A graph is called 1-planar if it can be drawn on the plane so that each edge is crossed by at most one other edge. In this paper, we establish a local property of 1-planar graphs which describes the structure in the neighborhood of small…
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…
A \emph{$k$-radius sequence} for a graph $G$ is a sequence of vertices of $G$ (typically with repetitions) such that for every edge $uv$ of $G$ vertices $u$ and $v$ appear at least once within distance $k$ in the sequence. The length of a…
Hypergraphs are a generalization of graphs in which edges can connect any number of vertices. They allow the modeling of complex networks with higher-order interactions, and their spectral theory studies the qualitative properties that can…
This work introduces the concept of \emph{upper-critical graphs}, in a complementary way of the conventional (lower)critical graphs: an element $x$ of a graph $G$ is called \emph{critical} if $\chi(G-x)<\chi(G)$. It is said that $G$ is a…
A graph G = (V,E) is called fully regular if for every independent set $I\subset V$ , the number of vertices in $V\setminus$ I that are not connected to any element of I depends only on the size of I. A linear ordering of the vertices of G…
The vertex connectivity of a graph $G$ is the size of the smallest set of vertices $S$ such that $G \setminus S$ is disconnected. For the class of planar graphs, the problem of vertex connectivity is well-studied, both from structural and…
In a graph G, cardinality of the smallest ordered set of vertices that distinguishes every element of V (G) is the (vertex) metric dimension of G. Similarly, the cardinality of such a set is the edge metric dimension of G, if it…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a connected graph. The distance between two vertices $u,v\in V$, denoted by $d(u, v)$, is the length of a shortest $u-v$ path in $G$. The distance between a vertex $v\in V$ and a subset $P\subset V$ is defined as $min\{d(v,…
A complex unit gain graph ($ \mathbb{T} $-gain graph), $ \Phi=(G, \varphi) $ is a graph where the gain function $ \varphi $ assigns a unit complex number to each orientation of an edge of $ G $ and its inverse is assigned to the opposite…
Given a finite group $G$, denote by $\Gamma(G)$ the simple undirected graph whose vertices are the distinct sizes of noncentral conjugacy classes of $G$, and set two vertices of $\Gamma(G)$ to be adjacent if and only if they are not coprime…
The independent domination number $i(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a maximal independent set of $G$, also called an $i(G)$-set. The $i$-graph of $G$, denoted $\mathscr{I}(G)$, is the graph whose vertices correspond to the…
We introduce the class of interval $H$-graphs, which is the generalization of interval graphs, particularly interval bigraphs. For a fixed graph $H$ with vertices $a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k$, we say that an input graph $G$ with given partition…
We connect several notions relating the structural and dynamical properties of a graph. Among them are the topological entropy coming from the vertex shift, which is related to the spectral radius of the graph's adjacency matrix, the…
A graph $G$ is \emph{$(a,b)$-choosable} if given any list assignment $L$ with $|L(v)|=a$ for each $v\in V(G)$ there exists a function $\varphi$ such that $\varphi(v)\in L(v)$ and $|\varphi(v)|=b$ for all $v\in V(G)$, and whenever vertices…
The thinness of a graph is a width parameter that generalizes some properties of interval graphs, which are exactly the graphs of thinness one. Many NP-complete problems can be solved in polynomial time for graphs with bounded thinness,…
The proximity $\pi = \pi (G)$ of a connected graph $G$ is the minimum, over all vertices, of the average distance from a vertex to all others. Similarly, the maximum is called the remoteness and denoted by $\rho = \rho (G)$. The concepts of…
Given an edge-coloring of a graph $G$, we associate to every vertex $v$ of $G$ the set of colors appearing on the edges incident with $v$. The palette index of $G$ is defined as the minimum number of such distinct sets, taken over all…
Consider a graph $G$ and a real-valued function $f$ defined on the degree set of $G$. The sum of the outputs $f(d_v)$ over all vertices $v\in V(G)$ of $G$ is usually known as the vertex-degree-function indices and is denoted by $H_f(G)$,…
