A triangulation of a surface is k-irreducible if every non-contractible curve has length at least k and any edge contraction breaks this property. Equivalently, every edge belongs to a non-contractible curve of length k and there are no…
For a graph $G$, let $S_2(G)$ be the sum of the first two largest signless Laplacian eigenvalues of $G$, and $f(G)=e(G)+3-S_2(G)$. Very recently, Zhou, He and Shan proved that $K^+_{1,n-1}$ (the star graph with an additional edge) is the…
A graph is $k$-planar if it can be drawn in the plane such that no edge is crossed more than $k$ times. While for $k=1$, optimal $1$-planar graphs, i.e., those with $n$ vertices and exactly $4n-8$ edges, have been completely characterized,…
We present two results related to an edge-isoperimetric question for Cayley graphs on the integer lattice asked by Ben Barber and Joshua Erde [Isoperimetry of Integer Lattices, Discrete Analysis 7 (2018)]. For any (undirected) graph $G$,…
A 1-planar graph is a graph which has a drawing on the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. If a 1-planar graph is drawn in that way, the drawing is called a {\it 1-plane graph}. A graph is maximal 1-plane (or 1-planar) if no…
Paul Erd\H{o}s suggested the following problem: Determine or estimate the number of maximal triangle-free graphs on $n$ vertices. Here we show that the number of maximal triangle-free graphs is at most $2^{n^2/8+o(n^2)}$, which matches the…
Flips in triangulations have received a lot of attention over the past decades. However, the problem of tracking where particular edges go during the flipping process has not been addressed. We examine this question by attaching unique…
We find the minimum number $k=\mu'(\Sigma)$ for any surface $\Sigma$, such that every $\Sigma$-embeddable non-bipartite graph is not $k$-extendable. In particular, we construct the so-called bow-tie graphs $C_6\bowtie P_n$, and show that…
A $k$-regular graph of girth $g$ is called edge-girth-regular graph, shortly egr-graph, if each of its edges is contained in exactly $\lambda$ distinct $g-$cycles. An egr-graph is called extremal for the triple $(k, g, \lambda)$ if has the…
A k-outerplanar graph is a graph that can be drawn in the plane without crossing such that after k-fold removal of the vertices on the outer-face there are no vertices left. In this paper, we study how to triangulate a k-outerplanar graph…
A graph drawn in the plane is called k-quasi-planar if it does not contain k pairwise crossing edges. It has been conjectured for a long time that for every fixed k, the maximum number of edges of a k-quasi-planar graph with n vertices is…
We study graphs where each edge adjacent to a vertex of small degree (7 and 9, respectively) belongs to many triangles (4 and 5, respectively) and show that these graphs contain a complete graph (K_6 and K_7, respectively) as a minor. The…
A well-known result of Mantel asserts that every $n$-vertex triangle-free graph $G$ has at most $\lfloor n^2/4 \rfloor$ edges. Moreover, Erd\H{o}s proved that if $G$ is further non-bipartite, then $e(G)\le \lfloor {(n-1)^2}/{4}\rfloor +1$.…
We prove two results: 1. A graph $G$ on at least seven vertices with a vertex $v$ such that $G-v$ is planar and $t$ triangles satisfies $|E(G)| \leq 3|V(G)|- 9 + t/3$. 2. For $p=2,3,\ldots,9$, a triangle-free graph $G$ on at least $2p-5$…
A drawing of a graph is $k$-plane if no edge is crossed more than $k$ times. In this paper we study saturated $k$-plane drawings with few edges. This are $k$-plane drawings in which no edge can be added without violating $k$-planarity. For…
A graph $G$ is \emph{uniquely k-colorable} if the chromatic number of $G$ is $k$ and $G$ has only one $k$-coloring up to permutation of the colors. A uniquely $k$-colorable graph $G$ is edge-critical if $G-e$ is not a uniquely $k$-colorable…
We show that on any Riemann surface S of genus g>1 any nonsingular even spin bundle defines e-foloation of S. When a surface is hyperelliptic then all leaves of this foliation are finite and almost all of them consists of 2g+2 points.…
The Tur\'an problem asks for the largest number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph not containing a fixed forbidden subgraph $F$. We construct a new family of graphs not containing $K_{s,t}$, for $t= C^s$, with $\Omega(n^{2-1/s})$ edges…
We present new infinite families of expander graphs of vertex degree 4, which is the minimal possible degree for Cayley graph expanders. Our first family defines a tower of coverings (with covering indices equals 2) and our second family is…
An orientation of $G$ is a digraph obtained from $G$ by replacing each edge by exactly one of two possible arcs with the same endpoints. We call an orientation \emph{proper} if neighbouring vertices have different in-degrees. The proper…
