A 4-regular planar graph $G$ is said to be circle representable if there exists a collection of circles drawn on the plane such that the touching and crossing points correspond to the vertices of $G$, and the circular arcs between those…

The concept of graph compositions is related to several number theoretic concepts, including partitions of positive integers and the cardinality of the power set of finite sets. This paper examines graph compositions where the total number…

Tan et al. conjectured that connected co-edge-regular graphs with four distinct eigenvalues and fixed smallest eigenvalue, when having sufficiently large valency, belong to two different families of graphs. In this paper we construct two…

We introduce and study so-called self-indexed graphs. These are (oriented) finite graphs endowed with a map from the set of edges to the set of vertices. Such graphs naturally arise from classical knot and link diagrams. In fact, the graphs…

We prove that there exists an infinite family of 4-regular 4-connected Hamiltonian graphs with a bounded number of Hamiltonian cycles. We do not know if there exists such a family of 5-regular 5-connected Hamiltonian graphs.

A graph is split if there is a partition of its vertex set into a clique and an independent set. The present paper is devoted to the splitness of some graphs related to finite simple groups, namely, prime graphs and solvable graphs, and…

Beck's conjecture on coloring of graphs associated to various algebraic objects has generated considerable interest in the community of discrete mathematics and combinatorics since its inception in the year 1988. The version of this…

An injective colouring of a graph is a colouring in which every two vertices sharing a common neighbour receive a different colour. Chen, Hahn, Raspaud and Wang conjectured that every planar graph of maximum degree $\Delta \ge 3$ admits an…

The simple connected graphs may be classified by their cycle composition (number and lengths of cycles). This work derives the counting series of the simple connected graphs that have cycles of unrestricted number and length, but no…

We conjecture that the distribution of the edge-disjoint union of two random regular graphs on the same vertex set is asymptotically equivalent to a random regular graph of the combined degree, provided it grows as the number of vertices…

Berge Conjecture states that every bridgeless cubic graph has 5 perfect matchings such that each edge is contained in at least one of them. In this paper, we show that Berge Conjecture holds for two classes of cubic graphs, cubic graphs…

A hole in a graph is an induced subgraph which is a cycle of length at least four. We prove that for every positive integer k, every triangle-free graph with sufficiently large chromatic number contains holes of k consecutive lengths.

In this paper, we introduce the concept of curling subsequence of simple, finite and connected graphs. A curling subsequence is a maximal subsequence $C$ of the degree sequence of a simple connected graph $G$ for which the curling number…

By the Grunbaum-Aksenov Theorem (extending Grotzsch's Theorem) every planar graph with at most three triangles is 3-colorable. However, there are infinitely many planar 4-critical graphs with exactly four triangles. We describe all such…

We enumerate factorisations of the complete graph into spanning regular graphs in several cases, including when the degrees of all the factors except for one or two are small. The resulting asymptotic behaviour is seen to generalise the…

Deciding whether a planar graph (even of maximum degree $4$) is $3$-colorable is NP-complete. Determining subclasses of planar graphs being $3$-colorable has a long history, but since Gr\"{o}tzsch's result that triangle-free planar graphs…
