The Hall ratio of a graph G is the maximum of |V(H)|/alpha(H) over all subgraphs H of G. Clearly, the Hall ratio of a graph is a lower bound for the fractional chromatic number. It has been asked whether conversely, the fractional chromatic…

A random graph order is a partial order obtained from a random graph on $[n]$ by taking the transitive closure of the adjacency relation. The dimension of the random graph orders from random bipartite graphs $B(n,n,p)$ and from $G(n,p)$…

We show that if $G$ is a $n$-vertex connected chordal graph, then it admits a longest path transversal of size $O(\log^2 n)$. Under the stronger assumption of 2-connectivity, we show $G$ admits a longest cycle transversal of size $O(\log…

We prove that in an n-vertex graph, induced chordal and interval subgraphs with the maximum number of vertices can be found in time $O(2^{\lambda n})$ for some $\lambda<1$. These are the first algorithms breaking the trivial $2^n n^{O(1)}$…

In this paper, the on-line list colouring of binomial random graphs G(n,p) is studied. We show that the on-line choice number of G(n,p) is asymptotically almost surely asymptotic to the chromatic number of G(n,p), provided that the average…

For any fixed integer $R \geq 2$ we characterise the typical structure of undirected graphs with vertices $1, ..., n$ and maximum degree $R$, as $n$ tends to infinity. The information is used to prove that such graphs satisfy a labelled…

For a graph $G$, denote by $t(G)$ (resp. $b(G)$) the maximum size of a triangle-free (resp. bipartite) subgraph of $G$. Of course $t(G) \geq b(G)$ for any $G$, and a classic result of Mantel from 1907 (the first case of Tur\'an's Theorem)…

Recently there has been much interest in studying random graph analogues of well known classical results in extremal graph theory. Here we follow this trend and investigate the structure of triangle-free subgraphs of $G(n,p)$ with high…

We consider embeddings of maximal outerplanar graphs whose vertices all lie on a cycle $\mathcal{C}$ bounding a face. Each edge of the graph that is not in $\mathcal{C}$, a chord, is assigned a length equal to the length of the shortest…

Given a graph $G$ and $p\in [0,1]$, the random subgraph $G_p$ is obtained by retaining each edge of $G$ independently with probability $p$. We show that for every $\epsilon>0$, there exists a constant $C>0$ such that the following holds.…

The fractional matching number of a graph G, is the maximum size of a fractional matching of G. The following sharp lower bounds for a graph G of order n are proved, and all extremal graphs are characterized in this paper. (1)The sum of the…

For a fixed graph G, a maximal independent set is an independent set that is not a proper subset of any other independent set. P. Erd\"os, and independently, J. W. Moon and L. Moser, and R. E. Miller and D. E. Muller, determined the maximum…

A bipartite graph is subcubic if it is an irregular bipartite graph with maximum degree three. In this paper, we prove that the asymptotic value of maximum spectral radius over subcubic bipartite graphs of order $n$ is…

This paper investigates the asymptotic nature of graph spectra when some edges of a graph are subdivided sufficiently many times. In the special case where all edges of a graph are subdivided, we find the exact limits of the $k$-th largest…

Let G be a graph of order n and let q(G) be that largest eigenvalue of the signless Laplacian of G. In this note it is shown that if k>1 and q(G)>=n+2k-2, then G contains cycles of length l whenever 2<l<2k+3. This bound is asymptotically…

For a constant $\gamma \in[0,1]$ and a graph $G$, let $\omega_{\gamma}(G)$ be the largest integer $k$ for which there exists a $k$-vertex subgraph of $G$ with at least $\gamma\binom{k}{2}$ edges. We show that if $0<p<\gamma<1$ then…

A bipartite graph is chordal bipartite if every cycle of length at least six contains a chord. We determine the minimum size in 2-connected chordal bipartite graphs with given order.

We prove that a random graph $G(n,p)$, with $p$ above the Hamiltonicity threshold, is typically such that for any $r$-colouring of its edges there exists a Hamilton cycle with at least $(2/(r+ 1)-o(1))n$ edges of the same colour. This…

Let $K_n$ be the complete graph with $n$ vertices and $c_1, c_2, ..., c_r$ be $r$ different colors. Suppose we randomly and uniformly color the edges of $K_n$ in $c_1, c_2, ..., c_r$. Then we get a random graph, denoted by…

We study the neighborhood polynomial and the complexity of its computation for chordal graphs. The neighborhood polynomial of a graph is the generating function of subsets of its vertices that have a common neighbor. We introduce a…
