In 1966, Cummins introduced the "tree graph": the tree graph $\mathbf{T}(G)$ of a graph $G$ (possibly infinite) has all its spanning trees as vertices, and distinct such trees correspond to adjacent vertices if they differ in just one edge,…
In this paper, we define invariants of links in terms of colorings of link diagrams and prove that these invariants coincide with various notions of widths of links with respect to the standard Morse function. Our formulations are…
A graph is said to be a segment graph if its vertices can be mapped to line segments in the plane such that two vertices have an edge between them if and only if their corresponding line segments intersect. Kratochv\'{i}l and Kub\v{e}na…
We show that if a subset $\Psi$ of the ends of a graph $G$ can be displayed by a tree-decomposition of finite adhesion, then it can also be displayed by a linked such tree-decomposition. This tree-decomposition captures all combinatorial…
This paper studies the structure of graphs with given tree-width and excluding a fixed complete bipartite subgraph, which generalises the bounded degree setting. We give a new structural description of such graphs in terms of so-called…
A dissociation set of a graph is a set of vertices which induces a subgraph with maximum degree less than or equal to one. The dissociation number of a graph is the maximum cardinality of its dissociation sets. In this paper, we study the…
We consider drawings of graphs that contain dense subgraphs. We introduce intersection-link representations for such graphs, in which each vertex $u$ is represented by a geometric object $R(u)$ and in which each edge $(u,v)$ is represented…
The leafage of a digraph is the minimum number of leaves in a host tree in which it has a subtree intersection representation. We discuss bounds on the leafage in terms of other parameters (including Ferrers dimension), obtaining a string…
In this paper, we define a class of auxiliary graphs associated with simple undirected graphs. This class of auxiliary graphs is based on the set of spanning trees of the original graph and the edges constituting those spanning trees. A…
We characterize clique trees of a chordal graph in their relation to simplicial vertices and perfect sequences of maximal cliques. We investigate boundary cliques defined by Shibata and clarify their relation to endpoints of clique trees.…
It is shown that shift graphs can be realized as disjointness graphs of 1-intersecting curves in the plane. This implies that the latter class of graphs is not $\chi$-bounded.
We calculate the intersection ring of three-dimensional graph manifolds with rational coefficients and give an algebraic characterization of these rings when the manifold's underlying graph is a tree. We are able to use this…
Grid intersection graphs are the intersection graphs of vertical and horizontal segments in the plane. When the bottom and respectively left endpoints of the vertical and horizontals segments belong to a line with negative slope, the graph…
The overlap graphs of subtrees of a tree are equivalent to subtree filament graphs, the overlap graphs of subtrees of a star are cocomparability graphs, and the overlap graphs of subtrees of a caterpillar are interval filament graphs. In…
We discuss a recursive formula for number of spanning trees in a graph. The paper is written primary for school students.
Compound graphs are networks in which vertices can be grouped into larger subsets, with these subsets capable of further grouping, resulting in a nesting that can be many levels deep. In several applications, including biological workflows,…
We study Thurston equivalence classes of quadratic post-critically finite branched coverings. For these maps, we introduce and study invariant spanning trees. We give a computational procedure for searching for invariant spanning trees.…
We prove that if a finite order knot invariant does not distinguish mutant knots, then the corresponding weight system depends on the intersection graph of a chord diagram rather than on the diagram itself. The converse statement is easy…
For any connected multigraph $G=(V,E)$ and any $M\subseteq E$, if $M$ induces an acyclic subgraph of $G$ and removing all edges in $M$ yields a subgraph of $G$ whose components are complete graphs, a formula for $\tau_G(M)$ is obtained,…
Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$. A spanning $k$-tree of $G$ is a spanning tree with the maximum degree at most $k$, and a spanning $k$-ended-tree of $G$ is a spanning tree at most $k$ leaves, where $k\geq2$ is an integer. This…
