An internal partition of an $n$-vertex graph $G=(V,E)$ is a partition of $V$ such that every vertex has at least as many neighbors in its own part as in the other part. It has been conjectured that every $d$-regular graph with $n>N(d)$…

An internal or friendly partition of a vertex set $V(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a partition to two nonempty sets $A\cup B$ such that every vertex has at least as many neighbours in its own class as in the other one. Motivated by Diwan's…

If a vertex $v$ in a graph $G$ has degree larger than the average of the degrees of its neighbors, we call it a groupie in $G$. In the current work, we study the behavior of groupie in random multipartite graphs with the link probability…

Given a (directed) graph G=(V,A), a subset X of V is an interval of G provided that for any a, b\in X and x\in V-X, (a,x)\in A if and only if (b,x)\in A and (x,a)\in A if and only if (x,b)\in A. For example, \emptyset, \{x\} (x \in V) and V…

Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, a subset $X$ of $V$ is an interval of $G$ provided that for any $a, b\in X$ and $ x\in V \setminus X$, $\{a,x\}\in E$ if and only if $\{b,x\}\in E$. For example, $\emptyset$, $\{x\}(x\in V)$ and $V$ are intervals of…

A {\it vertex-ordered} graph is a graph equipped with a linear ordering of its vertices. A pair of independent edges in an ordered graph can exhibit one of the following three patterns: separated, nested or crossing. We say a pair of…

Interval graphs are intersection graphs of closed intervals of the real-line. The well-known computational problem, called recognition, asks whether an input graph $G$ can be represented by closed intervals, i.e., whether $G$ is an interval…

A simple $n$-vertex graph has a prime vertex labeling if the vertices can be injectively labeled with the integers $1, 2, 3,\ldots, n$ such that adjacent vertices have relatively prime labels. We will present previously unknown prime vertex…

We characterize the bipartite graphs that minimize the (first-degree based) entropy, among all bipartite graphs of given size, or given size and (upper bound on the) order. The extremal graphs turn out to be complete bipartite graphs, or…

Let $G$ be a group. We define the coprime graph of subgroups of $G$, denoted by $\mathcal P(G)$, is a graph whose vertex set is the set of all proper subgroups of $G$, and two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if the order of the…

Let $G$ be a finite, simple, and undirected graph of order $n$ and average degree $d$. Up to terms of smaller order, we characterize the minimal intervals $I$ containing $d$ that are guaranteed to contain some vertex degree. In particular,…

A mixed graph has a set of vertices, a set of undirected egdes, and a set of directed arcs. A proper coloring of a mixed graph $G$ is a function $c$ that assigns to each vertex in $G$ a positive integer such that, for each edge $uv$ in $G$,…

We propose bipartite analogues of comparability and cocomparability graphs. Surprizingly, the two classes coincide. We call these bipartite graphs cocomparability bigraphs. We characterize cocomparability bigraphs in terms of vertex…

In a directed graph, the imbalance of a vertex is its outdegree minus its indegree. We characterize the sequences that are realizable as the sequence of imbalances of a simple directed graph. Moreover, a realization of a realizable sequence…

Simple drawings are drawings of graphs in which any two edges intersect at most once (either at a common endpoint or a proper crossing), and no edge intersects itself. We analyze several characteristics of simple drawings of complete…

In this paper we generalise the notion of visibility from a point in an integer lattice to the setting of graph theory. For a vertex $x$ of a connected graph $G$, we say that a set $S \subseteq V(G)$ is an \emph{$x$-position set} if for any…
