In this paper, we study distance-regular graphs $\Gamma$ that have a pair of distinct vertices, say x and y, such that the number of common neighbors of x and y is about half the valency of $\Gamma$. We show that if the diameter is at least…

Mixed graphs have both directed and undirected edges. A mixed cage is a regular mixed graph of given girth with minimum possible order. In this paper we construct a mixed cage of order 30 that achieves the mixed graph analogue of the Moore…

For positive integers $s,t,u,v$, we define a bipartite graph $\Gamma_{\mathbb{R}}(X^s Y^t,X^u Y^v)$ where each partite set is a copy of $\mathbb{R}^3$, and a vertex $(a_1,a_2,a_3)$ in the first partite set is adjacent to a vertex…

In 2009, Kong, Wang, and Lee began work on the problem of finding the edge-balanced index sets of complete bipartite graphs $K_{m,n}$ by solving the cases where $n=1$, $2$, $3$, $4$, and $5$, and also the case where $m=n$. In an article…

An edge $e$ of a matching covered graph $G$ is removable if $G-e$ is also matching covered. The notion of removable edge arises in connection with ear decompositions of matching covered graphs introduced by Lov\'asz and Plummer. A…

Let $2 \le r < m$ and $g$ be positive integers. An $({r,m};g)$--graph} (or biregular graph) is a graph with degree set ${r,m}$ and girth $g$, and an $({r,m};g)$-cage (or biregular cage) is an $({r,m};g)$-graph of minimum order $n({r,m};g)$.…

It is well known that a graph is bipartite if and only if the spectrum of its adjacency matrix is symmetric. In the present paper, this assertion is dissected into three separate matrix results of wider scope, which are extended also to…

In this note, we introduce a family of bipartite graphs called path restricted ordered bipartite graphs and present it as an abstract generalization of some well known geometric graphs like unit distance graphs on convex point sets. In the…

We study bipartite distance-regular Cayley graphs with diameter three or four. We give sufficient conditions under which a bipartite Cayley graph can be constructed on the semidirect product of a group -- the part of this bipartite Cayley…

In 2003, Fischermann et al. considered the maximum size of \textit{uniquely-dominatable} graphs, graphs whose dominating number is realized only by a unique dominating set. They conjectured a size bound and provide a general graph…

In this paper, we establish a couple of results on extremal problems in bipartite graphs. Firstly, we show that every sufficiently large bipartite graph with average degree $D$ and with $n$ vertices on each side has a balanced independent…

The boxicity of a graph G is defined as the minimum integer k such that G is an intersection graph of axis-parallel k-dimensional boxes. Chordal bipartite graphs are bipartite graphs that do not contain an induced cycle of length greater…

We consider the problem of finding all allowed edges in a bipartite graph $G=(V,E)$, i.e., all edges that are included in some maximum matching. We show that given any maximum matching in the graph, it is possible to perform this…

Let $G$ denote a $Q$-polynomial distance-regular graph with diameter $D$ at least 4. Assume that the intersection numbers of $G$ satisfy $a_i=0$ for $0 \leq i \leq D-1$ and $a_D\neq 0$. We show that $G$ is a polygon, a folded cube, or an…

Erd\H{o}s and Simonovits asked the following question: For an integer $r\geq 2$ and a family of non-bipartite graphs $\mathcal{H}$, determine the infimum of $\alpha$ such that any $\mathcal{H}$-free $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at…

In a recent work on the bipartite Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi graph, Do et al. (2023) established upper bounds on the number of connected labeled bipartite graphs with a fixed surplus. We use some recent encodings of bipartite random graphs in…

We start a systematic investigation concerning bipartite Tur\'an number for trees. For a graph $F$ and integers $1 \leq a \leq b$ we define: $(i)$\quad $ex_b(a, b, F)$ is the largest number of edges that an $F$-free bipartite graph can have…

We show that if the two parts of a finite bipartite graph have the same degree sequence, then there is a bipartite graph, with the same degree sequences, which is symmetric, in that it has an involutive graph automorphism that interchanges…

The binding number $b(G)$ of a graph, introduced by Woodall [J. Combin. Theory, Ser. B, 1973], is a central topic of both structural and extremal graph theory. It is closely related to fundamental combinatorial and structural properties of…

For a finite group $G$, let $\Delta(G)$ denote the character graph built on the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of $G$. In this paper, we show that if the diameter of $\Delta(G)$ is equal to three, then the complement…
