A graph $G$ is called well-covered if all maximal independent sets of vertices have the same cardinality. A simplicial complex $\Delta$ is called pure if all of its facets have the same cardinality. Let $\mathcal G$ be the class of graphs…

A finite group $G$ is called Cayley integral if all undirected Cayley graphs over $G$ are integral, i.e., all eigenvalues of the graphs are integers. The Cayley integral groups have been determined by Kloster and Sander in the abelian case,…

Let $G$ be a finite group. For each $m>1$ we define the symmetric canonical subset $S=S(m)$ of the Cartesian power $G^m$ and we consider the family of Cayley graphs $\mathscr{G}_m(G)=Cay(G^m,S)$. We describe properties of these graphs and…

A forcing set for a perfect matching of a graph is defined as a subset of the edges of that perfect matching such that there exists a unique perfect matching containing it. A complete forcing set for a graph is a subset of its edges, such…

A vertex subset $S$ of a graph $G$ is a perfect (resp. quasiperfect) dominating set in $G$ if each vertex $v$ of $G\setminus S$ is adjacent to only one vertex ($d_v\in\{1,2\}$ vertices) of $S$. Perfect and quasiperfect dominating sets in…

We generalise the standard constructions of a Cayley graph in terms of a group presentation by allowing some vertices to obey different relators than others. The resulting notion of presentation allows us to represent every vertex…

Let $\Gamma$ be a simple graph with $n$ vertices. The energy of $\Gamma$, denoted by $\mathcal{E}(\Gamma)$, is defined as the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of $\Gamma$. The graph $\Gamma$ is said to be hyperenergetic if…

In this paper, we characterize the class of {\em contraction perfect} graphs which are the graphs that remain perfect after the contraction of any edge set. We prove that a graph is contraction perfect if and only if it is perfect and the…

Let $G$ be a graph and $\Gamma$ a finite abelian group. The zero-sum Ramsey number of $G$ over $\Gamma$, denoted by $R(G, \Gamma)$, is the smallest positive integer $t$ (if it exists) such that any edge-colouring $c:E(K_t)\to\Gamma$…

For any finite abelian group $G$ and any subset $S\seq G$, we determine the connectivity of the addition Cayley graph induced by $S$ on $G$. Moreover, we show that if this graph is not complete, then it possesses a minimum vertex cut of a…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group written additively with identity $0$, and $\Omega$ be an inverse closed generating subset of $G$ such that $0\notin \Omega$. We say that $ \Omega $ has the property \lq\lq{}$us$\rq\rq{} (unique summation),…

We study subsets $T$ consisting of some transpositions $(i,j)$ of the symmetric group $S_n$ on $\{1,\dots,n\}$ such that the Cayley graph $\Gamma_T:=Cay(S_n,T)$ is an integral graph, i.e., all eigenvalues of an adjacency matrix of…

The fractional perfect b-matching polytope of an undirected graph G is the polytope of all assignments of nonnegative real numbers to the edges of G such that the sum of the numbers over all edges incident to any vertex v is a prescribed…

A graph is perfectly divisible if for each of its induced subgraph $H$, $V(H)$ can be partitioned into $A$ and $B$ such that $H[A]$ is perfect and $\omega(H[B]) < \omega(H)$. A graph $G$ is perfectly weight divisible if for every positive…

The complete transposition graph is defined to be the graph whose vertices are the elements of the symmetric group $S_n$, and two vertices $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are adjacent in this graph iff there is some transposition $(i,j)$ such that…

In this paper it is shown that a complete graph with $n$ vertices has an optimal diagram, i.e., a diagram whose crossing number equals the value of Guy's formula, with a free maximal linear tree and without free hamiltonian cycles for any…

A fractional matching of a graph $G$ is a function $f$ giving each edge a number in $[0,1]$ such that $\sum_{e\in\Gamma(v)}f(e)\leq1$ for each vertex $v\in V(G)$, where $\Gamma(v)$ is the set of edges incident to $v$. The fractional…

We define a perfect coloring of a graph $G$ as a proper coloring of $G$ such that every connected induced subgraph $H$ of $G$ uses exactly $\omega(H)$ many colors where $\omega(H)$ is the clique number of $H$. A graph is perfectly colorable…

Cubelike graphs are the Cayley graphs of the elementary abelian group (Z_2)^n (e.g., the hypercube is a cubelike graph). We give conditions for perfect state transfer between two particles in quantum networks modeled by a large class of…

Perfect graphs can be described as the graphs whose stable set polytopes are defined by their non-negativity and clique inequalities (including edge inequalities). In 1975, Chv\'{a}tal defined an analogous class of t-perfect graphs, which…
