A multifamily set representation of a finite simple graph $G$ is a multifamily $\mathcal{F}$ of sets (not necessarily distinct) for which each set represents a vertex in $G$ and two sets in $\mathcal{F}$ intersects if and only if the two…

In 1966, Erd\H{o}s, Goodman, and P\'{o}sa showed that if $G$ is an $n$-vertex graph, then at most $\lfloor n^2/4 \rfloor$ cliques of $G$ are needed to cover the edges of $G$, and the bound is best possible as witnessed by the balanced…

A complete graph is the graph in which every two vertices are adjacent. For a graph $G=(V,E)$, the complete width of $G$ is the minimum $k$ such that there exist $k$ independent sets $\mathtt{N}_i\subseteq V$, $1\le i\le k$, such that the…

The smallest number of cliques, covering all edges of a graph $ G $, is called the (edge) clique cover number of $ G $ and is denoted by $ cc(G) $. It is an easy observation that for every line graph $ G $ with $ n $ vertices, $cc(G)\leq n…

All the work made so far on edge-covering a graph by cliques focus on finding the minimum number of cliques that cover the graph. On this paper, we fix the number of cliques that cover a graph by the same number of vertices that the graph…

Let $G$ be a graph and $\mathcal{K}_G$ be the set of all cliques of $G$, then the clique graph of G denoted by $K(G)$ is the graph with vertex set $\mathcal{K}_G$ and two elements $Q_i,Q_j \in \mathcal{K}_G$ form an edge if and only if $Q_i…

The simplex graph $S(G)$ of a graph $G$ is defined as the graph whose vertices are the cliques of $G$ (including the empty set), with two vertices being adjacent if, as cliques of $G$, they differ in exactly one vertex. Simplex graphs form…

Finding the largest clique is a notoriously hard problem, even on random graphs. It is known that the clique number of a random graph G(n,1/2) is almost surely either k or k+1, where k = 2log n - 2log(log n) - 1. However, a simple greedy…

In 1966, Erd\H{o}s, Goodman, and P\'osa proved that $\lfloor n^2/4 \rfloor$ cliques are sufficient to cover all edges in any $n$-vertex graph, with tightness achieved by the balanced complete bipartite graph. This result was generalized by…

Our main result is that every graph $G$ on $n\ge 10^4r^3$ vertices with minimum degree $\delta(G) \ge (1 - 1 / 10^4 r^{3/2} ) n$ has a fractional $K_r$-decomposition. Combining this result with recent work of Barber, K\"uhn, Lo and Osthus…

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 $k$,…

Recently Cutler and Radcliffe proved that the graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree at most $r$ having the most cliques is a disjoint union of $\lfloor n/(r+1)\rfloor$ cliques of size $r+1$ together with a clique on the remainder of the…

Given any graph $G$, the (adjacency) spread of $G$ is the maximum absolute difference between any two eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of $G$. In this paper, we resolve a pair of 20-year-old conjectures of Gregory, Hershkowitz, and…

A graph $G$ of order $nv$ where $n\geq 2$ and $v\geq 2$ is said to be weakly $(n,v)$-clique-partitioned if its vertex set can be decomposed in a unique way into $n$ vertex-disjoint $v$-cliques. It is strongly $(n,v)$-clique-partitioned if…

The Cluster Deletion problem takes a graph $G$ as input and asks for a minimum size set of edges $X$ such that $G-X$ is the disjoint union of complete graphs. An equivalent formulation is the Clique Partition problem, which asks to find a…

The theory of dense graph limits comes with a natural sampling process which yields an inhomogeneous variant G(n,W) of the Erdos-Renyi random graph. Here we study the clique number of these random graphs. We establish the concentration of…

In a graph, a Clique-Stable Set separator (CS-separator) is a family $\mathcal{C}$ of cuts (bipartitions of the vertex set) such that for every clique $K$ and every stable set $S$ with $K \cap S = \emptyset$, there exists a cut $( W,W')$ in…

Let $G$ be a graph whose edges are coloured with $k$ colours, and $\mathcal H=(H_1,\dots , H_k)$ be a $k$-tuple of graphs. A monochromatic $\mathcal H$-decomposition of $G$ is a partition of the edge set of $G$ such that each part is either…

The realization graph $\mathcal{G}(d)$ of a degree sequence $d$ is the graph whose vertices are labeled realizations of $d$, where edges join realizations that differ by swapping a single pair of edges. Barrus [On realization graphs of…

One of the central questions in Ramsey theory asks how small can be the size of the largest clique and independent set in a graph on $N$ vertices. By the celebrated result of Erd\H{o}s from 1947, the random graph on $N$ vertices with edge…
