In \cite{4} Kauffman and Vogel constructed a rigid vertex regular isotopy invariant for unoriented four-valent graphs embedded in three dimensional space. It assigns to each embedded graph $G$ a polynomial, denoted $[G]$, in three…
Let $G$ be 2-generated group. The generating graph $\Gamma(G)$ of $G$ is the graph whose vertices are the elements of $G$ and where two vertices $g$ and $h$ are adjacent if $G = \langle g, h \rangle.$ This definition can be extended to a…
A $3$-connected graph $G$ is a brick if, for any two vertices $u$ and $v$, the graph $G-\{u,v\}$ has a perfect matching. Deleting an edge $e$ from a brick $G$ results in a graph with zero, one or two vertices of degree two. The…
This paper considers the \textit{Zarankiewicz problem} in graphs with low-dimensional geometric representation (i.e., low Ferrers dimension). Our first result reveals a separation between bipartite graphs of Ferrers dimension three and…
Given a graph $G$ and a subset $X$ of vertices of $G$ with size at least two, we denote by $N^2_G(X)$ the set of vertices of $G$ that have at least two neighbors in $X$. We say that a bipartite graph $G$ with sides $A$ and $B$ satisfies the…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph and $e=uv\in E$. Define $n_u(e,G)$ be the number of vertices of $G$ closer to $u$ than to $v$. The number $n_v(e,G)$ can be defined in an analogous way. The Mostar index of $G$ is a new graph invariant defined as…
Let $G_1=(V_1,E_1)$ and $G_2=(V_2,E_2)$ be two graphs with disjoint vertex sets $V_1$ and $V_2$. Let $u_1 \in V_1$ and $u_2 \in V_2$. A splice of $G_1$ and $G_2$ by vertices $u_1$ and $u_2$, $\mathcal{S}(G_1,G_2;u_1,u_2)$, is defined by…
It was proved by Scott that for every $k\ge2$, there exists a constant $c(k)>0$ such that for every bipartite $n$-vertex graph $G$ without isolated vertices, there exists an induced subgraph $H$ of order at least $c(k)n$ such that…
We investigate some graph parameters dealing with biindependent pairs $(A,B)$ in a bipartite graph $G=(V_1\cup V_2,E)$, i.e., pairs $(A,B)$ where $A\subseteq V_1$, $B\subseteq V_2$ and $A\cup B$ is independent. These parameters also allow…
A bipartite graph $G=(L,R;E)$ with at least one edge is said to be identifiable if for every vertex $v\in L$, the subgraph induced by its non-neighbors has a matching of cardinality $|L|-1$. An $\ell$-subgraph of $G$ is an induced subgraph…
For a graph $G$, the $t$-th power $G^t$ is the graph on $V(G)$ such that two vertices are adjacent if and only if they have distance at most $t$ in $G$; and the $t$-th bi-power $G_B^t$ is the graph on $V(G)$ such that two vertices are…
In this paper, we focus on comparing the first and second Zagreb-Fermat eccentricity indices of graphs. We show that $$\frac{\sum_{uv\in E\left( G \right)}{\varepsilon_3\left( u \right) \varepsilon_3\left( v \right)}}{m\left( G \right)}…
In this paper we show that if the Stanley-Reisner ring of the simplicial complex of independent sets of a bipartite graph $G$ satisfies Serre's condition $S_2$, then $G$ is Cohen-Macaulay. As a consequence, the characterization of…
Let G be a group. The intersection graph G(G) of G is an undirected graph without loops and multiple edges defined as follows: the vertex set is the set of all proper nontrivial subgroups of G; and there is an edge between two distinct…
In this paper we study the Szeged index of partial cubes and hence generalize the result proved by V. Chepoi and S. Klav\v{z}ar, who calculated this index for benzenoid systems. It is proved that the problem of calculating the Szeged index…
Do\v{s}li\'{c} et al.~defined the Mostar index of a graph $G$ as $\sum\limits_{uv\in E(G)}|n_G(u,v)-n_G(v,u)|$, where, for an edge $uv$ of $G$, the term $n_G(u,v)$ denotes the number of vertices of $G$ that have a smaller distance in $G$ to…
Continuing the recent work of L. Zhong and K. Xu [MATCH Commun. Math. Comput. Chem.71(2014) 627-642], we determine inequalities among several vertex-degree-based topological indices; first geometric-arithmetic index(GA), augmented Zagreb…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity. The essential ideal graph $\mathcal{E}_{R}$ of $R$ is a graph whose vertex set consists of all nonzero proper ideals of \textit{R}. Two vertices $\hat{I}$ and $\hat{J}$ are adjacent if and only if…
Let $G$ be a finite simple graph and $I(G)$ denote the corresponding edge ideal. For all $s \geq 1$, we obtain upper bounds for reg$(I(G)^s)$ for bipartite graphs. We then compare the properties of $G$ and $G'$, where $G'$ is the graph…
Let $i_t(G)$ denote the number of independent sets of size $t$ in a graph $G$. Levit and Mandrescu have conjectured that for all bipartite $G$ the sequence $(i_t(G))_{t \geq 0}$ (the {\em independent set sequence} of $G$) is unimodal. We…
