A graph is circle if its vertices are in correspondence with a family of chords in a circle in such a way that every two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if the corresponding chords have nonempty intersection. Even though there…
Let $F$ and $G$ be simple finite oriented graphs (without symmetric arcs). A graph $G$ is called $F$-irregular if any two distinct vertices in $G$ belong to a different number of subgraphs of $G$ isomorphic to $F$. In this paper, we…
The visualization of any graph plays important role in various aspects, such as graph drawing software. Complex systems (like large databases or networks) that have a graph structure should be properly visualized in order to avoid…
An odd wheel graph is a graph formed by connecting a new vertex to all vertices of an odd cycle. We answer a question of Rosenfeld and Le by showing that odd wheels cannot be drawn in the plane such that the lengths of the edges are odd…
The pseudoinverse of a matrix, a generalized notion of the inverse, is of fundamental importance in linear algebra and, thereby, in many different fields. Despite its proven existence, an algorithmic approach is typically necessary to…
Dotted graphs are certain finite graphs with vertices of degree 2 called dots in the $xy$-plane $\mathbb{R}^2$, and a dotted graph is said to be admissible if it is associated with a lattice polytope in $\mathbb{R}^2$ each of whose edge is…
This is a revision of the paper archived previously on August 22, 2002. It corrects a mistake in Sec. 8 concerning eccentricities of graphs. From any given sequence of finite or infinite graphs, a nonstandard graph is constructed. The…
An isomorphism between two graphs is a bijection between their vertices that preserves the edges. We consider the problem of determining whether two finite undirected weighted graphs are isomorphic, and finding an isomorphism relating them…
In this paper, partial inverse problems for the quadratic pencil of Sturm-Liouville operators on a graph with a loop were studied. These problems consist in recovering the pencil coefficients on one edge of the graph (a boundary edge or the…
An ortho-radial grid is described by concentric circles and straight-line spokes emanating from the circles' center. An ortho-radial drawing is the analog of an orthogonal drawing on an ortho-radial grid. Such a drawing has an unbounded…
Let H = (H,V) be a hypergraph with edge set H and vertex set V. Then hypergraph H is invertible iff there exists a permutation pi of V such that for all E belongs to H(edges) intersection of(pi(E) and E)=0. H is invertibility critical if H…
A graph is said to be a segment graph if its vertices can be mapped to line segments in the plane such that two vertices have an edge between them if and only if their corresponding line segments intersect. Kratochv\'{i}l and Kub\v{e}na…
A graph is pseudo-outerplanar if each of its blocks has an embedding in the plane so that the vertices lie on a fixed circle and the edges lie inside the disk of this circle with each of them crossing at most one another. It is proved that…
The diagonal entries of pseudoinverse of the Laplacian matrix of a graph appear in many important practical applications, since they contain much information of the graph and many relevant quantities can be expressed in terms of them, such…
The graph reconstruction conjecture states that all graphs on at least three vertices are determined up to isomorphism by their deck. In this paper, a general framework for this problem is proposed to simply explain the reconstruction of…
We investigate straight-line drawings of topological graphs that consist of a planar graph plus one edge, also called almost-planar graphs. We present a characterization of such graphs that admit a straight-line drawing. The…
In this paper we study the oriented vertex and arc coloring problem on edge series-parallel digraphs (esp-digraphs) which are related to the well known series-parallel graphs. Series-parallel graphs are graphs with two distinguished…
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…
We consider the problem of reconstructing an undirected graph $G$ on $n$ vertices given multiple random noisy subgraphs or "traces". Specifically, a trace is generated by sampling each vertex with probability $p_v$, then taking the…
A graph is near-planar if it can be obtained from a planar graph by adding an edge. We show the surprising fact that it is NP-hard to compute the crossing number of near-planar graphs. A graph is 1-planar if it has a drawing where every…
