The maximum number of $P_\ell$ copies in $P_k$-free graphs [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2019
Generalizing Tur\'an's classical extremal problem, Alon and Shikhelman investigated the problem of maximizing the number of $T$ copies in an $H$-free graph, for a pair of graphs $T$ and $H$.

Extremal $H$-Free Planar Graphs

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2019
Given a graph $H$, a graph is $H$-free if it does not contain $H$ as a subgraph. We continue to study the topic of "extremal" planar graphs initiated by Dowden [J. Graph Theory  83 (2016) 213–230], that is, how many edges can an $H$-free planar graph on $n$ vertices have?

On some interconnections between combinatorial optimization and extremal graph theory [PDF]

open access: yesYugoslav Journal of Operations Research, 2004
The uniting feature of combinatorial optimization and extremal graph theory is that in both areas one should find extrema of a function defined in most cases on a finite set.

A Class of Fibonacci Matrices, Graphs, and Games

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
In this paper, we define a class of Fibonacci graphs as graphs whose adjacency matrices are obtained by alternating binary Fibonacci words. We show that Fibonacci graphs are close in size to Turán graphs and that their size-stability tradeoff defined as ...

Extremal Optimization at the Phase Transition of the 3-Coloring Problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We investigate the phase transition of the 3-coloring problem on random graphs, using the extremal optimization heuristic. 3-coloring is among the hardest combinatorial optimization problems and is closely related to a 3-state anti-ferromagnetic Potts ...

Extremal problems of double stars [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2023
In a generalized Tur\'an problem, two graphs $H$ and $F$ are given and the question is the maximum number of copies of $H$ in an $F$-free graph of order $n$. In this paper, we study the number of double stars $S_{k,l}$ in triangle-free graphs.

Extremal Permanents of Laplacian Matrices of Unicyclic Graphs

open access: yesAxioms
The extremal problem of Laplacian permanents of graphs is a classical and challenging topic in algebraic combinatorics, where the inherent #P-complete complexity of permanent computation renders this pursuit particularly intractable.

Spectral radius and extremal graphs for class of unicyclic graph with pendant vertices

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2017
In this article, we research on the spectral radius of extremal graphs for the unicyclic graphs with girth g mainly by the graft transformation and matching and obtain the upper bounds of the spectral radius of unicyclic graphs.

Interlacing–extremal graphs

open access: yesArs Mathematica Contemporanea, 2012
A graph G is singular if the zero-one adjacency matrix has the eigenvalue zero. The multiplicity of the eigenvalue zero is called the nullity of G . For two vertices y and z of G , we call ( G ,  y ,  z ) a device with respect to y and z .
