This paper proves that for any positive integer $k$, every essentially $(2k+1)$-unbalanced $(12k-1)$-edge connected signed graph has circular flow number at most $2+\frac 1k$.

The analogue of Hadwiger's conjecture for the immersion order states that every graph $G$ contains $K_{\chi (G)}$ as an immersion. If true, it would imply that every graph with $n$ vertices and independence number $\alpha$ contains…

In this paper, we prove that any simple $\{C_3,C_5\}$-free non-empty connected graph $G$ with LLY curvature bounded below by $\kappa>0$ has the order at most $2^{\frac{2}{\kappa}}$. This upper bound is achieved if and only if $G$ is a…

In this paper, we show that every $(3k-3)$-edge-connected graph $G$, under a certain condition on whose degrees, can be edge-decomposed into $k$ factors $G_1,\ldots, G_k$ such that for each vertex $v\in V(G_i)$, $|d_{G_i}(v)-d_G(v)/k|< 1$,…

We establish a sharp upper bound on the number of properly $3$-edge-colored $K_4$'s in graphs with $R$ red, $G$ green and $B$ blue edges. We give a computer-free flag-algebra proof of this bound, and we also convert our proof into a…

We establish splitter theorems for graph immersions for two families of graphs, $k$-edge-connected graphs, with $k$ even, and 3-edge-connected, internally 4-edge-connected graphs. As a corollary, we prove that every $3$-edge-connected,…

A $3$-connected graph $G$ is essentially $4$-connected if, for any $3$-cut $S\subseteq V(G)$ of $G$, at most one component of $G-S$ contains at least two vertices. We prove that every essentially $4$-connected maximal planar graph $G$ on…

Motivated by the work of Razborov about the minimal density of triangles in graphs we study the minimal density of the 5-cycle $C_5$. We show that every graph of order $n$ and size $\left( 1-\frac{1}{k}\right)\binom{n}{2}$, where $k\ge 3$…

For a fixed integer h>=1, let G be a tripartite graph with N vertices in each vertex class, N divisible by 6h, such that every vertex is adjacent to at least 2N/3+h-1 vertices in each of the other classes. We show that if N is sufficiently…

Kostochka and Yancey proved that every 5-critical graph G satisfies: |E(G)|>= (9/4)|V(G)| - 5/4. A construction of Ore gives an infinite family of graphs meeting this bound. We prove that there exists e,d > 0 such that if G is a 5-critical…

In this paper, we mainly investigate $K_{1,2}$-structure-connectivity for any connected graph. Let $G$ be a connected graph with $n$ vertices, we show that $\kappa(G; K_{1,2})$ is well-defined if $diam(G)\geq 4$, or $n\equiv 1\pmod 3$, or…

A graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with $k$ edges is $t$-edge-balanced if every graph on $n$ vertices with $t$ edges is contained in exactly the same number of subgraphs of $K_n$ isomorphic to $G$. Despite the existence of infinite families of…

In this paper we study the flow-property of graphs containing a spanning triangle-tree. Our main results provide a structure characterization of graphs with a spanning triangle-tree admitting a nowhere-zero $3$-flow. All these graphs…

A graph $G$ is $\mathcal S_3$-connected if, for any mapping $\beta : V (G) \mapsto {\mathbb Z}_3$ with $\sum_{v\in V(G)} \beta(v)\equiv 0\pmod3$, there exists a strongly connected orientation $D$ satisfying $d^{+}_D(v)-d^{-}_D(v)\equiv…

Recently Lin, Wang and Zhou have proved that every $3$-connected nonbipartite graph of minimum degree at least $k$ with $k\ge 6$ and order at least $k+2$ contains $k$ cycles of consecutive lengths. They also conjecture that this result is…

Jaeger, Linial, Payan, and Tarsi introduced the notion of $A$-connectivity for graphs in 1992, and proved a decomposition for cubic graphs from which $A$-connectivity follows for all 3-edge-connected graphs when $|A|\geq 6$. The concept of…

A conjecture of Berge suggests that every bridgeless cubic graph can have its edges covered with at most five perfect matchings. Since three perfect matchings suffice only when the graph in question is $3$-edge-colourable, the rest of cubic…

A graph is called equimatchable if all of its maximal matchings have the same size. Due to Eiben and Kotrb\v{c}\'{i}k,, any connected graph with odd order and independence number $\alpha(G)$ at most $2$ is equimatchable. Akbari et al.…

The support of a flow $x$ in a network is the subdigraph induced by the arcs $uv$ for which $x(uv)>0$. We discuss a number of results on flows in networks where we put certain restrictions on structure of the support of the flow. Many of…

We prove that for every graph $G$, given fixed locations for the vertices of $G$ in $\mathbb{Z}^3$, there is a three-dimensional grid-drawing of $G$ with one bend per edge. The best previous bound was three bends per edge.
