A signed graph is a graph whose edges are labelled positive or negative. The sign of a circle (cycle, circuit) is the product of the signs of its edges. Most of the essential properties of a signed graph depend on the signs of its circles.…
We prove a number of results, new and old, about the cycle type of a random permutation on S_n. Underlying our analysis is the idea that the number of cycles of size k is roughly Poisson distributed with parameter 1/k. In particular, we…
Consider a family of graphs having a fixed girth and a large size. We give an optimal lower asymptotic bound on the number of even cycles of any constant length, as the order of the graphs tends to infinity.
In this paper, we study the occurrence of patterns in the cycle structures of permutations.
Different ways to describe a permutation, as a sequence of integers, or a product of Coxeter generators, or a tree, give different choices to define a simple permutation. We recollect few of them, define new types of simple permutations,…
A pancyclic graph is a graph that contains cycles of all possible lengths from three up to the number of vertices in the graph. In this paper, we establish some new sufficient conditions for a graph to be pancyclic in terms of the edge…
We show that a sequence of graphs with geometric property (T) has many small cycles. We also show that when a small part of a sequence of graphs with geometric property (T) is changed, it still has geometric property (T), provided that it…
An $n\times n$ matrix $M=[m_{ij}]$ with $m_{ij}\in U_n=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ will be called a cycle matrix if $(U_n,\cdot)$ is a cycle set, where $i\cdot j=m_{ij}$. We study these matrices in this article. Using these matrices, we give some…
Some genes can change their relative locations in a genome. Thus for different individuals of the same species, the orders of genes might be different. Such jumping genes are called transposons. A practical problem is to determine…
A proper edge $t$-coloring of a graph is a coloring of its edges with colors $1,2,...,t$ such that all colors are used, and no two adjacent edges receive the same color. For any integer $n\geq 3$, all possible values of $t$ are found, for…
We introduce a very general model of an inhomogenous random graph with independence between the edges, which scales so that the number of edges is linear in the number of vertices. This scaling corresponds to the p=c/n scaling for G(n,p)…
A pancyclic graph is a simple graph containing a cycle of length $k$ for all $3\leq k\leq n$. Let $m(n)$ be the minimum number of edges of all pancyclic graphs on $n$ vertices. Exact values are given for $m(n)$ for $n\leq 37$, combining…
Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices. A vertex of $G$ with degree at least $n/2$ is called a heavy vertex, and a cycle of $G$ which contains all the heavy vertices of $G$ is called a heavy cycle. In this paper, we characterize the graphs…
We count cycles of an unbounded length in generalized Johnson graphs. Asymptotics of the number of such cycles is obtained for certain growth rates of the cycle length.
A graph is near-bipartite if its vertex set can be partitioned into an independent set and a set which induces a forest. In this paper, planar graphs without cycles of length from 4 to 7 are shown to be near-bipartite.
Taking the absolute value of consecutive differences of a cyclicly ordered list of integers constitutes a simple dynamical system. For lists of lenght a power of two the process will terminate in all zeros, but examples with arbitarily long…
If every element of a matrix group is similar to a permutation matrix, then it is called a permutation-like matrix group. References [4], [5] and [6] showed that, if a permutation-like matrix group contains a maximal cycle such that the…
The simple connected graphs may be classified by their cycle composition (number and lengths of cycles). This work derives the counting series of the simple connected graphs that have cycles of unrestricted number and length, but no…
It is well-known that any permutation can be written as a product of two involutions. We provide an explicit formula for the number of ways to do so, depending only on the cycle type of the permutation. In many cases, these numbers are sums…
A geometric graph is a drawing of a graph in the plane where the vertices are drawn as points in general position and the edges as straight-line segments connecting their endpoints. It is plane if it contains no crossing edges. We study…
