In this paper we further our understanding of the structure of class two cubic graphs, or snarks, as they are commonly known. We do this by investigating their 3-critical subgraphs, or as we will call them, minimal conflicting subgraphs. We…

A graph $G$ is nonseparating projective planar if $G$ has a projective planar embedding without a nonsplit link. Nonseparating projective planar graphs are closed under taking minors and are a superclass of projective outerplanar graphs. We…

A graph is prime if it does not admit a partition $(A,B)$ of its vertex set such that $\min\{|A|,|B|\} \geq 2$ and the rank of the $A\times B$ submatrix of its adjacency matrix is at most $1$. A vertex $v$ of a graph is non-essential if at…

Given graphs $G, H_1, H_2$, we write $G \rightarrow ({H}_1, H_2)$ if every $\{$red, blue$\}$-coloring of the edges of $G$ contains a red copy of $H_1$ or a blue copy of $H_2$. A non-complete graph $G$ is $(H_1, H_2)$-co-critical if $G…

Recently, there have been found new relations between the zero forcing number and the minimum rank of a graph with the algebraic co-rank. We continue on this direction by giving a characterization of the graphs with real algebraic co-rank…

For a graph G and an integer t we let mcc_t(G) be the smallest m such that there exists a coloring of the vertices of G by t colors with no monochromatic connected subgraph having more than m vertices. Let F be any nontrivial minor-closed…

Visualizing a graph $G$ in the plane nicely, for example, without crossings, is unfortunately not always possible. To address this problem, Masa\v{r}\'ik and Hlin\v{e}n\'y [GD 2023] recently asked for each edge of $G$ to be drawn without…

In this paper we consider a natural extremal graph theoretic problem of topological sort, concerning the minimization of the (topological) connectedness of the independence complex of graphs in terms of its dimension. We observe that the…

We determine an asymptotic formula for the number of labelled 2-connected (simple) graphs on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, provided that $m-n\to\infty$ and $m=O(n\log n)$ as $n\to\infty$. This is the entire range of $m$ not covered by…

We say that a graph $G$ is $(2,m)$-linked if, for any distinct vertices $a_1,\ldots, a_m, b_1,b_2$ in $G$, there exist vertex disjoint connected subgraphs $A,B$ of $G$ such that $\{a_1, \ldots, a_m\}$ is contained in $A$ and $\{b_1,b_2\}$…

We prove that for a connected simple graph $G$ with $n\le 10$ vertices, and two longest paths $C$ and $D$ in $G$, the intersection of vertex sets $V(C)\cap V(D)$ is a separator. This shows that the graph found previously with $n=11$, in…

In this paper, we study commutative zero-divisor semigroups determined by graphs. We prove a uniqueness theorem for a class of graphs. We show two classes of graphs that have no corresponding semigroups. In particular, any complete graph…

A subset $D$ of $V$ is \emph{dominating} in $G$ if every vertex of $V-D$ has at least one neighbour in $D;$ let $\gamma(G)$ be the minimum cardinality among all dominating sets in $G.$ A graph $G$ is $\gamma$-$q$-{\it critical} if the…

Given a (directed) graph G=(V,A), a subset X of V is an interval of G provided that for any a, b\in X and x\in V-X, (a,x)\in A if and only if (b,x)\in A and (x,a)\in A if and only if (x,b)\in A. For example, \emptyset, \{x\} (x \in V) and V…

Let $G$ be a group. The intersection subgroup graph of $G$ (introduced by Anderson et al. \cite{anderson}) is the simple graph $\Gamma_{S}(G)$ whose vertices are those non-trivial subgroups say $H$ of $G$ with $H\cap K=\{e\}$ for some…

Mader conjectured in 1979 that an average degree of at least $3k-1$ in a graph is sufficient for the existence of a $(k+1)$-connected subgraph. The following minimum degree analogue holds: Every graph with minimum degree at least $3k-1$…

There has been significant research dedicated towards computing the crossing numbers of families of graphs resulting from the Cartesian products of small graphs with arbitrarily large paths, cycles and stars. For graphs with four or fewer…

A graph coloring has bounded clustering if each monochromatic component has bounded size. This paper studies such a coloring, where the number of colors depends on an excluded complete bipartite subgraph. This is a much weaker assumption…

A graph $G$ of order $n$ is said to be $k$-factor-critical for integers $1\leq k < n$, if the removal of any $k$ vertices results in a graph with a perfect matching. A $k$-factor-critical graph $G$ is called minimal if for any edge $e\in…

In this paper we first show that among all double-toroidal and triple-toroidal finite graphs only $K_8 \sqcup 9K_1$, $K_8 \sqcup 5K_2$, $K_8 \sqcup 3K_4$, $K_8 \sqcup 9K_3$, $K_8\sqcup 9(K_1 \vee 3K_2)$, $3K_6$ and $3K_6 \sqcup 4K_4 \sqcup…
