We prove that if $\mathcal{C}$ is a hereditary class of graphs that is polynomially $\chi$-bounded, then the class of graphs that admit decompositions into pieces belonging to $\mathcal{C}$ along cuts of bounded rank is also polynomially…
A \emph{directional labeling} of an edge $\emph{uv}$ in a graph $G=(V,E)$ by an ordered pair $ab$ is a labeling of the edge $uv$ such that the label on $uv$ in the direction from $u$ to $v$ is $\ell(uv)=ab$, and $\ell(vu)=ba$. New…
The "clustered chromatic number" of a class of graphs is the minimum integer $k$ such that for some integer $c$ every graph in the class is $k$-colourable with monochromatic components of size at most $c$. We determine the clustered…
In this paper, we find computational formulae for generalized characteristic polynomials of graph bundles. We show that the number of spanning trees in a graph is the partial derivative (at (0,1)) of the generalized characteristic…
Many hard combinatorial problems can be modeled by a system of polynomial equations. N. Alon coined the term polynomial method to describe the use of nonlinear polynomials when solving combinatorial problems. We continue the exploration of…
The alliance polynomial of a graph $\Gamma$ with order $n$ and maximum degree $\delta_1$ is the polynomial $A(\Gamma; x) = \sum_{k=-\delta_1}^{\delta_1} A_{k}(\Gamma) \, x^{n+k}$, where $A_{k}(\Gamma)$ is the number of exact defensive…
A polynomial algorithm for graphs' isomorphism testing is constructed in assumption that there exists a corresponding polynomial algorithm for graphs with trivial automorphism group.
In this work, we discuss some properties of the eigenvalues of some classes of signed complete graphs. We also obtain the form of characteristic polynomial for these graphs.
This is a note on three graph parameters motivated by the Euler-Poincare characteristic for simplicial complex. We show those three graph parameters of a given connected graph $G$ is greater than or equal to that of the complete graph with…
Mutual visibility in graphs provides a framework for analysing how vertices can observe one another along shortest paths free of internal obstructions. The visibility polynomial, which enumerates mutual-visibility sets of all orders, has…
For a graph representation of a dataset, a straightforward normality measure for a sample can be its graph degree. Considering a weighted graph, degree of a sample is the sum of the corresponding row's values in a similarity matrix. The…
Generalised degrees provide a natural bridge between local and global topological properties of networks. We define the generalised degree to be the number of neighbours of a node within one and two steps respectively. Tailored random graph…
The clustering of a graph coloring is the maximum size of monochromatic components. This paper studies colorings with bounded clustering in graph classes with bounded layered treewidth, which include planar graphs, graphs of bounded Euler…
Graph invariants are a useful tool in graph theory. Not only do they encode useful information about the graphs to which they are associated, but complete invariants can be used to distinguish between non-isomorphic graphs. Polynomial…
A solution to a problem of Erd\H{o}s, Rubin and Taylor is obtained by showing that if a graph $G$ is $(a:b)$-choosable, and $c/d > a/b$, then $G$ is not necessarily $(c:d)$-choosable. The simplest case of another problem, stated by the same…
A univariate graph polynomial P(G;X) is weakly distinguishing if for almost all finite graphs G there is a finite graph H with P(G;X)=P(H;X). We show that the clique polynomial and the independence polynomial are weakly distinguishing.…
Graph polynomials are polynomials assigned to graphs. Interestingly, they also arise in many areas outside graph theory as well. Many properties of graph polynomials have been widely studied. In this paper, we survey some results on the…
A permutation sigma in Sn is a k-derangement if for any subset X = {a1, . . ., ak} \subseteq [n], {sigma(a1), . . ., sigma(ak)} is not equal to X. One can form the k-derangement graph on the set of permutations of Sn by connecting two…
Graph classification aims to categorise graphs based on their structure and node attributes. In this work, we propose to tackle this task using tools from graph signal processing by deriving spectral features, which we then use to design…
The idea that those different from you are "unfriendly" is captured in the definition of unfriendly 2-colorings in graph theory in a paper by Aharoni, Milner and Prikry, where they prove that every finite graph has an unfriendly coloring.…
