Counting the number of Hamiltonian cycles that are contained in a geometric graph is {\bf \#P}-complete even if the graph is known to be planar \cite{lot:refer}. A relaxation for problems in plane geometric graphs is to allow the geometric…

A graph $\G$ is {\em symmetric} or {\em arc-transitive} if its automorphism group $\Aut(\G)$ is transitive on the arc set of the graph, and $\G$ is {\em basic} if $\Aut(\G)$ has no non-trivial normal subgroup $N$ such that the quotient…

In this paper, we introduce the graph $G(S)$ of a bounded semilattice $S$, which is a generalization of the intersection graph of the substructures of an algebraic structure. We prove some general theorems about these graphs; as an example,…

An edge of a graph of order $n$ is pancyclic if it lies in a cycle of every length $3,\ldots,n$. A graph of order $n$ is vertex-pancyclic if every vertex lies in a cycle of every length $3,\ldots,n$. Recently, Li and Zhan proved that every…

Let $G$ be a 2-connected $n$-vertex graph and $N_s(G)$ be the total number of $s$-cliques in $G$. Let $k\ge 4$ and $s\ge 2$ be integers. In this paper, we show that if $G$ has an edge $e$ which is not on any cycle of length at least $k$,…

For integers $k\geq 1$ and $n\geq 2k+1$, the Schrijver graph $S(n,k)$ has as vertices all $k$-element subsets of $[n]:=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ that contain no two cyclically adjacent elements, and an edge between any two disjoint sets. More…
