Let $\Sigma$ be a surface with boundary $b(\Sigma)$, $\mathcal{L}$ be a collection of $k$ disjoint $b(\Sigma)$-paths in $\Sigma$, and $P$ be a non-separating $b(\Sigma)$-path in $\Sigma$. We prove that there is a homeomorphism $\phi: \Sigma…

We show that for sufficiently large $d$ and for $t\geq d+1$, there is a graph $G$ with average degree $(1-\varepsilon)\lambda t \sqrt{\ln d}$ such that almost every graph $H$ with $t$ vertices and average degree $d$ is not a minor of $G$,…

We bound the second eigenvalue of random $d$-regular graphs, for a wide range of degrees $d$, using a novel approach based on Fourier analysis. Let $G_{n, d}$ be a uniform random $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices, and let $\lambda (G_{n,…

It is well known that spectral Tur\'{a}n type problem is one of the most classical {problems} in graph theory. In this paper, we consider the spectral Tur\'{a}n type problem. Let $G$ be a graph and let $\mathcal{G}$ be a set of graphs, we…

Let $\Psi(t,k)$ denote the set of pairs $(v,\lambda)$ for which there exists a graphical $t$-$(v,k,\lambda)$ design. Most results on graphical designs have gone to show the finiteness of $\Psi(t,k)$ when $t$ and $k$ satisfy certain…

The modularity of a graph is a parameter that measures its community structure; the higher its value (between $0$ and $1$), the more clustered the graph is. In this paper we show that the modularity of a random $3$-regular graph is at least…

We investigate the existence and multiplicity of solutions for a class of generalized coupled system involving poly-Laplacian and a parameter $\lambda$ on finite graphs. By using mountain pass lemma together with cut-off technique, we…

A vertex $w$ of a connected graph $G$ strongly resolves two vertices $u,v\in V(G)$, if there exists some shortest $u-w$ path containing $v$ or some shortest $v-w$ path containing $u$. A set $S$ of vertices is a strong metric generator for…

Let $G$ be a connected nonregular graphs of order $n$ with maximum degree $\Delta$ that attains the maximum spectral radius. Liu and Li (2008) proposed a conjecture stating that $G$ has a degree sequence $(\Delta,\ldots,\Delta,\delta)$ with…

We show that for any $\Delta \geq 3$, there is no bound computable from $(\varepsilon, r)$ on the size of a graph required to approximate a graph of maximum degree at most $\Delta$ up to $\varepsilon$ error in $r$-neighborhood statistics.…

We study the maximum dimension $d=d(n,p)$ for which an Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi $G(n,p)$ random graph is $d$-rigid. Our main results reveal two different regimes of rigidity in $G(n,p)$ separated at $p_c=C_*\log n/n,~C_*=2/(1-\log 2)$ -- the point…

We prove the existence of directed strongly regular graphs with parameters (60,21,11,6,8), (60,22,12,8,8), (60,24,10,9,10), (60,25,17,8,12), (60,27,21,12,12) and (60,28,20,14,12). The group $S_5 \times 2$ acts transitively on the…

We present an interactive framework that, given a membership test for a graph class $\mathcal{G}$ and a number $k$, finds and tests unavoidable sets for the class of graphs in $\mathcal{G}$ of path-width at most $k$. We put special emphasis…

Given a graph $G$, let $\Delta_2(G)$ denote the maximum number of neighbors any two distinct vertices of $G$ have in common. Vu (2002) proposed that, provided $\Delta_2(G)$ is not too small as a proportion of the maximum degree $\Delta(G)$…

We prove that for $k \ll \sqrt[4]{n}$ regular resolution requires length $n^{\Omega(k)}$ to establish that an Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph with appropriately chosen edge density does not contain a $k$-clique. This lower bound is optimal up to…

Let $t\geq3$ and $G$ be a graph of order $n,$ with no $K_{2,t}$ minor. If $n>400t^{6}$, then the spectral radius $\mu\left( G\right) $ satisfies \[ \mu\left( G\right) \leq\frac{t-1}{2}+\sqrt{n+\frac{t^{2}-2t-3}{4}}, \] with equality if and…

A graph is said to be $k$-{\em isoregular} if any two vertex subsets of cardinality at most $k$, that induce subgraphs of the same isomorphism type, have the same number of neighbors. It is shown that no $3$-isoregular bicirculant (and more…

A locally irregular graph is a graph whose adjacent vertices have distinct degrees. It was conjectured that every connected graph is edge decomposable to $3$ locally irregular subgraphs, unless it belongs to a certain family of exceptions,…

The Conway-99 problem questions the existence of a strongly regular graph with 99 vertices and specific parameters. A \textit{strongly} regular graph is a regular graph that exhibits two additional properties: vertices must share a fixed…

Let $i(r,g)$ denote the infimum of the ratio $\frac{\alpha(G)}{|V(G)|}$ over the $r$-regular graphs of girth at least $g$, where $\alpha(G)$ is the independence number of $G$, and let $i(r,\infty) := \lim\limits_{g \to \infty} i(r,g)$.…
