In this short note, we establish an edge-isoperimetric inequality for arbitrary product graphs. Our inequality is sharp for subsets of many different sizes in every product graph. In particular, it implies that the $2^d$-element sets with…

The eccentricity of a vertex $v$ in a graph $G$ is the maximum distance from $v$ to any other vertex. The vertices whose eccentricity are equal to the diameter (the maximum eccentricity) of $G$ are called peripheral vertices. In trees the…

Let $G$ be a simple graph and $I_3(G)$ be its $3$-path ideal in the corresponding polynomial ring $R$. In this article, we prove that for an arbitrary graph $G$, $reg(R/I_3(G))$ is bounded below by $2\nu_3(G)$, where $\nu_3(G)$ denotes the…

An edge-ordered graph is a graph with a total ordering of its edges. A path $P=v_1v_2\ldots v_k$ in an edge-ordered graph is called increasing if $(v_iv_{i+1}) > (v_{i+1}v_{i+2})$ for all $i = 1,\ldots,k-2$; it is called decreasing if…

We consider lower bounds on the number of spanning trees of connected graphs with degree bounded by $d$. The question is of interest because such bounds may improve the analysis of the improvement produced by memorisation in the runtime of…

We provide sharp bounds for the isoperimetric constants of infinite plane graphs (tessellations) with bounded vertex and face degrees. For example, if $G$ is a plane graph satisfying the inequalities $p_1 \leq \mbox{deg}\ v \leq p_2$ for $v…

In this paper, the study of extreme value bounds for topological indices is crucial for understanding their influence on trees and bipartite graphs. For integers $\alpha, p$ satisfying $1 \leq p \leq \alpha \leq \Delta - 3$, the minimum…

Over some types of trees with a given number of vertices, which trees minimize or maximize the total number of subtrees or leaf containing subtrees are studied. Here are some of the main results:\ (1)\, Sharp upper bound on the total number…

For a graph $G$, let $t(G)$ denote the maximum number of vertices in an induced subgraph of $G$ that is a tree. Further, for a vertex $v\in V(G)$, let $t^v(G)$ denote the maximum number of vertices in an induced subgraph of $G$ that is a…

Let $G$ be a finite or infinite graph and $m(G)$ the minimum number of vertices moved by the non-identity automorphisms of $G$. We are interested in bounds on the supremum $\Delta(G)$ of the degrees of the vertices of $G$ that assure the…

Consider a drawing of a graph $G$ in the plane such that crossing edges are coloured differently. The minimum number of colours, taken over all drawings of $G$, is the classical graph parameter "thickness". By restricting the edges to be…

We study planar straight-line drawings of graphs that minimize the ratio between the length of the longest and the shortest edge. We answer a question of Lazard et al. [Theor. Comput. Sci. 770 (2019), 88--94] and, for any given constant…

We introduce the graph theoretical parameter of edge treewidth. This parameter occurs in a natural way as the tree-like analogue of cutwidth or, alternatively, as an edge-analogue of treewidth. We study the combinatorial properties of…

We consider the family of graphs whose vertex set is $\mathbb{Z}^n$ where two vertices are connected by an edge when their $\ell_\infty$-distance is 1. Towards an edge isoperimetric inequality for this graph, we calculate the edge boundary…

Tree-decompositions and treewidth are of fundamental importance in structural and algorithmic graph theory. The "spread" of a tree-decomposition is the minimum integer $s$ such that every vertex lies in at most $s$ bags. A…

The celebrated result of Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy, and Szemer\'edi states that for any $\varepsilon>0$, there exists $0<c<1$, such that for all sufficiently large $n$, every $n$-vertex graph $G$ with $\delta(G)\geq(1/2+\varepsilon)n$ contains…

The arithmetic-geometric matrix $A_{ag}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a square matrix, where the $(i,j)$-entry is equal to $\displaystyle \frac{d_{i}+d_{j}}{2\sqrt{d_{i}d_{j}}}$ if the vertices $v_{i}$ and $v_{j}$ are adjacent, and 0 otherwise. The…

For a given graph $G$, let $f:V(G)\to \{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ be a bijective mapping. For a given edge $uv \in E(G)$, $\sigma(uv)=+$, if $f(u)$ and $f(v)$ have the same parity and $\sigma(uv)=-$, if $f(u)$ and $f(v)$ have opposite parity. The…

We show that for every $n$-vertex graph with at least one edge, its treewidth is greater than or equal to $n \lambda_{2} / (\Delta + \lambda_{2}) - 1$, where $\Delta$ and $\lambda_{2}$ are the maximum degree and the second smallest…

An $\textit{identifying code}$ of a closed-twin-free graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that any two vertices in $G$ have a distinct intersection between their closed neighborhood and $S$. It was conjectured that there exists a…
