The Kelmans-Seymour conjecture states that the 5-connected nonplanar graphs contain a subdivided $K_{_5}$. Certain questions of Mader propose a "plan" towards a possible resolution of this conjecture. One part of this plan is to show that a…

Let $G$ be a contraction critically quasi $5$-connected graph on at least $14$ vertices. If there is a vertex $x\in V_{4}(G)$ such that $G[N_{G}(x)]\cong K_{1,3}$ or $G[N_{G}(x)]\cong C_{4}$, then $G$ has a quasi $5$-contractible subgraph…

A k-tree is either a complete graph on (k+1) vertices or given a k-tree G' with n vertices, a k-tree G with (n+1) vertices can be constructed by introducing a new vertex v and picking a k-clique Q in G' and then joining each vertex u in Q.…

We study edge-decompositions of highly connected graphs into copies of a given tree. In particular we attack the following conjecture by Bar\'at and Thomassen: for each tree $T$, there exists a natural number $k_T$ such that if $G$ is a…

We consider the structure of $H$-free subgraphs of graphs with high minimal degree. We prove that for every $k>m$ there exists an $\epsilon:=\epsilon(k,m)>0$ so that the following holds. For every graph $H$ with chromatic number $k$ from…

Let $T$ be a tree. A vertex of degree one is a \emph{leaf} of $T$ and a vertex of degree at least three is a \emph{branch vertex} of $T$. A graph is said to be \emph{$K_{1,4}$-free} if it does not contain $K_{1,4}$ as an induced subgraph.…

For a graph $H$ and a $k$-chromatic graph $F,$ if the Tur\'an graph $T_{k-1}(n)$ has the maximum number of copies of $H$ among all $n$-vertex $F$-free graphs (for $n$ large enough), then $H$ is called $F$-Tur\'an-good, or $k$-Tur\'an-good…

We determine for which $m$, the complete graph $K_m$ has an embedding in $S^3$ whose topological symmetry group is isomorphic to one of the polyhedral groups: $A_4$, $A_5$, or $S_4$.

Given graphs $G$ and $H$, $G$ is $H$-saturated if $G$ does not contain a copy of $H$ but the addition of any edge $e\notin E(G)$ creates at least one copy of $H$ within $G$. The edge spectrum of $H$ is the set of all possible sizes of an…

In this paper, we show the following three theorems. Let $G$ be a $K_5$-minor-free graph. Then Alon-Tarsi number of $G$ is at most $5$, there exists a matching $M$ of $G$ such that the Alon-Tarsi number of $G-M$ is at most $4$, and there…

Let $G$ be a 5-connected nonplanar graph and let $x_1,x_2,y_1,y_2\in V(G)$ be distinct, such that $G[\{x_1,x_2,y_1,y_2\}]\cong K_4^-$ and $y_1y_2\notin E(G)$. We show that one of the following holds: $G-x_1$ contains $K_4^-$, or $G$…

Word-representable graphs are a class of graphs that can be represented by words, where edges and non-edges are determined by the alternation of letters in those words. Several papers in the literature have explored the…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is a $k$-leaf power if there is a tree $T$ whose leaves are the vertices of $G$ with the property that a pair of leaves $u$ and $v$ induce an edge in $G$ if and only if they are distance at most $k$ apart in $T$. For $k\le…

We prove that every connected graph $G$ with $m$ edges contains a set $X$ of at most $\frac{3}{16}(m + 1)$ vertices such that $G-X$ has no $K_4$ minor, or equivalently, has treewidth at most $2$. This bound is best possible. Connectivity is…

A tree with at most k leaves is called k-ended tree, and a tree with exactly k leaves is called k-end tree, where a leaf is a vertex of degree one. Contraction of a graph G along the edge e means deleting the edge e and identifying its end…

In this paper we consider the complex uniformly resolvable decompositions of the complete graph $K_v$ into subgraphs such that each resolution class contains only blocks isomorphic to the same graph from a given set $\mathcal H$. We…

A "tree-partition" of a graph $G$ is a partition of $V(G)$ such that identifying the vertices in each part gives a tree. It is known that every graph with treewidth $k$ and maximum degree $\Delta$ has a tree-partition with parts of size…

The notion of $\mathcal{H}$-treewidth, where $\mathcal{H}$ is a hereditary graph class, was recently introduced as a generalization of the treewidth of an undirected graph. Roughly speaking, a graph of $\mathcal{H}$-treewidth at most $k$…

For two fixed graphs $T$ and $H$ let $ex(G(n,p),T,H)$ be the random variable counting the maximum number of copies of $T$ in an $H$-free subgraph of the random graph $G(n,p)$. We show that for the case $T=K_m$ and $\chi(H)> m$ the behavior…

As a natural extension of the Four Color Theorem, Haj\'{o}s conjectured that graphs containing no $K_5$-subdivision are 4-colorable. Any possible counterexample to this conjecture with minimum number of vertices is called a {\it Haj\'{o}s…
