An antimagic labeling of a graph $G$ with $m$ edges is a bijection from $E(G)$ to $\{1,2,\ldots,m\}$ such that for all vertices $u$ and $v$, the sum of labels on edges incident to $u$ differs from that for edges incident to $v$. Hartsfield…

A graph $G = (V, E)$ is called antimagic if there exists a bijective labelling $f : E \rightarrow \{1, 2, \ldots, |E|\}$ such that the vertex-sums of labels over edges incident to a given vertex are all distinct. In this paper, we extend…

Let $k\ge 2$ be a positive integer and let $G$ be a simple graph of order $n$ with minimum degree $\delta$. A graph $G$ is said to have property $P(k, d)$ if it contains $k$ edge-disjoint spanning trees and an additional forest $F$ with…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is called $d$-rigid if, for a generic embedding of its vertices in $\mathbb{R}^d$, every edge-length preserving continuous motion of the vertices preserves the distances between all pairs of non-adjacent vertices as well.…

Let $G$ be a connected graph with $V(G)=\{v_1,\ldots,v_n\}$. The $(i,j)$-entry of the distance matrix $D(G)$ of $G$ is the distance between $v_i$ and $v_j$. In this article, using the well-known Ramsey's theorem, we prove that for each…

A realization of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a map $v\colon V\to\Bbb R^d$ that assigns to each vertex a point in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. We study graph realizations from the perspective of representation theory (expressing certain…

A {\em resolving set} for a graph $\Gamma$ is a collection of vertices $S$, chosen so that for each vertex $v$, the list of distances from $v$ to the members of $S$ uniquely specifies $v$. The {\em metric dimension} of $\Gamma$ is the…

Let $\ell$ denote a positive integer. A connected graph $\G$ of diameter at least $\ell$ is said to be $\ell${\it -distance-balanced} whenever for any pair of vertices $u,v$ of $\G$ such that $d(u,v)=\ell$, the number of vertices closer to…

The eccentricity of a vertex $v$ in a graph $G$ is the maximum distance between $v$ and any other vertex of $G$. The diameter of a graph $G$ is the maximum eccentricity of a vertex in $G$. The eccentric connectivity index of a connected…

Various different random graph models have been proposed in which the vertices of the graph are seen as members of a metric space, and edges between vertices are determined as a function of the distance between the corresponding metric…
