Let $G$ be a connected graph on $n$ vertices and at most $n(1+\epsilon)$ edges with bounded maximum degree, and $F$ a graph on $n$ vertices with minimum degree at least $n-k$, where $\epsilon$ is a constant depending on $k$. In this paper,…

Let $k$ be a positive integer and let $G$ be a simple graph of order $n$ with minimum degree $\delta$. A graph $G$ is said to have property $P(k, d)$ if it contains $k$ edge-disjoint spanning trees and an additional forest $F$ with edge…

The linear arboricity of a graph $G$, denoted by $\text{la}(G)$, is the minimum number of edge-disjoint linear forests (i.e. forests in which every connected component is a path) in $G$ whose union covers all the edges of $G$. A famous…

This paper investigates topological indices for the greedy tree $\mathcal{T}_\mathscr{D}$ associated with a graphic degree sequence $\mathscr{D} = (d_1 \geqslant d_2 \geqslant \dots \geqslant d_n)$ of a tree. A fundamental challenge in the…

A spanning tree T in a finite planar connected graph G determines a dual spanning tree T* in the dual graph G such that T and T* do not intersect. We show that it is not always possible to find T in G, such that the diameters of T and T*…

Consider a uniformly sampled random $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices. If $d$ is fixed and $n$ goes to $\infty$ then we can relate typical (large probability) properties of such random graph to a family of invariant random processes (called…

In the context of algorithm theory, various studies have been conducted on spanning trees with desirable properties. In this paper, we consider the \textsc{Minimum Cover Spanning Tree} problem (MCST for short). Given a graph $G$ and a…

The degree-based entropy of a graph is defined as the Shannon entropy based on the information functional that associates the vertices of the graph with the corresponding degrees. In this paper, we study extremal problems of finding the…

An extension of the well-known Szeged index was introduced recently, named as weighted Szeged index ($\textrm{sz}(G)$). This paper is devoted to characterizing the extremal trees and graphs of this new topological invariant. In particular,…

In 1993 van den Berg and Kesten proved a strict monotonicity theorem for first passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d \ge 2$: given two probability measures $\nu$ and $\tilde{\nu}$ with finite mean, if $\tilde{\nu}$ is strictly more…

We show that a one-ended, locally finite, measurable graph on a standard probability space admits a measurable one-ended spanning subtree if and only if it is measure-hyperfinite. This answers a question posed by Bowen, Poulin, and Zomback…

The Sinai billiard map $T$ on the two-torus, i.e., the periodic Lorentz gas, is a discontinuous map. Assuming finite horizon, we propose a definition $h_*$ for the topological entropy of $T$. We prove that $h_*$ is not smaller than the…
