Strict outerconfluent drawing is a style of graph drawing in which vertices are drawn on the boundary of a disk, adjacencies are indicated by the existence of smooth curves through a system of tracks within the disk, and no two adjacent…

Bidirected graphs are multigraphs where every edge has an independent direction at each end. In the paper, with an arbitrary bidirected graph we associate a non-negative integral quadratic form (called the incidence form of the graph), and…

In 1967, Katona and Szemer\'{e}di showed that no undirected graph with $n$ vertices and fewer than $\frac{n}{2}\log_2\frac{n}{2}$ edges admits an orientation of diameter two. In 1978, Chv\'atal and Thomassen revealed the complexity of…

For an integer $k\ge 2$, let $G$ be a graph with $m$ edges and without cycles of length $2k$. The pivotal Alon-Krivelevich-Sudakov Theorem on Max-Cuts states that $G$ has a bipartite subgraph with at least $m/2+\Omega(m^{(2k+1)/(2k+2)})$…

In this paper, we study oriented bipartite graphs. In particular, we introduce "bitransitive" graphs. Several characterizations of bitransitive bitournaments are obtained. We show that bitransitive bitounaments are equivalent to acyclic…

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph and $I(G)$ denote the corresponding edge ideal. For all $s \geq 1$, we obtain upper bounds for reg$(I(G)^s)$ for bipartite graphs. We then compare the properties of $G$ and $G'$, where $G'$ is the graph…

Unitary graphs are arc-transitive graphs with vertices the flags of Hermitian unitals and edges defined by certain elements of the underlying finite fields. They played a significant role in a recent classification of a class of…

This article investigates the properties of order-divisor graphs associated with finite groups. An order-divisor graph of a finite group is an undirected graph in which the set of vertices includes all elements of the group, and two…

Extending the work of Godsil and others, we investigate the notion of the inverse of a graph (specifically, of bipartite graphs with a unique perfect matching). We provide a concise necessary and sufficient condition for the invertibility…

A bisection in a graph is a cut in which the number of vertices in the two parts differ by at most 1. In this paper, we give lower bounds for the maximum weight of bisections of edge-weighted graphs with bounded maximum degree. Our results…

It is well-known that in every $r$-coloring of the edges of the complete bipartite graph $K_{m,n}$ there is a monochromatic connected component with at least ${m+n\over r}$ vertices. In this paper we study an extension of this problem by…

In the Matching Cut problem we ask whether a graph $G$ has a matching cut, that is, a matching which is also an edge cut of $G$. We consider the variants Perfect Matching Cut and Disconnected Perfect Matching where we ask whether there…

A graph on $2k$ vertices is path-pairable if for any pairing of the vertices the pairs can be joined by edge-disjoint paths. The so far known families of path-pairable graphs have diameter of length at most 3. In this paper we present an…

We investigate the joint distribution of the vertex degrees in three models of random bipartite graphs. Namely, we can choose each edge with a specified probability, choose a specified number of edges, or specify the vertex degrees in one…

Consider a graph with $n$ vertices where the shortest odd cycle is of length $>2k+1$. We revisit two known results about such graphs: (I) Such a graph is almost bipartite, in the sense that it can be made bipartite by removing from it…

A \emph{directional labeling} of an edge $\emph{uv}$ in a graph $G=(V,E)$ by an ordered pair $ab$ is a labeling of the edge $uv$ such that the label on $uv$ in the direction from $u$ to $v$ is $\ell(uv)=ab$, and $\ell(vu)=ba$. New…
