Vertex connectivity and edge connectivity are fundamental concepts in graph theory that have been widely studied from both structural and algorithmic perspectives. The focus of this paper is on computing these two parameters for graphs…
In the past decades, many scholars concerned which edge-extremal problems have spectral analogues? Recently, Wang, Kang and Xue showed an interesting result on $F$-free graphs [J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 159 (2023) 20--41]. In this paper, we…
We investigate the completely positive semidefinite cone $\mathcal{CS}_+^n$, a new matrix cone consisting of all $n\times n$ matrices that admit a Gram representation by positive semidefinite matrices (of any size). In particular we study…
We call a graph $G$ an $(r,t)$-Ruzsa-Szemer\'edi graph if its edge set can be partitioned into $t$ edge-disjoint induced matchings, each of size $r$. These graphs were introduced in 1978 and has been extensively studied since then. In this…
Given a function $g=g(n)$ we let ${\mathcal E}^g$ be the class of all graphs $G$ such that if $G$ has order $n$ (that is, has $n$ vertices) then it is embeddable in some surface of Euler genus at most $g(n)$, and let ${\widetilde{\mathcal…
A graph homomorphism is a vertex map which carries edges from a source graph to edges in a target graph. The instances of the Weighted Maximum H-Colourable Subgraph problem (MAX H-COL) are edge-weighted graphs G and the objective is to find…
For $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, positive integer $n$, and $d > 0$, let $G(S^n, d)$ be the graph whose vertex set is $S^n$ where any two vertices are adjacent if and only if they are Euclidean distance $d$ apart. The primary question we will…
The edge-hyper-Wiener index of a connected graph $G$ is defined as $WW_e(G) = \frac{1}{2}\sum_{\lbrace e,f\rbrace \subseteq E(G)}d(e,f) + \frac{1}{2}\sum_{\lbrace e,f\rbrace \subseteq E(G)}d(e,f)^2$. We develop a method for computing the…
A strongly separating path system in a graph $G$ is a collection $\mathcal{P}$ of paths in $G$ such that, for every two edges $e$ and $f$ of $G$, there is a paths in $\mathcal{P}$ with $e$ and not $f$, and vice-versa. The minimum number of…
Let $n$ be any positive integer, the friendship graph $F_n$ consist of $n$ edge-disjoint triangles that all of them meeting in one vertex. A graph $G$ is called cospectral with a graph $H$ if their adjacency matrices have the same…
Given a connected outerplanar graph G of pathwidth p, we give an algorithm to add edges to G to get a supergraph of G, which is 2-vertex-connected, outerplanar and of pathwidth O(p). This settles an open problem raised by Biedl, in the…
A graph $G$ is said to be \emph{determined by its spectrum} if any graph having the same spectrum as $G$ is isomorphic to $G$. Let $K_n \setminus P_{\ell}$ be the graph obtained from $K_n$ by removing edges of $P_\ell$, where $P_\ell$ is a…
The connective constant $\mu(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the asymptotic growth rate of the number $\sigma_{n}$ of self-avoiding walks of length $n$ in $G$ from a given vertex. We prove a formula for the connective constant for free products of…
A connected graph $G$ with at least $2m + 2n + 2$ vertices which contains a perfect matching is $E(m, n)$-{\it extendable}, if for any two sets of disjoint independent edges $M$ and $N$ with $|M| = m$ and $|N|= n$, there is a perfect…
A leaf matching operation on a graph consists of removing a vertex of degree~$1$ together with its neighbour from the graph. For $k\geq 0$, let $G$ be a $d$-regular cyclically $(d-1+2k)$-edge-connected graph of even order. We prove that for…
The circumference denoted by $c(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the length of its longest cycle. Let $\delta(G)$ and $\omega(G)$ denote the minimum degree and the clique number of a graph $G$, respectively. In [\emph{Electron. J. Combin.} 31(4)(2024)…
A near-factor of a finite simple graph $G$ is a matching that saturates all vertices except one. A graph $G$ is said to be near-factor-critical if the deletion of any vertex from $G$ results in a subgraph that has a near-factor. We prove…
The principal ratio of a connected graph $G$, $\gamma(G)$, is the ratio between the largest and smallest coordinates of the principal eigenvector of the adjacency matrix of $G$. Over all connected graphs on $n$ vertices, $\gamma(G)$ ranges…
A graph is equimatchable if each of its matchings is a subset of a maximum matching. It is known that any 2-connected equimatchable graph is either bipartite, or factor-critical, and that these two classes are disjoint. This paper provides…
For a graph $G$, we associate a family of real symmetric matrices, $S(G)$, where for any $A\in S(G)$, the location of the nonzero off-diagonal entries of $A$ are governed by the adjacency structure of $G$. Let $q(G)$ be the minimum number…
