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 ...

Apex Graphs and Cographs

open access: yesTheory and Applications of Graphs
A class G of graphs is called hereditary if it is closed under taking induced subgraphs. We denote by G^{apex} the class of graphs G that contain a vertex v such that G − v is in G.

Graph Classes Generated by Mycielskians

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2020
In this paper we use the classical notion of weak Mycielskian M′(G) of a graph G and the following sequence: M′0(G) = G, M′1(G) = M′(G), and M′n(G) = M′(M′n−1(G)), to show that if G is a complete graph of order p, then the above sequence is a generator ...

Signed Projective Cubes, a Homomorphism Point of View

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 113, Issue 1, Page 38-56, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The (signed) projective cubes, as a special class of graphs closely related to the hypercubes, are on the crossroad of geometry, algebra, discrete mathematics and linear algebra. Defined as Cayley graphs on binary groups, they represent basic linear dependencies.

Forbidden induced subgraph of the Comparability Graph and Three Colored Posets

open access: yes, 2018
The cover-incomparability graph of a poset P is the edge-union of the covering and the incomparability graph of P. As a continuation of the study of 3-colored diagrams we characterize some forbidden ⊲ - preserving subposets of the posets whose cover ...

Forbidden Pairs and (k,m)-Pancyclicity

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2017
A graph G on n vertices is said to be (k, m)-pancyclic if every set of k vertices in G is contained in a cycle of length r for each r ∈ {m, m+1, . . . , n}.

Fractional List Packing for Layered Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 113, Issue 1, Page 19-37, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The fractional list packing number χ ℓ • ( G ) of a graph G is a graph invariant that has recently arisen from the study of disjoint list‐colourings. It measures how large the lists of a list‐assignment L : V ( G ) → 2 N need to be to ensure the existence of a “perfectly balanced” probability distribution on proper L‐colourings, that is, such ...

Characterising and recognising game-perfect graphs [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2019
Consider a vertex colouring game played on a simple graph with $k$ permissible colours. Two players, a maker and a breaker, take turns to colour an uncoloured vertex such that adjacent vertices receive different colours.

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 ).

Finding a heaviest vertex-weighted triangle is not harder than matrix multiplication [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We show that a maximum-weight triangle in an undirected graph with n vertices and real weights assigned to vertices can be found in time O(n(omega) + n(2+o(1))), where omega is the exponent of the fastest matrix multiplication algorithm. By the currently
