Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, a tree cover is a collection of trees $\mathcal{T}=\{T_1,T_2,...,T_q\}$, such that for every pair of vertices $u,v\in V$ there is a tree $T\in\mathcal{T}$ that contains a $u-v$ path with a small stretch. If the…

The threshold-$k$ metric dimension ($\mathrm{Tmd}_k$) of a graph is the minimum number of sensors -- a subset of the vertex set -- needed to uniquely identify any vertex in the graph, solely based on its distances from the sensors, when the…

The tree breadth ${\rm tb}(G)$ of a connected graph $G$ is the smallest non-negative integer $\rho$ such that $G$ has a tree decomposition whose bags all have radius at most $\rho$. We show that, given a connected graph $G$ of order $n$ and…

We introduce the notion of \emph{bounded diameter arboricity}. Specifically, the \emph{diameter-$d$ arboricity} of a graph is the minimum number $k$ such that the edges of the graph can be partitioned into $k$ forests each of whose…

We study the problem of maximizing the number of full degree vertices in a spanning tree $T$ of a graph $G$; that is, the number of vertices whose degree in $T$ equals its degree in $G$. In cubic graphs, this problem is equivalent to…

For a graph property $\Pi$, Subgraph Complementation to $\Pi$ is the problem to find whether there is a subset $S$ of vertices of the input graph $G$ such that modifying $G$ by complementing the subgraph induced by $S$ results in a graph…

Over some types of trees with a given number of vertices, which trees minimize or maximize the total number of subtrees or leaf containing subtrees are studied. Here are some of the main results:\ (1)\, Sharp upper bound on the total number…

An independent edge set of graph $G$ is a matching, and is maximal if it is not a proper subset of any other matching of $G$. The number of all the maximal matchings of $G$ is denoted by $\Psi(G)$. In this paper, an algorithm to count…

We prove that, if $m$ is sufficiently large, every graph on $m+1$ vertices that has a universal vertex and minimum degree at least $\lfloor \frac{2m}{3} \rfloor$ contains each tree $T$ with $m$ edges as a subgraph. Our result confirms, for…

The Steiner $k$-eccentricity of a vertex in graph $G$ is the maximum Steiner distance over all $k$-subsets containing the vertex. %Some general properties of the Steiner 3-eccentricity of trees are given. Let $\mathbb{T}_n$ be the set of…

This paper is motivated by the following question: what are the unavoidable induced subgraphs of graphs with large treewidth? Aboulker et al. made a conjecture which answers this question in graphs of bounded maximum degree, asserting that…

Let $k$, $d$ be a positive integer, $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$, $T$ be a tree. The leaf distance of a tree is defined as the minimum distance between any two leaves. For $v\in V(T)$, the leaf degree of $v$ in $T$ is the number of…

We study treewidth sparsifiers. Informally, given a graph $G$ of treewidth $k$, a treewidth sparsifier $H$ is a minor of $G$, whose treewidth is close to $k$, $|V(H)|$ is small, and the maximum vertex degree in $H$ is bounded. Treewidth…

The Subgraph Isomorphism problem is of considerable importance in computer science. We examine the problem when the pattern graph H is of bounded treewidth, as occurs in a variety of applications. This problem has a well-known algorithm via…

Let $G$ be a graph, and let $u$, $v$, and $w$ be vertices of $G$. If the distance between $u$ and $w$ does not equal the distance between $v$ and $w$, then $w$ is said to resolve $u$ and $v$. The metric dimension of $G$, denoted $\beta(G)$,…

The crossing number of a graph is the minimum number of edge crossings that a graph can have when drawn in the plane. Determining this number, known as the Crossing Number problem, is a celebrated problem in combinatorial optimization. It…

Given a 2-edge connected, unweighted, and undirected graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, a $\sigma$-tree spanner is a spanning tree $T$ of $G$ in which the ratio between the distance in $T$ of any pair of vertices and the…

We investigate the complexity of finding a transformation from a given spanning tree in a graph to another given spanning tree in the same graph via a sequence of edge flips. The exchange property of the matroid bases immediately yields…

A drawing of a given (abstract) tree that is a minimum spanning tree of the vertex set is considered aesthetically pleasing. However, such a drawing can only exist if the tree has maximum degree at most 6. What can be said for trees of…

A $t$-spanner of a weighted undirected graph $G=(V,E)$, is a subgraph $H$ such that $d_H(u,v)\le t\cdot d_G(u,v)$ for all $u,v\in V$. The sparseness of the spanner can be measured by its size (the number of edges) and weight (the sum of all…
