A plane graph is said to be a rectangular graph if each of its edges can be oriented horizontal or vertical, its internal regions are four-sided and it has a rectangular enclosure. If dual of a planar graph is a rectangular graph, then the…
Simple drawings are drawings of graphs in which any two edges intersect at most once (either at a common endpoint or a proper crossing), and no edge intersects itself. We analyze several characteristics of simple drawings of complete…
Best match graphs (BMGs) are a class of colored digraphs that naturally appear in mathematical phylogenetics and can be approximated with the help of similarity measures between gene sequences, albeit not without errors. The corresponding…
Graphs on integer points of polytopes whose edges come from a set of allowed differences are studied. It is shown that any simple graph can be embedded in that way. The minimal dimension of such a representation is the fiber dimension of…
The metric dimension of a graph is the least number of vertices in a set with the property that the list of distances from any vertex to those in the set uniquely identifies that vertex. Bailey and Meagher obtained an upper bound on the…
The class of intersection bigraphs of unit intervals of the real line whose ends may be open or closed is called a class of mixed unit interval bigraphs. This class of bigraphs is a strict superclass of the class of unit interval bigraphs.…
Let $C_{d,k}$ be the largest number of vertices in a Cayley digraph of degree $d$ and diameter $k$, and let $BC_{d,k}$ be the largest order of a bipartite Cayley digraph for given $d$ and $k$. For every degree $d\geq2$ and for every odd $k$…
The Tur\'an type extremal problem asks to maximize the number of edges over all graphs which do not contain fixed subgraphs. Similarly, the spectral Tur\'an type extremal problem asks to maximize spectral radius of all graphs which do not…
We study recursive-cube-of-rings (RCR), a class of scalable graphs that can potentially provide rich inter-connection network topology for the emerging distributed and parallel computing infrastructure. Through rigorous proof and validating…
Motivated by the concept of well-covered graphs, we define a graph to be well-bicovered if every vertex-maximal bipartite subgraph has the same order (which we call the bipartite number). We first give examples of them, compare them with…
We describe an algorithm that morphs between two planar orthogonal drawings $\Gamma_I$ and $\Gamma_O$ of a connected graph $G$, while preserving planarity and orthogonality. Necessarily $\Gamma_I$ and $\Gamma_O$ share the same combinatorial…
The \emph{distance-number} of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of distinct edge-lengths over all straight-line drawings of $G$ in the plane. This definition generalises many well-known concepts in combinatorial geometry. We consider the…
A directed hypergraph (dihypergraph) consists of a set of vertices and a set of hyperarcs, where each hyperarc is partitioned into a head and a tail. Directed hypergraphs are useful in many applications, including the study of chemical…
We study the connectedness and the diameter of orthogonality graphs of upper triangular matrix algebras over arbitrary fields.
Let \(G\) be a finite group, and let \(\Delta(G)\) denote the \emph{prime graph} built on the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of \(G\). It is well known that, whenever \(\Delta(G)\) is connected, the diameter of…
Rotary maps (orientably regular maps) are highly symmetric graph embeddings on orientable surfaces. This paper classifies all rotary maps whose underlying graphs are Praeger-Xu graphs, denoted $\operatorname{C}(p,r,s)$, for any odd prime…
The spectral radius and rank of a graph are defined to be the spectral radius and rank of its adjacency matrix, respectively. It is an important problem in spectral extremal graph theory to determine the extremal graph that has the maximum…
An important topic in the design of efficient networks is the construction of $(d,k,+\epsilon )$-digraphs, i.e. $k$-geodetic digraphs with minimum out-degree $\geq d$ and order $M(d,k)+ \epsilon $, where $M(d,k)$ represents the Moore bound…
Considering regular graphs with every edge in a triangle we prove lower bounds for the number of triangles in such graphs. For r-regular graphs with r <= 5 we exhibit families of graphs with exactly that number of triangles and then…
Given two $k$-dicolourings of a digraph $D$, we prove that it is PSPACE-complete to decide whether we can transform one into the other by recolouring one vertex at each step while maintaining a dicolouring at any step even for $k=2$ and for…
