A graph is said to be a Konig graph if the size of its maximum matching is equal to the size of its minimum vertex cover. The Konig Edge Deletion problem asks if in a given graph there exists a set of at most k edges whose deletion results…

We show that planar embeddable 3-connected CAD graphs are generically non-soluble. A CAD graph represents a configuration of points on the Euclidean plane with just enough distance dimensions between them to ensure rigidity. Formally, a CAD…

We show that if $G$ is a simple triangle-free graph with $n\geq 3$ vertices, without a perfect matching, and having a minimum degree at least $\frac{n-1}{2}$, then $G$ is isomorphic either to $C_5$ or to $K_{\frac{n-1}{2},\frac{n+1}{2}}$.

A {\em fork} is a graph obtained from $K_{1,3}$ (usually called {\em claw}) by subdividing an edge once, an {\em antifork} is the complement graph of a fork, and a {\em co-cricket} is a union of $K_1$ and $K_4-e$. A graph is perfectly…

Given a graph $G$ and a natural number $k$, the $k$-recolouring graph $\mathcal{C}_k(G)$ is the graph whose vertices are the $k$-colourings of $G$ and whose edges link pairs of colourings which differ at exactly one vertex of $G$. Recently,…

A complete graph is the graph in which every two vertices are adjacent. For a graph $G=(V,E)$, the complete width of $G$ is the minimum $k$ such that there exist $k$ independent sets $\mathtt{N}_i\subseteq V$, $1\le i\le k$, such that the…

Given a multigraph $G$, the all-terminal reliability $R(G,p)$ is the probability that $G$ remains connected under percolation with parameter $p$. Fixing the number of vertices $n$ and edges $m$, we investigate which graphs maximize $R(G,p)$…

A graph is $(c_1, c_2, ..., c_k)$-colorable if the vertex set can be partitioned into $k$ sets $V_1,V_2, ..., V_k$, such that for every $i: 1\leq i\leq k$ the subgraph $G[V_i]$ has maximum degree at most $c_i$. We show that every planar…

Let $G$ be a contraction critically quasi $5$-connected graph on at least $14$ vertices. If there is a vertex $x\in V_{4}(G)$ such that $G[N_{G}(x)]\cong K_{1,3}$ or $G[N_{G}(x)]\cong C_{4}$, then $G$ has a quasi $5$-contractible subgraph…

Let $G$ be a graph without 4-cycles and 5-cycles. We show that the problem to determine whether $G$ is $(0,k)$-colorable is NP-complete for each positive integer $k.$ Moreover, we construct non-$(1,k)$-colorable planar graphs without…

A (possibly denerate) drawing of a graph $G$ in the plane is approximable by an embedding if it can be turned into an embedding by an arbitrarily small perturbation. We show that testing, whether a straight-line drawing of a planar graph…

A graph $G$ is said to be $2$-divisible if for all (nonempty) induced subgraphs $H$ of $G$, $V(H)$ can be partitioned into two sets $A,B$ such that $\omega(A) < \omega(H)$ and $\omega(B) < \omega(H)$. A graph $G$ is said to be perfectly…
