Let $G$ be a graph, a dominating induced matching (DIM) of $G$ is an induced matching that dominates every edge of $G$. In this paper we show that if a graph $G$ has a DIM, then $\chi(G) \leqslant 3$. Also, it is shown that if $G$ is a…

For a finite point set $E\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and a connected graph $G$ on $k+1$ vertices, we define a $G$-framework to be a collection of $k + 1$ points in E such that the distance between a pair of points is specified if the…

We study the properties of finite graphs in which the ball of radius $r$ around each vertex induces a graph isomorphic to some fixed graph $F$. This is a natural extension of the study of regular graphs, and of the study of graphs of…

Given a directed acyclic graph (DAG) $G = (V,E)$, we say that $G$ is $(e,d)$-depth-robust (resp. $(e,d)$-edge-depth-robust) if for any set $S \subset V$ (resp. $S \subseteq E$) of at most $|S| \leq e$ nodes (resp. edges) the graph $G-S$…

Let $G$ be a simple graph of order $n\geq 2$ and let $k\in \{1,\ldots ,n-1\}$. The $k$-token graph $F_k(G)$ of $G$ is the graph whose vertices are the $k$-subsets of $V(G)$, where two vertices are adjacent in $F_k(G)$ whenever their…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite undirected graph. An edge subset $E' \subseteq E$ is a {\em dominating induced matching} ({\em d.i.m.}) in $G$ if every edge in $E$ is intersected by exactly one edge of $E'$. The \emph{Dominating Induced Matching}…

A point visibility graph is a graph induced by a set of points in the plane where the vertices of the graph represent the points in the point set and two vertices are adjacent if and only if no other point from the point set lies on the…

The \emph{interestingness score} of a directed path $\Pi = e_1, e_2, e_3, \dots, e_\ell$ in an edge-weighted directed graph $G$ is defined as $\texttt{score}(\Pi) := \sum_{i=1}^\ell w(e_i) \cdot \log{(i+1)}$, where $w(e_i)$ is the weight of…

A graph $U$ is an induced universal graph for a family $F$ of graphs if every graph in $F$ is a vertex-induced subgraph of $U$. For the family of all undirected graphs on $n$ vertices Alstrup, Kaplan, Thorup, and Zwick [STOC 2015] give an…

An injective edge-coloring $c$ of a graph $G$ is an edge-coloring such that if $e_1$, $e_2$, and $e_3$ are three consecutive edges in $G$ (they are consecutive if they form a path or a cycle of length three), then $e_1$ and $e_3$ receive…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite undirected graph without loops and multiple edges. A subset $M \subseteq E$ of edges is a {\em dominating induced matching} ({\em d.i.m.}) in $G$ if every edge in $E$ is intersected by exactly one edge of $M$. In…

A graph G is equimatchable if every maximal matching of G has the same cardinality. In this paper, we investigate equimatchable graphs such that the removal of any edge harms the equimatchability, called edge-critical equimatchable graphs…

We show that for any constant $\Delta \ge 2$, there exists a graph $G$ with $O(n^{\Delta / 2})$ vertices which contains every $n$-vertex graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ as an induced subgraph. For odd $\Delta$ this significantly improves…

The skewness of a graph G is the minimum number of edges in G whose removal results in a planar graph. By appropriately introducing a weight to each edge of a graph, we determine, among other thing, the skewness of the generalized Petersen…

An induced matching in a graph $G$ is a matching such that its end vertices also induce a matching. A $(1^{\ell}, 2^k)$-packing edge-coloring of a graph $G$ is a partition of its edge set into disjoint unions of $\ell$ matchings and $k$…

A graph is said to be globally rigid if almost all embeddings of the graph's vertices in the Euclidean plane will define a system of edge-length equations with a unique (up to isometry) solution. In 2007, Jackson, Servatius and Servatius…

An induced matching in a graph is a set of edges whose endpoints induce a $1$-regular subgraph. It is known that any $n$-vertex graph has at most $10^{n/5} \approx 1.5849^n$ maximal induced matchings, and this bound is best possible. We…
