We investigate the structure of connected graphs, not necessarily locally finite, with infinitely many ends. On the one hand we study end-transitive such graphs and on the other hand we study such graphs with the property that the…

We study classes of countable graphs where every member does not contain a given finite graph as an induced subgraph -- denoted by $\mathsf{Free}(\mathcal{G})$ for a given finite graph $\mathcal{G}$. Our main results establish a structural…

We generalize the class of split graphs to the directed case and show that these split digraphs can be identified from their degree sequences. The first degree sequence characterization is an extension of the concept of splittance to…

This paper studies infinite graphs produced from a natural unfolding operation applied to finite graphs. Graphs produced via such operations are of finite degree and automatic over the unary alphabet (that is, they can be described by…

We study the question of whether, for a given class of finite graphs, one can define, for each graph of the class, a linear ordering in monadic second-order logic, possibly with the help of monadic parameters. We consider two variants of…

Every countable graph can be built from finite graphs by a suitable infinite process, either adding new vertices randomly or imposing some rules on the new edges. On the other hand, a profinite topological graph is built as the inverse…

A self-contained graph is an infinite graph which is isomorphic to one of its proper induced subgraphs. In this paper, these graphs are studied by presenting some examples and defining some of their sub-structures such as removable…

Path graphs are intersection graphs of paths in a tree. We start from the characterization of path graphs by Monma and Wei [C.L.~Monma,~and~V.K.~Wei, Intersection Graphs of Paths in a Tree, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 41:2 (1986) 141--181]…

A classical enumerative result states that, given a graph $G$ and a vertex $u$, the number of connected subgraphs of $G$ is equal to the number of orientations of $G$ such that every vertex can reach $u$ by a directed path. We show that…

Planar locally finite graphs which are almost vertex transitive are discussed. If the graph is 3-connected and has at most one end then the group of automorphisms is a planar discontinuous group and its structure is well-known. A general…

We prove that the invariably generating graph of a finite group can have an arbitrarily large number of connected components with at least two vertices.

For a finite group $G$, we define the inclusion graph of subgroups of $G$, denoted by $\mathcal I(G)$, is a graph having all the proper subgroups of $G$ as its vertices and two distinct vertices $H$ and $K$ in $\mathcal I(G)$ are adjacent…

An infinite matroid is graphic if all of its finite minors are graphic and the intersection of any circuit with any cocircuit is finite. We show that a matroid is graphic if and only if it can be represented by a graph-like topological…

Let G be a simple finite graph such that each vertex has an integer value and different vertices have different values. Let S be a finite non-empty set of primes. We call G an S-graph if any two vertices are connected by an edge if and only…

An $r$-edge coloring of a graph or hypergraph $G=(V,E)$ is a map $c:E\to \{0, \dots, r-1\}$. Extending results of Rado and answering questions of Rado, Gy\'arf\'as and S\'ark\"ozy we prove that (1.) the vertex set of every $r$-edge colored…

A majority coloring of an undirected graph is a vertex coloring in which for each vertex there are at least as many bi-chromatic edges containing that vertex as monochromatic ones. It is known that for every countable graph a majority…
