Characterized are all simple undirected graphs $G$ such that any real symmetric matrix that has graph $G$ has no eigenvalues of multiplicity more than 2. All such graphs are partial 2-trees (and this follows from a result for rather general…

We show that every graph $G$ of maximum degree $\Delta$ and sufficiently large order has a vertex cutset $S$ of order at most $\Delta$ that induces a subgraph $G[S]$ of maximum degree at most $\Delta-3$. For $\Delta\in \{ 4,5\}$, we refine…

We prove that there is $c>0$ such that for all sufficiently large $n$, if $T_1,\dots,T_n$ are any trees such that $T_i$ has $i$ vertices and maximum degree at most $cn/\log n$, then $\{T_1,\dots,T_n\}$ packs into $K_n$. Our main result…

The {\em square} $G^2$ of a graph $G$ is the graph with the same vertex set as $G$ and with two vertices adjacent if their distance in $G$ is at most 2. Thomassen showed that every planar graph $G$ with maximum degree $\Delta(G)=3$…

In this paper, we address the problem of packing large trees in $G_{n,p}$. In particular, we prove the following result. Suppose that $T_1, \dotsc, T_N$ are $n$-vertex trees, each of which has maximum degree at most $(np)^{1/6} / (\log…

We investigate Ramsey numbers of bounded degree graphs and provide an interpolation between known results on the Ramsey numbers of general bounded degree graphs and bounded degree graphs of small bandwidth. Our main theorem implies that…

We show that for any $d\ge 2$ and $\Delta>0$ there exists $\eta>0$ such that the following holds: Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph with at least $\Omega(n^2)$ edges and let $H$ be an $n$-vertex $d$-degenerate graph with maximum degree at most…

A classical result of Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi shows that every large $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $(1/2+\gamma)n$ contains all spanning trees of bounded degree. We generalised this result to loose spanning…

For a graph $G$, let $\lambda_2(G)$ denote the second largest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of $G$. We determine the extremal trees with maximum/minimum adjacency eigenvalue $\lambda_2$ in the class $\mathcal{T}(n,d)$ of $n$-vertex…

For any $\alpha\in (0,1)$ and any $n^{\alpha}\leq d\leq n/2$, we show that $\lambda(G)\leq C_\alpha \sqrt{d}$ with probability at least $1-\frac{1}{n}$, where $G$ is the uniform random $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices, $\lambda(G)$ denotes…

In this paper it is shown that a complete graph with $n$ vertices has an optimal diagram, i.e., a diagram whose crossing number equals the value of Guy's formula, with a free maximal linear tree and without free hamiltonian cycles for any…

The maximum number of vertices in a graph of maximum degree $\Delta\ge 3$ and fixed diameter $k\ge 2$ is upper bounded by $(1+o(1))(\Delta-1)^{k}$. If we restrict our graphs to certain classes, better upper bounds are known. For instance,…

For a graph $G$, let $a(G)$ denote the maximum size of a subset of vertices that induces a forest. We prove the following. 1. Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$, maximum degree $\Delta>0$ and maximum clique size $\omega$. Then \[ a(G) \geq…

Let $\lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_n$ be the eigenvalues of a graph $G$. For any $k\geq 0$, the $k$-th spectral moment of $G$ is defined by $\M_k(G)=\lambda_1^k+\dots+\lambda_n^k$. We use the fact that $\M_k(G)$ is also the number of closed walks…

We prove that for any pair of constants $\epsilon>0$ and $\Delta$ and for $n$ sufficiently large, every family of trees of orders at most $n$, maximum degrees at most $\Delta$, and with at most $\binom{n}{2}$ edges in total packs into…

In this paper, we study some spanning trees with bounded degree and leaf degree from eigenvalues. For any integer $k\geq2$, a $k$-tree is a spanning tree in which every vertex has degree no more than $k$. Let $T$ be a spanning tree of a…

A graph $G$ contains a graph $H$ as an induced minor if $H$ can be obtained from $G$ after vertex deletions and edge contractions. We show that for every $k$-vertex planar graph $H$, every graph $G$ excluding $H$ as an induced minor and…

We show that $(n,d,\lambda)$-graphs with $\lambda=O(d/\log^3 n)$ are universal with respect to all bounded degree spanning trees. This significantly improves upon the previous best bound due to Han and Yang of the form…

For a given graph $H$, its subdivisions carry the same topological structure. The existence of $H$-subdivisions within a graph $G$ has deep connections with topological, structural and extremal properties of $G$. One prominent example of…

Given a graph $G$, the strong clique number of $G$, denoted $\omega_S(G)$, is the maximum size of a set $S$ of edges such that every pair of edges in $S$ has distance at most $2$ in the line graph of $G$. As a relaxation of the renowned…
