Let $k\geq2$ be an integer. A $k$-tree is a tree with maximum degree at most $k$. In this paper, we give a closure result on spanning $k$-trees of graphs with given minimum degree. Let $\delta\geq1$ be an integer, and $G$ be a connected…

We prove that, if $m$ is sufficiently large, every graph on $m+1$ vertices that has a universal vertex and minimum degree at least $\lfloor \frac{2m}{3} \rfloor$ contains each tree $T$ with $m$ edges as a subgraph. Our result confirms, for…

It can be shown that each permutation group $G \sqsubseteq S_n$ can be embedded, in a well defined sense, in a connected graph with $O(n+|G|)$ vertices. Some groups, however, require much fewer vertices. For instance, $S_n$ itself can be…

A radio labeling of a graph $G$ is a mapping $f$ : $V(G) \rightarrow \{0, 1, 2,...\}$ such that $|f(u)-f(v)| \geq diam(G) + 1 - d(u,v)$ holds for every pair of vertices $u$ and $v$, where $diam(G)$ is the diameter of $G$ and $d(u,v)$ is the…

We investigate isometric embeddings of finite metric trees into $(\mathbb{R}^n,d_{1})$ and $( \mathbb{R}^n, d_{\infty})$. We prove that a finite metric tree can be isometrically embedded into $(\mathbb{R}^n,d_{1})$ if and only if the number…

Fix g>1. Every graph of large enough tree-width contains a g x g grid as a minor; but here we prove that every four-edge-connected graph of large enough tree-width contains a g x g grid as an immersion (and hence contains any fixed graph…

In 2012, Mader conjectured that for any tree $T$ of order $m$, every $k$-connected graph $G$ with minimum degree at least $\lfloor \frac{3k}{2}\rfloor+m-1$ contains a subtree $T'\cong T$ such that $G-V(T')$ remains $k$-connected. In 2022,…

We prove that if T is a tree on n vertices wih maximum degree D and the edge probability p(n) satisfies: np>c*max{D*logn,n^{\epsilon}} for some constant \epsilon>0, then with high probability the random graph G(n,p) contains a copy of T.…

A graph $G$ is embeddable in $\mathbb{R}^d$ if vertices of $G$ can be assigned with points of $\mathbb{R}^d$ in such a way that all pairs of adjacent vertices are at the distance 1. We show that verifying embeddability of a given graph in…

For a graph $G$, let $c_k(G)$ be the number of spanning trees of $G$ with maximum degree at most $k$. For $k \ge 3$, it is proved that every connected $n$-vertex $r$-regular graph $G$ with $r \ge \frac{n}{k+1}$ satisfies $$ c_k(G)^{1/n} \ge…
