A fork is a graph obtained from $K_{1,3}$ (usually called claw) by subdividing an edge once. A graph is perfectly divisible if for each of its induced subgraph $H$, $V(H)$ can be partitioned into $A$ and $B$ such that $H[A]$ is perfect and…

The rank of a graph is defined to be the rank of its adjacency matrix. A graph is called reduced if it has no isolated vertices and no two vertices with the same set of neighbors. We determine the maximum order of reduced triangle-free…

We prove Hadwiger's Conjecture for $\{\text{co-claw}, \text{co-gem}\}$-free graphs and $\{\text{fork}, \text{antifork}\}$-free graphs, where the co-claw is the disjoint union of a triangle and a vertex, the co-gem is the disjoint union of a…

How many cliques can a graph on $n$ vertices have with a forbidden substructure? Extremal problems of this sort have been studied for a long time. This paper studies the maximum possible number of cliques in a graph on $n$ vertices with a…

A \emph{$k$--bisection} of a bridgeless cubic graph $G$ is a $2$--colouring of its vertex set such that the colour classes have the same cardinality and all connected components in the two subgraphs induced by the colour classes have order…

Hadwiger's conjecture asserts that if a simple graph $G$ has no $K_{t+1}$ minor, then its vertex set $V(G)$ can be partitioned into $t$ stable sets. This is still open, but we prove under the same hypotheses that $V(G)$ can be partitioned…

A graph $G$ contains another graph $H$ as an immersion if $H$ can be obtained from a subgraph of $G$ by splitting off edges and removing isolated vertices. There is an obvious necessary degree condition for the immersion containment: if $G$…

We prove a decomposition theorem for graphs that do not contain a subdivision of $K_4$ as an induced subgraph where $K_4$ is the complete graph on four vertices. We obtain also a structure theorem for the class $\cal C$ of graphs that…

A graph is perfectly divisible if for each of its induced subgraph $H$, $V(H)$ can be partitioned into $A$ and $B$ such that $H[A]$ is perfect and $\omega(H[B]) < \omega(H)$, and a graph $G$ is perfectly weight divisible if for every…

A claw-free graph is a graph that does not contain $K_{1,3}$ as an induced subgraph, and a 2-factor is a 2-regular spanning subgraph of a graph. In 1997, Ryj\'{a}\v{c}ek introduced the closure concept of claw-free graphs, and Hamilton…

Here we prove that a graph without some three induced subgraphs has chromatic number at the most equal to its maximum clique size plus one. Further we show that the bounds are tight and give examples to show that each of the three forbidden…

Tuza famously conjectured in 1981 that in a graph without k+1 edge-disjoint triangles, it suffices to delete at most 2k edges to obtain a triangle-free graph. The conjecture holds for graphs with small treewidth or small maximum average…

An orientation of a graph is semi-transitive if it contains no directed cycles and has no shortcuts. An undirected graph is semi-transitive if it can be oriented in a semi-transitive manner. The class of semi-transitive graphs includes…

The Borodin-Kostochka Conjecture states that for a graph $G$, if $\Delta(G) \geq 9$ and $\omega(G) \leq \Delta(G)-1$, then $\chi(G)\leq\Delta(G) -1$. We prove the Borodin-Kostochka Conjecture for $(P_5, \text{gem})$-free graphs, i.e.,…

A graph is $\mathrm{ISK}_4$-free if it contains no induced subdivision of $K_4$. L\'ev\^eque et al. [\emph{J. Combin. Theory Ser. B} \textbf{102} (2012) 924--947] conjectured that all $\mathrm{ISK}_4$-free graphs are 4-colorable. Chen et…

A graph $G$ is $H$-free if any subset of $V(G)$ does not induce a subgraph of $G$ that is isomorphic to $H$. Given a graph $H$, we present sufficient and necessary conditions for a graph $G$ such that $G/e$ is $H$-free for any edge $e$ in…

We present an algorithm to color a graph $G$ with no triangle and no induced $7$-vertex path (i.e., a $\{P_7,C_3\}$-free graph), where every vertex is assigned a list of possible colors which is a subset of $\{1,2,3\}$. While this is a…

Problem of finding an optimal upper bound for the chromatic no. of a graph is still open and very hard. Borodin and Kostochka Conjecture is still open and if proved will improve Brook bound on Chromatic no. of a graph. Here we prove Borodin…

We prove a conjecture of Bonamy, Bousquet, Pilipczuk, Rz\k{a}\.zewski, Thomass\'e, and Walczak, that for every graph $H$, there is a polynomial $p$ such that for every positive integer $s$, every graph of average degree at least $p(s)$…

When all non-edge distances of a graph realized in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ as a {\em bar-and-joint framework} are generically {\em implied} by the bar (edge) lengths, the graph is said to be {\em rigid} in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$. For $d=3$,…
