A Roman dominating function on a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a function $f:V\rightarrow\{0,1,2\}$ such that every vertex $v\in V$ with $f(v)=0$ has at least one neighbor $u\in V$ with $f(u)=2$. The weight of a Roman dominating function is the value…

The congested clique model is a message-passing model of distributed computation where the underlying communication network is the complete graph of $n$ nodes. In this paper we consider the situation where the joint input to the nodes is an…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let ${\rm{cd}}(G)$ denote the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of $G$. The degree graph $\Delta(G)$ of $G$ is defined as the simple undirected graph whose vertex set ${\rm{V}}(G)$ consists…

The Maximum s-Bundle Problem (MBP) addresses the task of identifying a maximum s-bundle in a given graph. A graph G=(V, E) is called an s-bundle if its vertex connectivity is at least |V|-s, where the vertex connectivity equals the minimum…

Due to data compression or low resolution, nearby vertices and edges of a graph drawing may be bundled to a common node or arc. We model such a `compromised' drawing by a piecewise linear map $\varphi:G\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^2$. We wish to…

The primary objective of this paper is to investigate the notions of geometric and sequential convexity within a graph-theoretic framework, with the aim of examining various structural properties and exploring the connection between these…

The \emph{minimum leaf number} $\hbox{ml} (G)$ of a connected graph $G$ is defined as the minimum number of leaves of the spanning trees of $G$. We present new results concerning the minimum leaf number of cubic graphs: we show that if $G$…

Let $r \geq 2$ be a real number. A complex nowhere-zero $r$-flow on a graph $G$ is an orientation of $G$ together with an assignment $\varphi\colon E(G)\to \mathbb{C}$ such that, for all $e \in E(G)$, the modulus of the complex number…

Graph burning is a discrete-time process that models the propagation of information in a network. Initially, we have an undirected graph of unburned vertices. At each time step, an unburned vertex is chosen to burn; additionally, unburned…

We investigate graph problems in the following setting: we are given a graph $G$ and we are required to solve a problem on $G^2$. While we focus mostly on exploring this theme in the distributed CONGEST model, we show new results and…

The bondage number b(G) of a graph G is the smallest number of edges of G whose removal from G results in a graph having the domination number larger than that of G. We show that, for a graph G having the maximum vertex degree $\Delta(G)$…

A global forcing set for maximal matchings of a graph $G=(V(G), E(G))$ is a set $S \subseteq E(G)$ such that $M_1\cap S \neq M_2 \cap S$ for each pair of maximal matchings $M_1$ and $M_2$ of $G$. The smallest such set is called a minimum…

For a graph $G = (V, E)$, a Roman dominating function $f : V \rightarrow \{0, 1, 2\}$ has the property that every vertex $v \in V $with $f (v) = 0$ has a neighbor $u$ with $f (u) = 2$. The weight of a Roman dominating function $f$ is the…

Let $G$ be a simple graph with $2n$ vertices and a perfect matching. We denote by $f(G)$ and $F(G)$ the minimum and maximum forcing number of $G$, respectively. Hetyei obtained that the maximum number of edges of graphs $G$ with a unique…

An automorphism on a graph $G$ is a bijective mapping on the vertex set $V(G)$, which preserves the relation of adjacency between any two vertices of $G$. An automorphism $g$ fixes a vertex $v$ if $g$ maps $v$ onto itself. The stabilizer of…

For a function $f : V(G ) \rightarrow \{0, 1, 2\}$ we denote by $V_i$ the set of vertices to which the value $i$ is assigned by $f$, i.e. $V_i = \{ x \in V (G ) : f(x ) = i \}$. If a function $f: V(G) \rightarrow \{0,1,2\}$ satisfying the…
