A complete graph is the graph in which every two vertices are adjacent. For a graph $G=(V,E)$, the complete width of $G$ is the minimum $k$ such that there exist $k$ independent sets $\mathtt{N}_i\subseteq V$, $1\le i\le k$, such that the…

We present exact calculations of reliability polynomials $R(G,p)$ for lattice strips $G$ of fixed widths $L_y \le 4$ and arbitrarily great length $L_x$ with various boundary conditions. We introduce the notion of a reliability per vertex,…

A beautiful conjecture of Erd\H{o}s-Simonovits and Sidorenko states that if H is a bipartite graph, then the random graph with edge density p has in expectation asymptotically the minimum number of copies of H over all graphs of the same…

Let $r \ge 3$ be fixed and $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph. A long-standing conjecture of Gy\H{o}ri states that if $e(G) = t_{r-1}(n) + k$, where $t_{r-1}(n)$ denotes the number of edges of the Tur\'{a}n graph on $n$ vertices and $r - 1$ parts,…

The Birkhoff polytope $\Omega_n$ is the polytope of doubly stochastic matrices of order $n$. The Birkhoff polytope graph $G(\Omega_n)$ is the skeleton of $\Omega_n$; it is the Cayley graph whose vertex set consists of the elements of the…

In 1966, Erd\H{o}s, Goodman, and P\'osa proved that $\lfloor n^2/4 \rfloor$ cliques are sufficient to cover all edges in any $n$-vertex graph, with tightness achieved by the balanced complete bipartite graph. This result was generalized by…

We study the distances of edges within cliques in a soft random geometric graph on a torus, where the vertices are points of a homogeneous Poisson point process, and far-away points are less likely to be connected than nearby points. We…

Addressing a question posed by Chen and Ma from an asymptotic point of view, we present a short proof for the edge density needed to guarantee that two vertices of the same degree are connected by a path of a fixed length. In particular, we…

Consider a graph on $n$ uniform random points in the unit square, each pair being connected by an edge with probability $p$ if the inter-point distance is at most $r$. We show that as $n\to\infty$ the probability of full connectivity is…

The (k,d)-hypersimplex is a (d-1)-dimensional polytope whose vertices are the (0,1)-vectors that sum to k. When k=1, we get a simplex whose graph is the complete graph with d vertices. Here we show how many of the well known graph…

We study the appearance of the giant component in random subgraphs of a given large finite graph G=(V,E) in which each edge is present independently with probability p. We show that if G is an expander with vertices of bounded degree, then…

A strong clique in a graph is a clique intersecting every maximal independent set. We study the computational complexity of six algorithmic decision problems related to strong cliques in graphs and almost completely determine their…

We prove that for all positive integers $t$, every $n$-vertex graph with no $K_t$-subdivision has at most $2^{50t}n$ cliques. We also prove that asymptotically, such graphs contain at most $2^{(5+o(1))t}n$ cliques, where $o(1)$ tends to…

Over 50 years ago, Erd\H{o}s and Gallai conjectured that the edges of every graph on $n$ vertices can be decomposed into $O(n)$ cycles and edges. Among other results, Conlon, Fox and Sudakov recently proved that this holds for the random…

A \emph{random temporal graph} is an Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G(n,p)$, together with a random ordering of its edges. A path in the graph is called \emph{increasing} if the edges on the path appear in increasing order. A set $S$ of…

We consider a problem of approximating the size of the largest clique in a graph, with a monotone circuit. Concretely, we focus on distinguishing a random Erd\H{o}s-Renyi graph $\mathcal{G}_{n,p}$, with $p=n^{-\frac{2}{\alpha-1}}$ chosen…

A graph is said to be well-covered if all its maximal independent sets are of the same size. In 1999, Yamashita and Kameda introduced a subclass of well-covered graphs, called localizable graphs and defined as graphs having a partition of…
