Given an integer $n$, let $G(n)$ be the number of integer sequences $n-1\ge d_1\ge d_2\ge\dotsb\ge d_n\ge 0$ that are the degree sequence of some graph. We show that $G(n)=(c+o(1))4^n/n^{3/4}$ for some constant $c>0$, improving both the…
Let G be a connected bipartite graph with color classes E and V and root polytope Q. Regarding the hypergraph (V,E) induced by G, we prove that its interior polynomial is equivalent to the Ehrhart polynomial of Q, which in turn is…
We study the computational limits of the following general hypothesis testing problem. Let H=H_n be an \emph{arbitrary} undirected graph on n vertices. We study the detection task between a ``null'' Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graph G(n,p)…
A decomposition of a simple graph $G$ is a pair $(G,P)$ where $P$ is a set of subgraphs of $G$, which partitions the edges of $G$ in the sense that every edge of $G$ belongs to exactly one subgraph in $P$. If the elements of $P$ are induced…
A (3,4)-biregular bigraph G is a bipartite graph where all vertices in one part have degree 3 and all vertices in the other part have degree 4. A path factor of G is a spanning subgraph whose components are nontrivial paths. We prove that a…
We prove that any graph $G$ of minimum degree greater than $2k^2-1$ has a $(k+1)$-connected induced subgraph $H$ such that the number of vertices of $H$ that have neighbors outside of $H$ is at most $2k^2-1$. This generalizes a classical…
We propose a Nordhaus-Gaddum conjecture for $q(G)$, the minimum number of distinct eigenvalues of a symmetric matrix corresponding to a graph $G$: for every graph $G$ excluding four exceptions, we conjecture that $q(G)+q(G^c)\le |G|+2$,…
Let $G$ be a 2-connected $n$-vertex graph and $N_s(G)$ be the total number of $s$-cliques in $G$. Let $k\ge 4$ and $s\ge 2$ be integers. In this paper, we show that if $G$ has an edge $e$ which is not on any cycle of length at least $k$,…
Let $q$ be a positve integer, and $G$ be a $q$-partite simple graph on $qn$ vertices, with $n$ vertices in each vertex class. Let $\delta={k_q \over k_q+1}$, where $k_q=q+O(\log{q})$. If each vertex of $G$ is adjacent to at least $\delta n$…
A {\em cyclic graph} is a graph with at each vertex a cyclic order of the edges incident with it specified. We characterize which real-valued functions on the collection of cubic cyclic graphs are partition functions of a real vertex model…
The $M$-polynomial of a graph $G$ is defined as $\sum_{i\le j} m_{i,j}(G)x^iy^j$, where $m_{i,j}(G)$, $i,j\ge 1$, is the number of edges $uv$ of $G$ such that $\{d_v(G), d_u(G)\} = \{i,j\}$. Knowing the $M$-polynomial, formulas for bond…
This paper defines, for each graph $G$, a flag vector $fG$. The flag vectors of the graphs on $n$ vertices span a space whose dimension is $p(n)$, the number of partitions on $n$. The analogy with convex polytopes indicates that the linear…
The $k$th power of a graph $G$, denoted $G^k$, has the same vertex set as $G$, and two vertices are adjacent in $G^k$ if and only if there exists a path between them in $G$ of length at most $k$. A $K_r$-factor in a graph is a spanning…
We call a finite undirected graph minimally k-matchable if it has at least k distinct perfect matchings but deleting any edge results in a graph which has not. An odd subdivision of some graph G is any graph obtained by replacing every edge…
We study the model $G_\alpha\cup G(n,p)$ of randomly perturbed dense graphs, where $G_\alpha$ is any $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $\alpha n$ and $G(n,p)$ is the binomial random graph. We introduce a general approach for…
We consider graph classes $\mathcal G$ in which every graph has components in a class $\mathcal{C}$ of connected graphs. We provide a framework for the asymptotic study of $\lvert\mathcal{G}_{n,N}\rvert$, the number of graphs in…

Inspired by a famous characterization of perfect graphs due to Lov\'{a}sz, we define a graph $G$ to be sum-perfect if for every induced subgraph $H$ of $G$, $\alpha(H) + \omega(H) \geq |V(H)|$. (Here $\alpha$ and $\omega$ denote the…
The circumference denoted by $c(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the length of its longest cycle. Let $\delta(G)$ and $\omega(G)$ denote the minimum degree and the clique number of a graph $G$, respectively. In [\emph{Electron. J. Combin.} 31(4)(2024)…
