Clique-width is a graph invariant that has been widely studied in combinatorics and computer science. However, computing the clique-width of a graph is an intricate problem, the exact clique-width is not known even for very small graphs. We…

For a $k$-uniform hypergraph $F$ we consider the parameter $\Theta(F)$, the minimum size of a clique cover of the of $F$. We derive bounds on $\Theta(F)$ for $F$ belonging to various classes of hypergraphs.

K-clique percolation is an overlapping community finding algorithm which extracts particular structures, comprised of overlapping cliques, from complex networks. While it is conceptually straightforward, and can be elegantly expressed using…

It is well-known that the graph isomorphism problem can be posed as an equivalent problem of determining whether an auxiliary graph structure contains a clique of specific order. However, the algorithms that have been developed so far for…

A simple graph on $n$ vertices may contain a lot of maximum cliques. But how many can it potentially contain? We will define prime and composite graphs, and we will show that if $n \ge 15$, then the grpahs with the maximum number of maximum…

Let $G$ be a 2-connected $n$-vertex graph and $N_s(G)$ be the total number of $s$-cliques in $G$. Let $k\ge 4$ and $s\ge 2$ be integers. In this paper, we show that if $G$ has an edge $e$ which is not on any cycle of length at least $k$,…

We define an approach to identify overlapping communities in multiplex networks, extending the popular clique percolation method for simple graphs. The extension requires to rethink the basic concepts on which the clique percolation…

We consider a variant of the clustering problem for a complete weighted graph. The aim is to partition the nodes into clusters maximizing the sum of the edge weights within the clusters. This problem is known as the clique partitioning…

In this article we present the idea of clique ceiling numbers of the vertices of a given graph that has a universal vertex. We follow up with a polynomial-time algorithm to compute an upper bound for the clique number of such a graph using…

We prove that the clique graph operator $k$ is divergent on a locally cyclic graph $G$ (i.e. $N_G(v)$ is a circle) with minimum degree $\delta(G)=6$ if and only if $G$ is $6$-regular. The clique graph $kG$ of a graph $G$ has the maximal…

We prove a local limit theorem the number of $r$-cliques in $G(n,p)$ for $p\in(0,1)$ and $r\ge 3$ fixed constants. Our bounds hold in both the $\ell^\infty$ and $\ell^1$ metric. The main work of the paper is an estimate for the…

We show that for an infinitely many natural numbers $k$ there are $k$-uniform hypergraphs which admit a `rescaling phenomenon' as described in [9]. More precisely, let $\mathcal{A}(k,I, n)$ denote the class of $k$-graphs on $n$ vertices in…

A complete graph is the graph in which every two vertices are adjacent. For a graph $G=(V,E)$, the complete width of $G$ is the minimum $k$ such that there exist $k$ independent sets $\mathtt{N}_i\subseteq V$, $1\le i\le k$, such that the…
