Assume that there is a free group action of automorphisms on a bipartite graph. If there is a perfect matching on the factor graph, then obviously there is a perfect matching on the graph. Surprisingly, the reversed is also true for…

A graph is "$H$-free" if it has no induced subgraph isomorphic to $H$. A conjecture of Conlon, Fox and Sudakov states that for every graph $H$, there exists $s>0$ such that in every $H$-free graph with $n>1$ vertices, either some vertex has…

The annihilating-ideal graph of a commutative ring $R$ with unity is defined as the graph $\mathbb{AG}(R)$ with the vertex set is the set of all non-zero ideals with non-zero annihilators and two distinct vertices $I$ and $J$ are adjacent…

We determine all graphs whose matching polynomials have at most five distinct zeros. As a consequence, we find new families of graphs which are determined by their matching polynomial.

Let $X$ be a non-empty set of positive integers and $X^*=X\setminus \{1\}$. The divisibility graph $D(X)$ has $X^*$ as the vertex set and there is an edge connecting $a$ and $b$ with $a, b\in X^*$ whenever $a$ divides $b$ or $b$ divides…

Let $G$ be a finite group. A number of graphs with the vertex set $G$ have been studied, including the power graph, enhanced power graph, and commuting graph. These graphs form a hierarchy under the inclusion of edge sets, and it is useful…

A graph $\Gamma$ is $G$-symmetric if it admits $G$ as a group of automorphisms acting transitively on the set of arcs of $\Gamma$, where an arc is an ordered pair of adjacent vertices. Let $\Gamma$ be a $G$-symmetric graph such that its…

An independent set $I$ in a graph $G$ is maximal if $I$ is not properly contained in any other independent set of $G$. The study of maximal independent sets (MIS's) in various graphs is well-established, often focusing upon enumeration of…

A bisection of a graph is a bipartition of its vertex set such that the two resulting parts differ in size by at most 1, and its size is the number of edges that connect vertices in the two parts. The perfect matching condition and…

Let $v$ be a vertex of a graph $G$. By the local complementation of $G$ at $v$ we mean to complement the subgraph induced by the neighbors of $v$. This operator can be generalized as follows. Assume that, each edge of $G$ has a label in the…

A set $S$ of vertices in a graph $G$ is a dominating set if every vertex of $V(G) \setminus S$ is adjacent to a vertex in $S$. A coalition in $G$ consists of two disjoint sets of vertices $X$ and $Y$ of $G$, neither of which is a dominating…

A matching set $M$ in a graph $G$ is a collection of edges of $G$ such that no two edges from $M$ share a vertex. In this paper we consider some parameters related to the matching of regular graphs. We find the sixth coefficient of the…

We prove that if $G$ is a graph and $r_1, ..., r_k \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$ such that $\sum_{i=1}^k r_i \geq \Delta(G) + 2 - k$ then $V(G)$ can be partitioned into sets $V_1, ..., V_k$ such that $\Delta(G[V_i]) \leq r_i$ and $G[V_i]$…

If $G$ is a bridgeless cubic graph, Fulkerson conjectured that we can find 6 perfect matchings $M_1,...,M_6$ of $G$ with the property that every edge of $G$ is contained in exactly two of them and Berge conjectured that its edge set can be…

For a $2$-connected graph $G$ and vertices $u,v$ of $G$ we define an abstract graph $\mathcal{P}(G_{uv})$ whose vertices are the paths joining $u$ and $v$ in $G$, where paths $S$ and $T$ are adjacent if $T$ is obtained from $S$ by replacing…

A consistent path system in a graph $G$ is an intersection-closed collection of paths, with exactly one path between any two vertices in $G$. We call $G$ metrizable if every consistent path system in it is the system of geodesic paths…

A graph $\Gamma$ is called $G$-symmetric if it admits $G$ as a group of automorphisms acting transitively on the set of ordered pairs of adjacent vertices. We give a classification of $G$-symmetric graphs $\Gamma$ with $V(\Gamma)$ admitting…

We discuss the question whether the existence of perfect matchings in a cubic graph can be seen from the spectrum of its adjacency matrix. For regular graphs in general and for three edge-disjoint perfect matchings in a cubic graph (that…

A graph $G$ is perfectly divisible if, for every induced subgraph $H$ of $G$, either $V(H)$ is a stable set or admits a partition into two sets $X_1$ and $X_2$ such that $\omega(H[X_1]) < \omega(H)$ and $H[X_2]$ is a perfect graph. In this…

A subset $D\subseteq V_G$ is a dominating set of $G$ if every vertex in $V_G-D$ has a~neighbor in $D$, while $D$ is a paired-dominating set of $G$ if $D$ is a~dominating set and the subgraph induced by $D$ contains a perfect matching. A…
