We generalize the tree-confluent graphs to a broader class of graphs called Delta-confluent graphs. This class of graphs and distance-hereditary graphs, a well-known class of graphs, coincide. Some results about the visualization of…

The $2$-layer drawing model is a well-established paradigm to visualize bipartite graphs. Several beyond-planar graph classes have been studied under this model. Surprisingly, however, the fundamental class of $k$-planar graphs has been…

We study the graphs formed from instances of the stable matching problem by connecting pairs of elements with an edge when there exists a stable matching in which they are matched. Our results include the NP-completeness of recognizing…

In this paper, we study graph-theoretic analogies of the Mertens' theorems by using basic properties of the Ihara zeta-function. One of our results is a refinement of a special case of the dynamical system Mertens' second theorem due to…

Let $G$ be the circulant graph $C_n(S)$ with $S \subseteq \{1, 2, \dots, \lfloor \frac{n}{2} \rfloor\}$, and let $I(G)$ denote the edge ideal in the polynomial ring $R=\mathbb{K}[x_0, x_1, \dots, x_{n-1}]$ over a field $\mathbb{K}$. In this…

In this paper we develop three characterizations for isomorphism of graphs. The first characterization is obtained by associating certain bitableaux with the graphs. We order these bitableaux by suitably defined lexicographic order and…

To each graph on $n$ vertices there is an associated subspace of the $n \times n$ matrices called the operator system of the graph. We prove that two graphs are isomorphic if and only if their corresponding operator systems are unitally…

We extend the clique-coclique inequality, previously known to hold for graphs in association schemes and vertex-transitive graphs, to graphs in homogeneous coherent configurations and 1-walk regular graphs. We further generalize it to a…

A nontrivial connected graph is matching covered if each edge belongs to some perfect matching. For most problems pertaining to perfect matchings, one may restrict attention to matching covered graphs; thus, there is extensive literature on…

To a finite, connected, unoriented graph of Betti-number g>=2 and valencies >=3 we associate a finitely summable, commutative spectral triple (in the sense of Connes), whose induced zeta functions encode the graph. This gives another…

Distance-regular graphs are a class of regualr graphs with pretty combinatorial symmetry. In 2007, Miklavi\v{c} and Poto\v{c}nik proposed the problem of charaterizing distance-regular Cayley graphs, which can be viewed as a natural…

A graph $\G$ is {\em symmetric} or {\em arc-transitive} if its automorphism group $\Aut(\G)$ is transitive on the arc set of the graph, and $\G$ is {\em basic} if $\Aut(\G)$ has no non-trivial normal subgroup $N$ such that the quotient…

Let $q$ be a prime power such that $q\equiv 1\pmod{4}$. The Paley graph of order $q$ is the graph with vertex set as the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and edges defined as, $ab$ is an edge if and only if $a-b$ is a non-zero square in…

A graph $\Gamma$ is basic if Aut$\Gamma$ has no normal subgroup $N\ne1$ such that $\Gamma$ is a normal cover of the normal quotient graph $\Gamma_N$. In this paper, we completely determine the basic normal quotient graphs of all connected…

For a group $G$, we define a graph $\Delta(G)$ by letting $G^{\#} = G \setminus \{ 1 \}$ be the set of vertices and by drawing an edge between distinct elements $x,y\in G^{\#}$ if and only if the subgroup $\langle x,y\rangle$ is cyclic.…

To any Feynman graph (with 2n edges) we can associate a hypersurface X\subset\PP^{2n-1}. We study the middle cohomology H^{2n-2}(X) of such hypersurfaces. S. Bloch, H. Esnault, and D. Kreimer (Commun. Math. Phys. 267, 2006) have computed…

In this paper, we introduce a variation of the well-studied Yao graphs. Given a set of points $S\subset \mathbb{R}^2$ and an angle $0 < \theta \leq 2\pi$, we define the continuous Yao graph $cY(\theta)$ with vertex set $S$ and angle…

Oriented line graph, introduced by Kotani and Sunada (2000), is closely related to Hashimato's non-backtracking matrix (1989). It is known that for regular graphs $G$, the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of the oriented line graph…

The cyclic and dihedral groups can be made to act on the set Acyc(Y) of acyclic orientations of an undirected graph Y, and this gives rise to the equivalence relations ~kappa and ~delta, respectively. These two actions and their…

In [19] it was explained how one can naturally associate a Deitmar scheme (which is a scheme defined over the field with one element, $\mathbb{F}_1$) to a so-called "loose graph" (which is a generalization of a graph). Several properties of…
