Given a graph G, a subset M of V (G) is a module of G if for each v \in V (G) \diagdownM, v is adjacent to all the elements of M or to none of them. For instance, V(G), \varnothing and {v} (v \in V(G)) are modules of G called trivial. Given…
Chordal graphs are the graphs in which every cycle of length at least four has a chord. A set $S$ is a vertex separator for vertices $a$ and $b$ if the removal of $S$ of the graph separates $a$ and $b$ into distinct connected components. A…
A $k$-graph $\mathcal{G}$ is asymmetric if there does not exist an automorphism on $\mathcal{G}$ other than the identity, and $\mathcal{G}$ is called minimal asymmetric if it is asymmetric but every non-trivial induced sub-hypergraph of…
A graph $G$ of order $n$ is called edge-pancyclic if, for every integer $k$ with $3 \leq k \leq n$, every edge of $G$ lies in a cycle of length $k$. Determining the minimum size $f(n)$ of a simple edge-pancyclic graph with $n$ vertices…
Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices, its adjacency matrix and degree diagonal matrix are denoted by $A(G)$ and $D(G)$, respectively. In 2017, Nikiforov \cite{0007} introduced the matrix $A_{\alpha}(G)=\alpha D(G)+(1-\alpha)A(G)$ for…
A set $S\subseteq V$ is \textit{independent} in a graph $G=\left( V,E\right) $ if no two vertices from $S$ are adjacent. The \textit{independence number} $\alpha(G)$ is the cardinality of a maximum independent set, while $\mu(G)$ is the…
We show that if $G$ is a graph on $n$ vertices, with all degrees comparable to some $d = d(n)$, and without a sparse cut, for a suitably chosen notion of sparseness, then it contains a complete minor of order \[ \Omega\left( \sqrt{\frac{n…
An isolating set in a graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices such that removing $S$ and its neighborhood leaves no edge. The isolation number $\iota(G)$ of $G$ (also known as the vertex-edge domination number) is the minimum size among all…
A digraph $D$ is an oriented graph if $D$ does not have a pair of opposite arcs. The degree of a vertex $v$ of $D$ is the sum of the in-degree and out-degree of $v.$ Let $fvs(D)$ be the minimum number of vertices whose deletion from $D$…
The distinguishing number (index) $D(G)$ ($D'(G)$) of a graph $G$ is the least integer $d$ such that $G$ has an vertex labeling (edge labeling) with $d$ labels that is preserved only by a trivial automorphism. For any $n \in \mathbb{N}$,…
Let $G$ be a finite group, and let ${\rm{cd}}(G)$ denote the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of $G$. The degree graph $\Delta(G)$ of $G$ is defined as the simple undirected graph whose vertex set ${\rm{V}}(G)$ consists…
A nut graph is a singular graph with one-dimensional kernel and corresponding eigenverctor with no zero elements. The problem of determining the orders $n$ for which $d$-regular nut graphs exist was recently posed by Gauci, Pisanski and…
We call a finite undirected graph minimally k-matchable if it has at least k distinct perfect matchings but deleting any edge results in a graph which has not. An odd subdivision of some graph G is any graph obtained by replacing every edge…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A dominating set of $G$ is a subset $S\subseteq V$ such that every vertex not in $S$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $S$. The cardinality of a smallest dominating set of $G$, denoted by $\gamma(G)$, is…
A $k$-matching in a graph $G$ is defined as a function $f:E(G) \rightarrow \{0,1,\ldots,k\}$ satisfying $\sum_{e\in E_G(v)} f(e)$ $\leq k$ for each vertex $v\in V(G)$, where $E_G(v)$ denotes the set of edges incident to $v$ in $G$. For…
Given $k\ge 1$, a $k$-proper partition of a graph $G$ is a partition ${\mathcal P}$ of $V(G)$ such that each part $P$ of ${\mathcal P}$ induces a $k$-connected subgraph of $G$. We prove that if $G$ is a graph of order $n$ such that…
An $n$-tuple $D=(d(1),\dots,d(n))$ is a \emph{feasible degree sequence} if there is a graph on $\{1,\dots,n\}$ such that $i$ has degree $d(i)$. Any such graph will have $m=\sum_{i=1}^n d(i)/2$ edges. Letting $G(D)$ be a graph chosen…
We say that a first order formula $\Phi$ defines a graph $G$ if $\Phi$ is true on $G$ and false on every graph $G'$ non-isomorphic with $G$. Let $D(G)$ be the minimal quantifier rank of a such formula. We prove that, if $G$ is a tree of…
A graph is called odd (respectively, even) if every vertex has odd (respectively, even) degree. Gallai proved that every graph can be partitioned into two even induced subgraphs, or into an odd and an even induced subgraph. We refer to a…
A cograph is a simple graph which contains no path on 4 vertices as an induced subgraph. The vicinal preorder on the vertex set of a graph is defined in terms of inclusions among the neighborhoods of vertices. The minimum number of chains…
