined as $A_{\alpha}(G)=\alpha D(G)+(1-\alpha)A(G), \alpha\in [0,1]$, where $A(G)$ is the adjacency matrix and $D(G)$ is the diagonal matrix of vertex degrees of…
Given a collection of graphs $\mathbf{G}=(G_1, \ldots, G_m)$ with the same vertex set, an $m$-edge graph $H\subset \cup_{i\in [m]}G_i$ is a transversal if there is a bijection $\phi:E(H)\to [m]$ such that $e\in E(G_{\phi(e)})$ for each…
Many combinatorial and other number triangles are solutions of recurrences of the Graham-Knuth-Patashnik (GKP) type. Such triangles and their defining recurrences are investigated analytically. They are acted on by a transformation group…
We observe two kinds of fractal approximating graphs, the background structures of the generalized Sierpinski Arrowhead Curve independently of the recursive curves. Both graphs related to the generalized Sierpinski Gasket and based on a…
A graph $G$ is said to be chordal if it has no induced cycles of length four or more. In a recent preprint Culbertson, Guralnik, and Stiller give a new characterization of chordal graphs in terms of sequences of what they call…
Conduction graphs are defined here in order to elucidate at a glance the often complicated conduction behaviour of molecular graphs as ballistic molecular conductors. The graph $G^{\mathrm C}$ describes all possible conducting devices…
