A unit cube in $k$ dimensions ($k$-cube) is defined as the the Cartesian product $R_1\times R_2\times...\times R_k$ where $R_i$(for $1\leq i\leq k$) is a closed interval of the form $[a_i,a_i+1]$ on the real line. A graph $G$ on $n$ nodes…

The reduced expressions for a given element $w$ of a Coxeter group $(W, S)$ can be regarded as the vertices of a directed graph $\mathcal{R}(w)$; its arcs correspond to the braid moves. Specifically, an arc goes from a reduced expression…

A set of vertices $S$ resolves a graph if every vertex is uniquely determined by its vector of distances to the vertices in $S$. The metric dimension of a graph is the minimum cardinality of a resolving set of the graph. Fix a connected…

Gravier et al. investigated the identifying codes of Cartesian product of two graphs. In this paper we consider the identifying codes of lexicographic product G[H] of a connected graph G and an arbitrary graph H, and obtain the minimum…

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…

For a finite connected graph $\mathcal{E}$ with set of edges $E$, a finite $E$-generated group $G$ is constructed such that the set of relations $p=1$ satisfied by $G$ (with $p$ a word over $E\cup E^{-1}$) is closed under deletion of…

Recently, there has been a surge of interest in employing neural networks for graph generation, a fundamental statistical learning problem with critical applications like molecule design and community analysis. However, most approaches…

In this paper, we address problems related to parameters concerning edge mappings of graphs. Inspired by Ramsey's Theorem, the quantity $m(G, H)$ is defined to be the minimum number $n$ such that for every $f: E(K_n) \rightarrow E(K_n)$…

The family of graphs of reduced words of a certain subcollection of permutations in the union $\cup_{n\geq 4}\frak{S}_{n}$ of symmetic groups is investigated. The subcollection is characterised by the hook cycle type $(n-2,1,1)$ with…

For unweighted graphs, finding isometric embeddings is closely related to decompositions of $G$ into Cartesian products of smaller graphs. When $G$ is isomorphic to a Cartesian graph product, we call the factors of this product a…

It can be shown that each permutation group $G \sqsubseteq S_n$ can be embedded, in a well defined sense, in a connected graph with $O(n+|G|)$ vertices. Some groups, however, require much fewer vertices. For instance, $S_n$ itself can be…

In this paper we consider the following problems: how many different subsets of Sigma^n can occur as set of all length-n factors of a finite word? If a subset is representable, how long a word do we need to represent it? How many such…

The strong geodetic problem on a graph $G$ is to determine a smallest set of vertices such that by fixing one shortest path between each pair of its vertices, all vertices of $G$ are covered. To do this as efficiently as possible, strong…

A connected graph $G$ with a perfect matching is said to be $k$-extendable for integers $k$, $1 \leq k\leq \frac{|V(G)|}{2}-1$, if any matching in $G$ of size $k$ is contained in a perfect matching of $G$. A $k$-extendable graph is minimal…

We begin with a new analysis of formal words. Let w be a formal word in letters g_1,...,g_k. The word map associated with w maps the permutations s_1,...,s_k in S_n to the permutation obtained by replacing for each i, every occurrence of…

In this paper we give upper bounds on the number of minimal separators and potential maximal cliques of graphs w.r.t. two graph parameters, namely vertex cover ($\operatorname{vc}$) and modular width ($\operatorname{mw}$). We prove that for…

Regular word grammars are restricted context-free grammars that define all the recognizable languages of words. This paper generalizes regular grammars from words to certain classes of graphs, by defining regular grammars for unordered…

The metric representation of a vertex $u$ in a connected graph $G$ respect to an ordered vertex subset $W=\{\omega_1, \dots , \omega_n\}\subset V(G)$ is the vector of distances $r(u\vert W)=(d(u,\omega_1), \dots , d(u,\omega_n))$. A vertex…

Let $G = (V,E)$ be a graph on $n$ vertices and $f: V\rightarrow [1,n]$ a one to one map of $V$ onto the integers $1$ through $n$. Let $dilation(f) =$ max$\{ |f(v) - f(w)|: vw\in E \}$. Define the {\it bandwidth} $B(G)$ of $G$ to be the…

We study a geometric representation problem, where we are given a set $\cal R$ of axis-aligned rectangles with fixed dimensions and a graph with vertex set $\cal R$. The task is to place the rectangles without overlap such that two…
