A dominating set of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a vertex set $D$ such that every vertex in $V(G) \setminus D$ is adjacent to a vertex in $D$. The cardinality of a smallest dominating set of $D$ is called the domination number of $G$ and is denoted…

Let $G$ be a directed graph such that the in-degree of any vertex $G$ is at least one. Let also ${\mathcal{\tau}}: V(G)\rightarrow \Bbb{N}$ be an assignment of thresholds to the vertices of $G$. A subset $M$ of vertices of $G$ is called a…

A complex unit gain graph ($\mathbb{T}$-gain graph), $\Phi = (G, \varphi)$ is a graph where the function $\varphi$ assigns a unit complex number to each orientation of an edge of $G$, and its inverse is assigned to the opposite orientation.…

Given a simple, finite, nonempty graph $G=(V(G),E(G))$, a vertex subset $D\subseteq V(G)$ is said to be a dominating set if every vertex $v\in V(G)-D$ is adjacent to a vertex in $D$. The independent domination number $\gamma_i(G)$ is the…

We obtain new lower bounds for the independence number of $K_r$-free graphs and linear $k$-uniform hypergraphs in terms of the degree sequence. This answers some old questions raised by Caro and Tuza \cite{CT91}. Our proof technique is an…

Given a graph $G$ and an integer $\ell\ge 2$, we denote by $\alpha_{\ell}(G)$ the maximum size of a $K_{\ell}$-free subset of vertices in $V(G)$. A recent question of Nenadov and Pehova asks for determining the best possible minimum degree…

For a real constant $\alpha$, let $\pi_3^\alpha(G)$ be the minimum of twice the number of $K_2$'s plus $\alpha$ times the number of $K_3$'s over all edge decompositions of $G$ into copies of $K_2$ and $K_3$, where $K_r$ denotes the complete…

The binding number $b(G)$ of a graph, introduced by Woodall [J. Combin. Theory, Ser. B, 1973], is a central topic of both structural and extremal graph theory. It is closely related to fundamental combinatorial and structural properties of…

Let $G$ be a graph without isolated vertices and let $\alpha(G)$ be its stability number and $\tau(G)$ its covering number. The {\it $\alpha_{v}$-cover} number of a graph, denoted by $\alpha_{v}(G)$, is the maximum natural number $m$ such…

An $r$-graph $G$ is a pair $(V,E)$ such that $V$ is a set and $E$ is a family of $r$-element subsets of $V$. The \emph{independence number} $\alpha(G)$ of $G$ is the size of a largest subset $I$ of $V$ such that no member of $E$ is a subset…

The {\em independent domination number} $\gamma^i(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the maximum, over all independent sets $I$, of the minimal number of vertices needed to dominate $I$. It is known \cite{abz} that in chordal graphs $\gamma^i$ is equal…

For a graph $H$, let $c(H)=\inf\{c\,:\,e(G)\geq c|G| \mbox{ implies } G\succ H\,\}$, where $G\succ H$ means that $H$ is a minor of $G$. We show that if $H$ has average degree $d$, then $$ c(H)\le (0.319\ldots+o_d(1))|H|\sqrt{\log d} $$…

We develop an asymptotic theory for extremes in decomposable graphical models by presenting results applicable to a range of extremal dependence types. Specifically, we investigate the weak limit of the distribution of suitably normalised…

Alon and Shikhelman initiated the systematic study of a generalization of the extremal function. Motivated by algorithmic applications, the study of the extremal function $\text{ex}(n, K_k, K_t\text{-minor})$, i.e., the number of cliques of…

The vertex $k$-partiteness $v_k(G)$ of graph $G$ is defined as the fewest number of vertices whose deletion from $G$ yields a $k$-partite graph. In this paper, we introduce two concepts: monotonic decreasing topological index and monotonic…

A subset $S\subseteq V$ in a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a total $[1,2]$-set if, for every vertex $v\in V$, $1\leq |N(v)\cap S|\leq 2$. The minimum cardinality of a total $[1,2]$-set of $G$ is called the total $[1,2]$-domination number, denoted by…

Rank 1 inhomogeneous random graphs are a natural generalization of Erd\H{o}s R\'enyi random graphs. In this generalization each node is given a weight. Then the probability that an edge is present depends on the product of the weights of…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph. A subset $D\subseteq V$ is a dominating set if every vertex not in $D$ is adjacent to a vertex in $D$. The domination number of $G$, denoted by $\gamma(G)$, is the smallest cardinality of a dominating set of $G$.…

In this paper we investigate the extremal relationship between two well-studied graph parameters: the order of the largest homogeneous set in a graph $G$ and the maximal number of distinct degrees appearing in an induced subgraph of $G$,…

The hard-core model can be used to understand the numbers of independent sets in graphs in extremal graph theory. The occupancy fraction, defined as the logarithmic derivative of the independence polynomial of a graph, is a key quantity in…
