We show that for $ \eta>0 $ and sufficiently large $ n $, every 5-graph on $ n $ vertices with $\delta_{2}(H)\ge (91/216+\eta)\binom{n}{3}$ contains a Hamilton 2-cycle. This minimum 2-degree condition is asymptotically best possible.…

The parameter $q(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of distinct eigenvalues over the family of symmetric matrices described by $G$. It is shown that the minimum number of edges necessary for a connected graph $G$ to have $q(G)=2$ is…

A graph with chromatic number $k$ is called $k$-chromatic. Using computational methods, we show that the smallest triangle-free 6-chromatic graphs have at least 32 and at most 40 vertices. We also determine the complete set of all…

The circumference denoted by $c(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the length of its longest cycle. Let $\delta(G)$ and $\omega(G)$ denote the minimum degree and the clique number of a graph $G$, respectively. In [\emph{Electron. J. Combin.} 31(4)(2024)…

A vertex subset $S$ of a graph $G$ is a double dominating set of $G$ if $|N[v]\cap S|\geq 2$ for each vertex $v$ of $G$, where $N[v]$ is the set of the vertex $v$ and vertices adjacent to $v$. The double domination number of $G$, denoted by…

A graph is 1-planar if it can be drawn in the plane so that each edge is crossed by at most one another edge. In this work we prove that each 1-planar graph of minimum degree at least $3$ contains an edge with degrees of its endvertices of…

A graph on at least ${{k+1}}$ vertices is uniformly $k$-connected if each pair of its vertices is connected by $k$ and not more than $k$ independent paths. We reinvestigate a recent constructive characterization of uniformly $3$-connected…

In a graph $G=(V,E)$, a module is a vertex subset $M$ of $V$ such that every vertex outside $M$ is adjacent to all or none of $M$. For example, $\emptyset$, $\{x\}$ $(x\in V )$ and $V$ are modules of $G$, called trivial modules. A graph,…

Let $G$ be a (multi)graph of order $n$ and let $u,v$ be vertices of $G$. The maximum number of internally disjoint $u$-$v$ paths in $G$ is denoted by $\kappa_G(u,v)$, and the maximum number of edge-disjoint $u$-$v$ paths in $G$ is denoted…

We study minimum degree conditions that guarantee that an $n$-vertex graph is rigid in $\mathbb{R}^d$. For small values of $d$, we obtain a tight bound: for $d = O(\sqrt{n})$, every $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $(n+d)/2 -…

A k-tree is either a complete graph on (k+1) vertices or given a k-tree G' with n vertices, a k-tree G with (n+1) vertices can be constructed by introducing a new vertex v and picking a k-clique Q in G' and then joining each vertex u in Q.…

The 2-Decomposition Conjecture, equivalent to the 3-Decomposition Conjecture stated in 2011 by Hoffmann-Ostenhof, claims that every connected graph $G$ with vertices of degree 2 and 3, for which $G \setminus E(C)$ is disconnected for every…

Recently, the problem of establishing bounds on the edge density of 1-planar graphs, including their subclass IC-planar graphs, has received considerable attention. In 2018, Angelini et al. showed that any n-vertex bipartite IC-planar graph…

For a simple graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, the first Zagreb index and the second Zagreb index are defined as $M_1(G)=\sum_{v\in V}d(v)^2 $ and $M_2(G)=\sum_{uv\in E}d(u)d(v)$. In \cite{VGFAD}, it was shown that if a connected…

In a graph $G$, a subset of vertices $S \subseteq V(G)$ is said to be cyclable if there is a cycle containing the vertices in some order. $G$ is said to be $k$-cyclable if any subset of $k \geq 2$ vertices is cyclable. If any $k$…
