Let $G$ be a graph of minimum degree at least two with no induced subgraph isomorphic to $K_{1,6}$. We prove that if $G$ is not isomorphic to one of eight exceptional graphs, then it is possible to assign two-element subsets of…

For a nilpotent group $G$, let $\Xi(G)$ be the difference between the complement of the generating graph of $G$ and the commuting graph of $G$, with vertices corresponding to central elements of $G$ removed. That is, $\Xi(G)$ has vertex set…

Let $G$ be a group and let $X$ be a finite subset. The isoperimetric method investigates the objective function $|(XB)\setminus X|$, defined on the subsets $X$ with $|X|\ge k$ and $|G\setminus (XB)|\ge k$. A subset with minimal where this…

For a graph $G$, we denote by $\sigma_{2}(G)$ the minimum degree sum of two non-adjacent vertices if $G$ is non-complete; otherwise, $\sigma_{2}(G) = +\infty$. In this paper, we prove the following two results: (i) If $s_{1}, s_{2} \ge 2$…

It is shown that a finitely generated pro-p group G which is a virtually free pro-p product splits either as a free pro-p product with amalgamation or as a pro-p HNN-extension over a finite p-group. More precisely, G is the pro-p…

We prove that if the Cayley graph of a finitely generated group enjoys the property L_delta then the group is almost convex and has a sub-cubic isoperimetric function.

In this work we prove that, given a simplicial graph $\Gamma$ and a family $\mathcal{G}$ of linear groups over a domain $R$, the graph product $\Gamma\mathcal{G}$ is linear over $R[\underline t]$, where $\underline t$ is a tuple of finitely…

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$. For any two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ of $G$, let $R\{x, y\}$ denote the set of vertices $z$ such that the distance from $x$ to $z$ is not equal to the distance from $y$ to $z$ in $G$. For a…

A pseudo [2,b]-factor of a graph G is a spanning subgraph in which each component C on at least three vertices is a [2,b]-graph. The main contibution of this paper, is to give an upper bound to the number of components that are edges or…

A graph $\Gamma$ is called $G$-symmetric if it admits $G$ as a group of automorphisms acting transitively on the set of ordered pairs of adjacent vertices. We give a classification of $G$-symmetric graphs $\Gamma$ with $V(\Gamma)$ admitting…

The independence polynomial $I(G,x)$ of a finite graph $G$ is the generating function for the sequence of the number of independent sets of each cardinality. We investigate whether, given a fixed number of vertices and edges, there exists…

We consider the graph $\Gamma_{\rm{virt}}(G)$ whose vertices are the elements of a finitely generated profinite group $G$ and where two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if they topologically generate an open subgroup of $G$. We…

Let $G$ be a group. The permutability graph of subgroups of $G$, denoted by $\Gamma(G)$, is a graph having all the proper subgroups of $G$ as its vertices, and two subgroups are adjacent in $\Gamma(G)$ if and only if they permute. In this…

Some new results on metric ultraproducts of finite simple groups are presented. Suppose that G is such a group, defined in terms of a non-principal ultrafilter {\omega} on N and a sequence {(G_i)_{i \in N}} of finite simple groups, and that…

We consider a class of graphs subject to certain restrictions, including the finiteness of diameters. Any surjective mapping $\phi:\Gamma\to\Gamma'$ between graphs from this class is shown to be an isomorphism provided that the following…

In this paper we consider higher isoperimetric numbers of a (finite directed) graph. In this regard we focus on the $n$th mean isoperimetric constant of a directed graph as the minimum of the mean outgoing normalized flows from a given set…

A subgraph $H$ of a graph $G$ is isometric if the distances between vertices in $H$ coincide with the distances between the corresponding vertices in $G$. We show that for any integer $n\ge 1$, there is a graph on $3^{n+O(\log^2 n)}$…

Let $\gamma(G)$ denote the domination number of a graph $G$. A {\it Roman domination function} of a graph $G$ is a function $f: V\to\{0,1,2\}$ such that every vertex with 0 has a neighbor with 2. The {\it Roman domination number}…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A set $I\subseteq V$ is an independent set, if no two of its members are adjacent in $G$. The $k$-independent graph of $G$, $I_k (G)$, is defined to be the graph whose vertices correspond to the independent…

Motivated by the study of the crossing number of graphs, it is shown that, for trees, the sum of the products of the degrees of the end-vertices of all edges has an upper bound in terms of the sum of all vertex degrees to the power of…
