Let $G$ be a finite, connected graph. An arithmetical structure on $G$ is a pair of positive integer-valued vectors $(\mathbf{d},\mathbf{r})$ such that $(\text{diag}(\mathbf{d})-A_G)\cdot \mathbf{r}=\textbf{0},$ where the entries of…

An $n$-vertex graph is degree 3-critical if it has $2n - 2$ edges and no proper induced subgraph with minimum degree at least 3. In 1988, Erd\H{o}s, Faudree, Gy\'arf\'as, and Schelp asked whether one can always find cycles of all short…

The problem of modifying a given graph to satisfy certain properties has been one of the central topics in parameterized tractability study. In this paper, we study the cycle contraction problem, which makes a graph into a cycle by edge…

The spectral excess theorem states that, in a regular graph G, the average excess, which is the mean of the numbers of vertices at maximum distance from a vertex, is bounded above by the spectral excess (a number that is computed by using…

Let $k\geq2$ be an integer. A tree $T$ is called a $k$-tree if $d_T(v)\leq k$ for each $v\in V(T)$, that is, the maximum degree of a $k$-tree is at most $k$. Let $\lambda_1(D(G))$ denote the distance spectral radius in $G$, where $D(G)$…

The notion of forbidden-transition graphs allows for a robust generalization of walks in graphs. In a forbidden-transition graph, every pair of edges incident to a common vertex is permitted or forbidden; a walk is compatible if all pairs…

The eccentricity matrix $\varepsilon(G)$ of a graph $G$ is obtained from the distance matrix by retaining the eccentricities (the largest distance) in each row and each column. In this paper, we give a characterization of the star graph,…

An Euclidean greedy embedding of a graph is a straight-line embedding in the plane, such that for every pair of vertices $s$ and $t$, the vertex $s$ has a neighbor $v$ with smaller distance to $t$ than $s$. This drawing style is motivated…

We propose a framework for thinking about eccentricity in terms of blocks. We extend the familiar definitions of radius and center to blocks and verify that a central block contains all central points. We classify graphs into two types…

Let $\mu(G)$ denote the spectral radius of a graph $G$. We partly confirm a conjecture due to Nikiforov, which is a spectral radius analogue of the well-known Erd\H{o}s-S\'os Conjecture that any tree of order $t$ is contained in a graph of…

Let $G$ be a connected graph with order $n$ and size $m$. Let $D(G)$ and $Tr(G)$ be the distance matrix and diagonal matrix with vertex transmissions of $G$, respectively. For any real $\alpha\in[0,1]$, the generalized distance matrix…

Current methods of graph signal processing rely heavily on the specific structure of the underlying network: the shift operator and the graph Fourier transform are both derived directly from a specific graph. In many cases, the network is…

The circumference of a graph $G$ is the length of a longest cycle in $G$, or $+\infty$ if $G$ has no cycle. Birmel\'e (2003) showed that the treewidth of a graph $G$ is at most its circumference minus $1$. We strengthen this result for…

A strong edge coloring of a graph $G$ is a proper edge coloring of $G$ such that every color class is an induced matching. The minimum number of colors required is termed the strong chromatic index. In this paper, we determine the exact…

A $d$-regular graph $X$ is called $d$-rainbow domination regular or $d$-RDR, if its $d$-rainbow domination number $\gamma_{rd}(X)$ attains the lower bound $n/2$ for $d$-regular graphs, where $n$ is the number of vertices. In the paper, two…

We analyze spectral properties of a quantum graph in the form of a ring chain with a $\delta$ coupling in the vertices exposed to a homogeneous magnetic field perpendicular to the graph plane. We find the band spectrum in the case when the…

A graph is called $K$-almost regular if its maximum degree is at most $K$ times the minimum degree. Erd\H{o}s and Simonovits showed that for a constant $0< \varepsilon< 1$ and a sufficiently large integer $n$, any $n$-vertex graph with more…

We present a nice result on the probability of a cycle occurring in a randomly generated graph. We then provide some extensions and applications, including the proof of the famous Cayley formula, which states that the number of labeled…

Let $n,m$ be integers such that $1\leq m\leq (n-2)/2$ and let $[n]=\{1,\ldots,n\}$. Let $\mathcal{G}=\{G_1,\ldots,G_{m+1}\}$ be a family of graphs on the same vertex set $[n]$. In this paper, we prove that if for any $i\in [m+1]$, the…

The $f$ adjacency matrix is a type of edge-weighted adjacency matrix, whose weight of an edge $ij$ is $f(d_i,d_j)$, where $f$ is a real symmetric function and $d_i,d_j$ are the degrees of vertex $i$ and vertex $j$. The $f$-spectral radius…
