Using existing technology, we prove a Masur-Minsky style distance formula for flip- graph distance between two triangulations, expressed as a sum of the distances of the projections of these triangulations into arc graphs of the suitable…
The diameter of a graph measures the maximal distance between any pair of vertices. The diameters of many small-world networks, as well as a variety of other random graph models, grow logarithmically in the number of nodes. In contrast, the…
Merge-width is a recently introduced family of graph parameters that unifies treewidth, clique-width, twin-width, and generalised colouring numbers. We prove the equivalence of several alternative definitions of merge-width, thus…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite, combinatorial graph. We define a notion of curvature on the vertices $V$ via the inverse of the resistance distance matrix. We prove that this notion of curvature has a number of desirable properties. Graphs with…
This paper generalizes and unifies the existing spectral bounds on the $k$-independence number of a graph, which is the maximum size of a set of vertices at pairwise distance greater than $k$. The previous bounds known in the literature…
It is easy to see that in a connected graph any 2 longest paths have a vertex in common. For k>=7, Skupien in [7] obtained a connected graph in which some k longest paths have no common vertex, but every k-1 longest paths have a common…
The class of 2-interval graphs has been introduced for modelling scheduling and allocation problems, and more recently for specific bioinformatic problems. Some of those applications imply restrictions on the 2-interval graphs, and justify…
An interval graph is proper iff it has a representation in which no interval contains another. Fred Roberts characterized the proper interval graphs as those containing no induced star $K_{1,3}$. Proskurowski and Telle have studied…
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.
Using Konderak's representation formula, we construct an entire zero-mean curvature graph of mixed-type in Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space over a space-like plane, which does not belong to the class of "Kobayashi surfaces". We also point out the…
A $d$-dimensional bar-and-joint framework $(G,p)$ with underlying graph $G$ is called universally rigid if all realizations of $G$ with the same edge lengths, in all dimensions, are congruent to $(G,p)$. A graph $G$ is said to be…
We study the logical properties of infinite geometric random graphs, introduced by Bonato and Janssen. These are graphs whose vertex set is a dense ``generic'' subset of a metric space, where two vertices are adjacent with probability $p>0$…
If a graph has no induced subgraph isomorphic to $H_1$ or $H_2$ then it is said to be ($H_1,H_2$)-free. Dabrowski and Paulusma found 13 open cases for the question whether the clique-width of ($H_1,H_2$)-free graphs is bounded. One of them…
The Moore bound constitutes both an upper bound on the order of a graph of maximum degree $d$ and diameter $D=k$ and a lower bound on the order of a graph of minimum degree $d$ and odd girth $g=2k+1$. Graphs missing or exceeding the Moore…
We study gaps in the spectra of the adjacency matrices of large finite cubic graphs. It is known that the gap intervals $(2 \sqrt{2},3)$ and $[-3,-2)$ achieved in cubic Ramanujan graphs and line graphs are maximal. We give constraints on…
The fine curve graph of a surface is a graph whose vertices are essential simple closed curves and whose edges connect disjoint curves. Following a rich history of hyperbolicity of various graphs associated to surfaces, the fine curve graph…
A Kirchhoff graph is a vector graph with orthogonal cycles and vertex cuts. An algorithm has been developed that constructs all the Kirchhoff graphs up to a fixed edge multiplicity. This algorithm is used to explore the structure of prime…
It is proved that there exist graphs of bounded degree with arbitrarily large queue-number. In particular, for all $\Delta\geq3$ and for all sufficiently large $n$, there is a simple $\Delta$-regular $n$-vertex graph with queue-number at…
We describe the class of graphs for which all metric spaces with diametrical graphs belonging to this class are ultrametric. It is shown that a metric space $(X, d)$ is ultrametric iff the diametrical graph of the metric $d_{\varepsilon}(x,…
We examine connections between the gonality, treewidth, and orientable genus of a graph. Especially, we find that hyperelliptic graphs in the sense of Baker and Norine are planar. We give a notion of a bielliptic graph and show that each of…
