Which graphs admit an integer value harmonic function which is injective and surjective onto $\Z$? Such a function, which we call harmonic labeling, is constructed when the graph is the $\Z^2$ square grid. It is shown that for any finite…
In this article we introduce the notion of weak harmonic labeling of a graph, a generalization of the concept of harmonic labeling defined recently by Benjamini et al. that allows extension to finite graphs and graphs with leaves. We…
This work introduces the concept of \emph{upper-critical graphs}, in a complementary way of the conventional (lower)critical graphs: an element $x$ of a graph $G$ is called \emph{critical} if $\chi(G-x)<\chi(G)$. It is said that $G$ is a…
A subgraph $H$ of a graph $G$ is isometric if the distances between vertices in $H$ coincide with the distances between the corresponding vertices in $G$. We show that for any integer $n\ge 1$, there is a graph on $3^{n+O(\log^2 n)}$…
For each positive integer $n$, the Fibonacci-sum graph $G_n$ on vertices $1,2,\ldots,n$ is defined by two vertices forming an edge if and only if they sum to a Fibonacci number. It is known that each $G_n$ is bipartite, and all Hamiltonian…
Let $\mathbb{N}_0$ denote the set of all non-negative integers and $\mathcal{P}(\mathbb{N}_0)$ be its power set. An integer additive set-indexer (IASI) of a graph $G$ is an injective function $f:V(G)\to \mathcal{P}(\mathbb{N}_0)$ such that…
Let $c$ be a proper edge colouring of a graph $G=(V,E)$ with integers $1,2,\ldots,k$. Then $k\geq \Delta(G)$, while by Vizing's theorem, no more than $k=\Delta(G)+1$ is necessary for constructing such $c$. On the course of investigating…
We consider unitary graphs attached to Z_d^n using an analogue of the Euclidean distance. These graphs are shown to be integral when n is odd or the dimension d is even.
For any graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and for any {\em symmetric} subgraph $J$ of $K_{n,n}$, we construct an infinite sequence of graphs based on the pair $(G,J)$. The First graph in the sequence is $G$, then at each stage replacing every…
Given a set D of nonnegative integers, we derive the asymptotic number of graphs with a givenvnumber of vertices, edges, and such that the degree of every vertex is in D. This generalizes existing results, such as the enumeration of graphs…
We show that sums over graphs such as appear in the theory of Feynman diagrams can be seen as integrals over discrete groupoids. From this point of view, basic combinatorial formulas of the theory of Feynman diagrams can be interpreted as…
Let $G = (V_G,E_G)$ be a simple connected graph. The eccentric distance sum of $G$ is defined as $\xi^d(G)=\sum_{v \in V_G}\,\varepsilon_G(v)D_G(v),$ where $\varepsilon_G(v)$ is the eccentricity of the vertex $v$ and $D_G(v)=\sum_{u \in…
With any (not necessarily proper) edge $k$-colouring $\gamma:E(G)\longrightarrow\{1,\dots,k\}$ of a graph $G$,one can associate a vertex colouring $\sigma\_{\gamma}$ given by $\sigma\_{\gamma}(v)=\sum\_{e\ni v}\gamma(e)$.A…
A mixed graph is obtained by orienting some edges of a simple graph. The positive inertia index of a mixed graph is defined as the number of positive eigenvalues of its Hermitian adjacency matrix, including multiplicities. This matrix was…
A graph is a mathematical object consisting of a set of vertices and a set of edges connecting vertices. Graphs can be drawn on paper in various ways, but until recently all published methods of drawing graphs have had undesirable…
Let $X$ be a non-empty ground set and $\mathcal{P}(X)$ be its power set. A set-labeling (or a set-valuation) of a graph $G$ is an injective set-valued function $f:V(G)\to \mathcal{P}(X)$ such that the induced function $f^\oplus:E(G) \to…
We investigate the \textit{group sum chromatic number} ($\gchi(G)$) of graphs, i.e. the smallest value $s$ such that taking any Abelian group $\gr$ of order $s$, there exists a function $f:E(G)\rightarrow \gr$ such that the sums of edge…
Gcd-graphs represent an interesting and historically important class of integral graphs. Since the pioneering work of Klotz and Sander, numerous incarnations of these graphs have been explored in the literature. In this article, we define…
The number of the positive, negative and zero eigenvalues in the spectrum of the (edge)-weighted graph $G$ are called positive inertia index, negative inertia index and nullity of the weighted graph $G$, and denoted by $i_+(G)$, $i_-(G)$,…
A graph labeling assigns values to the components of a graph (vertices, edges, etc.). In particular, distance magic labelings have been widely studied in undirected graphs. In such a labeling, the vertices are labeled with unique values…
