Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and edge set $E(G)$. The resistance distance $R_G(x,y)$ between two vertices $x,y$ of $G$ is defined to be the effective resistance between the two vertices in the corresponding…

In this paper, we extend and refine previous Tur\'an-type results on graphs with a given circumference. Let $W_{n,k,c}$ be the graph obtained from a clique $K_{c-k+1}$ by adding $n-(c-k+1)$ isolated vertices each joined to the same $k$…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a directed graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. The graph $G$ is called singly-connected if for each pair of vertices $v,w \in V$ there is at most one simple path from $v$ to $w$ in $G$. Buchsbaum and Carlisle (1993) gave…

Let $\Lambda(T)$ denote the set of leaves in a tree $T$. One natural problem is to look for a spanning tree $T$ of a given graph $G$ such that $\Lambda(T)$ is as large as possible. This problem is called maximum leaf number, and it is a…

Brualdi and Hoffman proposed a well-known problem of determining the graph with maximum adjacency spectral radius among all graphs with given size $m$. Early work by Friedland and Stanley addressed some specific cases. This problem was…

A set $V$ is said to be separated by subsets $V_1,\ldots,V_k$ if, for every pair of distinct elements of $V$, there is a set $V_i$ that contains exactly one of them. Imposing structural constraints on the separating subsets is often…

k-connectivity of random graphs is a fundamental property indicating reliability of multi-hop wireless sensor networks (WSN). WSNs comprising of sensor nodes with limited power resources are modeled by random graphs with unreliable nodes,…

Let $G$ be a (multi)graph of order $n$ and let $u,v$ be vertices of $G$. The maximum number of internally disjoint $u$-$v$ paths in $G$ is denoted by $\kappa_G(u,v)$, and the maximum number of edge-disjoint $u$-$v$ paths in $G$ is denoted…

Boesch, Li, and Suffel were the first to identify the existence of uniformly optimally reliable graphs (UOR graphs), graphs which maximize all-terminal reliability over all graphs with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. The all-terminal…

For integers $g,m \geq 0$ and $n>0$, let $S_{g}(n,m)$ denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all graphs on $\{1,2, \ldots, n\}$ with exactly $m=m(n)$ edges and with genus at most $g$. We use counting arguments to…

Given a distribution of pebbles on the vertices of a graph, say that we can pebble a vertex if a pebble is left on it after some sequence of moves, each of which takes two pebbles from some vertex and places one on an adjacent vertex. A…

We study the Telephone Broadcasting problem in graphs with restricted structure. Given a designated source in an undirected graph, the goal is to disseminate a message to all vertices in the minimum number of rounds, where in each round…

A graph $G = (V,E)$ is globally rigid in $\mathbb{R}^d$ if for any generic placement $p : V \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^d$ of the vertices, the edge lengths $||p(u) - p(v)||, uv \in E$ uniquely determine $p$, up to congruence. In this paper we…

Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ nodes. In this note, we prove that if $G$ is $(r+1)$-vertex connected, $1 \leq r \leq n-2$, then there exists a configuration $p$ in general position in $R^r$ such that the bar framework $(G,p)$ is universally…

A permutation of [n] induces a graph on [n] such that the edges of the graph correspond to inversion pairs of the permutation. This graph is connected if and only if the corresponding permutation is indecomposable. Let s(n,m) denote a…

In this paper, we study the large-scale structure of dense regular graphs. This involves the notion of robust expansion, a recent concept which has already been used successfully to settle several longstanding problems. Roughly speaking, a…

We find conditions for the connectivity of inhomogeneous random graphs with intermediate density. Our results generalize the classical result for G(n, p), when p = c log n/n. We draw n independent points X_i from a general distribution on a…

We introduce and investigate a new notion of resilience in graph spanners. Let $S$ be a spanner of a graph $G$. Roughly speaking, we say that a spanner $S$ is resilient if all its point-to-point distances are resilient to edge failures.…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, and let $\varepsilon,\psi \in (0,1)$ be parameters. Here, we consider the task of constructing a $(1+\varepsilon)$-spanner for $P$, where every edge might fail (independently) with…

Robustness is a critical measure of the resilience of large networked systems, such as transportation and communication networks. Most prior works focus on the global robustness of a given graph at large, e.g., by measuring its overall…
