A thrackle is a drawing of a graph on a surface such that (i) adjacent edges only intersect at their common vertex; and (ii) nonadjacent edges intersect at exactly one point, at which they cross. Conway conjectured that if a graph with $n$…
Mixed graphs can be seen as digraphs with arcs and edges (or digons, that is, two opposite arcs). In this paper, we consider the case where such graphs are bipartite and in which the undirected and directed degrees are one. The best graphs,…
A well-known conjecture by Erd\H{o}s states that every triangle-free graph on $n$ vertices can be made bipartite by removing at most $n^2/25$ edges. This conjecture was known for graphs with edge density at least $0.4$ and edge density at…
A graph is a $k$-threshold graph with thresholds $\theta_1, \theta_2, \dots, \theta_k$ if we can assign a real number $r_v$ to each vertex $v$ such that for any two distinct vertices $u$ and $v$, $uv$ is an edge if and only if the number of…
An \emph{obstacle representation} of a graph consists of a set of polygonal obstacles and a distinct point for each vertex such that two points see each other if and only if the corresponding vertices are adjacent. Obstacle representations…
Intuitively speaking, a bipartite graph is mirror if it can be drawn in the Cartesian plane in such a way that, the vertices of one stable are points in x=0, the vertices of the other stable set are points in x=1, the edges are straight…
Bipartite graphs are a fundamental concept in graph theory with diverse applications. A graph is bipartite iff it contains no odd cycles, a characteristic that has many implications in diverse fields ranging from matching problems to the…
A shelling of a graph, viewed as an abstract simplicial complex that is pure of dimension 1, is an ordering of its edges such that every edge is adjacent to some other edges appeared previously. In this paper, we focus on complete bipartite…
We use Menger's Theorem and K\"onig's Line Colouring Theorem to show that in any tripartite graph with two complete (bipartite) sides the maximum number of pairwise edge-disjoint triangles equals the minimum number of edges that meet all…
A geometric graph is a drawing of a graph in the plane where the vertices are drawn as points in general position and the edges as straight-line segments connecting their endpoints. It is plane if it contains no crossing edges. We study…
Given $3 \leq k \leq s$, we say that a $k$-uniform hypergraph $C^k_s$ is a tight cycle on $s$ vertices if there is a cyclic ordering of the vertices of $C^k_s$ such that every $k$ consecutive vertices under this ordering form an edge. We…
A graph $G$ is a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG) if there exists an edge-weighted tree and an interval $I$, such that each leaf of the tree is a vertex of the graph, and there is an edge $\{ x, y \}$ in $G$ if and only if the weight of…
A graph $G$ is called a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG, for short) if it admits a tuple $(T,w, d_{\min},d_{\max})$ of a tree $T$ whose leaf set is equal to the vertex set of $G$, a non-negative edge weight $w$, and two non-negative reals…
A perfect $H$-tiling in a graph $G$ is a collection of vertex-disjoint copies of a graph $H$ in $G$ that covers all vertices of $G$. Motivated by papers of Bush and Zhao and of Balogh, Treglown, and Wagner, we determine the threshold for…
Considering regular graphs with every edge in a triangle we prove lower bounds for the number of triangles in such graphs. For r-regular graphs with r <= 5 we exhibit families of graphs with exactly that number of triangles and then…
A good drawing of a simple graph is a drawing on the sphere or, equivalently, in the plane in which vertices are drawn as distinct points, edges are drawn as Jordan arcs connecting their end vertices, and any pair of edges intersects at…
A graph is called a strong (resp. weak) bar 1-visibility graph if its vertices can be represented as horizontal segments (bars) in the plane so that its edges are all (resp. a subset of) the pairs of vertices whose bars have a…
We show that, for any graph or matroid, there is a tree that simultaneously distinguishes its maximal tangles, and, for each maximal tangle $\mathcal{T}$ that satisfies an additional robustness condition, displays all of the non-trivial…
It is a longstanding conjecture that every simple drawing of a complete graph on $n \geq 3$ vertices contains a crossing-free Hamiltonian cycle. We strengthen this conjecture to "there exists a crossing-free Hamiltonian path between each…
Extending the work of Godsil and others, we investigate the notion of the inverse of a graph (specifically, of bipartite graphs with a unique perfect matching). We provide a concise necessary and sufficient condition for the invertibility…
