In this note we give a combinatorial characterization of all the unmixed bipartite graphs.
An embedding of a graph on an orientable surface is orientably-regular (or rotary, in an equivalent terminology) if the group of orientation-preserving automorphisms of the embedding is transitive (and hence regular) on incident vertex-edge…
Median graphs are connected graphs in which for all three vertices there is a unique vertex that belongs to shortest paths between each pair of these three vertices. In this paper we provide several novel characterizations of planar median…
A labelled, undirected graph is a graph whose edges have assigned labels, from a specific set. Given a labelled, undirected graph, the well-known minimum labelling spanning tree problem is aimed at finding the spanning tree of the graph…
Metrically homogeneous graphs are connected graphs which, when endowed with the path metric, are homogeneous as metric spaces. In this paper we introduce the concept of twisted automorphisms, a notion of isomorphism up to a permutation of…
Dotted graphs are certain finite graphs with vertices of degree 2 called dots in the $xy$-plane $\mathbb{R}^2$, and a dotted graph is said to be admissible if it is associated with a lattice polytope in $\mathbb{R}^2$ each of whose edge is…
A graph is a data structure composed of dots (i.e. vertices) and lines (i.e. edges). The dots and lines of a graph can be organized into intricate arrangements. The ability for a graph to denote objects and their relationships to one…
A signed graph is a graph whose edges are labeled either positive or negative. Corresponding to the two signed distance matrices defined for signed graphs, we define two signed distance laplacian matrices. We characterize balance in signed…
In this work we provide a decomposition theorem for the class of quaternary and non-binary signed-graphic matroids. This generalizes previous results for binary signed-graphic matroids and graphic matroids, and it provides the theoretical…
Given a graph $G = (V, E)$, a set $S \subseteq V \cup E$ of vertices and edges is called a mixed dominating set if every vertex and edge that is not included in $S$ happens to be adjacent or incident to a member of $S$. The mixed domination…
We define the crossing graph of a given embedded graph (such as a road network) to be a graph with a vertex for each edge of the embedding, with two crossing graph vertices adjacent when the corresponding two edges of the embedding cross…
Cotransversal matroids are a family of matroids that arise from planted graphs. We prove that two planted graphs give the same cotransversal matroid if and only if they can be obtained from each other by a series of local moves.
It is well known that not every combinatorial configuration admits a geometric realization with points and lines. Moreover, some of them do not even admit realizations with pseudoline arrangements, i.e., they are not topological. In this…
In a graph G, the cardinality of the smallest ordered set of vertices that distinguishes every element of V (G)[E(G) is called the mixed metric dimension of G. In this paper we first establish the exact value of the mixed metric dimension…
Radial Moore graphs and digraphs are extremal graphs related to the Moore ones where the distance-preserving spanning tree is preserved for some vertices. This leads to classify them according to their proximity to being a Moore graph or…
Graph embedding algorithms are used to efficiently represent (encode) a graph in a low-dimensional continuous vector space that preserves the most important properties of the graph. One aspect that is often overlooked is whether the graph…
Abstract separation systems are a new unifying framework in which separations of graph, matroids and other combinatorial structures can be expressed and studied. We characterize the abstract separation systems that have representations as…
We analyze combinatorial structures which play a central role in determining spectral properties of the volume operator in loop quantum gravity (LQG). These structures encode geometrical information of the embedding of arbitrary valence…
In this thesis we consider ordered graphs (that is, graphs with a fixed linear ordering on their vertices). We summarize and further investigations on the number of edges an ordered graph may have while avoiding a fixed forbidden ordered…
The study of hypergraphs has received a lot of attention over the past few years, however up until recently there has been no interest in systems where higher order interactions are not undirected. In this article we introduce the notion of…
