In the Dominated Cluster Deletion problem, we are given an undirected graph $G$ and integers $k$ and $d$ and the question is to decide whether there exists a set of at most $k$ vertices whose removal results in a graph in which each…
In this article we consider a problem related to two famous combinatorial topics. One of them concerns the chromatic number of the space. The other deals with graphs having big girth (the length of the shortest cycle) and large chromatic…
One of the major results of [N. Robertson and P. D. Seymour. Graph minors. XIII. The disjoint paths problem. J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 63(1):65--110, 1995], also known as the weak structure theorem, revealed the local structure of graphs…
The eccentricity (anti-adjacency) matrix $\varepsilon(G)$ of a graph $G$ is obtained from the distance matrix by retaining the eccentricities in each row and each column. This matrix is first defined in 2018 by Wang et al. \cite{1}. In this…
Distance ideals generalize the Smith normal form of the distance matrix of a graph. The family of graphs with 2 trivial distance ideals contains the family of graphs whose distance matrix has at most 2 invariant factors equal to 1. Here we…
We introduce new distance measures for comparing straight-line embedded graphs based on the Fr\'echet distance and the weak Fr\'echet distance. These graph distances are defined using continuous mappings and thus take the combinatorial…
A connected graph is called a multi-block graph if each of its blocks is a complete multi-partite graph. Building on the work of \cite{Bp3,Hou3}, we compute the determinant and inverse of the distance matrix for a class of multi-block…
Let \( D \) be a strongly connected digraph. The average distance of a vertex \( v \) in \( D \) is defined as the arithmetic mean of the distances from \( v \) to all other vertices in \( D \). The remoteness \( \rho(D) \) of \( D \) is…
Given a graph $G$, a subgraph $H$ is isometric if $d_H(u,v) = d_G(u,v)$ for every pair $u,v\in V(H)$, where $d$ is the distance function. A graph $G$ is distance preserving (dp) if it has an isometric subgraph of every possible order. A…
The degree sequence of a graph is a numerical method to characterize the properties of graphs. Generalized forms of degree sequences exist for complete graphs and complete graphs. Nikolopolus et al. characterized the number of spanning…
Graph embeddings have emerged as a powerful tool for representing complex network structures in a low-dimensional space, enabling the use of efficient methods that employ the metric structure in the embedding space as a proxy for the…
A k-ranking of a graph G is a labeling of the vertices of G with values from {1,...,k} such that any path joining two vertices with the same label contains a vertex having a higher label. The tree-depth of G is the smallest value of k for…
The minimum distance graph of a code has the codewords as vertices and edges exactly when the Hamming distance between two codewords equals the minimum distance of the code. A constructive proof for reconstructibility of an extended perfect…
For a family $\mathcal{F}$ of graphs, let $ex(n,\mathcal{F})$ denote the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph which contains none of the members of $\mathcal{F}$ as a subgraph. A longstanding problem in extremal graph theory asks…
A distance graph is an undirected graph on the integers where two integers are adjacent if their difference is in a prescribed distance set. The independence ratio of a distance graph $G$ is the maximum density of an independent set in $G$.…
Lipman et al. [ACM Transactions on Graphics 29 (3) (2010), 1--11] introduced the concept of biharmonic distance to measure the distances between pairs of points on a 3D surface. Biharmonic distance has some advantages over resistance…
Distance-hereditary graphs are known to be the graphs that are totally decomposable for the split decomposition. We characterise distance-hereditary graphs whose complement is also distance-hereditary by their split decomposition and by…
We show that an arbitrary infinite graph $G$ can be compactified by its ends plus its critical vertex sets, where a finite set $X$ of vertices of an infinite graph is critical if its deletion leaves some infinitely many components each with…
The notion of resolving sets in a graph was introduced by Slater (1975) and Harary and Melter (1976) as a way of uniquely identifying every vertex in a graph. A set of vertices in a graph is a resolving set if for any pair of vertices x and…
A periodic temporal graph, in its simplest form, is a graph in which every edge appears exactly once in the first $\Delta$ time steps, and then it reappears recurrently every $\Delta$ time steps, where $\Delta$ is a given period length.…
