We prove that a complete bipartite graph can be decomposed into cycles of arbitrary specified lengths provided that the obvious necessary conditions are satisfied, the length of each cycle is at most the size of the smallest part, and the…
It is known that complete multipartite graphs are determined by their distance spectrum but not by their adjacency spectrum. The Seidel spectrum of a graph $G$ on more than one vertex does not determine the graph, since any graph obtained…
This paper proposes an efficient method to construct the bipartite graph with as many edges as possible while without introducing the shortest cycles of length equal to 4. The binary matrix associated with the bipartite graph described…
An orientation of a graph $G$ is proper if any two adjacent vertices have different indegrees. The proper orientation number $\overrightarrow{\chi}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum of the maximum indegree, taken over all proper…
It was recently shown \cite{STV} that satisfiability is polynomially solvable when the incidence graph is an interval bipartite graph (an interval graph turned into a bipartite graph by omitting all edges within each partite set). Here we…
Finding dense bipartite subgraphs and detecting the relations among them is an important problem for affiliation networks that arise in a range of domains, such as social network analysis, word-document clustering, the science of science,…
We consider the line graph of a pure simplicial complex. We prove that, as in the case of line graphs of simple graphs, one can compute the second graded Betti number of the facet ideal of a pure simplicial complex in terms of the…
In this paper, we characterize all connected graphs with exactly three distinct normalized Laplacian eigenvalues of which one is equal to $1$, determine all connected bipartite graphs with at least one vertex of degree $1$ having exactly…
We say that a bipartite graph $G(A, B)$ with fixed parts $A$, $B$ is proximinal if there is a semimetric space $(X, d)$ such that $A$ and $B$ are disjoint proximinal subsets of $X$ and all edges $\{a, b\}$ satisfy the equality $d(a, b) =…
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…
The incidence matrix of a graph is totally unimodular if and only if the graph is bipartite, i.e., it contains no odd cycles. We extend the characterization of total unimodularity to hypergraphs whose hyperedges of size at least four are…
The concept of graph powers has been extensively studied in graph theory. Analogous to graph powers, Chandran et al. [3] introduced the notion of bipartite powers for bipartite graphs. In this paper, we show that the class of interval…
In this paper we investigate families of connected graphs which do not contain an odd cycle in their complement. Specifically, we consider graphs formed by two complete graphs connected in a particular way. We determine which of these…
An $(a,b)$-biregular bipartite graph is a bipartite graph with bipartition $(X, Y)$ such that each vertex in $X$ has degree $a$ and each vertex in $Y$ has degree $b$. By the bipartite expander mixing lemma, biregular bipartite graphs have…
A connected graph $\G$ is said to be {\it distance-balanced} whenever for any pair of adjacent vertices $u,v$ of $\G$ the number of vertices closer to $u$ than to $v$ is equal to the number of vertices closer to $v$ than to $u$. In…
In a recent work (ECCC, TR18-171, 2018), we introduced models of testing graph properties in which, in addition to answers to the usual graph-queries, the tester obtains {\em random vertices drawn according to an arbitrary distribution…
A graph is almost bipartite if it contains exactly one odd cycle, and it is Konig-Egervary if the sum of the independence number and the matching number equals the order of the graph. We introduce the class of Bipartite-Almost Bipartite…
In this paper, we study the Hamiltonicity of graphs with large minimum degree. Firstly, we present some conditions for a simple graph to be Hamilton-connected and traceable from every vertex in terms of the spectral radius of the graph or…
It is shown that a hamiltonian $n/2$-regular bipartite graph $G$ of order $2n>8$ contains a cycle of length $2n-2$. Moreover, if such a cycle can be chosen to omit a pair of adjacent vertices, then $G$ is bipancyclic.
A graph $G$ is called well-covered if all maximal independent sets of vertices have the same cardinality. A simplicial complex $\Delta$ is called pure if all of its facets have the same cardinality. Let $\mathcal G$ be the class of graphs…
