The imbalance of an edge $e=\{u,v\}$ in a graph is defined as $i(e)=|d(u)-d(v)|$, where $d(\cdot)$ is the vertex degree. The irregularity $I(G)$ of $G$ is then defined as the sum of imbalances over all edges of $G$. This concept was…

Let k be a natural number. We introduce k-threshold graphs. We show that there exists an O(n^3) algorithm for the recognition of k-threshold graphs for each natural number k. k-Threshold graphs are characterized by a finite collection of…

We derive a new upper bound on the algebraic connectivity of a regular graph using the Higman-Sims technique. Together with a new result on the connectivity of the neighbourhood graph of strongly regular graphs, our result gives a…

Let $k$, $m$ and $r$ be three integers such that $2\leq k\leq m\leq r$. Let $G$ be a $2r$-regular, $2m$-edge-connected graph of odd order. We obtain some sufficient conditions, which guarantee $G-v$ contains a $k$-factor for all $v\in…

We prove that for every $d\in \mathbb{N}$ and a graph class of bounded expansion $\mathscr{C}$, there exists some $c\in \mathbb{N}$ so that every graph from $\mathscr{C}$ admits a proper coloring with at most $c$ colors satisfying the…

Let $k\ge 1$ be an odd integer, $t=\lfloor {{k+2}\over 4}\rfloor$, and $q$ be a prime power. We construct a bipartite, $q$-regular, edge-transitive graph $C\!D(k,q)$ of order $v \le 2q^{k-t+1}$ and girth $g \ge k+5$. If $e$ is the the…

For any graphs $G$ and $H$, we say that a bound is of Vizing-type if $\gamma(G\square H)\geq c \gamma(G)\gamma(H)$ for some constant $c$. We show several bounds of Vizing-type for graphs $G$ with forbidden induced subgraphs. In particular,…

In this paper we give tight upper bounds on the total domination number, the weakly connected domination number and the connected domination number of a graph in terms of order and Euler characteristic. We also present upper bounds for the…

Settling Kahn's conjecture (2001), we prove the following upper bound on the number $i(G)$ of independent sets in a graph $G$ without isolated vertices: \[ i(G) \le \prod_{uv \in E(G)} i(K_{d_u,d_v})^{1/(d_u d_v)}, \] where $d_u$ is the…

A two-coloring of the vertices $V$ of the hypergraph $H=(V, E)$ by red and blue has discrepancy $d$ if $d$ is the largest difference between the number of red and blue points in any edge. Let $f(n)$ be the fewest number of edges in an…

Let $G$ be a simple undirected graph. The regular number of $G$ is defined to be the minimum number of subsets into which the edge set of $G$ can be partitioned so that the subgraph induced by each subset is regular. In this work, we obtain…

Let P_{n,d,D} denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all labelled planar graphs on {1,2,...,n} with minimum degree at least d(n) and maximum degree at most D(n). We use counting arguments to investigate the probability…

Let G(n,d) be the random d-regular graph on n vertices. For any integer k exceeding a certain constant k_0 we identify a number d_{k-col} such that G(n,d) is k-colorable w.h.p. if d<d_{k-col} and non-k-colorable w.h.p. if d>d_{k-col}.

In 2018, by Ramsey and Hoffman theory, Koolen, Yang, and Yang presented a structural result on graphs with smallest eigenvalue at least $-3$ and large minimum degree. In this study, we depart from the conventional use of Ramsey theory and…

For graphs $F$ and $H$, let $f_{F,H}(n)$ be the minimum possible size of a maximum $F$-free induced subgraph in an $n$-vertex $H$-free graph. This notion generalizes the Ramsey function and the Erd\H{o}s--Rogers function. Establishing a…

The classical K\H{o}v\'ari-S\'os-Tur\'an theorem states that if $G$ is an $n$-vertex graph with no copy of $K_{s,t}$ as a subgraph, then the number of edges in $G$ is at most $O(n^{2-1/s})$. We prove that if one forbids $K_{s,t}$ as an…

We prove new lower bounds on the modularity of graphs. Specifically, the modularity of a graph $G$ with average degree $\bar d$ is $\Omega(\bar{d}^{-1/2})$, under some mild assumptions on the degree sequence of $G$. The lower bound…

Let $G= (V,E)$ be a finite graph. For $d_0>0$ we say that $G$ is $d_0$-regular, if every $v\in V$ has degree $d_0$. We say that $G$ is $(d_0, d_1)$-regular, for $0<d_1<d_0$, if $G$ is $d_0$ regular and for every $v\in V$, the subgraph…

Let $G$ be a simple finite connected graph. The line graph $L(G)$ of graph $G$ is the graph whose vertices are the edges of $G$, where $ef \in E(L(G))$ when $e \cap f \neq \emptyset$. Iteratively, the higher order line graphs are defined…

We give a bound for the graph energy with given maximal degree in terms of the second and fourth moments of a graph. In the case in which the graph is $d$-regular we obtain the bound that is given in Van Dam, E. et al. (2014). through…
