We say a graph $H$ decomposes a graph $G$ if there exists a partition of the edges of $G$ into subgraphs isomorphic to $H$. We seek to characterize necessary and sufficient conditions for a cycle of length $k$, denoted $C_k$, to decompose…

We prove that the v-decomposition number $d_{\lambda\mu}(v)$ is an even or odd polynomial according to whether the partitions $\lambda$ and $\mu$ have the same relative sign (or parity) or not. We then use this result to verify Martin's…

Let $K_v^*$ denote the complete graph $K_v$ if $v$ is odd and $K_v-I$, the complete graph with the edges of a 1-factor removed, if $v$ is even. Given non-negative integers $v, M, N, \alpha, \beta$, the Hamilton-Waterloo problem asks for a…

Let $H$ be obtained from a cyclically $4$-edge-connected cubic planar graph $Y$ other than $K_4$ by deleting two adjacent vertices. We provide a short proof that if $H$ has circumference at least $k$ for some even integer $k \ge 4$, then…

Let $G$ be a graph, and $v\in V(G)$ and $S\subseteq V(G)\backslash v$ of size at least $k$. An important result on graph connectivity due to Perfect states that, if $v$ and $S$ are $k$-linked, then a $(k-1)$-link between a vertex $v$ and…

A graph $\Gamma$ is said to be distance-balanced if for any edge $uv$ of $\Gamma$, the number of vertices closer to $u$ than to $v$ is equal to the number of vertices closer to $v$ than to $u$, and it is called nicely distance-balanced if…

Given an edge-colored complete graph $K_n$ on $n$ vertices, a perfect (respectively, near-perfect) matching $M$ in $K_n$ with an even (respectively, odd) number of vertices is rainbow if all edges have distinct colors. In this paper, we…

In this paper we consider the uniformly resolvable decompositions of the complete graph $K_v$, or the complete graph minus a 1-factor as appropriate, into subgraphs such that each resolution class contains only blocks isomorphic to the same…

Given an edge-weighted (metric/general) complete graph with $n$ vertices, the maximum weight (metric/general) $k$-cycle/path packing problem is to find a set of $\frac{n}{k}$ vertex-disjoint $k$-cycles/paths such that the total weight is…

We conjecture that the balanced complete bipartite graph $K_{\lfloor n/2 \rfloor,\lceil n/2 \rceil}$ contains more cycles than any other $n$-vertex triangle-free graph, and we make some progress toward proving this. We give equivalent…

In this paper we consider uniformly resolvable decompositions of the complete graph K_v into subgraphs such that each resolution class contains only blocks isomorphic to the same graph. We completely determine the spectrum for the case in…

A $2t$-cycle system of order $v$ is a set $\mathcal{C}$ of cycles whose edges partition the edge-set of $K_v-I$ (i.e., the complete graph minus the $1$-factor $I$). If $v\equiv 0 \pmod{2t}$, a set of $v/2t$ vertex-disjoint cycles of…

If V is the vertex sequence of a symmetric 2t-cycle in the hypercube graph with the vertices {1,-1}^t, then for any vertex T of the graph there exists a unique inclusion-minimal subset of V such that T is the sum of its elements. We present…

We prove that a complete bipartite graph can be decomposed into cycles of arbitrary specified lengths provided that the obvious necessary conditions are satisfied, the length of each cycle is at most the size of the smallest part, and the…

We investigate the problem of packing and covering odd $(u,v)$-trails in a graph. A $(u,v)$-trail is a $(u,v)$-walk that is allowed to have repeated vertices but no repeated edges. We call a trail odd if the number of edges in the trail is…

A graph $G$ $=$ $(V,E)$ is vertex-pancyclic if for every vertex $u$ and any integer $l$ ranging from $3$ to $|V|$, $G$ contains a cycle $C$ of length $l$ such that $u$ is on $C$. A bipartite graph $G$ $=$ $(V,E)$ is vertex-bipancyclic if…

The coupled KdV-mKdV system arises as the classical part of one of superextensions of the KdV equation. For this system, we prove its complete integrability, i.e., existence of a recursion operator and of infinite series of symmetries.

We prove the following theorem. Let $r\ge 4$ be an integer, and $G$ be a $K_{1,r}$-free $r$-edge-connected $r$-regular graph. Then, for every set $W$ of even number of vertices of $G$ such that the distance between any two vertices of $W$…

Wu in 1999 conjectured that if $H$ is a subgraph of the complete graph $K_{2n+1}$ with $n$ edges, then there is a Hamiltonian cycle decomposition of $K_{2n+1}$ such that each edge of $H$ is in a separate Hamiltonian cycle. The conjecture…

In this paper, we show that for any positive integer $m$ and $k\in [2]$, let $G$ be a $(2m+2k+2)$-connected graph and let $a_1,\ldots , a_m, s, t$ be any distinct vertices of $G$, there are $k$ internally disjoint $s$-$t$ paths $P_1,…
