The dominating graph of a graph $H$ has as its vertices all dominating sets of $H$, with an edge between two dominating sets if one can be obtained from the other by the addition or deletion of a single vertex of $H$. In this paper we prove…

A graph G on n vertices is Hamiltonian if it contains a cycle of length n and pancyclic if it contains cycles of length $\ell$ for all $3 \le \ell \le n$. Write $\alpha(G)$ for the independence number of $G$, i.e. the size of the largest…

The thickness of a graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n$ vertices is the minimum number of planar subgraphs of $G$ whose union is $G$. A polyline drawing of $G$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ is a drawing $\Gamma$ of $G$, where each vertex is mapped to a point and…

We prove Jones' famous conjecture for Halin graphs and a somewhat more general class of graphs, too. A based planar graph is a planar one that has a face adjacent to every other face. We confirm Jones' conjecture for based planar graphs.…

A spanning tree with no vertices of degree 2 is called a Homeomorphically irreducible spanning tree\,(HIST). Based on a HIST embedded in the plane, a Halin graph is formed by connecting the leaves of the tree into a cycle following the…

A $k$-graph system $\textbf{H}=\{H_i\}_{i\in[m]}$ is a family of not necessarily distinct $k$-graphs on the same $n$-vertex set $V$ and a $k$-graph $H$ on $V$ is said to be $\textbf{H}$-transversal provided that there exists an injection…

It was recently proved that every planar graph is a subgraph of the strong product of a path and a graph with bounded treewidth. This paper surveys generalisations of this result for graphs on surfaces, minor-closed classes, various…

We prove that thick groups (and more generally thick graphs) have trivial Floyd boundary. This shows a wide class of finitely generated groups that are non-relatively hyperbolic have trivial Floyd boundary. In addition to giving new…

The cyclic subgroup graph ${\Gamma(G)}$ of a group $G$ is the simple undirected graph with cyclic subgroups as a vertex set and two distinct vertices $H_1$ and $H_2$ are adjacent if and only if $H_1 \leq H_2$ and there does not exist any…

For a collection $\mathbf{G}=\{G_1,\dots, G_s\}$ of not necessarily distinct graphs on the same vertex set $V$, a graph $H$ with vertices in $V$ is a $\mathbf{G}$-transversal if there exists a bijection $\phi:E(H)\rightarrow [s]$ such that…

A well-known result due to Chvat\'al and Erd\H{o}s (1972) asserts that, if a graph $G$ satisfies $\kappa(G) \ge \alpha(G)$, where $\kappa(G)$ is the vertex-connectivity of $G$, then $G$ has a Hamilton cycle. We prove a similar result…

We consider the problem of how much edge connectivity is necessary to force a graph G to contain a fixed graph H as an immersion. We show that if the maximum degree in H is D, then all the examples of D-edge connected graphs which do not…

A cyclic subgroup graph of a group $G$ is a graph whose vertices are cyclic subgroups of $G$ and two distinct vertices $H_1$ and $H_2$ are adjacent if $H_1\leq H_2$, and there is no subgroup $K$ such that $H_1<K<H_2$. M.T\u{a}rn\u{a}uceanu…

A supergrid graph is a finite induced subgraph of the infinite graph associated with the two-dimensional supergrid. The supergrid graphs contain grid graphs and triangular grid graphs as subgraphs. The Hamiltonian cycle problem for grid and…

We consider the worst-case query complexity of some variants of certain \cl{PPAD}-complete search problems. Suppose we are given a graph $G$ and a vertex $s \in V(G)$. We denote the directed graph obtained from $G$ by directing all edges in…

Chen, Faudree, Gould, Jacobson, and Lesniak determined the minimum degree threshold for which a balanced $k$-partite graph has a Hamiltonian cycle. We give an asymptotically tight minimum degree condition for Hamiltonian cycles in arbitrary…

A Hamiltonian embedding is an embedding of a graph $G$ such that the boundary of each face is a Hamiltonian cycle of $G$. It is shown that the hypercube graph $Q_n$ admits such an embedding on an orientable surface when $n$ is a power of 2.…

Given a collection $\mathcal{G}=(G_1,\dots, G_h)$ of graphs on the same vertex set $V$ of size $n$, an $h$-edge graph $H$ on the vertex set $V$ is a $\mathcal{G}$-transversal if there exists a bijection $\lambda : E(H) \rightarrow [h]$ such…

An $n$-vertex graph is Hamiltonian if it contains a cycle that covers all of its vertices and it is pancyclic if it contains cycles of all lengths from $3$ up to $n$. A celebrated meta-conjecture of Bondy states that every non-trivial…

Rigidity, arising in discrete geometry, is the property of a structure that does not flex. Laman provides a combinatorial characterization of rigid graphs in the Euclidean plane, and thus rigid graphs in the Euclidean plane have…
