We consider the problem of classifying those graphs that arise as an undirected square of an oriented graph by generalising the notion of quasi-transitive directed graphs to mixed graphs. We fully classify those graphs of maximum degree…

In this note, we give answers to three questions from the paper [A. Das, Triameter of graphs, Discuss. Math. Graph Theory, 41 (2021), 601--616]. Namely, we obtain a tight lower bound for the triameter of trees in terms of order and number…

We show that there exists an outerplanar graph on $O(n^{c})$ vertices for $c = \log_2(3+\sqrt{10}) \approx 2.623$ that contains every tree on $n$ vertices as a subgraph. This extends a result of Chung and Graham from 1983 who showed that…

A graph is path-pairable if for any pairing of its vertices there exist edge-disjoint paths joining the vertices in each pair. We investigate the behaviour of the maximum degree in path-pairable planar graphs. We show that any $n$-vertex…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of orientations with given out-degree (score) sequence for a graph $G$. The graph $G$ is assumed to have average degrees at least $n^{1/3 + \varepsilon}$ for some $\varepsilon > 0$, and to have…

A uniformly random graph on $n$ vertices with a fixed degree sequence, obeying a $\gamma$ subpower law, is studied. It is shown that, for $\gamma>3$, in a subcritical phase with high probability the largest component size does not exceed…

Let $X_1,X_2,...$ be an infinite sequence of i.i.d. random vectors distributed exponentially with parameter $\lam .$ For each $y$ and $n\geq 1,$ form a graph $G_n(y)$ with vertex set $V_n = \{X_1,...,X_n\},$ two vertices are connected if…

A graph $G$ is said to be $\mathcal H(n,\Delta)$-universal if it contains every graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree at most $\Delta$. It is known that for any $\varepsilon > 0$ and any natural number $\Delta$ there exists $c > 0$ such…

The study of asymptotic minimum degree thresholds that force matchings and tilings in hypergraphs is a lively area of research in combinatorics. A key breakthrough in this area was a result of H\`{a}n, Person and Schacht who proved that the…

A well-known conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and S\'os states that every graph with average degree exceeding $m-1$ contains every tree with $m$ edges as a subgraph. We propose a variant of this conjecture, which states that every graph of maximum…

We consider the problem of finding the smallest graph that contains two input trees each with at most $n$ vertices preserving their distances. In other words, we look for an isometric-universal graph with the minimum number of vertices for…

In 1975 Bollob\'{a}s, Erd\H{o}s, and Szemer\'{e}di asked what minimum degree guarantees an octahedral subgraph $K_3(2)$ in any tripartite graph $G$ with $n$ vertices in each vertex class. We show that $\delta(G)\geq n+2n^{\frac{5}{6}}$…

In this paper, we asymptotically enumerate graphs with a given degree sequence d=(d_1,...,d_n) satisfying restrictions designed to permit heavy-tailed sequences in the sparse case (i.e. where the average degree is rather small). Our general…

The degree distribution of an ordered tree $T$ with $n$ nodes is $\vec{n} = (n_0,\ldots,n_{n-1})$, where $n_i$ is the number of nodes in $T$ with $i$ children. Let $\mathcal{N}(\vec{n})$ be the number of trees with degree distribution…

In 1960, Ghouila-Houri extended Dirac's theorem to directed graphs by proving that if D is a directed graph on n vertices with minimum out-degree and in-degree at least n/2 (i.e. minimum semi-degree at least n/2), then D contains a directed…
