Previously, the graph permanent was introduced as a single-valued invariant for graphs $G$ with $|E(G)| = k(|V(G)|-1)$ for some $k \in \mathbb{Z}_{>0}$. Herein, we construct the extended graph permanent, an infinite sequence for all graphs.…

In this paper, we show that if $k\geq (\nu+2)/4$, where $\nu$ denotes the order of a graph, a non-bipartite graph $G$ is $k$-extendable if and only if it is $2k$-factor-critical. If $k\geq (\nu-3)/4$, a graph $G$ is $k\ 1/2$-extendable if…

A regular-graph design is a block design for which a pair $\{a,b\}$ of distinct points occurs in $\lambda+1$ or $\lambda$ blocks depending on whether $\{a,b\}$ is or is not an edge of a given $\delta$-regular graph. Our paper describes a…

A continous map $f: \mathbb{C}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{C}^N$ is $k$-regular if the image of any $k$ points spans a $k$-dimensional subspace. It is an important problem in topology and interpolation theory, going back to Borsuk and Chebyshev,…

In this paper, we obtain two spectral upper bounds for the $k$-independence number of a graph which is is the maximum size of a set of vertices at pairwise distance greater than $k$. We construct graphs that attain equality for our first…

A problem proposed by Erd\H{o}s, Fajtlowicz and Staton asks for the smallest $n$ for which every graph on $n$ vertices contains a regular induced subgraph of order at least $k$. A variation is to ask for a regular induced subgraph of order…

An account of 2-factors in graphs and their history is presented. We give a direct graph-theoretic proof of the 2-Factor Theorem and a new variant of it, and also a new complete characterisation of the maximal graphs without 2-factors. This…

We introduce a new method of expressing a $k$-graph $C^*$-algebra as a Cuntz-Pimsner algebra. Kumjian, Pask, and Sims have done this directly, using a linking algebra approach and a $(k-1)$-graph algebra. This can be iterated downward. Our…

The $k$-independence number of a graph is the maximum size of a set of vertices at pairwise distance greater than $k$. A graph is called $k$-partially walk-regular if the number of closed walks of a given length $l\le k$, rooted at a vertex…

We enumerate the independent sets of several classes of regular and almost regular graphs and compute the corresponding generating functions. We also note the relations between these graphs and other combinatorial objects and, in some…

A tree containing exactly two non-pendant vertices is called a double-star. A double-star with degree sequence $(k_1+ 1, k_2+ 1, 1, \ldots, 1)$ is denoted by $S_{k_1, k_2}$. We study the edge-decomposition of regular graphs into…

Given feasible strongly regular graph parameters $(v,k,\lambda,\mu)$ and a non-negative integer $d$, we determine upper and lower bounds on the order of a $d$-regular induced subgraph of any strongly regular graph with parameters…

A graph of order $n$ is said to be $k$-\emph{factor-critical} $(0\le k<n)$ if the removal of any $k$ vertices results in a graph with a perfect matching. A $k$-factor-critical graph $G$ is \emph{minimal} if $G-e$ is not $k$-factor-critical…

The 1-2-3 Conjecture, posed by Karo\'{n}ski, {\L}uczak and Thomason, asked whether every connected graph $G$ different from $K_2$ can be 3-edge-weighted so that every two adjacent vertices of $G$ get distinct sums of incident weights. The…

We give a complete characterisation of the cubic graphs with no eigenvalues in the open interval $(-1,1)$. There are two infinite families, one due to Guo and Mohar [Linear Algebra Appl. 449:68--75] the other due to Koll\'ar and Sarnak…

A queue layout of a graph consists of a linear order on the vertices and an assignment of the edges to queues, such that no two edges in a single queue are nested. The minimum number of queues needed in a queue layout of a graph is called…

Expander graphs, due to their mixing properties, are useful in many algorithms and combinatorial constructions. One can produce an expander graph with high probability by taking a random graph (e.g., the union of $d$ random bijections for a…

A k-regular graph on v vertices is a divisible design graph with parameters (v, k, lambda_1 ,lambda_2, m, n) if its vertex set can be partitioned into m classes of size n, such that any two different vertices from the same class have…

The $k$-deck of a graph is its multiset of induced subgraphs on $k$ vertices. We prove that $n$-vertex graphs with maximum degree $2$ have the same $k$-decks if each cycle has at least $k+1$ vertices, each path component has at least $k-1$…

The purpose of this article is to give a characterization of families of expander graphs via right-angled Artin groups. We prove that a sequence of simplicial graphs $\{\Gamma_i\}_{i\in\mathbb{N}}$ forms a family of expander graphs if and…
