We study the energy per vertex in regular graphs. For every k, we give an upper bound for the energy per vertex of a k-regular graph, and show that a graph attains the upper bound if and only if it is the disjoint union of incidence graphs…

A continuous map from R^m to R^N or from C^m to C^N is called k-regular if the images of any $k$ points are linearly independent. Given integers m and k a problem going back to Chebyshev and Borsuk is to determine the minimal value of N for…

A graph $G$ is said to be $k$-extendable if every matching of size $k$ in $G$ can be extended to a perfect matching of $G$, where $k$ is a positive integer. We say $G$ is $1$-excludable if for every edge $e$ of $G$, there exists a perfect…

In this note, we consider the problem of generating $k$-factorable graphic sequences with connected (resp. no connected) $k$-factors.

One of the major problems in combinatorics is to determine the number of $r$-uniform hypergraphs ($r$-graphs) on $n$ vertices which are free of certain forbidden structures. This problem dates back to the work of Erd\H{o}s, Kleitman and…

We revisit the classical question of the relationship between the diameter of a graph and its expansion properties. One direction is well understood: expander graphs exhibit essentially the lowest possible diameter. We focus on the reverse…

Let $G$ be a 3-partite graph with $k$ vertices in each part and suppose that between any two parts, there is no cycle of length four. Fischer and Matou\u{s}ek asked for the maximum number of triangles in such a graph. A simple construction…

We introduce a method to embed edge-colored graphs into families of expander graphs, which generalizes a framework developed by Dragani\'c, Krivelevich, and Nenadov (2022). As an application, we show that each family of sufficiently…

We discuss two combinatorical ways of generalizing the definition of expander graphs and Ramanujan graphs, to quotients of buildings of higher dimension. The two possible definitions are equivalent for affine buildings, giving the notion of…

We address the problem proposed by Chartrand, Erd\H{o}s and Oellermann (1988) about the existence of regular $K_3$-irregular graphs. We first establish bounds on the $K_3$-degrees of such graphs and use them to prove that there are no such…

Let $G$ be a large-girth $d$-regular graph and $\mu$ be a random process on the vertices of $G$ produced by a randomized local algorithm. We prove the upper bound $(k+1-2k/d)\Bigl(\frac{1}{\sqrt{d-1}}\Bigr)^k$ for the (absolute value of…

A graph is $k$-gap-planar if it has a drawing in the plane such that every crossing can be charged to one of the two edges involved so that at most $k$ crossings are charged to each edge. We show this class of graphs has linear expansion.…

Let $k$, $m$ and $r$ be three integers such that $2\leq k\leq m\leq r$. Let $G$ be a $2r$-regular, $2m$-edge-connected graph of odd order. We obtain some sufficient conditions, which guarantee $G-v$ contains a $k$-factor for all $v\in…

A graph G on n vertices is said to be extendable if G can be modified to form a new graph H on more than n vertices, while preserving the degrees of the vertices common to G and H. The added vertices all have the same degree and we define…

For $\textbf{r}=(r_1,\ldots,r_k)$, an $\textbf{r}$-factorization of the complete $\lambda$-fold $h$-uniform $n$-vertex hypergraph $\lambda K_n^h$ is a partition of the edges of $\lambda K_n^h$ into $F_1,\ldots, F_k$ such that $F_j$ is…

Given a constant $\alpha>0$, an $n$-vertex graph is called an $\alpha$-expander if every set $X$ of at most $n/2$ vertices in $G$ has an external neighborhood of size at least $\alpha|X|$. Addressing a question posed by Friedman and…

Strongly regular graphs are highly symmetrical and can be described fully with just a few parameters, yet the existence of many of them is still under the question. In this paper, we continue the study of the famuly of strongly regular…

We derive several upper bounds on the spectral gap of the Laplacian with standard or Dirichlet vertex conditions on compact metric graphs. In particular, we obtain estimates based on the length of a shortest cycle (girth), diameter, total…

We give a new lower bound on the expansion coefficient of an edge-vertex graph of a $d$-regular graph. As a consequence, we obtain an improvement on the lower bound on relative minimum distance of the expander codes constructed by Sipser…

Bourgain and Yehudayoff recently constructed $O(1)$-monotone bipartite expanders. By combining this result with a generalisation of the unraveling method of Kannan, we construct 3-monotone bipartite expanders, which is best possible. We…
