We construct asymptotically optimal adjacency labelling schemes for every hereditary class containing $2^{\Omega(n^2)}$ $n$-vertex graphs as $n\to \infty$. This regime contains many classes of interest, for instance perfect graphs or…
The zero-divisor graph of a finite commutative ring with unity is the graph whose vertex set is the set of zero-divisors in the ring, with $a$ and $b$ adjacent if $ab=0$. We show that the class of zero-divisor graphs is universal, in the…
Let ${\mathbb{D}}^{m\times n}$ be the set of $m\times n$ matrices over a division ring $\mathbb{D}$. Two matrices $A,B\in {\mathbb{D}}^{m\times n}$ are adjacent if ${\rm rank}(A-B)=1$. By the adjacency, ${\mathbb{D}}^{m\times n}$ is a…
The paper constructs an infinite sequence of strongly regular directed graphs. The construction is based on representing adjacency matrices as block matrices composed of circulant blocks, together with the use of a compactification…
For any graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and for any {\em symmetric} subgraph $J$ of $K_{n,n}$, we construct an infinite sequence of graphs based on the pair $(G,J)$. The First graph in the sequence is $G$, then at each stage replacing every…
A new class of simple symmetric digraphs called $\mathcal{D}$ is defined and studied here. Any digraph in $\mathcal{D}$ has the property that each non-pendant vertex is adjacent to at least one pendant vertex. A graph theoretical…
Mining discriminative features for graph data has attracted much attention in recent years due to its important role in constructing graph classifiers, generating graph indices, etc. Most measurement of interestingness of discriminative…
A design is a finite set of points in a space on which every "simple" functions averages to its global mean. Illustrative examples of simple functions are low-degree polynomials on the Euclidean sphere or on the Hamming cube. We prove lower…
Let $G$ be a graph and $A$ be its adjacency matrix. A graph $G$ is invertible if its adjacency matrix $A$ is invertible and the inverse of $G$ is a weighted graph with adjacency matrix $A^{-1}$. A signed graph $(G,\sigma)$ is a weighted…
A finite group is called $\psi$-divisible iff $\psi(H)|\psi(G)$ for any subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$. Here, $\psi(G)$ is the sum of element orders of $G$. For now, the only known examples of such groups are the cyclic ones of…
Let $p$ be an odd prime. In this paper we provide a construction which gives four non-Schurian association schemes for every $p\geq 5$ and two for $p=3$. This construction is explained using incidences between points and lines of a biaffine…
When G denotes a graph, the unlabeled subgraph obtained by deleting a vertex from G is called a card of G and the collection of all cards of G is the deck of G. A graph having the same deck as G is called a hypomorph of G. A graph is called…
The distance matrix of a connected graph is the symmetric matrix with columns and rows indexed by the vertices and entries that are the pairwise distances between the corresponding vertices. We give a construction for graphs which differ in…
We examine indivisibility for classes of graphs. We show that the class of hereditarily $\alpha$-sparse graphs is indivisible if and only if $\alpha > 2$. Additionally, we show that the following classes of graphs are indivisible: perfect…
A signed directed graph is a graph with sign and direction information on the edges. Even though signed directed graphs are more informative than unsigned or undirected graphs, they are more complicated to analyze and have received less…
We deal with germs of diffeomorphisms that are reversible under an involution. We establish that this condition implies that, in general, both the family of reversing symmetries and the group of symmetries are not finite, in contrast with…
Flexible network design deals with building a network that guarantees some connectivity requirements between its vertices, even when some of its elements (like vertices or edges) fail. In particular, the set of edges (resp. vertices) of a…
The WL-rank of a digraph $\Gamma$ is defined to be the rank of the coherent configuration of $\Gamma$. We construct a new infinite family of strictly Deza Cayley graphs for which the WL-rank is equal to the number of vertices. The graphs…
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 polytope is called indecomposable if it cannot be expressed nontrivially as a Minkowski sum of other polytopes. Since Gale introduced the concept in 1954, several increasingly strong criteria have been developed to characterize…
