Problems in extremal graph theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We consider a variety of problems in extremal graph and set theory. The {\em chromatic number} of $G$, $\chi(G)$, is the smallest integer $k$ such that $G$ is $k$-colorable.

Lower Bounds for Maximum Weight Bisections of Weighted Triangle‐Free Subcubic Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A bisection of a graph is a cut in which the number of vertices in the two parts of the cut differ by at most 1. In this paper, we consider maximum weight bisections of edge‐weighted triangle‐free subcubic graphs and show that every weighted triangle‐free subcubic graph G = ( V , E , w ) $G=(V,E,w)$ has a bisection with weight at least θ ⋅ w (

Forbidden subgraphs, stability and hamiltonicity

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 1999
The authors study the stability of some classes of claw-free graphs defined in terms of forbidden subgraphs under the closure operation defined in \textit{Z. Ryjáček} [J. Comb. Theory, Ser. B 70, No.~2, 217-224 (1997; Zbl 0872.05032)]. They characterize all connected graphs \(A\) such that the class of all \(CA\)-free graphs (where \(C\) denotes the ...

A Quasi-Hole Detection Algorithm for Recognizing k-Distance-Hereditary Graphs, with k < 2

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2021
Cicerone and Di Stefano defined and studied the class of k-distance-hereditary graphs, i.e., graphs where the distance in each connected induced subgraph is at most k times the distance in the whole graph. The defined graphs represent a generalization of

Pairwise Imitation and Tournament Graphs

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates strategic dynamics under the behavioral rule of pairwise interact and imitate (PII), which requires minimal information and emphasizes outperforming opponents in pairwise interactions. We characterize PII using weak tournament graphs and, for a broad class of dynamics, establish a one‐shot stability result for ...

Forbidden subgraphs and the Kőnig property

open access: yesElectronic Notes in Discrete Mathematics, 2011
Abstract A graph has the Kőnig property if its matching number equals its transversal number. Lovasz proved a characterization of graphs having the Kőnig property by forbidden subgraphs, restricted to graphs with a perfect matching. Korach, Nguyen, and Peis proposed an extension of Lovaszʼs result to a characterization of all graphs having the Kőnig ...

On the 12-Representability of Induced Subgraphs of a Grid Graph

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2022
The notion of a 12-representable graph was introduced by Jones, Kitaev, Pyatkin and Remmel in [Representing graphs via pattern avoiding words, Electron. J. Combin. 22 (2015) #P2.53].

Heavy subgraphs, stability and hamiltonicity

open access: yes, 2016
Let $G$ be a graph. Adopting the terminology of Broersma et al. and \v{C}ada, respectively, we say that $G$ is 2-heavy if every induced claw ($K_{1,3}$) of $G$ contains two end-vertices each one has degree at least $|V(G)|/2$; and $G$ is o-heavy if every

Long Induced Paths in K s , s‐Free Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 112, Issue 4, Page 438-441, August 2026.
ABSTRACT More than 40 years ago, Galvin, Rival, and Sands showed that every K s , s‐free graph containing an n‐vertex path must contain an induced path of length f ( n ), where f ( n ) → ∞ as n → ∞. Recently, it was shown by Duron, Esperet, and Raymond that one can take f ( n ) = ( log log n ) 1 / 5 − o ( 1 ).
