Let $G$ be a finite connected simple graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. We show that, when $G$ is not bipartite, the number of $4$-cycles contained in $G$ is at most $\binom{m-n+1}{2}$. We further provide a short combinatorial proof of…

Given a graph $F$, the random Tur\'an problem asks to determine the maximum number of edges in an $F$-free subgraph of $G_{n,p}$. Prior to this work, the only bipartite graphs $F$ with known tight bounds included certain classes of complete…

A graph $G$ with $d+1$ distinct eigenvalues is called strongly distance-regular if $G$ itself is distance-regular, and its distance-$d$ graph $G_d$ is strongly-regular. In this note we provide a spectral characterization of those…

Let $G$ be a graph. For a subset $X$ of $V(G)$, the switching $\sigma$ of $G$ is the signed graph $G^{\sigma}$ obtained from $G$ by reversing the signs of all edges between $X$ and $V(G)\setminus X$. Let $A(G^{\sigma})$ be the adjacency…

A strong edge-coloring of a graph $G$ is an assignment of colors to edges such that every color class induces a matching. We here focus on bipartite graphs whose one part is of maximum degree at most $3$ and the other part is of maximum…

Biregular bipartite graphs have been proven to have similar edge distributions to random bipartite graphs and thus have nice pseudorandomness and expansion properties. Thus it is quite desirable to find a biregular bipartite spanning…

A proper edge coloring of a graph $G$ with colors $1,2,\dots,t$ is called a \emph{cyclic interval $t$-coloring} if for each vertex $v$ of $G$ the edges incident to $v$ are colored by consecutive colors, under the condition that color $1$ is…

Let $\Gamma=(K_{n},H^-)$ be a signed complete graph whose negative edges induce a subgraph $H$. The index of $\Gamma$ is the largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. In this paper we study the index of $\Gamma$ when $H$ is a unicyclic…

Let $C_k^{\triangle}$ be the graph obtained from a cycle $C_{k}$ by adding a new vertex connecting two adjacent vertices in $C_{k}$. In this note, we obtain the graph maximizing the spectral radius among all graphs with size $m$ and…

For a graph $G$, the spectral radius of $G$ is the largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. A connected factor of $G$ is a connected spanning subgraph of $G$. For example, a spanning tree of $G$ is a 1-connected factor of $G$. Let $G$ be…

An edge-colored graph is rainbow if all its edges are colored with distinct colors. For a fixed graph $H$, the rainbow Tur\'an number $\mathrm{ex}^{\ast}(n,H)$ is defined as the maximum number of edges in a properly edge-colored graph on…

An oriented graph is a digraph that contains no 2-cycles, i.e., there is at most one arc between any two vertices. We show that every oriented graph $G$ of sufficiently large order $n$ with $\mathrm{deg}^+(x) +\mathrm{deg}^{-}(y)\geq…

A graph $G$ is well-covered if it has no isolated vertices and all the maximal independent sets have the same cardinality. If furthermore two times this cardinality is equal to $|V(G)|$, the graph $G$ is called very well-covered. The class…

An interval coloring of a graph G is a proper coloring of E(G) by positive integers such that the colors on the edges incident to any vertex are consecutive. A (3,4)-biregular bigraph is a bipartite graph in which each vertex of one part…

A graph $G$ with four or more vertices is called bicritical if the removal of any pair of distinct vertices of $G$ results in a graph with a perfect matching. A bicritical graph is minimal if the deletion of each edge results in a…

We present the first steps towards the determination of the signed graphs for which the adjacency matrix has all but at most two eigenvalues equal to 1 or -1. Here we deal with the disconnected, the bipartite and the complete signed graphs.…

For a bipartite graph $H$, its linear threshold is the smallest real number $\sigma$ such that every bipartite graph $G = (U \sqcup V, E)$ with unbalanced parts $|V| \gtrsim |U|^\sigma$ and without a copy of $H$ must have a linear number of…

In \cite{Chan95}, the authors classified the 2-extendable abelian Cayley graphs and posed the problem of characterizing all 2-extendable Cayley graphs. We first show that a connected bipartite Cayley (vertex-transitive) graph is…

A \emph{self-complementary} graph is a graph isomorphic to its complement. An isomorphism between $G$ and its complement, viewed as a permutation of $V(G)$, is then called an \emph{antimorphism}. A \emph{skew partition} of $G$ is a…

A wheel graph is a graph formed by connecting a single vertex to all vertices of a cycle. A graph is called wheel-free if it does not contain any wheel graph as a subgraph. In 2010, Nikiforov proposed a Brualdi-Solheid-Tur\'{a}n type…
