A class of countable infinite graphs with unbounded vertex degree is considered. In these graphs, the vertices of large degree `repel' each other, which means that the path distance between two such vertices cannot be smaller than a certain…
We extend the concept of the law of a finite graph to graphings, which are, in general, infinite graphs whose vertices are equipped with the structure of a probability space. By doing this, we obtain a vast array of new unimodular measures.…
In this paper we consider pushdown graphs, i.e. infinite graphs that can be described as transition graphs of deterministic real-time pushdown automata. We consider the case where some vertices are designated as being final and we built, in…
We study countable embedding-universal and homomorphism-universal structures and unify results related to both of these notions. We show that many universal and ultrahomogeneous structures allow a concise description (called here a finite…
There are different definitions of ends in non-locally-finite graphs which are all equivalent in the locally finite case. We prove the compactness of the end-topology that is based on the principle of removing finite sets of vertices and…
We introduce and study embeddings of graphs in finite projective planes, and present related results for some families of graphs including complete graphs and complete bipartite graphs. We also make connections between embeddings of graphs…
A paradigm that was successfully applied in the study of both pure and algorithmic problems in graph theory can be colloquially summarized as stating that "any graph is close to being the disjoint union of expanders". Our goal in this paper…
A random rooted graph is said to be sofic if it is the Benjamini-Schramm limit of a sequence of finite graphs. Given any finite graph $H$, we prove that every one-ended, unimodular random rooted graph that does not have H as a minor must be…
We prove that the invariably generating graph of a finite group can have an arbitrarily large number of connected components with at least two vertices.
Diophantine tuples are of ancient and modern interest, with a huge literature. In this paper we study Diophantine graphs, i.e., finite graphs whose vertices are distinct positive integers, and two vertices are linked by an edge if and only…
A graph G on n vertices is said to be extendable if G can be modified to form a new graph H on more than n vertices, while preserving the degrees of the vertices common to G and H. The added vertices all have the same degree and we define…
We prove a tight upper bound on the independence polynomial (and total number of independent sets) of cubic graphs of girth at least 5. The bound is achieved by unions of the Heawood graph, the point/line incidence graph of the Fano plane.…
Extending the work of Godsil and others, we investigate the notion of the inverse of a graph (specifically, of bipartite graphs with a unique perfect matching). We provide a concise necessary and sufficient condition for the invertibility…
We introduce a new class of countably infinite random geometric graphs, whose vertices are points in a metric space, and vertices are adjacent independently with probability p if the metric distance between the vertices is below a given…
We continue the study of projective Fra\"iss\'e limits developed by Irwin-Solecki and Panagiotopoulos-Solecki by investigating families of epimorphisms between finite trees and finite rooted trees. Ideas of monotone, confluent, and light…
A rigidity theory is developed for the Euclidean and non-Euclidean placements of countably infinite simple graphs in R^d with respect to the classical l^p norms, for d>1 and 1<p<\infty. Generalisations are obtained for the Laman and…
Boundary analysis is developed for a rich class of generally infinite weighted graphs with compact metric completions. These graph completions have totally disconnected boundaries. The classical notion of $\epsilon$-components and the…
Given a countable graph, we say a set $A$ of its vertices is \emph{universal} if it contains every countable graph as an induced subgraph, and $A$ is \emph{weakly universal} if it contains every finite graph as an induced subgraph. We show…
In this paper, we consider terminal reflexive polytopes arising from finite directed graphs and study the problem of deciding which directed graphs yield smooth Fano polytopes. We show that any centrally symmetric or pseudo-symmetric smooth…
A graph is maximal knotless if it is edge maximal for the property of knotless embedding in $R^3$. We show that such a graph has at least $\frac74 |V|$ edges, and construct an infinite family of maximal knotless graphs with $|E| <…
