For digraphs $D$ and $H$, a mapping $f: V(D)\dom V(H)$ is a homomorphism of $D$ to $H$ if $uv\in A(D)$ implies $f(u)f(v)\in A(H).$ For a fixed digraph $H$, the homomorphism problem is to decide whether an input digraph $D$ admits a…

A structure $\cal S$ is quasi-projective if for every structure $\cal T$, for every homomorphism $f : {\cal S} \rightarrow {\cal T}$ and every epimorphism $j: {\cal S}\rightarrow {\cal T}$ there is an endomorphism $\phi$ of $\cal S$ such…

Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices. An induced subgraph $H$ of $G$ is called heavy if there exist two nonadjacent vertices in $H$ with degree sum at least $n$ in $G$. We say that $G$ is $H$-heavy if every induced subgraph of $G$ isomorphic…

The Nash-Williams conjecture establishes degree sequence conditions ensuring Hamilton cycles in digraphs. An asymptotic version of this conjecture for large digraphs was independently derived by several researchers. We strengthen these…

In the $(G,H)$-isomorphism game, a verifier interacts with two non-communicating players (called provers) by privately sending each of them a random vertex from either $G$ or $H$, whose aim is to convince the verifier that two graphs $G$…

Given a pair of graphs $\textbf{A}$ and $\textbf{B}$, the problems of deciding whether there exists either a homomorphism or an isomorphism from $\textbf{A}$ to $\textbf{B}$ have received a lot of attention. While graph homomorphism is…

A digraph $H$ is a ``semi-strong minor'' of another, $G$, if a subdivision of $H$ can be obtained from a subdigraph of $G$ by contracting strongly-connected subdigraphs to single vertices. We will define a width measure of ``plane''…

Let ${\cal H}(A,B)$ denote the set of homomorphisms from the poset $A$ to the poset $B$. In previous studies, the author has started to analyze what it is in the structure of finite posets $R$ and $S$ that results in $# {\cal H}(P,R) \leq #…

A fundamental result in the study of graph homomorphisms is Lov\'asz's theorem that two graphs are isomorphic if and only if they admit the same number of homomorphisms from every graph. A line of work extending Lov\'asz's result to more…

We prove that the order complex of a geometric lattice has a convex ear decomposition. As a consequence, if D(L) is the order complex of a rank (r+1) geometric lattice L, then for all i \leq r/2 the h-vector of D(L) satisfies h(i-1) \leq…

For a given $2$-partition $(V_1,V_2)$ of the vertices of a (di)graph $G$, we study properties of the spanning bipartite subdigraph $B_G(V_1,V_2)$ of $G$ induced by those arcs/edges that have one end in each $V_i$. We determine, for all…

We unify several seemingly different graph and digraph classes under one umbrella. These classes are all broadly speaking different generalizations of interval graphs, and include, in addition to interval graphs, also adjusted interval…

Let $G = V, E$ be a simple connected undirected graph. A set $X \subseteq V$ is \emph{geodesically convex} if for any pair of vertices $x, y \in X$, all vertices on all shortest paths in $G$ from $x$ to $y$ are contained in $X$. A set $H…

Given a measurable space (X, M) there is a (Galois) connection between sub-sigma-algebras of M and equivalence relations on X. On the other hand equivalence relations on X are closely related to congruences on stochastic relations. In…

Let $G=(V,A)$ be a digraph. For $X\subseteq V$, the subdigraph of $G$ induced by $X$ is denoted by $G[X]$. A subset $I$ of $V$ is an interval of $G$ if for every $a,b \in I$ and $x \in V \setminus I$, $(x,a) \in A$ if and only if $(x,b) \in…

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and edge set $E(G)$. A family $\mathcal{S}$ of nonempty sets $\{S_1,\ldots,S_n\}$ is a set representation of $G$ if there exists a one-to-one correspondence between the vertices $v_1, \ldots, v_n$…

We prove the discrete Lusternik-Schnirelmann theorem telling that tcat(G) less or equal to crit(G) for a general simple graph G=(V,E). It relates the minimal number tcat(G) of in G contractible graphs covering G, with crit(G), the minimal…

In this note, we introduce a relative (or Lagrangian) version of the Seidel homomorphism that assigns to each homotopy class of paths in Ham(M), starting at the identity and ending on the subgroup that preserves a given Lagrangian…

Sidorenko's conjecture states that for every bipartite graph $H$ on $\{1,\cdots,k\}$, $\int \prod_{(i,j)\in E(H)} h(x_i, y_j) d\mu^{|V(H)|} \ge \left( \int h(x,y) \,d\mu^2 \right)^{|E(H)|}$ holds, where $\mu$ is the Lebesgue measure on…

An edge-weighted graph $G$, possibly with loops, is said to be antiferromagnetic if it has nonnegative weights and at most one positive eigenvalue, counting multiplicities. The number of graph homomorphisms from a graph $H$ to an…
