This paper extends the scenario of the Four Color Theorem in the following way. Let H(d,k) be the set of all k-uniform hypergraphs that can be (linearly) embedded into R^d. We investigate lower and upper bounds on the maximum (weak and…

Let $G$ be an simple graph of order $n$ whose adjacency eigenvalues are $\lambda_1\ge\dots\ge\lambda_n$. The HL--index of $G$ is defined to be $R(G)= \max\{|\lambda_{h}|, |\lambda_{l}|\}$ with $h=\left\lfloor\frac{n+1}{2}\right\rfloor$ and…

Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices and $(H,+)$ be an abelian group. What is the minimum size ${\sf S}_H(G)$ of the set of all sums $A(u)+A(v)$ over all injections $A:V(G)\to H$? In 2012, the first author, Angel, the second author, and…

The Fibonacci dimension fdim(G) of a graph G is introduced as the smallest integer f such that G admits an isometric embedding into Gamma_f, the f-dimensional Fibonacci cube. We give bounds on the Fibonacci dimension of a graph in terms of…

The harmonic index of a graph $G$, is defined as the sum of weights $\frac{2}{d(u)+d(v)}$ of all edges $uv$ of $G$, where $d(u)$ is the degree of the vertex $u$ in $G$. In this paper we find the minimum harmonic index of bicyclic graph of…

Some graphs admit drawings in the Euclidean k-space in such a (natu- ral) way, that edges are represented as line segments of unit length. Such drawings will be called k dimensional unit distance representations. When two non-adjacent…

We prove that if G is a graph without 3-cycles and 4-cycles, then the discrete cubical homology of G is trivial in dimension d, for all d\ge 2. We also construct a sequence { G_d } of graphs such that this homology is non-trivial in…

The eccentric connectivity index of a graph $G$, denoted by $\xi^{c}(G)$, defined as $\xi^{c}(G)$ = $\sum_{v \in V(G)}\epsilon(v) \cdot d(v)$, where $\epsilon(v)$ and $d(v)$ denotes the eccentricity and degree of a vertex $v$ in a graph…

A visibility representation of a graph $G$ is an assignment of the vertices of $G$ to geometric objects such that vertices are adjacent if and only if their corresponding objects are "visible" each other, that is, there is an uninterrupted…

Let $G$ be a graph, and let $u$, $v$, and $w$ be vertices of $G$. If the distance between $u$ and $w$ does not equal the distance between $v$ and $w$, then $w$ is said to resolve $u$ and $v$. The metric dimension of $G$, denoted $\beta(G)$,…

By extending the definition of boxicity, we extend a Helly-type result given by Danzer and Grumbaum on 2-piercings of family of boxes in $d$-dimensional Euclidian space by lowering the dimension of the boxes in the ambient space.

The crossing number ${\mbox {cr}}(G)$ of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is the smallest number of edge crossings over all drawings of $G$ in the plane. For any $k\ge 1$, the $k$-planar crossing number of $G$, ${\mbox {cr}}_k(G)$, is defined as the…

The core of this note is the observation that links between circle packings of graphs and potential theory developed in \cite{BeSc01} and \cite{HS} can be extended to higher dimensions. In particular, it is shown that every limit of finite…

This paper considers a kind of generalized measure $\lambda_s^{(h)}$ of fault tolerance in a hypercube-like graph $G_n$ which contain several well-known interconnection networks such as hypercubes, varietal hypercubes, twisted cubes,…

The cycle space of a graph $G$, denoted $C(G)$, is a vector space over ${\mathbb F}_2$, spanned by all incidence vectors of edge-sets of cycles of $G$. If $G$ has $n$ vertices, then $C_n(G)$ is the subspace of $C(G)$, spanned by the…

Given a graph $G$, an {\em obstacle representation} of $G$ is a set of points in the plane representing the vertices of $G$, together with a set of connected obstacles such that two vertices of $G$ are joined by an edge if and only if the…

In this note we present a construction which improves the best known bound on the minimal dispersion of large volume boxes in the unit cube. Let $d>1$. The dispersion of $T \subset [0,1]^d$ is defined as the supremum of the volume taken…

We develop a notion of containment for independent sets in hypergraphs. For every $r$-uniform hypergraph $G$, we find a relatively small collection $C$ of vertex subsets, such that every independent set of $G$ is contained within a member…
