A self-contained graph is an infinite graph which is isomorphic to one of its proper induced subgraphs. In this paper, these graphs are studied by presenting some examples and defining some of their sub-structures such as removable…

We classify the connected graphs with precisely three distinct eigenvalues and second largest eigenvalue at most 1.

A graph is called $\alpha_i$-metric ($i \in {\cal N}$) if it satisfies the following $\alpha_i$-metric property for every vertices $u, w, v$ and $x$: if a shortest path between $u$ and $w$ and a shortest path between $x$ and $v$ share a…

Two graphs are homomorphism indistinguishable over a graph class $\mathcal{F}$, denoted by $G \equiv_{\mathcal{F}} H$, if $\operatorname{hom}(F,G) = \operatorname{hom}(F,H)$ for all $F \in \mathcal{F}$ where $\operatorname{hom}(F,G)$…

A graph is reducible if it is the lexicographic product of two smaller non-trivial graphs. It is well-known a 1-planar graph with $n ~(\ge3)$ vertices has at most $4n-8$ edges, and a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices is optimal if $G$ has exactly…

We show that any two Hadamard graphs on the same number of vertices are quantum isomorphic. This follows from a more general recipe for showing quantum isomorphism of graphs arising from certain association schemes. The main result is built…

Robertson and Seymour proved that for every finite tree $H$, there exists $k$ such that every finite graph $G$ with no $H$ minor has path-width at most $k$; and conversely, for every integer $k$, there is a finite tree $H$ such that every…

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and let $H:V(G)\rightarrow 2^N$ be a set function associating with $G$. An $H$-factor of graph $G$ is a spanning subgraphs $F$ such that $$d_F(v)\in H(v){4em}\hbox{for every}v\in V(G).$$ Let…

We extend known results on chordal graphs and distance-hereditary graphs to much larger graph classes by using only a common metric property of these graphs. Specifically, a graph is called $\alpha_i$-metric ($i\in \mathcal{N}$) if it…

Let X(G) denote the flag complex of a graph G=(V,E) on n vertices. We study relations between the first eigenvalues of successive higher Laplacians of X(G). One consequence is the following result: Let \lambda_2(G) denote the second…

For graphs $G$ and $H$, a mapping $f: V(G)\dom V(H)$ is a homomorphism of $G$ to $H$ if $uv\in E(G)$ implies $f(u)f(v)\in E(H).$ If, moreover, each vertex $u \in V(G)$ is associated with costs $c_i(u), i \in V(H)$, then the cost of the…

Motivated by the problem about HOMO-LUMO separation that arises in mathematical chemistry, Fowler and Pisanski introduced the notion of the HL-index which measures how large in absolute value may be the median eigenvalues of a graph. In…

For an $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$, let $\nu^{(m)}(H)$ denote the maximum size of a set~$M$ of edges in $H$ such that every two edges in $M$ intersect in less than $m$ vertices, and let $\tau^{(m)}(H)$ denote the minimum size of a collection…

Every irreducible outer automorphism of the free group of rank r is topologically represented by an irreducible train track map $f$ on some graph $\Gamma$ of rank r. Moreover, $f$ can always be written as a composition of folds and a graph…

We show that if a planar graph $G$ with minimum degree at least $3$ has positive Lin-Lu-Yau Ricci curvature on every edge, then $\Delta(G)\leq 17$, which then implies that $G$ is finite. This is an analogue of a result of DeVos and Mohar…

A graph is pseudo 2-factor isomorphic if all of its 2-factors have the same parity of number of cycles. Abreu et al. [J. Comb. Theory, Ser. B. 98 (2008) 432--442] conjectured that $K_{3,3}$, the Heawood graph and the Pappus graph are the…

In this paper, we characterize all graphs with eigenvectors of the signless Laplacian and adjacency matrices with components equal to $\{- 1, 0, 1\}.$ We extend the graph parameter max $k$-cut to square matrices and prove a general sharp…

Given a graph $G$, let $\lambda_3$ denote the third largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. In this paper, we prove various results towards the conjecture that $\lambda_3(G) \le \frac{|V(G)|}{3}$, motivated by a question of Nikiforov.…

A nut graph is a simple graph of order 2 or more for which the adjacency matrix has a single zero eigenvalue such that all non-zero kernel eigenvectors have no zero entry (i.e. are full). It is shown by construction that every finite group…

A connected undirected graph $G = (V,E)$ is lower conformally rigid if uniform edge weights maximize the second smallest Laplacian eigenvalue $\lambda_2(w)$ over all normalized edge weights $w$, and upper conformally rigid if uniform edge…
