This survey on graphs of large girth consists of two parts. The first deals with some aspects of algebraic and extremal graph theory loosely related to the Moore bound. Our point of departure for the second, Ramsey theoretic, part are some…
The Moore bound constitutes both an upper bound on the order of a graph of maximum degree $d$ and diameter $D=k$ and a lower bound on the order of a graph of minimum degree $d$ and odd girth $g=2k+1$. Graphs missing or exceeding the Moore…
Degree ssortativity is the tendency for nodes of high degree (resp.low degree) in a graph to be connected to high degree nodes (resp. to low degree ones). It is sually quantified by the Pearson correlation coefficient of the degree-degree…
A new kind of diagrams is presented, showing the causal structure of bimetric interactions.
An unfriendly partition of a graph $G = (V,E)$ is a function $c: V \to 2$ such that $|\{x\in N(v): c(x)\neq c(v)\}|\geq |\{x\in N(v): c(x)=c(v)\}|$ for every vertex $v\in V$, where $N(v)$ denotes its neighborhood. It was conjectured by…
We define a new graph invariant called the scramble number. We show that the scramble number of a graph is a lower bound for the gonality and an upper bound for the treewidth. Unlike the treewidth, the scramble number is not minor monotone,…
In this paper, we present a minimal chordal completion $G^*$ of a graph $G$ satisfying the inequality $\omega(G^*) - \omega(G) \le i(G)$ for the non-chordality index $i(G)$ of $G$. In terms of our chordal completions, we partially settle…
We consider the family of undirected Cayley graphs associated with odd cyclic groups, and study statistics for the eigenvalues in their spectra. Our results are motivated by analogies between arithmetic geometry and graph theory.
We establish a sharp lower bound on the first non-trivial eigenvalue of the Laplacian on a metric graph equipped with natural (i.e., continuity and Kirchhoff) vertex conditions in terms of the diameter and the total length of the graph.…
This article investigates the connectivity dimension of a graph. We introduce this concept in analogy to the metric dimension of a graph, providing a graph parameter that measures the heterogeneity of the connectivity structure of a graph.…
Mixed graphs can be seen as digraphs that have both arcs and edges (or digons, that is, two opposite arcs). In this paper, we consider the case in which such graphs are Cayley graphs of Abelian groups. These groups can be constructed by…
Multi-layer graphs consist of several graphs (layers) over the same vertex set. They are motivated by real-world problems where entities (vertices) are associated via multiple types of relationships (edges in different layers). We chart the…
We compute the treewidth of a family of graphs we refer to as the glued grids, consisting of the stacked prism graphs and the toroidal grids. Our main technique is constructing strict brambles of large orders. We discuss connections to…
In this paper we study a new class of bases, weaker than quasi-greedy bases, which retain their unconditionality properties and can provide the same optimality for the thresholding greedy algorithm. We measure how far these bases are from…
The problem of measuring similarity of graphs and their nodes is important in a range of practical problems. There is a number of proposed measures, some of them being based on iterative calculation of similarity between two graphs and the…
A centrality measure of the cut-edges of an undirected graph, given in [Altafini et al.~SIMAX 2023] and based on Kemeny's constant, is revisited. A numerically more stable expression is given to compute this measure, and an explicit…
Let $B=(X,Y,E)$ be a bipartite graph. A half-square of $B$ has one color class of $B$ as vertex set, say $X$; two vertices are adjacent whenever they have a common neighbor in $Y$. Every planar graph is a half-square of a planar bipartite…
For a given graph $G$, the metric and edge metric dimensions of $G$, $\dim(G)$ and ${\rm edim}(G)$, are the cardinalities of the smallest possible subsets of vertices in $V(G)$ such that they uniquely identify the vertices and the edges of…
We establish new bounds on the minimum number of distinct eigenvalues among real symmetric matrices with nonzero off-diagonal pattern described by the edges of a graph and apply these to determine the minimum number of distinct eigenvalues…
We investigate the structure of conformally rigid graphs. Graphs are conformally rigid if introducing edge weights cannot increase (decrease) the second (last) eigenvalue of the Graph Laplacian. Edge-transitive graphs and distance-regular…
