We characterize which groups splitting as finite graphs of free groups with cyclic edge groups are residually finite. Such a group $G$ is residually finite if and only if all its Baumslag-Solitar subgroups are residually finite. From a…

In this note, we show that among finite nilpotent groups of a given order or finite groups of a given odd order, the cyclic group of that order has the minimum number of edges in its cyclic subgroup graph. We also conjecture that this holds…

Chen, Faudree, Gould, Jacobson, and Lesniak determined the minimum degree threshold for which a balanced $k$-partite graph has a Hamiltonian cycle. We give an asymptotically tight minimum degree condition for Hamiltonian cycles in arbitrary…

We study the asymptotics of large, simple, labeled graphs constrained by the densities of edges and of $k$-star subgraphs, $k\ge 2$ fixed. We prove that under such constraints graphs are "multipodal": asymptotically in the number of…

We study how few pairwise distinct longest cycles a regular graph can have under additional constraints. For each integer $r \geq 5$, we give exponential improvements for the best asymptotic upper bounds for this invariant under the…

Given a directed graph G=(V,E) an independent set A of the vertices V is called quasi-kernel (quasi-sink) iff for each point v there is a path of length at most 2 from some point of A to v (from v to some point of A). Every finite directed…

It is well known that every sufficiently large connected graph has, as an induced subgraph, $K_n$, $K_{1,n}$, or an $n$-vertex path. A 2023 paper of Allred, Ding, and Oporowski identified a set of unavoidable induced subgraphs of…

We prove that the topological cycle space C(G) of a locally finite graph G is generated by its geodetic topological circles. We further show that, although the finite cycles of G generate C(G), its finite geodetic cycles need not generate…

It is a consequence of the theorem of Stallings on groups with many ends that splittings over finite groups are preserved by quasi-isometries. In this paper we use asymptotic topology to show that group splittings are preserved by…

In this paper we give an approximate answer to a question of Nash-Williams from 1970: we show that for every \alpha > 0, every sufficiently large graph on n vertices with minimum degree at least (1/2 + \alpha)n contains at least n/8…

We show that the total variation mixing time is not quasi-isometry invariant, even for Cayley graphs. Namely, we construct a sequence of pairs of Cayley graphs with maps between them that twist the metric in a bounded way, while the ratio…

Symplectic Field Theory studies J-holomorphic curves in almost complex manifolds with cylindrical ends. One natural generalization is to replace 'cylindrical' by 'asymptotically cylindrical'. In this article, we generalize the asymptotic…

We present a novel construction of finite groupoids whose Cayley graphs have large girth even w.r.t. a discounted distance measure that contracts arbitrarily long sequences of edges from the same colour class (sub-groupoid), and only counts…

A characterization is completed for finite groups acting arc-transitively on maps with square-free Euler characteristic, associated with infinite families of regular maps of square-free Euler characteristic presented. This is based on a…

We describe an algorithm for the exhaustive generation of non-isomorphic graphs with a given number $k \ge 0$ of hamiltonian cycles, which is especially efficient for small $k$. Our main findings, combining applications of this algorithm…

The theory of graph limits represents large graphs by analytic objects called graphons. Graph limits determined by finitely many graph densities, which are represented by finitely forcible graphons, arise in various scenarios, particularly…

The periodic discrete Toda equation defined over finite fields has been studied. We obtained the finite graph structures constructed by the network of states where edges denote possible time evolutions. We simplify the graphs by introducing…

We prove two characterisations of accessibility of locally finite quasi-transitive connected graphs. First, we prove that any such graph $G$ is accessible if and only if its set of separations of finite order is an ${\rm Aut}(G)$-finitely…

We show that any grafting ray in Teichm\"{u}ller space is (strongly) asymptotic to some Teichm\"{u}ller geodesic ray. As an intermediate step we introduce surfaces that arise as limits of these degenerating Riemann surfaces. Given a…

We prove several criteria for quasi-isometry between non-locally-finite graphs and their structure trees. Results of M\"oller in \cite{moeller92ends2} for locally finite and transitive graphs are generalized. We also give a criterion which…
