Vertex bisection is a graph partitioning problem in which the aim is to find a partition into two equal parts that minimizes the number of vertices in one partition set that have a neighbor in the other set. We are interested in giving…

To compute the hyperbolicity constant is an almost intractable problem, thus it is natural to try to bound it in terms of some parameters of the graph. Let $\mathcal{G}(g,c,n)$ be the set of graphs $G$ with girth $g(G)=g$, circumference…

The vertex $k$-partiteness $v_k(G)$ of graph $G$ is defined as the fewest number of vertices whose deletion from $G$ yields a $k$-partite graph. In this paper, we introduce two concepts: monotonic decreasing topological index and monotonic…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a hypergraph with $n$ vertices. Suppose that $d_1,d_2,\ldots,d_n$ are degrees of the vertices of $\mathcal{H}$. The $t$-th graph entropy based on degrees of $\mathcal{H}$ is defined as $$ I_d^t(\mathcal{H})…

Two classical concepts of centrality in a graph are the median and the center. The connected notions of the status and the radius of a graph seem to be in no relation. In this paper, however, we show a clear connection of both concepts, as…

Let $\lambda^{*}$ be the maximum spectral radius of connected irregular graphs on $n$ vertices with maximum degree $\Delta$. Liu, Shen and Wang (2007) conjectured that $\lim_{n\rightarrow…

The modified eccentric connectivity index of a graph is defined as the sum of the products of eccentricity with the total degree of neighboring vertices, over all vertices of the graph. This is a generalization of eccentric connectivity…

We consider the edge-triangle model, a two-parameter family of exponential random graphs in which dependence between edges is introduced through triangles. In the so-called replica symmetric regime, the limiting free energy exists together…

We characterize the bipartite graphs that minimize the (first-degree based) entropy, among all bipartite graphs of given size, or given size and (upper bound on the) order. The extremal graphs turn out to be complete bipartite graphs, or…

Recently, a couple of degree-based topological indices, defined using a geometrical point of view of a graph edge, have attracted significant attention and being extensively investigated. Furtula and Oz [Complementary Topological Indices,…

This paper discusses a distance guarding concept on triangulation graphs, which can be associated with distance domination and distance vertex cover. We show how these subjects are interconnected and provide tight bounds for any n-vertex…

This paper consists of two halves. In the first half of the paper, we consider real-valued functions $f$ whose domain is the vertex set of a graph $G$ and that are Lipschitz with respect to the graph distance. By placing a uniform…

We wish to bring attention to a natural but slightly hidden problem, posed by Erd\H{o}s and Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il in the late 1980s, an edge version of the degree--diameter problem. Our main result is that, for any graph of maximum degree…

A good edge-labelling of a simple, finite graph is a labelling of its edges with real numbers such that, for every ordered pair of vertices (u,v), there is at most one nondecreasing path from u to v. In this paper we prove that any graph on…

Let $(n^+, n^0, n^-)$ denote the inertia of a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices. Nordhaus-Gaddum bounds are known for inertia, except for an upper bound for $n^-$. We conjecture that for any graph \[ n^-(G) + n^-(\bar{G}) \le 1.5(n - 1), \] and…

For a graph $G$, the edge Mostar index of $G$ is the sum of $|m_u(e|G)-m_v(e|G)|$ over all edges $e=uv$ of $G$, where $m_u(e|G)$ denotes the number of edges of $G$ that have a smaller distance in $G$ to $u$ than to $v$, and analogously for…

Large graphs are sometimes studied through their degree sequences (power law or regular graphs). We study graphs that are uniformly chosen with a given degree sequence. Under mild conditions, it is shown that sequences of such graphs have…
