In 1975 Hoffman and Smith showed that for a graph $G\ne\tilde{D}_n$ with an internal path, the value of the largest eigenvalue decreases strictly each time we subdivide the internal path. In this paper we extend this result to show that for…

For a graph $G$ and a hereditary property $\mathcal{P}$, let $\text{ex}(G,\mathcal{P})$ denote the maximum number of edges of a subgraph of $G$ that belongs to $\mathcal{P}$. We prove that for every non-trivial hereditary property…

We study random subgraphs of the 2-dimensional Hamming graph H(2,n), which is the Cartesian product of two complete graphs on $n$ vertices. Let $p$ be the edge probability, and write $p=\frac{1+\vep}{2(n-1)}$ for some $\vep\in \R$. In Borgs…

We consider a number $\nu_n$ of components in a random graph $G(n,p)$ with $n$ vertices, where the probability of an edge is equal to $p$. By operating with special generating functions we shows the next asymptotic relation for factorial…

For two independent Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs $\mathbf G(n,p)$, we study the maximal overlap (i.e., the number of common edges) of these two graphs over all possible vertex correspondence. We present a polynomial-time algorithm which finds a…

We generalize the classical sharp bounds for the largest eigenvalue of the normalized Laplace operator, $\frac{N}{N-1}\leq \lambda_N\leq 2$, to the case of chemical hypergraphs.

The spread of a graph is the difference between the largest and most negative eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. We show that for sufficiently large $n$, the $n$-vertex outerplanar graph with maximum spread is a vertex joined to a linear…

For a graph G, the spectral radius \r{ho}(G) of G is the largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. In this paper, we seek the relationship between \r{ho}(G) and the walks of the subgraphs of G. Especially, if G contains a complete…

A graph H is a square root of a graph G if G can be obtained from H by adding an edge between any two vertices in H that are of distance 2. The Square Root problem is that of deciding whether a given graph admits a square root. This problem…

For real $\alpha\in [0,1)$ and a hypergraph $G$, the $\alpha$-spectral radius of $G$ is the largest eigenvalue of the matrix $A_{\alpha}(G)=\alpha D(G)+(1-\alpha)A(G)$, where $A(G)$ is the adjacency matrix of $G$, which is a symmetric…
