A self-contained graph is an infinite graph which is isomorphic to one of its proper induced subgraphs. In this paper, these graphs are studied by presenting some examples and defining some of their sub-structures such as removable…

An {\em odd hole} in a graph is an induced subgraph which is a cycle of odd length at least five. An {\em odd parachute} is a graph obtained from an odd hole $H$ by adding a new edge $uv$ such that $x$ is adjacent to $u$ but not to $v$ for…

An independent set A is maximal if it is not a proper subset of an independent set, while A is maximum if it has a maximum size. The problem of whether a graph has a pair of disjoint maximal independent sets was introduced by C. Berge in…

A graph $G=(V(G), E(G))$ is supereulerian if it has a spanning Eulerian subgraph. Let $\ell(G)$ be the maximum number of edges of spanning Eulerian subgraphs of a supereulerian graph $G$. In $1996$, Catlin conjectured that if $G$ is a…

A subset $C$ of the vertex set $V$ of a graph $\Gamma$ is called a perfect code in $\Gamma$ if every vertex in $V\setminus C$ is adjacent to exactly one vertex in $C$. Given a group $G$ and a subgroup $H$ of $G$, a subgroup $A$ of $G$…

Given a simple graph $G$, denote by $\Delta(G)$, $\delta(G)$, and $\chi'(G)$ the maximum degree, the minimum degree, and the chromatic index of $G$, respectively. We say $G$ is \emph{$\Delta$-critical} if $\chi'(G)=\Delta(G)+1$ and…

A non-complete graph $G$ is said to be $t$-tough if for every vertex cut $S$ of $G$, the ratio of $|S|$ to the number of components of $G-S$ is at least $t$. The toughness $\tau(G)$ of the graph $G$ is the maximum value of $t$ such that $G$…

We say that a graph G has a perfect H-packing (also called an H-factor) if there exists a set of disjoint copies of H in G which together cover all the vertices of G. Given a graph H, we determine, asymptotically, the Ore-type degree…

We prove that every graph $G$ for which $\omega(G) \geq 3/4(\Delta(G) + 1)$, has an independent set $I$ such that $\omega(G - I) < \omega(G)$. It follows that a minimum counterexample $G$ to Reed's conjecture satisfies $\omega(G) <…

In \cite{reed97}, Reed conjectures that the inequality $\chi (G) \leq \left \lceil \textstyle {1/2} (\omega (G) + \Delta (G) + 1) \right \rceil$ holds for any graph $G$. We prove this holds for a graph $G$ if $\bar{G}$ is disconnected. From…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a set of given connected graphs. A graph $G$ is said to be $\mathcal{H}$-free if $G$ contains no $H$ as an induced subgraph for any $H\in \mathcal{H}$. The graph $G$ is super-edge-connected if each minimum edge-cut…

Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices. For $i\in \{0,1\}$ and a connected graph $G$, a spanning forest $F$ of $G$ is called an $i$-perfect forest if every tree in $F$ is an induced subgraph of $G$ and exactly $i$ vertices of $F$ have even…

A graph G = (V,E) is called fully regular if for every independent set $I\subset V$ , the number of vertices in $V\setminus$ I that are not connected to any element of I depends only on the size of I. A linear ordering of the vertices of G…

A set S of vertices in a graph G is a dominating set of G if every vertex not in S is adjacent to a vertex in S . The domination number of G, denoted by $\gamma$(G), is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set in G. In a breakthrough…

We characterize the graphs $G$ for which their toric ideals $I_G$ are complete intersections. In particular we prove that for a connected graph $G$ such that $I_G$ is complete intersection all of its blocks are bipartite except of at most…

A graph $H$ is ubiquitous if for every graph $G$ that for every natural number $n$ contains $n$ vertex-disjoint $H$-minors contains infinitely many vertex-disjoint $H$-minors. Andreae conjectured that every locally finite graph is…

A perfect graph is a graph which every induced subgraph has clique number equal to chromatic number. In this paper, I will introduce a new family of graphs, the quasiperfect graphs which generalizes the perfect graphs.

In this paper, we generalize the concept of {\it{perfect graphs}} to other parameters related to graph vertex coloring. This idea was introduced by Christen and Selkow in 1979 and Yegnanarayanan in 2001. Let $ a,b \in \{ \omega, \chi,…

For a given graph $H$, we say that a graph $G$ has a perfect $H$-subdivision tiling if $G$ contains a collection of vertex-disjoint subdivisions of $H$ covering all vertices of $G.$ Let $\delta_{\mathrm{sub}}(n, H)$ be the smallest integer…

A path in an edge-colored graph is called a proper path if no two adjacent edges of the path receive the same color. For a connected graph $G$, the proper connection number $pc(G)$ of $G$ is defined as the minimum number of colors needed to…
