A monitoring edge-geodetic set, or simply an MEG-set, of a graph $G$ is a vertex subset $M \subseteq V(G)$ such that given any edge $e$ of $G$, $e$ lies on every shortest $u$-$v$ path of $G$, for some $u,v \in M$. The monitoring…

Dominating sets and resolving sets have important applications in control theory and computer science. In this paper, we introduce an edge-analog of the classical dominant metric dimension of graphs. By combining the concepts of a…

A graph $G = (V,E)$ is globally rigid in $\mathbb{R}^d$ if for any generic placement $p : V \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^d$ of the vertices, the edge lengths $||p(u) - p(v)||, uv \in E$ uniquely determine $p$, up to congruence. In this paper we…

Let $G_{g,b}$ be the set of all uni/trivalent graphs representing the combinatorial structures of pant decompositions of the oriented surface of genus $g$ with $b$ boundary components. We describe the set $A_{g,b}$ of all automorphisms of…

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$, $f$ a permutation of $V(G)$. Define $\delta_f(G)=|d(x,y)-d(f(x),f(y))|$ and $\delta_f(G)=\Sigma\delta_f(x,y)$, where the sum is taken over all unordered pair $x$, $y$ of distinct vertices of $G$.…

A sequence of vertices $(v_1,\, \dots , \,v_k)$ of a graph $G$ is called a {\it dominating closed neighborhood sequence} if $\{v_1,\, \dots , \,v_k\}$ is a dominating set of $G$ and $N[v_i]\nsubseteq \cup _{j=1}^{i-1} N[v_j]$ for every $i$.…

We present fixed parameter tractable algorithms for the conflict-free coloring problem on graphs. Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, \emph{conflict-free coloring} of $G$ refers to coloring a subset of $V$ such that for every vertex $v$, there is a…

The boxicity of a graph $G$ is the least integer $d$ such that $G$ has an intersection model of axis-aligned $d$-dimensional boxes. Boxicity, the problem of deciding whether a given graph $G$ has boxicity at most $d$, is NP-complete for…

A set of vertices $S$ is a \emph{determining set} of a graph $G$ if every automorphism of $G$ is uniquely determined by its action on $S$. The \emph{determining number} of $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a determining set of $G$. This…

The zero locus of a function f on a graph G is defined as the graph with vertex set consisting of all complete subgraphs of G, on which f changes sign and where x,y are connected if one is contained in the other. For d-graphs, finite simple…

We study the graphs formed from instances of the stable matching problem by connecting pairs of elements with an edge when there exists a stable matching in which they are matched. Our results include the NP-completeness of recognizing…

The functionality of a graph $G$ is the minimum number $k$ such that in every induced subgraph of $G$ there exists a vertex whose neighbourhood is uniquely determined by the neighborhoods of at most $k$ other vertices in the subgraph. The…

This note presents a new, elementary proof of a generalization of a theorem of Halin to graphs with unbounded degrees, which is then applied to show that every connected, countably infinite graph G with a subdegree-finite, infinite…

For an undirected, simple, finite, connected graph $G$, we denote by $V(G)$ and $E(G)$ the sets of its vertices and edges, respectively. A function $\varphi:E(G)\rightarrow \{1,...,t\}$ is called a proper edge $t$-coloring of a graph $G$,…

Given a connected graph $G$, a vertex $w\in V(G)$ distinguishes two different vertices $u,v$ of $G$ if the distances between $w$ and $u$ and between $w$ and $v$ are different. Moreover, $w$ strongly resolves the pair $u,v$ if there exists…

We consider the graph whose vertex set is a conjugacy class ${\mathcal C}$ consisting of finite-rank self-adjoint operators on a complex Hilbert space $H$. The dimension of $H$ is assumed to be not less than $3$. In the case when operators…

In this paper we study the following problem. Let $A$ be a fixed graph, and let $\hom(G,A)$ denote the number of homomorphisms from a graph $G$ to $A$. Furthermore, let $v(G)$ denote the number of vertices of $G$, and let $\mathcal{G}_d$…

The determining number of a graph $G = (V,E)$ is the minimum cardinality of a set $S\subseteq V$ such that pointwise stabilizer of $S$ under the action of $Aut(G)$ is trivial. In this paper, we provide some improved upper and lower bounds…

A set $D$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is a dominating set of $G$ if every vertex in $V_G-D$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $D$. The domination number (upper domination number, respectively) of a graph $G$, denoted by $\gamma(G)$…

The independent domination number of a finite graph G is the minimum cardinality of an independent dominating set of vertices. The independent bondage number of G is the minimum cardinality of a set of edges whose deletion results in a…
