We consider bipartite graphs definable in o-minimal structures, in which the edge relation $G$ is a finite union of graphs of certain measure-preserving maps. We establish a fact on the existence of definable matchings with few short…
Bipartite graphs are a prevalent modeling tool for real-world networks, capturing interactions between vertices of two different types. Within this framework, bicliques emerge as crucial structures when studying dense subgraphs: they are…
The $c$-packedness property, proposed in 2010, is a geometric property that captures the spatial distribution of a set of edges. Despite the recent interest in $c$-packedness, its utility has so far been limited to Fr\'echet distance…
Packing disjoint subgraphs in a given graph is a fundamental problem with many applications. Motivated by political districting, we focus on connected subgraphs that are compact (e.g., having constant radius from a single center vertex) and…
There are three usual definitions of a maximum bipartite clique (biclique) in a bipartite graph\,: either maximizing the number of vertices, or of edges, or finding a maximum balanced biclique. The first problem can be solved in polynomial…
In a disk graph, every vertex corresponds to a disk in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and two vertices are connected by an edge whenever the two corresponding disks intersect. Disk graphs form an important class of geometric intersection graphs, which…
A \emph{queue layout} of a graph consists of a total order of the vertices, and a partition of the edges into \emph{queues}, such that no two edges in the same queue are nested. The minimum number of queues in a queue layout of a graph is…
In this paper infinite families of linear binary nested completely regular codes are constructed. They have covering radius $\rho$ equal to $3$ or $4$, and are $1/2^i$-th parts, for $i\in\{1,\ldots,u\}$ of binary (respectively, extended…
In this paper we are concerned with the problem of finding hypersurfaces of constant curvature and prescribed boundary in the Euclidean space, using the theory of fully nonlinear elliptic equations. We prove that if the given data admits a…
A biclique of a graph $G$ is an induced complete bipartite subgraph of $G$ such that neither part is empty. A star is a biclique of $G$ such that one part has exactly one vertex. The star graph of $G$ is the intersection graph of the…
The smallest number of cliques, covering all edges of a graph $ G $, is called the (edge) clique cover number of $ G $ and is denoted by $ cc(G) $. It is an easy observation that for every line graph $ G $ with $ n $ vertices, $cc(G)\leq n…
Motivated by the concept of well-covered graphs, we define a graph to be well-bicovered if every vertex-maximal bipartite subgraph has the same order (which we call the bipartite number). We first give examples of them, compare them with…
We prove that any graph excluding $K_r$ as a minor has can be partitioned into clusters of diameter at most $\Delta$ while removing at most $O(r/\Delta)$ fraction of the edges. This improves over the results of Fakcharoenphol and Talwar,…
We investigate a number of coloring problems restricted to bipartite graphs with bounded diameter. First, we investigate the $k$-List Coloring, List $k$-Coloring, and $k$-Precoloring Extension problems on bipartite graphs with diameter at…
A graph $G$ is universal for a class of graphs $\mathcal{C}$, if, up to isomorphism, $G$ contains every graph in $\mathcal{C}$ as a subgraph. In 1978, Chung and Graham asked for the minimal number $s(n)$ of edges in a graph with $n$…
A biclique in a graph $G$ is a complete bipartite subgraph (not necessarily induced), and the least positive integer $k$ for which the vertex set of $G$ can be partitioned into at most $k$ bicliques is the biclique vertex partition number…
It has been known since 1991 that the problem of recognizing grid intersection graphs is NP-complete. Here we use a modified argument of the above result to show that even if we restrict to the class of unit grid intersection graphs…
A simple undirected graph is said to be {\em semisymmetric} if it is regular and edge-transitive but not vertex-transitive. Every semisymmetric graph is a bipartite graph with two parts of equal size. It was proved in [{\em J. Combin.…
A cut $C:=\partial(X)$ of a matching covered graph $G$ is a separating cut if both its $C$-contractions $G/X$ and $G/\overline{X}$ are also matching covered. A brick is solid if it is free of nontrivial separating cuts. In 2004, we…
Contact representations of graphs have a long history. Most research has focused on problems in 2D, but 3D contact representations have also been investigated, mostly concerning fully-dimensional geometric objects such as spheres or cubes.…
