We study set systems formed by neighborhoods in graphs of bounded twin-width. We start by proving that such graphs have linear neighborhood complexity, in analogy to previous results concerning graphs from classes with bounded expansion and…

We give a bound on the spectral radius of subgraphs of regular graphs with given order and diameter. We give a lower bound on the smallest eigenvalue of a nonbipartite regular graph of given order and diameter.

Let $\G(V,E)$ be a simple graph without loops nor multiple edges. A nonempty subset $S \subseteq V$ is said a {\em global offensive alliance} if every vertex $v \in V- S$ satisfies that $\d_S(v) \geq \d_{\overline{S}}(v)+1$. The {\em global…

This paper surveys some recent results and progress on the extremal prob- lems in a given set consisting of all simple connected graphs with the same graphic degree sequence. In particular, we study and characterize the extremal graphs…

Over the past half century, the rigidity of graphs in $R^2$ has aroused a great deal of interest. Lov\'{a}sz and Yemini (1982) proved that every $6$-connected graph is rigid in $R^2$. Jackson and Jord\'{a}n (2005) provided a similar…

This introduction to graphs and graph algebras provides the optimal bound for the number of all paths of length $k$ in a graph with $N\geq k$ edges and no loops. Our proof relies on a construction of a number of terminating algorithms that…

In this paper we explore some results concerning the spread of the line and the total graph of a given graph. In particular, it is proved that for an $(n,m)$ connected graph $G$ with $m > n \geq 4$ the spread of $G$ is less than or equal to…

Given a graph $G = (V, E)$, a non-empty set $S \subseteq V$ is a defensive alliance, if for every vertex $v \in S$, the majority of its closed neighbours are in $S$, that is, $|N_G[v] \cap S| \geq |N_G[v] \setminus S|$. The decision version…

Number types for exact computation are usually based on directed acyclic graphs. A poor graph structure can impair the efficency of their evaluation. In such cases the performance of a number type can be drastically improved by…

Signed graphs have been introduced to enrich graph structures expressing relationships between persons or general social entities, introducing edge signs to reflect the nature of the relationship, e.g., friendship or enmity. Independently,…

In this paper, we establish a tight sufficient condition for the Hamiltonicity of graphs with large minimum degree in terms of the signless Laplacian spectral radius and characterize all extremal graphs. Moreover, we prove a similar result…

We investigate numerically the scattering of waves on discrete graphs. An efficient algorithm is developed to compute the reflection and transmission (spectral) coefficients. We then explore various configurations of input and output leads,…

In this paper we study the spectrum of the random geometric graph $G(n,r)$, in a regime where the graph is dense and highly connected. In the \erdren $G(n,p)$ random graph it is well known that upon connectivity the spectrum of the…

In this paper, we initiate the study of global offensive $k$-alliances in digraphs. Given a digraph $D=(V(D),A(D))$, a global offensive $k$-alliance in a digraph $D$ is a subset $S\subseteq V(D)$ such that every vertex outside of $S$ has at…

For a simple connected graph $G$, let $D(G)$, $Tr(G)$, $D^{L}(G)$ and $D^{Q}(G)$, respectively be the distance matrix, the diagonal matrix of the vertex transmissions, distance Laplacian matrix and the distance signless Laplacian matrix of…

We introduce a quantitative measure of network bipartivity as a proportion of even to total number of closed walks in the network. Spectral graph theory is used to quantify how close to bipartite a network is and the extent to which…

The combinatorial properties of double vertex graphs has been widely studied since the 90's. However only very few results are know about the independence number of such graphs. In this paper we obtain the independence numbers of the double…

For $k\ge 1$, the $k$-independence number $\alpha_k$ of a graph is the maximum number of vertices that are mutually at distance greater than $k$. The well-known inertia and ratio bounds for the (1-)independence number $\alpha(=\alpha_1)$ of…

Let $G$ be a simple, connected and finite graph with order $n$. Denote the independence number, edge independence number and total independence number by $\alpha(G), \alpha'(G)$ and $\alpha"(G)$ respectively. This paper establishes a…

By assigning a probability measure via the spectrum of the normalized Laplacian to each graph and using L^p Wasserstein distances between probability measures, we define the corresponding spectral distances d_p on the set of all graphs.…
