We study the Cage Problem for regular and biregular planar graphs. A $(k,g)$-graph is a $k$-regular graph with girth $g$. A $(k,g)$-cage is a $(k,g)$-graph of minimum order. It is not difficult to conclude that the regular planar cages are…
A $(k,g,\underline{g+1})$-graph is a $k$-regular graph of girth $g$ which does not contain cycles of length $g+1$. Such graphs are known to exist for all parameter pairs $k \geq 3, g \geq 3 $, and we focus on determining the orders…
In this paper the concept of circular $r$-flows in a mono-directed signed graph $(G, \sigma)$ is introduced. That is a pair $(D, f)$, where $D$ is an orientation on $G$ and $f: E(G)\to (-r,r)$ satisfies that $|f(e)|\in [1, r-1]$ for each…
There is a rich history of studying the existence of cycles in planar graphs. The famous Tutte theorem on the Hamilton cycle states that every 4-connected planar graph contains a Hamilton cycle. Later on, Thomassen (1983), Thomas and Yu…
We show that for any natural number $s$, there is a constant $\gamma$ and a subgraph-closed class having, for any natural $n$, at most $\gamma^n$ graphs on $n$ vertices up to isomorphism, but no adjacency labeling scheme with labels of size…
We present a new model for hybrid planarity that relaxes existing hybrid representations. A graph $G = (V,E)$ is $(k,p)$-planar if $V$ can be partitioned into clusters of size at most $k$ such that $G$ admits a drawing where: (i) each…
A graph is said to be edge-transitive if its automorphism group acts transitively on its edges. It is known that edge-transitive graphs are either vertex-transitive or bipartite. In this paper we present a complete classification of all…
We study the following question, which has been considered since the 90's: Does every $st$-planar graph admit a planar straight-line dominance drawing? We show concrete evidence for the difficulty of this question, by proving that, unlike…
An $r$-graph is an $r$-regular graph where every odd set of vertices is connected by at least $r$ edges to the rest of the graph. Seymour conjectured that any $r$-graph is $r+1$-edge-colorable, and also that any $r$-graph contains $2r$…
An $(\{r,m\};g)$-graph is a (simple, undirected) graph of girth $g\geq3$ with vertices of degrees $r$ and $m$ where $2 \leq r < m$ . Given $r,m,g$, we seek the $(\{r,m\};g)$-graphs of minimum order, called $(\{r,m\};g)$-cages or bi-regular…
We exactly settle the complexity of graph realization, graph rigidity, and graph global rigidity as applied to three types of graphs: "globally noncrossing" graphs, which avoid crossings in all of their configurations; matchstick graphs,…
Menger's theorem is an important building block of numerous results in the study of graph structure. We consider a variant in terms of coarse geometry. We say that a set of graphs has the weak coarse Menger property if there exist functions…
There has been recent growing interest in graph theoretical properties known as r- and (r,s)-robustness. These properties serve as sufficient conditions guaranteeing the success of certain consensus algorithms in networks with misbehaving…
Circulant graphs are a widely studied family of graphs whose members possess varying amounts of symmetry. Although considerable progress has been made in finding the automorphism groups of circulant graphs under certain restrictions, a…
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of fixed graphs and let $d$ be large enough. For every $d$-regular graph $G$, we study the existence of a spanning $\mathcal{F}$-free subgraph of $G$ with large minimum degree. This problem is well-understood…
The chordal ring (CR) graphs are a well-known family of graphs used to model some interconnection networks for computer systems in which all nodes are in a cycle. Generalizing the CR graphs, in this paper, we introduce the families of…
Two methods, structural (constructive) and multiplier (analytical), of exact enumeration of undirected and directed circulant graphs of orders 27 and 125 are elaborated and represented in detail here together with intermediate and final…
A graph $G$ is $(c,t)$-sparse if for every pair of vertex subsets $A,B\subset V(G)$ with $|A|,|B|\geq t$, $e(A,B)\leq (1-c)|A||B|$. In this paper we prove that for every $c>0$ and integer $\ell$, there exists $C>1$ such that if an…
A graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with $k$ edges is $t$-edge-balanced if every graph on $n$ vertices with $t$ edges is contained in exactly the same number of subgraphs of $K_n$ isomorphic to $G$. Despite the existence of infinite families of…
A strict confluent (SC) graph drawing is a drawing of a graph with vertices as points in the plane, where vertex adjacencies are represented not by individual curves but rather by unique smooth paths through a planar system of junctions and…
