In this paper, we prove an analogue of Corr\'adi and Hajnal's classical theorem. There exists $n_0$ such that for every $n \in 3\mathbb{Z}$ when $n \ge n_0$ the following holds. If $G$ is an oriented graph on $n$ vertices and every vertex…

We show that every triangulation (maximal planar graph) on $n\ge 6$ vertices can be flipped into a Hamiltonian triangulation using a sequence of less than $n/2$ combinatorial edge flips. The previously best upper bound uses $4$-connectivity…

We show that, if a $n$-vertex triangulation $T$ of maximum degree $\Delta$ has a dual that contains a cycle of length $\ell$, then $T$ has a non-crossing straight-line drawing in which some \emph{collinear set} of $\Omega(\ell/\Delta^4)$…

Let the Andr\'{a}sfai graph $\mathrm{And}_k$ be defined as the graph with vertex set $\{v_0,v_1,...c, v_{3k-2}\}$ and two vertices $v_i$ and $v_j$ being adjacent iff $|i-j| \equiv 1\mod 3$. The graphs $\mathrm{And}_k$ are maximal…

A triangulation of a polygon is a subdivision of it into triangles, using diagonals between its vertices. Two different triangulations of a polygon can be related by a sequence of flips: a flip replaces a diagonal by the unique other…

Given a triangulation of a point set in the plane, a \emph{flip} deletes an edge $e$ whose removal leaves a convex quadrilateral, and replaces $e$ by the opposite diagonal of the quadrilateral. It is well known that any triangulation of a…

In 1975, Erd\H{o}s asked for the maximum number of edges that an $n$-vertex graph can have if it does not contain two edge-disjoint cycles on the same vertex set. It is known that Tur\'an-type results can be used to prove an upper bound of…

In a simple drawing of a graph every pair of edges intersect each other in at most one point, which is either a common endvertex or a proper crossing. For each positive integer $n$, Negami identified a drawing $B_n$ of the complete…

An embedding of a graph on an orientable surface is orientably-regular (or rotary, in an equivalent terminology) if the group of orientation-preserving automorphisms of the embedding is transitive (and hence regular) on incident vertex-edge…

A graph $G$ contains another graph $H$ as an immersion if $H$ can be obtained from a subgraph of $G$ by splitting off edges and removing isolated vertices. There is an obvious necessary degree condition for the immersion containment: if $G$…

A graph is \emph{fan-crossing free} if it has a drawing in the plane so that each edge is crossed by independent edges, that is the crossing edges have distinct vertices. On the other hand, it is \emph{fan-crossing} if the crossing edges…

We show that every K_4-free graph G with n vertices can be made bipartite by deleting at most n^2/9 edges. Moreover, the only extremal graph which requires deletion of that many edges is a complete 3-partite graph with parts of size n/3.…

In a simple drawing of a graph, any two edges intersect in at most one point (either a common endpoint or a proper crossing). A simple drawing is generalized twisted if it fulfills certain rather specific constraints on how the edges are…

Given an $n$-vertex graph and two straight-line planar drawings of the graph that have the same faces and the same outer face, we show that there is a morph (i.e., a continuous transformation) between the two drawings that preserves…

Simple drawings are drawings of graphs in which the edges are Jordan arcs and each pair of edges share at most one point (a proper crossing or a common endpoint). We introduce a special kind of simple drawings that we call generalized…

We study the time that the simple exclusion process on the complete graph needs to reach equilibrium in terms of total variation distance. For the graph with n vertices and 1<<k<n/2 particles we show that the mixing time is of order…

Bipartite graphs model the relationships between two disjoint sets of entities in several applications and are naturally drawn as 2-layer graph drawings. In such drawings, the two sets of entities (vertices) are placed on two parallel lines…

Let $G$ be a connected graph with maximum degree $\Delta$. Brooks' theorem states that $G$ has a $\Delta$-coloring unless $G$ is a complete graph or an odd cycle. A graph $G$ is \emph{degree-choosable} if $G$ can be properly colored from…
