A vertex $v$ is called an AR-vertex, if $v$ has distinct edge weight sums for each distinct subset of edges incident on $v$. i.e., if $\{x_1,x_2,\dots,x_k\}$ are the edge labels of the edges incident on $v$, then the $2^k$ subset sums are…
In this paper, we give a more direct proof of the results by Clair and Mokhtari-Sharghi on the zeta functions of periodic graphs. In particular, using appropriate operator-algebraic techniques, we establish a determinant formula in this…
A connected graph $G$ is of QE class if it admits a quadratic embedding in a Hilbert space, or equivalently if the distance matrix is conditionally negative definite, or equivalently if the quadratic embedding constant $\mathrm{QEC}(G)$ is…
An oriented graph is said positively multiplicative when its adjacency matrix $A$ embeds in a matrix algebra admitting a basis $\mathsf{B}$ with nonnegative structure constants in which the matrix of the multiplication by $A$ coincides with…
For a graph $G$, let $odd(G)$ and $\omega(G)$ denote the number of odd components and the number of components of $G$, respectively. Then it is well-known that $G$ has a 1-factor if and only if $odd(G-S)\le |S|$ for all $S\subset V(G)$.…
An integer additive set-indexer is defined as an injective function $f:V(G)\rightarrow 2^{\mathbb{N}_0}$ such that the induced function $g_f:E(G) \rightarrow 2^{\mathbb{N}_0}$ defined by $g_f (uv) = f(u)+ f(v)$ is also injective. An IASI…
An antimagic labeling for a graph $G$ with $m$ edges is a bijection $f: E(G) \to \{1, 2, \dots, m\}$ so that $\phi_f(u) \neq \phi_f(v)$ holds for any pair of distinct vertices $u, v \in V(G)$, where $\phi_f(x) = \sum_{x \in e} f(e)$. A…
Let $\gamma(G)$ denote the domination number of a graph $G$. A vertex $v\in V(G)$ is called a \emph{critical vertex} of $G$ if $\gamma(G-v)=\gamma(G)-1$. A graph is called \emph{vertex-critical} if every vertex of it is critical. In this…
Let $G$ be a graph. A good function is a function $f:V(G)\rightarrow \{-1,1\}$, satisfying $f(N(v))\geq 1$, for each $v\in V(G)$, where $ N(v)=\{u\in V(G)\, |\, uv\in E(G) \} $ and $f(S) = \sum_{u\in S} f(u)$ for every $S \subseteq V(G) $.…
The closure of a graph $G$ is the graph $G^*$ obtained from $G$ by repeatedly adding edges between pairs of non-adjacent vertices whose degree sum is at least $n$, where $n$ is the number of vertices of $G$. The well-known Closure Lemma…
A set $D$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is isolating if the set of vertices not in $D$ or with no neighbor in $D$ is independent. The isolation number of $G$, denoted by $\iota (G)$, is the minimum cardinality of an isolating set of $G$. It is…
Let $\mathbb{N}_0$ denote the set of all non-negative integers and $\mathcal{P}(\mathbb{N}_0)$ be its power set. An integer additive set-indexer (IASI) of a graph $G$ is an injective function $f:V(G)\to \mathcal{P}(\mathbb{N}_0)$ such that…
Zero forcing is an iterative graph coloring process where at each discrete time step, a colored vertex with a single uncolored neighbor forces that neighbor to become colored. The zero forcing number of a graph is the cardinality of the…
We introduce a generalized Bartholdi zeta function for simple graphs with bounded degree. This zeta function is a generalization of both the Bartholdi zeta function which was introduced by L.~Bartholdi and the Ihara zeta function which was…
We introduce a ``non-orientable'' variation of Serre's definition of a graph, which we call an abstract isogeny graph. These objects capture the combinatorics of the graphs $G(p,\ell,H)$, the $\ell$-isogeny graphs of supersingular elliptic…
For a set $\mathcal{H}$ of connected graphs, a spanning subgraph $H$ of $G$ is called an $\mathcal{H}$-factor of $G$ if each component of $H$ is isomorphic to an element of $\mathcal{H}$. A graph $G$ is called an $\mathcal{H}$-factor…
Let $G = (V,E)$ be a connected simple graph. A bijection $f: E \rightarrow \{1,2,\ldots,|E|\}$ is called a local antimagic labeling of $G$ if $f^+(u) \neq f^+(v)$ holds for any two adjacent vertices $u$ and $v$, where $f^+(u) = \sum_{e\in…
We put forward the concept of measure graphs. These are (possibly uncountable) graphs equipped with an action of a groupoid and a measure invariant under this action. Examples include finite graphs, periodic graphs, graphings and…
A graceful difference labeling (gdl for short) of a directed graph G with vertex set V is a bijection f between V and {1,...,|V|} such that, when each arc uv is assigned the difference label f(v)-f(u), the resulting arc labels are distinct.…
Using the stratifications of Deligne-Mumford moduli spaces $\overline{\mathcal M}_{g,n}$ indexed by stable graphs, we introduce a partially ordered set of stable graphs by defining a partial ordering on the set of connected stable graphs of…
