In machine learning, graph embedding algorithms seek low-dimensional representations of the input network data, thereby allowing for downstream tasks on compressed encodings. Recently, within the framework of network renormalization,…

A graph $G$ has maximal local edge-connectivity $k$ if the maximum number of edge-disjoint paths between every pair of distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ is at most $k$. We prove Brooks-type theorems for $k$-connected graphs with maximal local…

We consider the problem of partitioning a graph into a non-fixed number of non-overlapping subgraphs of maximum density. The density of a partition is the sum of the densities of the subgraphs, where the density of a subgraph is its average…

Two independent sets of a graph are adjacent if they differ on exactly one vertex (i.e. we can transform one into the other by adding or deleting a vertex). Let $k$ be an integer. We consider the reconfiguration graph $TAR_k(G)$ on the set…

We define an algorithm k which takes a connected graph G on a totally ordered vertex set and returns an increasing tree R (which is not necessarily a subtree of G). We characterize the set of graphs G such that k(G)=R. Because this set has…

We investigate the problem of reconstructing a set $P\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ of distinct points, where the only information available about $P$ consists of the distances between some of the pairs of points. More precisely, we examine which…

A connected set in a graph is a subset of vertices whose induced subgraph is connected. Although counting the number of connected sets in a graph is generally a \#P-complete problem, it remains an active area of research. In 2020, Vince…

We study the NP-hard graph problem Collapsed k-Core where, given an undirected graph G and integers b, x, and k, we are asked to remove b vertices such that the k-core of remaining graph, that is, the (uniquely determined) largest induced…

The reconfiguration graph of the $k$-colorings, denoted $R_k(G)$, is the graph whose vertices are the $k$-colorings of $G$ and two colorings are adjacent in $R_k(G)$ if they differ in color on exactly one vertex. A graph $G$ is said to be…

For any positive integer $k$, the reconfiguration graph for all $k$-colorings of a graph $G$, denoted by $\mathcal{R}_k(G)$, is the graph where vertices represent the $k$-colorings of $G$, and two $k$-colorings are joined by an edge if they…

The Reconstruction Conjecture of Kelly and Ulam states that any graph $G$ with $n\geq 3$ vertices can be reconstructed from the multiset $\mathcal{D}(G)$ of unlabelled subgraphs $G-v$ for all $v\in V(G)$. We refer to $\mathcal{D}(G)$ as the…

The $k$-deck of a graph is its multiset of induced subgraphs on $k$ vertices. We prove that $n$-vertex graphs with maximum degree $2$ have the same $k$-decks if each cycle has at least $k+1$ vertices, each path component has at least $k-1$…

Any graph which is not vertex transitive has a proper induced subgraph which is unique due to its structure or the way of its connection to the rest of the graph. We have called such subgraph as an anchor. Using an anchor which, in fact, is…
