Let $G$ be a finite simple graph on the vertex set $V(G)$ and let $r$ be a positive integer. We consider the hypergraph $\mathrm{Con}_r(G)$ whose vertices are the vertices of $G$ and the (hyper)edges are all $A\subseteq V(G)$ such that…

Albertson has defined the irregularity of a simple undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ as $ \irr(G) = \sum_{uv\in E}|d_G(u)-d_G(v)|,$ where $d_G(u)$ denotes the degree of a vertex $u \in V$. Recently, this graph invariant gained interest in the…

Unitary graphs are arc-transitive graphs with vertices the flags of Hermitian unitals and edges defined by certain elements of the underlying finite fields. They played a significant role in a recent classification of a class of…

We study the Bakry-\'Emery curvature function $\mathcal{K}_{G,x}:(0,\infty]\to \mathbb{R}$ of a vertex $x$ in a locally finite graph $G$ systematically. Here $\mathcal{K}_{G,x}(\mathcal{N})$ is defined as the optimal curvature lower bound…

We give a classification of all connected quartic graphs which are (infinity) curvature sharp in all vertices with respect to Bakry-\'Emery curvature. The result is based on a computer classification by F. Gurr and L. Watson May and a…

We study upper bounds for the first non-zero eigenvalue of the Steklov problem defined on finite graphs with boundary. For finite graphs with boundary included in a Cayley graph associated to a group of polynomial growth, we give an upper…

We define the distance between edges of graphs and study the coarse Ricci curvature on edges. We consider the Laplacian on edges based on the Jost-Horak's definition of the Laplacian on simplicial complexes. As one of our main results, we…

Torsion and Betti numbers for knots are special cases of more general invariants associated to a finitely generated group G and epimorphism from G to the integers. The sequence of Betti numbers is always periodic; under mild hypotheses, the…

Cut ideals, introduced by Sturmfels and Sullivant, are used in phylogenetics and algebraic statistics. We study the minimal free resolutions of cut ideals of tree graphs. By employing basic methods from topological combinatorics, we obtain…

On the ambient space of a Lie group with a left invariant metric that is isometric and isomorphic to a semidirect product $\mathbb{R}^2\rtimes_A\mathbb{R}$, we consider a domain $\Omega\subseteq \mathbb{R}^2\rtimes_A\{0\}$ and vertical…

We prove that the total curvature of any planar graph with nonnegative combinatorial curvature is an integral multiple of $\frac{1}{12}.$ As a corollary, this answers a question proposed by T. R\'eti.
