We introduce a new notation for representing labeled regular bipartite graphs of arbitrary degree. Several enumeration problems for labeled and unlabeled regular bipartite graphs have been introduced. A general algorithm for enumerating all…

A path decomposition of a graph G is a collection of edge-disjoint paths of G that covers the edge set of G. Gallai (1968) conjectured that every connected graph on n vertices admits a path decomposition of cardinality at most (n+1)/2.…

We introduce the concept of link-irregular labelings for graphs, extending the notion of link-irregular graphs through edge labeling with positive integers. A labeling is link-irregular if every vertex has a uniquely labeled subgraph…

A coloring of vertices of a graph is called perfect if, for every vertex, the collection of colors of its neighbors depends only on its own color. The correspondent color partition of vertices is called equitable. We note that a number of…

A perfect $K_t$-matching in a graph $G$ is a spanning subgraph consisting of vertex disjoint copies of $K_t$. A classic theorem of Hajnal and Szemer\'edi states that if $G$ is a graph of order $n$ with minimum degree $\delta(G) \ge…

A Not-All-Equal (NAE) decomposition of a graph $G$ is a decomposition of the vertices of $G$ into two parts such that each vertex in $G$ has at least one neighbor in each part. Also, a 1-in-Degree decomposition of a graph $G$ is a…

Balogh, Bar\'at, Gerbner, Gy\'arf\'as, and S\'ark\"ozy proposed the following conjecture. Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices with minimum degree at least $3n/4$. Then for every $2$-edge-colouring of $G$, the vertex set $V(G)$ may be…

This paper concerns fractional $K_s$-decompositions of multipartite graphs. For integers $r\ge s\ge 3$, we consider balanced $r$-partite graphs $G$ on $rn$ vertices. We establish necessary conditions for $G$ to admit a fractional…

A graph $G$ of order $2n$ is called degree-equipartite if for every $n$-element set $A\subseteq V(G)$, the degree sequences of the induced subgraphs $G[A]$ and $G[V(G)\setminus A]$ are the same. In this paper, we characterize all…

We prove a general lemma about partitioning the vertex set of a graph into subgraphs of bounded degree. This lemma extends a sequence of results of Lov\'asz, Catlin, Kostochka and Rabern.

The basic goal of survivable network design is to construct low-cost networks which preserve a sufficient level of connectivity despite the failure or removal of a few nodes or edges. One of the most basic problems in this area is the…

In this paper, we show that every $2m$-partition-connected graph $G$ has a bipartite $m$-partition-connected factor $H$ such that for each vertex $v$, $d_H(v)\le \lceil \frac{3}{4}d_G(v)\rceil$. A graph $H$ is said to be…

A vertex $v$ of a 2-connected cubic graph $G$ is $\lambda$-matchable if $G$ has a spanning subgraph in which $v$ has degree three whereas every other vertex has degree one, and we let $\lambda(G)$ denote the number of such vertices.…

A dissociation set in a graph is a set of vertices inducing a subgraph of maximum degree at most $1$. Computing the dissociation number ${\rm diss}(G)$ of a given graph $G$, defined as the order of a maximum dissociation set in $G$, is…

For distinct vertices $u,v$ in a graph $G$, let $\kappa_G(u,v)$ denote the maximum number of internally disjoint $u$-$v$ paths in $G$. Then, $\kappa_G(u,v) \leq \min\{ \mbox{deg}_G(u), \mbox{deg}_G(v) \}$. If equality is attained for every…

A strongly separating path system in a graph $G$ is a collection $\mathcal{P}$ of paths in $G$ such that, for every two edges $e$ and $f$ of $G$, there is a paths in $\mathcal{P}$ with $e$ and not $f$, and vice-versa. The minimum number of…

For a subgraph $G$ of the blow-up of a graph $F$, we let $\delta^*(G)$ be the smallest minimum degree over all of the bipartite subgraphs of $G$ induced by pairs of parts that correspond to edges of $F$. In [Triangle-factors in a balanced…

Boettcher, Schacht and Taraz gave a condition on the minimum degree of a graph G on n vertices that ensures G contains every r-chromatic graph H on n vertices of bounded degree and of bandwidth o(n), thereby proving a conjecture of Bollobas…

Mader conjectured in 1979 that an average degree of at least $3k-1$ in a graph is sufficient for the existence of a $(k+1)$-connected subgraph. The following minimum degree analogue holds: Every graph with minimum degree at least $3k-1$…

Let $G$ be an embedded graph and $A$ an edge subset of $G$. The partial dual of $G$ with respect to $A$, denoted by $G^A$, can be viewed as the geometric dual $G^*$ of $G$ over $A$. If $A=E(G)$, then $G^A=G^*$. Denote by $\gamma(G^A)$ the…
