Forbidden Induced Subgraphs and the Łoś–Tarski Theorem [PDF]
2021 36th Annual ACM/IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS), 2021 AbstractLet $\mathscr {C}$ be a class of finite and infinite graphs that is closed under induced subgraphs. The well-known Łoś–Tarski Theorem from classical model theory implies that $\mathscr {C}$ is definable in first-order logic by a sentence $\varphi $ if and only if $\mathscr {C}$ has a finite set of forbidden induced finite subgraphs ...

List-3-Coloring ordered graphs with a forbidden induced subgraph
SIAM Journal on Discrete MathematicsThe List-3-Coloring Problem is to decide, given a graph $G$ and a list $L(v)\subseteq \{1,2,3\}$ of colors assigned to each vertex $v$ of $G$, whether $G$ admits a proper coloring $\phi$ with $\phi(v)\in L(v)$ for every vertex $v$ of $G$, and the $3 ...

Upward-closed hereditary families in the dominance order [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2022 The majorization relation orders the degree sequences of simple graphs into posets called dominance orders. As shown by Ruch and Gutman (1979) and Merris (2002), the degree sequences of threshold and split graphs form upward-closed sets within the ...

Classes of graphs with restricted interval models [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 1999 We introduce q-proper interval graphs as interval graphs with interval models in which no interval is properly contained in more than q other intervals, and also provide a forbidden induced subgraph characterization of this class of graphs. We initiate a

Hitting forbidden induced subgraphs on bounded treewidth graphs [PDF]
Information and Computation, 2021 For a fixed graph $H$, the $H$-IS-Deletion problem asks, given a graph $G$, for the minimum size of a set $S \subseteq V(G)$ such that $G\setminus S$ does not contain $H$ as an induced subgraph. Motivated by previous work about hitting (topological) minors and subgraphs on bounded treewidth graphs, we are interested in determining, for a fixed graph $H$

Large homogeneous subgraphs in bipartite graphs with forbidden induced subgraphs [PDF]
Journal of Graph Theory, 2020 AbstractFor a bipartite graph , let be the largest such that either contains , a complete bipartite subgraph with parts of size , or the bipartite complement of contains as a subgraph. For a class of graphs , let . We say that a bipartite graph is strongly acyclic if neither nor its bipartite complement contains a cycle. By we denote the set of

Hereditary Equality of Domination and Exponential Domination in Subcubic Graphs
Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2021 Let γ(G) and γe(G) denote the domination number and exponential domination number of graph G, respectively. Henning et al., in [Hereditary equality of domination and exponential domination, Discuss. Math. Graph Theory 38 (2018) 275–285] gave a conjecture:

On the chromatic number of (P_{5},windmill)-free graphs [PDF]
Opuscula Mathematica, 2017 In this paper we study the chromatic number of \((P_5, windmill)\)-free graphs. For integers \(r,p\geq 2\) the windmill graph \(W_{r+1}^p=K_1 \vee pK_r\) is the graph obtained by joining a single vertex (the center) to the vertices of \(p\) disjoint ...

Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2018 We define a weakly threshold sequence to be a degree sequence $d=(d_1,\dots,d_n)$ of a graph having the property that $\sum_{i \leq k} d_i \geq k(k-1)+\sum_{i > k} \min\{k,d_i\} - 1$ for all positive $k \leq \max\{i:d_i \geq i-1\}$.
