In 2001, Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi proved that, for each $\alpha>0$, there is some $c>0$ and $n_0$ such that, if $n\geq n_0$, then every $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $(1/2+\alpha)n$ contains a copy of every…

In this paper we are defining a special class of graphs called multilayered graphs and its subclass, multilayered cycles. For that subclass of graphs we are giving the values of all vertex spans (strong, direct, or Cartesian span).…

Previous studies has shown that for a weighted undirected graph having $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, a minimal weight spanning tree can be found with $O^*(\sqrt{mn})$ calls to the weight oracle. The present note shows that a given spanning…

The simple connected graphs may be classified by their cycle composition (number and lengths of cycles). This work derives the counting series of the simple connected graphs that have cycles of unrestricted number and length, but no…

If $G$ is a strongly connected finite directed graph, the set $\mathcal{T}G$ of rooted directed spanning trees of $G$ is naturally equipped with a structure of directed graph: there is a directed edge from any spanning tree to any other…

Let P be a set of n > 2 points in general position in the plane and let G be a geometric graph with vertex set P. If the number of empty triangles uvw in P for which the subgraph of G induced by {u,v,w} is not connected is at most n-3, then…

An algorithm is proposed for constructing directed spanning forests of the minimum weight, in which the maximum possible degree of affinity between the minimum forests is preserved when the number of trees changes. The correctness of the…

In the present paper we find a simple algorithm for counting Jacobian group of the generalized Petersen graph GP(n,k). Also, we obtain a closed formula for the number of spanning trees of this graph in terms of Chebyshev polynomials.

We consider intrinsic linking and knotting in the context of directed graphs. We construct an example of a directed graph that contains a consistently oriented knotted cycle in every embedding. We also construct examples of intrinsically…

We prove that for fixed $k$, every $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices and of minimum codegree at least $n/2+o(n)$ contains every spanning tight $k$-tree of bounded vertex degree as a sub\-graph. This generalises a well-known result of…

The number of spanning trees of a graph $G$, denoted $\tau(G)$, is a well studied graph parameter with numerous connections to other areas of mathematics. In a recent remarkable paper, answering a question of Sedl\'a\v{c}ek from 1969, Chan,…

Completely independent spanning trees in a graph $G$ are spanning trees of $G$ such that for any two distinct vertices of $G$, the paths between them in the spanning trees are pairwise edge-disjoint and internally vertex-disjoint. In this…

We prove that any graph $G$ with $n$ points has a distribution $\mathcal{T}$ over spanning trees such that for any edge $(u,v)$ the expected stretch $E_{T \sim \mathcal{T}}[d_T(u,v)/d_G(u,v)]$ is bounded by $\tilde{O}(\log n)$. Our result…

Let $G$ be a graph (with multiple edges allowed) and let $T$ be a tree in $G$. We say that $T$ is $\textit{even}$ if every leaf of $T$ belongs to the same part of the bipartition of $T$, and that $T$ is $\textit{weakly even}$ if every leaf…

We show that there exists an outerplanar graph on $O(n^{c})$ vertices for $c = \log_2(3+\sqrt{10}) \approx 2.623$ that contains every tree on $n$ vertices as a subgraph. This extends a result of Chung and Graham from 1983 who showed that…

Counting the number of spanning trees in specific classes of graphs has attracted increasing attention in recent years. In this note, we present unified proofs and generalizations of several results obtained in the 2020s. The main method is…
