It is well known that a plane graph is Eulerian if and only if its geometric dual is bipartite. We extend this result to partial duals of plane graphs. We then characterize all bipartite partial duals of a plane graph in terms of oriented…
Considering regions in a map to be adjacent when they have nonempty intersection (as opposed to the traditional view requiring intersection in a linear segment) leads to the concept of a facially complete graph: a plane graph that becomes…
The detour between two points u and v (on edges or vertices) of an embedded planar graph whose edges are curves is the ratio between the shortest path in in the graph between u and v and their Euclidean distance. The maximum detour over all…
The dimension of a graph $G$ is the smallest $d$ for which its vertices can be embedded in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space in the sense that the distances between endpoints of edges equal $1$ (but there may be other unit distances).…
Twin-width is a width parameter introduced by Bonnet, Kim, Thomass\'e and Watrigant [FOCS'20, JACM'22], which has many structural and algorithmic applications. We prove that the twin-width of every graph embeddable in a surface of Euler…
An isogeny graph is a graph whose vertices are principally polarized abelian varieties and whose edges are isogenies between these varieties. In his thesis, Kohel described the structure of isogeny graphs for elliptic curves and showed that…
We prove asymptotically optimal bounds on the number of edges a graph $G$ must have in order that any $r$-colouring of $E(G)$ has a colour class which contains every $D$-degenerate graph on $n$ vertices with bounded maximum degree. We also…
We consider the problem of determining the inducibility (maximum possible asymptotic density of induced copies) of oriented graphs on four vertices. We provide exact values for more than half of the graphs, and very close lower and upper…
Let $D=(V,A)$ be a digraph. We define $\Delta_{\max}(D)$ as the maximum of $\{ \max(d^+(v),d^-(v)) \mid v \in V \}$ and $\Delta_{\min}(D)$ as the maximum of $\{ \min(d^+(v),d^-(v)) \mid v \in V \}$. It is known that the dichromatic number…
A graph $G$ is equimatchable if any matching in $G$ is a subset of a maximum-size matching. It is known that any $2$-connected equimatchable graph is either bipartite or factor-critical. We prove that for any vertex $v$ of a $2$-connected…
The inducibility of a graph $H$ measures the maximum number of induced copies of $H$ a large graph $G$ can have. Generalizing this notion, we study how many induced subgraphs of fixed order $k$ and size $\ell$ a large graph $G$ on $n$…
While the problem of determining whether an embedding of a graph $G$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ is {\it infinitesimally rigid} is well understood, specifying whether a given embedding of $G$ is {\it rigid} or not is still a hard task that usually…
We describe a construction for embeddings of complete graphs where the dual has a cutvertex and the genus is close to the minimum genus of the primal graph. When the number of vertices is congruent to 5 modulo 12, we further guarantee that…
Due to Veblen's Theorem, if a connected multigraph $X$ has even degrees at each vertex, then it is Eulerian and its edge set has a partition into cycles. In this paper, we show that an Eulerian multigraph has a unique partition into cycles…
A minimum feedback arc set of a directed graph $G$ is a smallest set of arcs whose removal makes $G$ acyclic. Its cardinality is denoted by $\beta(G)$. We show that an Eulerian digraph with $n$ vertices and $m$ arcs has $\beta(G) \ge…
A graph on $n \ge 3$ vertices drawn in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most four times has at most $6(n-2)$ edges -- this result proven by Ackerman is outstanding in the literature of beyond-planar graphs with regard to its…
We consider the 4-precoloring extension problem in \emph{planar near-Eulerian-triangulations}, i.e., plane graphs where all faces except possibly for the outer one have length three, all vertices not incident with the outer face have even…
Random 2-cell embeddings of a given graph $G$ are obtained by choosing a random local rotation around every vertex. We analyze the expected number of faces, $\mathbb{E}[F_G]$, of such an embedding which is equivalent to studying its average…
We consider straight line drawings of a planar graph $G$ with possible edge crossings. The \emph{untangling problem} is to eliminate all edge crossings by moving as few vertices as possible to new positions. Let $fix(G)$ denote the maximum…
Given a function $g=g(n)$ we let ${\mathcal E}^g$ be the class of all graphs $G$ such that if $G$ has order $n$ (that is, has $n$ vertices) then it is embeddable in some surface of Euler genus at most $g(n)$, and let ${\widetilde{\mathcal…
