Signed graphs have their edges labeled either as positive or negative. Here we introduce two types of signed distance matrix for signed graphs. We characterize balance in signed graphs using these matrices and we obtain explicit formulae…

In descending generality I survey: five partial orderings of graphs, the induced-subgraph ordering, and examples like perfect, threshold, and mock threshold graphs. The emphasis is on how the induced subgraph ordering differs from other…

In this paper, we study different forbidden subgraph characterizations of the prime-order element graph $\Gamma(G)$ defined on a finite group $G$. Its set of vertices is the group $G$ and two vertices $x,y \in G$ are adjacent if the order…

A signed graph is a graph together with an assignment of signs to the edges. A closed walk in a signed graph is said to be positive (negative) if it has an even (odd) number of negative edges, counting repetition. Recognizing the signs of…

In this paper we introduce a class of hypergraphs that we call chordal. We also extend the definition of triangulated hypergraphs, given in \cite{VT}, so that a triangulated hypergraph, according to our definition, is a natural…

A graph is locally chordal if each of its small-radius balls is chordal. In an earlier work [AKK25], the authors and Kobler proved that locally chordal graphs can be characterized by having chordal local covers, by forbidding short cycles…

We prove that the class of chordal graphs is easily testable in the following sense. There exists a constant $c>0$ such that, if adding/removing at most $\epsilon n^2$ edges to a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices does not make it chordal, then a…

A graph is chordal if it does not contain an induced cycle of length greater than three. We determine the minimum size of a chordal graph with given order and minimum degree. In doing so, we have discovered interesting properties of chordal…

The mirror (or bipartite complement) mir(B) of a bipartite graph B=(X,Y,E) has the same color classes X and Y as B, and two vertices x in X and y in Y are adjacent in mir(B) if and only if xy is not in E. A bipartite graph is chordal…

A hole in a graph is an induced subgraph which is a cycle of length at least four. A graph is chordal if it contains no holes. Following McKee and Scheinerman (1993), we define the chordality of a graph $G$ to be the minimum number of…

Strongly chordal graphs are a subclass of chordal graphs. The interest in this subclass stems from the fact that many problems which are NP-complete for chordal graphs are solvable in polynomial time for this subclass. However, we are not…

The complexity of the list homomorphism problem for signed graphs appears difficult to classify. Existing results focus on special classes of signed graphs, such as trees and reflexive signed graphs. Irreflexive signed graphs are in a…

We call a graph $G$ pancyclic if it contains at least one cycle of every possible length $m$, for $3\le m\le |V(G)|$. In this paper, we define a new property called chorded pancyclicity. We explore forbidden subgraphs in claw-free graphs…

Cover-Incomparability graphs (C-I graphs) are an interesting class of graphs from posets. A C-I graph is a graph from a poset $P=(V,\le)$ with vertex set $V$, and the edge-set is the union of edge sets of the cover graph and the…

When $\mathcal{C}$ is a chordal clutter in the sense of Woodroofe or Emtander, we show that the complement clutter is edgewise strongly shellable. When $\mathcal{C}$ is indeed a finite simple graph, we study various characterizations of…

When we study forbidden subgraph conditions guaranteeing graphs to have some properties, a claw (or $K_{1,3}$) frequently appears as one of forbidden subgraphs. Recently, Furuya and Tsuchiya compared two classes generated by different…

We study property testing of (di)graph properties in bounded-degree graph models. The study of graph properties in bounded-degree models is one of the focal directions of research in property testing in the last 15 years. However, despite…

Babel has shown that for an extended class of chordal (6, 3) graphs the coarsest regular simplicial partition is equivalent to the graph's automorphism partition. We give a reversible transformation for any graph to one of these graph by…

It was noted already in the 90s that many classic graph classes, such as interval, chordal, and bipartite graphs, can be characterized by the existence of an ordering of the vertices avoiding some ordered subgraphs, called patterns. Very…
