Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and let $H:V(G)\rightarrow 2^N$ be a set function associating with $G$. An $H$-factor of graph $G$ is a spanning subgraphs $F$ such that $$d_F(v)\in H(v){4em}\hbox{for every}v\in V(G).$$ Let…

For $0 \leq \alpha < 1$, the $\alpha$-spectral radius of a graph $G$ is defined as the largest eigenvalue of $A_{\alpha}(G)=\alpha D(G)+(1-\alpha)A(G)$, where $D(G)$ and $A(G)$ are the diagonal matrix of degrees and adjacency matrix of $G$,…

We resolve a problem posed by Guiduli (1996) on the spectral radius of graphs satisfying the Hereditarily Bounded Property $P_{t,r}$, which requires that every subgraph $H$ with $|V(H)| \geq t$ satisfies $|E(H)| \leq t|V(H)| + r$. For an…

A graph $G$ of order $n$ is said to be $k$-factor-critical for integers $1\leq k< n$, if the removal of any $k$ vertices results in a graph with a perfect matching. A $k$-factor-critical graph is minimal if for every edge, the deletion of…

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…

Let $\mathcal{G}=\{G_1,\ldots, G_{\frac{kn}{2}}\}$ be a set of graphs on the same vertex set $V=\{1,\dots,n\}$ where $k\cdot n$ is even. We say $\mathcal{G}$ admits a rainbow $k$-factor if there exists a $k$-regular graph $F$ on the vertex…

In this paper, we address problems related to parameters concerning edge mappings of graphs. The quantity $h(n,G)$ is defined to be the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph $H$ such that there exists a mapping $f: E(H)\rightarrow…

We study the $F$-decomposition threshold $\delta_F$ for a given graph $F$. Here an $F$-decomposition of a graph $G$ is a collection of edge-disjoint copies of $F$ in $G$ which together cover every edge of $G$. (Such an $F$-decomposition can…

For any graph $G$ of order $p$, a bijection $f: V(G)\to [1,p]$ is called a numbering of the graph $G$ of order $p$. The strength $str_f(G)$ of a numbering $f: V(G)\to [1,p]$ of $G$ is defined by $str_f(G) = \max\{f(u)+f(v)\; |\; uv\in…

For a set $\mathcal{H}$ of connected graphs, a spanning subgraph $H$ of $G$ is called an $\mathcal{H}$-factor of $G$ if each component of $H$ is isomorphic to an element of $\mathcal{H}$. A graph $G$ is called an $\mathcal{H}$-factor…

For $F\subseteq V(G)$, if $G-F$ is a disconnected graph with at least $r$ components and each vertex $v\in V(G)\backslash F$ has at least $g$ neighbors, then $F$ is called a $g$-good $r$-component cut of $G$. The $g$-good $r$-component…

Let $G=(V(G) ,E(G))$ be a digraph without loops and multiarcs, where $V(G)=\{v_1,v_2,\ldots,v_n\}$ and $E(G)$ are the vertex set and the arc set of $G$, respectively. Let $d_i^{+}$ be the outdegree of the vertex $v_i$. Let $A(G)$ be the…

We present results referring to the Hadwiger-Nelson problem which asks for the minimum number of colours needed to colour the plane with no two points at distance $1$ having the same colour. Exoo considered a more general problem concerning…

For given graph $H$ and graphical property $P$, the conditional chromatic number $\chi(H,P)$ of $H$, is the smallest number $k$, so that $V(H)$ can be decomposed into sets $V_1,V_2,\ldots, V_k$, in which $H[V_i]$ satisfies the property $P$,…

A {\em $(d,h)$-decomposition} of a graph $G$ is an order pair $(D,H)$ such that $H$ is a subgraph of $G$ where $H$ has the maximum degree at most $h$ and $D$ is an acyclic orientation of $G-E(H)$ of maximum out-degree at most $d$. A graph…

Let $G$ be a graph, and let $H:V(G)\longrightarrow\{\{1\},\{0,2\}\}$ be a set-valued function. Hence, $H(v)$ equals $\{1\}$ or $\{0,2\}$ for any $v\in V(G)$. We let $$ H^{-1}(1)=\{v: v\in V(G) \ \mbox{and} \ H(v)=1\}. $$ An $H$-factor of…

The domatic number of a graph $G$ is the maximum number of pairwise disjoint dominating sets of $G$. We are interested in the LP-relaxation of this parameter, which is called the fractional domatic number of $G$. We study its extremal value…

Let $G$ be a graph, and $H\colon V(G)\to 2^\mathbb{N}$ a set function associated with $G$. A spanning subgraph $F$ of $G$ is called an $H$-factor if the degree of any vertex $v$ in $F$ belongs to the set $H(v)$. This paper contains two…

For $d \ge 1$, $s \ge 0$ a $(d, d+s)$-{\em graph} is a graph whose degrees all lie in the interval $\{d, d+1, \ldots, d + s\}$. For $r \ge 1$, $a \ge 0$, an $(r, r+a)$-{\em factor} of a graph $G$ is a spanning $(r, r+a)$-subgraph of $G$. An…
