We study the minimax problem for restricted two-fold self-sumsets in $k$-colorings of $\mathbb{Z}_n$. For primes $p$ with $2\le k\le p$ we determine the exact minimum $\max\{0,\,2\lceil p/k\rceil-3\}$. For general $n$ (with $m=\lceil…

The 2-dimensional Hamming graph H(2,n) consists of the $n^2$ vertices $(i,j)$, $1\leq i,j\leq n$, two vertices being adjacent when they share a common coordinate. We examine random subgraphs of H(2,n) in percolation with edge probability…

We derive universal lower and upper bounds for max-min and min-max problems (also known as polarization) for the potential of spherical $(k,k)$-designs and provide certain examples, including unit-norm tight frames, that attain these…

The strong geodetic problem is a recent variation of the geodetic problem. For a graph $G$, its strong geodetic number ${\rm sg}(G)$ is the cardinality of a smallest vertex subset $S$, such that each vertex of $G$ lies on a fixed shortest…

We prove general theorems for isoperimetric problems on lattices of the form ${\mathbb{Z}}^{k} \times {\mathbb{N}}^{d}$ which state that the perimeter of the optimal set is a monotonically increasing function of the volume under certain…

Let $G = (V(G), E(G))$ be a graph. The maximum cardinality of a set $M_k \subseteq E(G)$ such that $M_k$ contains exactly $k$-pairs of adjacent edges of $G$ is called the $k$-nearly edge independence number of $G$, and is denoted by…

In this paper we study the chromatic number of the Grassmann graphs $J_q(n, m)$. We show that $\binom{n-m+1}{1}_q \leq \chi(J_q(n, m)) \leq \binom{n}{1}_q$, which is analogous to the best-known bounds for the chromatic number of the Johnson…

The Johnson graph J(n,N) is defined as the graph whose vertices are the n-subsets of the set {1,2,...,N}, where two vertices are adjacent if they share exactly n - 1 elements. Unlike Johnson graphs, induced subgraphs of Johnson graphs (JIS…

The concept of mutual visibility in graphs, introduced recently, addresses a fundamental problem in Graph Theory concerning the identification of the largest set of vertices in a graph such that any two vertices have a shortest path…

Let $\lambda(G)$ be the smallest number of vertices that can be removed from a non-empty graph $G$ so that the resulting graph has a smaller maximum degree. Let $\lambda_{\rm e}(G)$ be the smallest number of edges that can be removed from…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph of density $p$ on $n$ vertices. Following Erd\H{o}s, \L uczak and Spencer, an $m$-vertex subgraph $H$ of $G$ is called {\em full} if $H$ has minimum degree at least $p(m - 1)$. Let $f(G)$ denote the order of a…

The purpose of this paper is to give explicit methods for bounding the number of vertices of finite $k$-regular graphs with given second eigenvalue. Let $X$ be a finite $k$-regular graph and $\mu_1(X)$ the second largest eigenvalue of its…

In this paper, we discuss various connections between the smallest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a graph and its structure. There are several techniques for obtaining upper bounds on the smallest eigenvalue, and some of them are…

The Johnson graph $J(n,i)$ is defined to the graph whose vertex set is the set of all $i$-element subsets of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$, and two vertices are joined whenever the cardinality of their intersection is equal to $i-1$. In Ramras and…

The simplicial rook graph ${\rm SR}(m,n)$ is the graph of which the vertices are the sequences of nonnegative integers of length $m$ summing to $n$, where two such sequences are adjacent when they differ in precisely two places. We show…

This work is devoted to lower bounds on independence numbers of distance graphs with vertices in $\{-1,0,1\}^n$. The asymptotic case is studied, yielding new results over a broad range of parameters. Numerical results are presented,…

An $(n,m)$-graph is a graph with $n$ types of arcs and $m$ types of edges. A homomorphism of an $(n,m)$-graph $G$ to another $(n,m)$-graph $H$ is a vertex mapping that preserves the adjacencies along with their types and directions. The…

Given a finite group $G$ acting freely on a compact metric space $M$, and $\epsilon>0$, we define the $G$-Borsuk graph on $M$ by drawing edges $x\sim y$ whenever there is a non-identity $g\in G$ such that $d(x,gy)\leq\epsilon$. We show that…

We examine the m-shades of t-intersecting families of k-subsets of [n], and conjecture on the optimal upper bound on their cardinalities. This conjecture extends Frankl's General Conjecture that was proven true by Ahlswede-Khachatrian. From…

The boxicity of a graph is the smallest dimension $d$ allowing a representation of it as the intersection graph of a set of $d$-dimensional axis-parallel boxes. We present a simple general approach to determining the boxicity of a graph…
