For each positive integer $n$, we define the divisibility relation graph $D_n$ whose vertex set is the set of divisors of $n$, and in which two vertices are adjacent if one is a divisor of the other. This type of graph is a special case of…

A family of sets in the plane is simple if the intersection of its any subfamily is arc-connected, and it is pierced by a line $L$ if the intersection of its any member with $L$ is a nonempty segment. It is proved that the intersection…

We consider the problem of mirror invisibility for plane sets. Given a circle and a finite number of unit vectors (defining the directions of invisibility) such that the angles between them are commensurable with $\pi$, for any $\varepsilon…

Let $X_{2k}$ be a set of $2k$ labeled points in convex position in the plane. We consider geometric non-intersecting straight-line perfect matchings of $X_{2k}$. Two such matchings, $M$ and $M'$, are disjoint compatible if they do not have…

Let $P$ be a set of $n \geq 5$ points in convex position in the plane. The path graph $G(P)$ of $P$ is an abstract graph whose vertices are non-crossing spanning paths of $P$, such that two paths are adjacent if one can be obtained from the…

If $G$ is a graph and $X\subseteq V(G)$, then $X$ is a total mutual-visibility set if every pair of vertices $x$ and $y$ of $G$ admits a shortest $x,y$-path $P$ with $V(P) \cap X \subseteq \{x,y\}$. The cardinality of a largest total…

A graph is prime (with respect to the split decomposition) if its vertex set does not admit a partition (A,B) (called a split) with |A|, |B| >= 2 such that the set of edges joining A and B induces a complete bipartite graph. We prove that…

Let $G$ be a graph and $X\subseteq V(G)$. Then $X$ is a mutual-visibility set if each pair of vertices from $X$ is connected by a geodesic with no internal vertex in $X$. The mutual-visibility number $\mu(G)$ of $G$ is the cardinality of a…

A half-square of a bipartite graph $B=(X,Y,E_B)$ has one color class of $B$ as vertex set, say $X$; two vertices are adjacent whenever they have a common neighbor in $Y$. If $G=(V,E_G)$ is the half-square of a planar bipartite graph…

Curve pseudo-visibility graphs generalize polygon and pseudo-polygon visibility graphs and form a hereditary class of graphs. We prove that every curve pseudo-visibility graph with clique number $\omega$ has chromatic number at most $3\cdot…

A class of graphs G is chi-bounded if the chromatic number of the graphs in G is bounded by some function of their clique number. We show that the class of intersection graphs of simple x-monotone curves in the plane intersecting a vertical…

A sequence $\left(x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_{2n}\right)$ of even length is a repetition if $\left(x_1,\ldots,x_n\right) = \left(x_{n+1},\ldots,x_{2n}\right)$. We prove existence of a constant $C < 10^{4 \cdot 10^7}$ such that given any planar…

The {\em disjointness graph} of a set system is a graph whose vertices are the sets, two being connected by an edge if and only if they are disjoint. It is known that the disjointness graph $G$ of any system of segments in the plane is {\em…

Visibility representation of digraphs was introduced by Axenovich, Beveridge, Hutch\-inson, and West (\emph{SIAM J. Discrete Math.} {\bf 27}(3) (2013) 1429--1449) as a natural generalization of $t$-bar visibility representation of…

A labelling of a graph is an assignment of labels to its vertex or edge sets (or both), subject to certain conditions, a well established concept. A labelling of a graph G of order n is termed a numbering when the set of integers {1,...,n}…

Two isomorphic graphs can have inequivalent spatial embeddings in 3-space. In this way, an isomorphism class of graphs contains many spatial graph types. A common way to measure the complexity of a spatial graph type is to count the minimum…

A graph is 1-planar if it can be drawn on the plane so that each edge is crossed by at most one other edge. In this note we give examples of class two 1-planar graphs with maximum degree six or seven.

Visibility graph of a polygon corresponds to its internal diagonals and boundary edges. For each vertex on the boundary of the polygon, we have a vertex in this graph and if two vertices of the polygon see each other there is an edge…

The visibility graph of a simple polygon represents visibility relations between its vertices. Knowing the correct order of the vertices around the boundary of a polygon and its visibility graph, it is an open problem to locate the vertices…

The deck of a graph $X$, $D(X)$, is defined as the multiset of all vertex-deleted subgraphs of $X$. Two graphs are said to be hypomorphic, if they have the same deck. Kelly-Ulam conjecture states that any two hypomorphic graphs on at least…
