A set $\mathcal{G}$ of planar graphs on the same number $n$ of vertices is called simultaneously embeddable if there exists a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane such that every graph $G \in \mathcal{G}$ admits a (crossing-free)…

The saturation number of a graph $G$ is the cardinality of any smallest maximal matching of $G$, and it is denoted by $s(G)$. Fullerene graphs are cubic planar graphs with exactly twelve 5-faces; all the other faces are hexagons. They are…

Simultaneous Embedding with Fixed Edges (SEFE) is a problem where given $k$ planar graphs we ask whether they can be simultaneously embedded so that the embedding of each graph is planar and common edges are drawn the same. Problems of SEFE…

A greedy embedding of a graph $G = (V,E)$ into a metric space $(X,d)$ is a function $x : V(G) \to X$ such that in the embedding for every pair of non-adjacent vertices $x(s), x(t)$ there exists another vertex $x(u)$ adjacent to $x(s)$ which…

A graph $G$ is a non-separating planar graph if there is a drawing $D$ of $G$ on the plane such that (1) no two edges cross each other in $D$ and (2) for any cycle $C$ in $D$, any two vertices not in $C$ are on the same side of $C$ in $D$.…

A well-known theorem of Mantel states that every $n$-vertex graph with more than $\lfloor n^2/4\rfloor $ edges contains a triangle. An interesting problem in extremal graph theory studies the minimum number of edges contained in triangles…

A graph $G$ is $[a,b]$-covered if for each edge $e$ of $G$ there is an $[a,b]$-factor containing it. For $a=b=1$, an $[a,b]$-covered graph is a matching covered graph. The structural theory of matching covered graphs constitutes a…

The definition of $1$-planar graphs naturally extends graph planarity, namely a graph is $1$-planar if it can be drawn in the plane with at most one crossing per edge. Unfortunately, while testing graph planarity is solvable in linear time,…

A simultaneous embedding with fixed edges (SEFE) of two planar graphs $R$ and $B$ is a pair of plane drawings of $R$ and $B$ that coincide when restricted to the common vertices and edges of $R$ and $B$. We show that whenever $R$ and $B$…

In the area of beyond-planar graphs, i.e. graphs that can be drawn with some local restrictions on the edge crossings, the recognition problem is prominent next to the density question for the different graph classes. For 1-planar graphs,…

This article focuses on a class of properly edge-colored graphs, which arise from topological combinatorics, and investigates their embeddings onto surfaces. Specifically, these graphs are known as the dual graphs of balanced normal…

Let $G=(V, E)$ be a given edge-weighted graph and let its {\em realization} $\mathcal{G}$ be a random subgraph of $G$ that includes each edge $e \in E$ independently with probability $p$. In the {\em stochastic matching} problem, the goal…

The enhanced power graph $\mathcal{P}_e(G)$ of a group $G$ is a graph with vertex set $G$ and two vertices are adjacent if they belong to the same cyclic subgroup. In this paper, we consider the minimum degree, independence number and…

An edge-coloring of a graph $H$ is a function $\mathcal{C}: E(H) \rightarrow \mathbb{N}$. We say that $H$ is rainbow if all edges of $H$ have different colors. Given a graph $F$, an edge-colored graph $G$ is $F$-rainbow saturated if $G$…

The fourth listed author and Hans Parshall (\cite{IosevichParshall}) proved that if $E \subset {\mathbb F}_q^d$, $d \ge 2$, and $G$ is a connected graph on $k+1$ vertices such that the largest degree of any vertex is $m$, then if $|E| \ge C…

For two integers $r\geq 2$ and $h\geq 0$, the \emph{$h$-extra $r$-component connectivity} $\kappa^h_r(G)$ of a graph $G$ is defined to be the minimum size of a subset of vertices whose removal disconnects $G$, and there are at least $r$…

We study biplane graphs drawn on a finite planar point set $S$ in general position. This is the family of geometric graphs whose vertex set is $S$ and can be decomposed into two plane graphs. We show that two maximal biplane graphs---in the…

A graph is 1-planar if it can be drawn in the plane so that each edge is crossed by at most one another edge. In this work we prove that each 1-planar graph of minimum degree at least $3$ contains an edge with degrees of its endvertices of…

Let $P_{n}$ be a path graph on $n$ vertices. We say that a graph $G$ is $P_{n}$-induced-saturated if $G$ contains no induced copy of $P_{n}$, but deleting any edge of $G$ as well as adding to $G$ any edge of $G^{c}$ creates such a copy.…

This paper studies planar drawings of graphs in which each vertex is represented as a point along a sequence of horizontal lines, called levels, and each edge is either a horizontal segment or a strictly $y$-monotone curve. A graph is…
