Around 2008, Schramm conjectured that the critical probabilities for Bernoulli bond percolation satisfy the following continuity property: If $(G_n)_{n\geq 1}$ is a sequence of transitive graphs converging locally to a transitive graph $G$…

Let $G$ be a connected simple graph on the vertex set $[n]$. Banerjee-Betancourt proved that $depth(S/J_G)\leq n+1$. In this article, we prove that if $G$ is a unicyclic graph, then the depth of $S/J_G$ is bounded below by $n$. Also, we…

Consider a surface $\Sigma$ with punctures that serve as marked points and at least one marked point on each boundary component. We build a filling surface $\Sigma_n$ by singling out one of the boundary components and denoting by $n$ the…

A restricted permutation of a locally finite directed graph $G=(V,E)$ is a vertex permutation $\pi: V\to V$ for which $(v,\pi(v))\in E$, for any vertex $v\in V$. The set of such permutations, denoted by $\Omega(G)$, with a group action…

The Second Neighborhood Conjecture of Seymour asserts that every oriented graph contains a vertex~$v$ satisfying $|\Npp(v)|\ge|\Np(v)|$. We introduce \emph{Pisa graphs} -- strongly connected oriented graphs~$D$ with $\Delta(D)=\max_{v\in…

We prove the following result: If $G$ be a connected graph on $n \ge 6$ vertices, then there exists a set of vertices $D$ with $|D| \le \frac{n}{3}$ and such that $V(G) \setminus N[D]$ is an independent set, where $N[D]$ is the closed…

Let $S_{n}$ denote the set of permutations of $[n]=\{1,2,\dots, n\}$. For a positive integer $k$, define $S_{n,k}$ to be the set of all permutations of $[n]$ with exactly $k$ disjoint cycles, i.e., \[ S_{n,k} = \{\pi \in S_{n}: \pi =…

For each $n\in N ^{\ast }$, we write $s_{n}=\left( 1,\ldots ,1,0\right) $ with $n$ times $1$. For each $a \in N$, we consider the binary representation $\left( a_{i}\right) _{i\in -N }$ of $a$ with $a_{i}=0$ for nearly each $i$; we denote…

For a graph $G$, let $\sigma_{2}(G)$ be the minimum degree sum of two non-adjacent vertices in $G$. A chord of a cycle in a graph $G$ is an edge of $G$ joining two non-consecutive vertices of the cycle. In this paper, we prove the following…

Let $r_1$ and $r_2$ be positive integers with $r_1 \le r_2$. A graph $G$ is called $2$-DCC vertex $[r_1,r_2]$-pancyclic if, for any two distinct vertices of $G$ and any integer $\ell \in [r_1,r_2]$, there exist two vertex-disjoint cycles of…

Mixed graphs can be seen as digraphs with arcs and edges (or digons, that is, two opposite arcs). In this paper, we consider the case where such graphs are bipartite and in which the undirected and directed degrees are one. The best graphs,…

Given a permutation $\pi$, let $\text{Av}_n(\pi)$ be the number of permutations of length $n$ that avoid $\pi$ as a subpermutation. The celebrated resolution of the Stanley-Wilf conjecture by Marcus and Tardos confirmed that the limit…

Let $V$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane. For each $x\in V$, let $B_x$ be the closed circular disk centered at $x$ with radius equal to the distance from $x$ to its closest neighbor. The {\it closed sphere of influence graph} on $V$ is…

We obtain some new upper bounds on the maximum number $f(n)$ of edges in $n$-vertex graphs without containing cycles of length four. This leads to an asymptotically optimal bound on $f(n)$ for a broad range of integers $n$ as well as a…

Let $\pi$ be a permutation of $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$. If we identify a permutation with its graph, namely the set of $n$ dots at positions $(i,\pi(i))$, it is natural to consider the minimum $L^1$ (Manhattan) distance, $d(\pi)$, between any…

For every integer $k \ge 3$, we determine the extremal structure of an $n$-vertex graph with at most $t$ vertex-disjoint copies of $C_{2k}$ when $n$ is sufficiently large and $t$ lies in the interval…

For a vertex $x$ of a digraph, $d^+(x)$ ($d^-(x)$, resp.) is the number of vertices at distance 1 from (to, resp.) $x$ and $d^{++}(x)$ is the number of vertices at distance 2 from $x$. In 1995, Seymour conjectured that for any oriented…

We investigate decompositions of a graph into a small number of low diameter subgraphs. Let P(n,\epsilon,d) be the smallest k such that every graph G=(V,E) on n vertices has an edge partition E=E_0 \cup E_1 \cup ... \cup E_k such that |E_0|…

An old conjecture of Erd{\H{o}}s and Gallai states that every $n$ vertex graph can be decomposed, that is $E(G)$ can be partitioned, into $O(n)$ cycles and edges. The covering version of this conjecture was proven by Pyber in 1985, where it…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a class of graphs that is closed under taking subgraphs. We prove that if for some fixed $0<\delta\le 1$, every $n$-vertex graph of $\mathcal{C}$ has a balanced separator of order $O(n^{1-\delta})$, then any depth-$k$…
