A good edge-labelling of a simple graph is a labelling of its edges with real numbers such that, for any ordered pair of vertices (u,v), there is at most one nondecreasing path from u to v. Say a graph is good if it admits a good…
Graphlets of order $k$ in a graph $G$ are connected subgraphs induced by $k$ nodes (called $k$-graphlets) or by $k$ edges (called edge $k$-graphlets). They are among the interesting subgraphs in network analysis to get insights on both the…
Computing the number of realizations of a minimally rigid graph is a notoriously difficult problem. Towards this goal, for graphs that are minimally rigid in the plane, we take advantage of a recently published algorithm, which is the…
We propose the following conjecture extending Dirac's theorem: if $G$ is a graph with $n\ge 3$ vertices and minimum degree $\delta(G)\ge n/2$, then in every orientation of $G$ there is a Hamilton cycle with at least $\delta(G)$ edges…
In this paper we focus on the problem of the degree sequence for the following random graph process. At any time-step $t$, one of the following three substeps is executed: with probability $\alpha_1$, a new vertex $x_t$ and $m$ edges…
We investigate the problem of drawing graphs in 2D and 3D such that their edges (or only their vertices) can be covered by few lines or planes. We insist on straight-line edges and crossing-free drawings. This problem has many connections…
We study two related problems: finding a set of k vertices and minimum number of edges (kmin) and finding a graph with at least m' edges and minimum number of vertices (mvms). Goldschmidt and Hochbaum \cite{GH97} show that the mvms problem…
The concept of $k$-planarity is extensively studied in the context of Beyond Planarity. A graph is $k$-planar if it admits a drawing in the plane in which each edge is crossed at most $k$ times. The local crossing number of a graph is the…
Galvin showed that for all fixed $\delta$ and sufficiently large $n$, the $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree $\delta$ that admits the most independent sets is the complete bipartite graph $K_{\delta,n-\delta}$. He conjectured that except…
A $\frac{1}{k}$-majority $l$-edge-colouring of a graph $G$ is a colouring of its edges with $l$ colours such that for every colour $i$ and each vertex $v$ of $G$, at most $\frac{1}{k}$'th of the edges incident with $v$ have colour $i$. We…
Let $G$ be a $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices. Frieze, Gould, Karo\'nski and Pfender began the study of the following random spanning subgraph model $H=H(G)$. Assign independently to each vertex $v$ of $G$ a uniform random number $x(v) \in…
We prove that every $k$-list-critical graph ($k \ge 7$) on $n \ge k+2$ vertices has at least $\frac12 \left(k-1 + \frac{k-3}{(k-c)(k-1) + k-3}\right)n$ edges where $c = (k-3)\left(\frac12 - \frac{1}{(k-1)(k-2)}\right)$. This improves the…
In this paper we raise a variant of a classic problem in extremal graph theory, which is motivated by a design of fractional repetition codes, a model in distributed storage systems. For any feasible positive integers $d\geq 3$, $n \geq 3$,…
Large graphs are sometimes studied through their degree sequences (power law or regular graphs). We study graphs that are uniformly chosen with a given degree sequence. Under mild conditions, it is shown that sequences of such graphs have…
The $(m,n)$-online Ramsey game is a combinatorial game between two players, Builder and Painter. Starting from an infinite set of isolated vertices, Builder draws an edge on each turn and Painter immediately paints it red or blue. Builder's…
In this paper we consider a simple model of random graph process with {\it hard} copying as follows: At each time step $t$, with probability $0<\alpha\leq 1$ a new vertex $v_t$ is added and $m$ edges incident with $v_t$ are added in the…
By now, the Maker-Breaker connectivity game on a complete graph $K_n$ or on a random graph $G\sim G_{n,p}$ is well studied. Recently, London and Pluh\'ar suggested a variant in which Maker always needs to choose her edges in such a way that…
Let $G = (V,E)$ be a graph, and for each $e \in E(G)$, let $L_e$ be a list of real numbers. Let $w:E(G) \to \cup_{e \in E(G)}L_e$ be an edge weighting function such that $w(e) \in L_e$ for each $e \in E(G)$, and let $c_w$ be the vertex…
We pursue the study of edge-irregulators of graphs, which were recently introduced in [Fioravantes et al. Parametrised Distance to Local Irregularity. IPEC, 2024]. That is, we are interested in the parameter Ie(G), which, for a given graph…
A 1-planar graph is a graph which has a drawing on the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. If a 1-planar graph is drawn in that way, the drawing is called a {\it 1-plane graph}. A graph is maximal 1-plane (or 1-planar) if no…
