Given a graph $G$, a set is $\Delta$-convex if there is no vertex $u\in V(G)\setminus S$ forming a triangle with two vertices of $S$. The $\Delta$-convex hull of $S$ is the minimum $\Delta$-convex set containing $S$. This article is an…

Let $G$ be a graph and $S \subseteq V(G)$. In the cycle convexity, we say that $S$ is \textit{cycle convex} if for any $u\in V(G)\setminus S$, the induced subgraph of $S\cup\{u\}$ contains no cycle that includes $u$. The \textit{cycle…

Let $D$ be an orientation of a simple graph. Given $u,v\in V(D)$, a directed shortest $(u,v)$-path is a $(u,v)$-geodesic. $S \subseteq V(D)$ is convex if, for every $u,v \in S$, the vertices in each $(u,v)$-geodesic and in each…

Let $G$ be a finite, simple, and undirected graph and let $S$ be a set of vertices of $G$. In the geodetic convexity, a set of vertices $S$ of a graph $G$ is convex if all vertices belonging to any shortest path between two vertices of $S$…

A set S of vertices of a connected graph G is convex, if for any pair of vertices u; v 2 S, every shortest path joining u and v is contained in S . The convex hull CH(S) of a set of vertices S is defined as the smallest convex set in G…

A set C of vertices of a graph is P_3-convex if every vertex outside C has at most one neighbor in C. The convex hull \sigma(A) of a set A is the smallest P_3-convex set that contains A. A set M is convexly independent if for every vertex x…

Let $G$ be a graph and $S \subseteq V(G)$. In the cycle convexity, we say that $S$ is \textit{cycle convex} if for any $u\in V(G)\setminus S$, the induced subgraph of $S\cup\{u\}$ contains no cycle that includes $u$. The \textit{cycle…

We show that the Carath\'eodory number for $H$-convexity is the maximum of two parameters: the Helly number for $H$-convexity and the cone number of $H$. The cone number in this article is defined as the maximal number of points of $H$ in…

We prove three results conjectured or stated by Chartrand, Fink and Zhang [European J. Combin {\bf 21} (2000) 181--189, Disc. Appl. Math. {\bf 116} (2002) 115--126, and pre-print of ``The hull number of an oriented graph'']. For a digraph…

The Carath\'eodory number k(K) of a pointed closed convex cone K is the minimum among all the k for which every element of K can be written as a nonnegative linear combination of at most k elements belonging to extreme rays.…

An $L(h_1, h_2, \ldots, h_l)$-labelling of a graph $G$ is a mapping $\phi: V(G) \rightarrow \{0, 1, 2, \ldots\}$ such that for $1\le i\le l$ and each pair of vertices $u, v$ of $G$ at distance $i$, we have $|\phi(u) - \phi(v)| \geq h_i$.…

The size-Ramsey number $\hat{r}(H)$ of a graph $H$ is the smallest number of edges a (host) graph $G$ can have, such that for any red/blue colouring of $G$, there is a monochromatic copy of $H$ in $G$. Recently, Conlon, Nenadov and Truji\'c…

Given a graph $G$ and a set $S \subseteq V(G)$, we say that $S$ is $\Delta$-convex if the neighborhood of every vertex not in $S$ is an independent set. A collection ${\cal V} = (V_1, V_2, \ldots , V_p)$ of convex sets of $G$ is a convex…

For a non-negative integer $s\le |V(G)|-3$, a graph $G$ is $s$-Hamiltonian if the removal of any $k\le s$ vertices results in a Hamiltonian graph. Given a connected simple graph $G$ that is not isomorphic to a path, a cycle, or a $K_{1,3}$,…

The $P_3$-hull number of a graph is the minimum cardinality of an infecting set of vertices that will eventually infect the entire graph under the rule that uninfected nodes become infected if two or more neighbors are infected. In this…

The toughness of a noncomplete graph $G$ is the maximum real number $t$ such that the ratio of $|S|$ to the number of components of $G-S$ is at least $t$ for every cutset $S$ of $G$, and the toughness of a complete graph is defined to be…

A tree $T$ in an edge-colored graph is a {\it proper tree} if no two adjacent edges of $T$ receive the same color. Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ and $k$ be a fixed integer with $2\le k\le n$. For a vertex subset $S \subseteq…

For a graph $G$ let $\gamma (G)$ be its domination number. We define a graph G to be (i) a hypo-efficient domination graph (or a hypo-$\mathcal{ED}$ graph) if $G$ has no efficient dominating set (EDS) but every graph formed by removing a…

A code is a subset of the vertex set of a Hamming graph. The set of $s$-neighbours of a code is the set of all vertices at Hamming distance $s$ from their nearest codeword. A code $C$ is $s$-elusive if there exists a distinct code $C'$ that…

Let $t>0$ be a real number and $G$ be a graph. We say $G$ is $t$-tough if for every cutset $S$ of $G$, the ratio of $|S|$ to the number of components of $G-S$ is at least $t$. Determining toughness is an NP-hard problem for arbitrary…
