We show that there exist k-neighborly centrally symmetric d-dimensional polytopes with 2(n+d) vertices, where k(d,n)=Theta(d/(1+log ((d+n)/d))). We also show that this bound is tight.

Let $d\geq 3$ be fixed and $G$ be a large random $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices. We show that if $n$ is large enough then the entry distribution of every almost eigenvector $v$ of $G$ (with entry sum 0 and normalized to have length…

The adjacency-diametrical matrix (AD matrix) of a connected graph $G$ with diameter $d$, denoted by $AD(G)$, is the matrix indexed by the vertices of $G$ in which the $(i,j)$-entry of $AD(G)$ is $1$ if $d_G(v_i,v_j)=1$, is $d$ if…

Let $G$ be a simple graph on $n$ vertices and $\mathcal{I}_G$ denotes parity binomial edge ideal of $G$ in the polynomial ring $S = \mathbb{K}[x_1,\ldots, x_n, y_1, \ldots, y_n].$ We obtain a lower bound for the regularity of parity…

We prove that every locally Hamiltonian graph with $n\ge 3$ vertices and possibly with multiple edges has at least $3n-6$ edges with equality if and only if it triangulates the sphere. As a consequence, every edge-maximal embedding of a…

Let $G$ be a $k$-degenerate graph of order $n.$ It is well-known that $G\ $has no more edges than $S_{n,k},$ the join of a complete graph of order $k$ and an independent set of order $n-k.$ In this note it is shown that $S_{n,k}$ is…

For a graph $G$ on $v(G)$ vertices let $m_k(G)$ denote the number of matchings of size $k$, and consider the partition function $M_{G}(\lambda)=\sum_{k=0}^nm_k(G)\lambda^k$. In this paper we show that if $G$ is a $d$--regular graph and…

We prove that the diameter of any unweighted connected graph G is O(k log n/lambda_k), for any k>= 2. Here, lambda_k is the k smallest eigenvalue of the normalized laplacian of G. This solves a problem posed by Gil Kalai.
