We present exact and heuristic algorithms that find, for a given family of graphs, a graph that contains each member of the family as an induced subgraph. For $0 \leq k \leq 6$, we give the minimum number of vertices $f(k)$ in a graph…

We systematically determine circular chromatic index of small graphs and multigraphs with maximum degree $4$, $5$, $6$ (and also their number for a given small order). We construct several infinite families of such graphs with circular…

In this paper, we introduce a family of tetravalent graphs called propeller graphs, denoted by $Pr_{n}(b,c,d)$. We then produce three infinite subfamilies and one finite subfamily of arc-transitive propeller graphs, and show that all such…

We give a series of new lower bounds on the minimum number of vertices required by a graph to contain every graph of a given family as induced subgraph. In particular, we show that this induced-universal graph for $n$-vertex planar graphs…

If $N \subset P,Q \subset M$ are type II_1 factors with $N' \cap M = C id$ and $[M:N]$ finite we show that restrictions on the standard invariants of the elementary inclusions $N \subset P$, $N \subset Q$, $P \subset M$ and $Q \subset M$…

A graph is chordal if it does not contain an induced cycle of length greater than three. We determine the minimum size of a chordal graph with given order and minimum degree. In doing so, we have discovered interesting properties of chordal…

For any abstract subfactor planar algebra $P$, there exists a finite index extremal subfactor $M_0 \subset M_1$ with $P$ as its standard invariant. In this paper, we classify the automorphism group of a bipartite graph planar algebra, and…

We construct a noncommuting quadrilateral of factors whose upper sides are each the Asaeda-Haagerup subfactor with index $\frac{5+\sqrt{17}}{2} $ by showing the existence of a Q-system in the Asaeda-Haagerup category with index…

An inclusion of II$_1$ factors $N \subset M$ with finite Jones index gives rise to a powerful set of invariants that can be approached successfully in a number of different ways. We describe Jones' pictorial description of the standard…

Given a graph $G$, let $\mu(G)$ denote the size of the smallest maximal independent set in $G$. A family of subsets is called a star if some element is in every set of the family. A split vertex has degree at least 3. Holroyd and Talbot…

A longest path in a graph is called a detour. It is easy to see that a connected graph of minimum degree at least $2$ and order at least $4$ has at least $4$ detours. We prove that if the number of detours in such a graph of order at least…

The sensitivity, $\sigma(G)$, of a finite undirected simple graph $G$ is the smallest maximum degree of an induced subgraph on more than the maximum number of independent vertices. Call an indexed family of graphs $G_n$ with maximum degree…

The smallest eigenvalue of a graph is the smallest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. We show that the family of graphs with smallest eigenvalue at least $-\lambda$ can be defined by a finite set of forbidden induced subgraphs if and only…

The notion of index for inclusions of von Neumann algebras goes back to a seminal work of Jones on subfactors of type ${I\!I}_1$. In the absence of a trace, one can still define the index of a conditional expectation associated to a…

An $[a,b]$-factor of a graph $G$ is a spanning subgraph $H$ such that $a\leq d_{H}(v)\leq b$ for each $v\in V(G)$. In this paper, we provide spectral conditions for the existence of an odd $[1,b]$-factor in a connected graph with minimum…

In this paper, we obtain several new factorization results for certain classes of polynomials having integer coefficients. In doing so, we use the information about prime factorization of the value taken up by such polynomials and their…

A graph $G$ is $d$-degenerate if every non-null subgraph of $G$ has a vertex of degree at most $d$. We prove that every $n$-vertex planar graph has a $3$-degenerate induced subgraph of order at least $3n/4$.

In this note we show that there is a cubic graph of girth $5$ that is not a subgraph of any minimal Cayley graph. On the other hand, we show that any Generalized Petersen Graph $G(n,k)$ with $\gcd(n,k)=1$ is an induced subgraph of a minimal…

Let $C_6^3$ be the 3-uniform hypergraph on $\{1,\dots, 6\}$ with edges $123, 345,561$, which can be seen as the triangle in 3-uniform hypergraphs. For sufficiently large $n$ divisible by 6, we show that every $n$-vertex 3-uniform hypergraph…

Let $a > 1$. Then $a^n < n!$ for some positive integer $n$. There are several numerical sequences associated with the study of the smallest such integer which are studied in \cite{RadFact} and \cite{RadGamma}. Here we continue the…
