For a positive integer $k$, a graph property $\mathcal{H}$, and a graph parameter $\mathcal{P}$, let $\operatorname{ex}_{\mathcal{P}}(n, \mathcal{H}; \delta \geq k)$ denote the maximum value of $\mathcal{P}$ over all $n$-vertex graphs with…

Given integers $m$ and $f$, let $S_n(m,f)$ consist of all integers $e$ such that every $n$-vertex graph with $e$ edges contains an $m$-vertex induced subgraph with $f$ edges, and let $\sigma(m,f)=\limsup_{n\rightarrow\infty}…

In the evolving voter model, when an individual interacts with a neighbor having an opinion different from theirs, they will with probability $1-\alpha$ imitate the neighbor but with probability $ \alpha$ will sever the connection and…

We prove a sharp upper bound on the number of shortest cycles contained inside any connected graph in terms of its number of vertices, girth, and maximal degree. Equality holds only for Moore graphs, which gives a new characterization of…

A doubly group-labeled graph is an oriented graph with its edges labeled by elements of the direct sum of two groups $\Gamma_1,\Gamma_2$. A cycle in a doubly group-labeled graph is $(\Gamma_1,\Gamma_2)$-non-zero if it is non-zero in both…

De Finetti's classical result of [18] identifying the law of an exchangeable family of random variables as a mixture of i.i.d. laws was extended to structure theorems for more complex notions of exchangeability by Aldous [1,2,3], Hoover…

Characterizations graphs of some classes to induce periodic Grover walks have been studied for recent years. In particular, for the strongly regular graphs, it has been known that there are only three kinds of such graphs. Here, we focus on…

We study the properties of finite graphs in which the ball of radius $r$ around each vertex induces a graph isomorphic to some fixed graph $F$. This is a natural extension of the study of regular graphs, and of the study of graphs of…

We extend the closed graph theorem and the open mapping theorem to a context in which a natural duality interchanges their extensions.

The Brouwer's toughness conjecture states that every $d$-regular connected graph always has $t(G)>\frac{d}{\lambda}-1$ where $\lambda$ is the second largest absolute eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix. In 1988, Enomoto introduced a…

Friends-and-strangers graphs, coined by Defant and Kravitz, are denoted by $\mathsf{FS}(X,Y)$ where $X$ and $Y$ are both graphs on $n$ vertices. The graph $X$ represents positions and edges mark adjacent positions while the graph $Y$…

Consider a pair of correlated Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs $\mathcal G(n,\tfrac{\lambda}{n};s)$ that are subsampled from a common parent Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph with average degree $\lambda$ and subsampling probability $s$. We establish a sharp…

Let $H$ and $G$ be two finite graphs. Define $h_H(G)$ to be the number of homomorphisms from $H$ to $G$. The function $h_H(\cdot)$ extends in a natural way to a function from the set of symmetric matrices to $\mathbb{R}$ such that for…

Let $W(G)$ be the Wiener index of a graph $G$. We say that a vertex $v \in V(G)$ is a \v{S}olt\'es vertex in $G$ if $W(G - v) = W(G)$, i.e. the Wiener index does not change if the vertex $v$ is removed. In 1991, \v{S}olt\'es posed the…

A graph $G$ is said to be determined by the spectrum of its Laplacian matrix (DLS) if every graph with the same spectrum is isomorphic to $G$. van Dam and Haemers (2003) conjectured that almost all graphs have this property, but that is…
