A graph is $\ell$-reconstructible if it is determined by its multiset of induced subgraphs obtained by deleting $\ell$ vertices. We prove that strongly regular graphs with at least six vertices are $2$-reconstructible.

A vertex with neighbours of degrees $d_1 \geq ... \geq d_r$ has {\em vertex type} $(d_1, ..., d_r)$. A graph is {\em vertex-oblique} if each vertex has a distinct vertex-type. While no graph can have distinct degrees, Schreyer, Walther and…

In this paper, we illustrate important aspects of the interplay between weighing matrices, $(v,k,\lambda)$-graphs with fixed-point free involutions, and signed graphs with an orthogonal adjacency matrix, which arises from thin divisible…

An equitable $k$-partition of a graph $G$ is a collection of induced subgraphs $(G[V_1],G[V_2],\ldots,G[V_k])$ of $G$ such that $(V_1,V_2,\ldots,V_k)$ is a partition of $V(G)$ and $-1\le |V_i|-|V_j|\le 1$ for all $1\le i<j\le k$. We prove…

A design graph is a regular bipartite graph in which any two distinct vertices of the same part have the same number of common neighbors. This class of graphs have a close relationship to strongly regular graphs. In this paper, we study the…

We consider the class F of 2-connected non-planar K_{3,3}-subdivision-free graphs that are embeddable in the projective plane. We show that these graphs admit a unique decomposition as a graph K_5 (the core) where the edges are replaced by…

Let G be a simple, connected graph on n vertices. Let d_G(u,v) denote the distance between vertices u and v in G. A subgraph H of G is isometric if d_H(u,v)=d_G(u,v) for every u,v in V(H). We say that G is a distance-preserving graph if G…

Given a finite connected bipartite graph, finite-dimensional indecomposable semisimple Leibniz algebras are constructed. Furthermore, any finite-dimensional indecomposable semisimple Leibniz algebra admits a similar construction.

The interplay between groups and graphs have been the most famous and productive area of algebraic graph theory. In this paper, we introduce and study the graphs whose vertex set is group G such that two distinct vertices a and b having…

An {\em ordered $r$-graph} is an $r$-uniform hypergraph whose vertex set is linearly ordered. Given $2\leq k\leq r$, an ordered $r$-graph $H$ is {\em interval} $k$-{\em partite} if there exist at least $k$ disjoint intervals in the ordering…

For integers $k \geq 2$ and $n \geq k+1$, we prove the following: If $n\cdot k$ is even, there is a connected $k$-regular graph on $n$ vertices. If $n\cdot k$ is odd, there is a connected nearly $k$-regular graph on $n$ vertices.

There is a one-to-one correspondence between the point set of a group divisible design (GDD) with $v_1$ groups of $v_2$ points and the edge set of a complete bipartite graph $K_{v_1,v_2}$. A block of GDD corresponds to a subgraph of…

In this paper, we study commutative zero-divisor semigroups determined by graphs. We prove a uniqueness theorem for a class of graphs. We show two classes of graphs that have no corresponding semigroups. In particular, any complete graph…

The design spectrum of a simple graph $G$ is the set of positive integers $n$ such that there exists an edgewise decomposition of the complete graph $K_n$ into $n(n - 1)/(2 |E(G)|)$ copies of $G$. We compute the design spectra for 7788…

As in algebraic geometry, an effective divisor class on a vertex-weighted graph is called special if also its residual class is effective. We study the question, when this is true already on the level of divisors; that is, when there exists…
