We study vertex-ordering problems in loop-free digraphs subject to constraints on the left-going arcs, focusing on existence conditions and computational complexity. As an intriguing special case, we explore vertex-specific lower and upper…
An important property of chordal graphs is that these graphs are characterized by existence of perfect elimination orderings on their vertex sets. In this paper, we generalize the notion of perfect elimination orderings to signed graphs,…
Order diagrams are an important tool to visualize the complex structure of ordered sets. Favorable drawings of order diagrams, i.e., easily readable for humans, are hard to come by, even for small ordered sets. Many attempts were made to…
We describe a new class of scattering matrices for quantum graphs in which back-scattering is prohibited. We discuss some properties of quantum graphs with these scattering matrices and explain the advantages and interest in their study. We…
A new kind of diagrams is presented, showing the causal structure of bimetric interactions.
In order to have a compact visualization of the order type of a given point set S, we are interested in geometric graphs on S with few edges that unambiguously display the order type of S. We introduce the concept of exit edges, which…
We characterize the order of principal congruences of a bounded lattice as a bounded ordered set. We also state a number of open problems in this new field.
A graph is circle if its vertices are in correspondence with a family of chords in a circle in such a way that every two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if the corresponding chords have nonempty intersection. Even though there…
The paper examines a partial order on bipartite graphs (X1, X2, E) with n vertices, X1UX2={1,2,...,n}. This partial order is a natural partial order of subobjects of an object in a triangular category with bipartite graphs as morphisms.
An arc of a graph is an oriented edge and a 3-arc is a 4-tuple $(v,u,x,y)$ of vertices such that both $(v,u,x)$ and $(u,x,y)$ are paths of length two. The 3-arc graph of a graph $G$ is defined to have vertices the arcs of $G$ such that two…
The study of the graph diameter of polytopes is a classical open problem in polyhedral geometry and the theory of linear optimization. In this paper we continue the investigation initiated in [4] by introducing a vast hierarchy of…
Geometric motivations warranted the study of hypergraphs on ordered vertices that have no pair of hyperedges that induce an alternation of some given length. Such hypergraphs are called ABA-free, ABAB-free and so on. Since then various…
We examine ordered graphs, defined as graphs with linearly ordered vertices, from the perspective of homomorphisms (and colorings) and their complexities. We demonstrate the corresponding computational and parameterized complexities, along…
Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex connected graph. A cyclic base ordering of $G$ is a cyclic ordering of all edges such that every cyclically consecutive $n-1$ edges induce a spanning tree of $G$. In this project, we study cyclic base ordering of…
In this dissertation, we explore the structure of inversion graphs of permutations--a class of graphs that naturally arises by representing each permutation as a graph, where vertices correspond to entries and edges encode inversions.…
The class of intersection bigraphs of unit intervals of the real line whose ends may be open or closed is called a class of mixed unit interval bigraphs. This class of bigraphs is a strict superclass of the class of unit interval bigraphs.…
Consider a sequence of LexBFS vertex orderings {\sigma}1, {\sigma}2, . . . where each ordering {\sigma}i is used to break ties for {\sigma}i+1. Since the total number of vertex orderings of a finite graph is finite, this sequence must end…
A graph is concave-round if its vertices can be circularly enumerated so that the closed neighbourhood of each vertex is an interval in the enumeration. In this work, we give a minimal forbidden induced subgraph characterization for the…
It is shown that each subgroup of odd index in an alternating group of degree at least 10 has all insoluble composition factors to be alternating. A classification is then given of 2-arc-transitive graphs of odd order admitting an…
Several matroids can be defined on the edge set of a graph. Although historically the cycle matroid has been the most studied, in recent times, the bicircular matroid has cropped up in several places. A theorem of Matthews from late 1970s…
