For a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, we obtain some trace formulas for the Laplacian tensor of $H$, which imply that $\sum_{i=1}^nd_i^s$ ($s=1,\ldots,k$) is determined by the Laplacian spectrum of $H$, where $d_1,\ldots,d_n$ is the degree…

An edge-ordered graph is a graph with a total ordering of its edges. A path $P=v_1v_2\ldots v_k$ in an edge-ordered graph is called increasing if $(v_iv_{i+1}) > (v_{i+1}v_{i+2})$ for all $i = 1,\ldots,k-2$; it is called decreasing if…

An ordered graph $G_<$ is a graph with a total ordering $<$ on its vertex set. A monotone path of length $k$ is a sequence of vertices $v_1<v_2<\ldots<v_k$ such that $v_iv_{j}$ is an edge of $G_<$ if and only if $|j-i|=1$. A bi-clique of…

The graph isomorphism problem is a main problem which has numerous applications in different fields. Thus, finding an efficient and easy to implement method to discriminate non-isomorphic graphs is valuable. In this paper, a new method is…

Two graphs having the same spectrum are said to be cospectral. Two graphs such that the absolute values of their nonzero eigenvalues coincide are singularly cospectral graphs. Cospectrality implies singular cospectrality, but the converse…

A graph G is said to be orderenergetic, if its energy equal to its order and it is said to be hypoenergetic if its energy less than its order. Two non-isomorphic graphs of same order are said to be equienergetic if their energies are equal.…

The power graph $\mathcal{P}(G)$ is the simple undirected graph with group elements as a vertex set and two elements are adjacent if one of them is a power of the other. The order supergraph $\mathcal{S}(G)$ of the power graph…

We prove that for all $0\leq t\leq k$ and $d\geq 2k$, every graph $G$ with treewidth at most $k$ has a `large' induced subgraph $H$, where $H$ has treewidth at most $t$ and every vertex in $H$ has degree at most $d$ in $G$. The order of $H$…

Let $\Gamma=(V,E)$ be a graph. If all the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of the graph $\Gamma$ are integers, then we say that $\Gamma$ is an integral graph. A graph $\Gamma$ is determined by its spectrum if every graph cospectral to it…

In this paper we study a natural generalization of both {\sc $k$-Path} and {\sc $k$-Tree} problems, namely, the {\sc Subgraph Isomorphism} problem. In the {\sc Subgraph Isomorphism} problem we are given two graphs $F$ and $G$ on $k$ and $n$…

It is known that non-isomorphic strongly regular graphs with the same parameters must be cospectral (have the same eigenvalues). In this paper, we investigate whether the spectra of higher order Laplacians associated with these graphs can…

Given two graphs $H_1$ and $H_2$, a graph $G$ is $(H_1,H_2)$-free if it contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to $H_1$ or $H_2$. Let $P_t$ be the path on $t$ vertices. A graph $G$ is $k$-vertex-critical if $G$ has chromatic number $k$ but…

An $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$ consists of a set of vertices $V$ and a set of edges whose elements are $r$-subsets of $V$. We define a hypertree to be a connected hypergraph which contains no cycles. A hypertree spans a hypergraph $H$ if it…

For a positive integer k and a graph G, we consider proper vertex-colourings of G with k colours in which all k colours are actually used. We call such a colouring a strong k-colouring. The strong k-colour graph of G, S_k(G), is the graph…

We say that a first order formula $\Phi$ defines a graph $G$ if $\Phi$ is true on $G$ and false on every graph $G'$ non-isomorphic with $G$. Let $D(G)$ be the minimal quantifier rank of a such formula. We prove that, if $G$ is a tree of…
