On the universal pairing for 2‐complexes

open access: yesBulletin of the London Mathematical Society, EarlyView.
Abstract The universal pairing for manifolds was defined and shown to lack positivity in dimension 4 in [Freedman, Kitaev, Nayak, Slingerland, Walker, and Wang, J. Geom. Topol. 9 (2005), 2303–2317]. We prove an analogous result for 2‐complexes, and show that the universal pairing does not detect the difference between simple homotopy equivalence and 3 ...

A Necessary and Sufficient Condition for Graph Matching to be equivalent to Clique Search [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper formulates a necessary and sufficient condition for a generic graph matching problem to be equivalent to the maximum vertex and edge weight clique problem in a derived association graph.

The Descriptive Complexity of Subgraph Isomorphism without Numerics

open access: yes, 2017
Let $F$ be a connected graph with $\ell$ vertices. The existence of a subgraph isomorphic to $F$ can be defined in first-order logic with quantifier depth no better than $\ell$, simply because no first-order formula of smaller quantifier depth can ...

The subgraph isomorphism problem for outerplanar graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
This paper deals with the subgraph isomorphism problem for outerplanar graphs (SUBOUTISOM). In general, since trees and forests are outerplanar, SUBOUTISOM is NP-complete.

A Sharper Ramsey Theorem for Constrained Drawings

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 109, Issue 4, Page 401-411, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Given a graph G and a collection C of subsets of R d indexed by the subsets of vertices of G, a constrained drawing of G is a drawing where each edge is drawn inside some set from C, in such a way that nonadjacent edges are drawn in sets with disjoint indices. In this paper we prove a Ramsey‐type result for such drawings.

Solution-Graphs of Boolean Formulas and Isomorphism

open access: yesInternational Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing, 2016
The solution-graph of a Boolean formula on n variables is the subgraph of the hypercube H n induced by the satisfying assignments of the formula. The structure of solution-graphs has been the object of much research in recent years since it is important ...

Bounding Clique-Width via Perfect Graphs [PDF]

open access: yesLanguage and Automata Theory and Applications, 2014
Given two graphs $H_1$ and $H_2$, a graph $G$ is $(H_1,H_2)$-free if it contains no subgraph isomorphic to $H_1$ or $H_2$. We continue a recent study into the clique-width of $(H_1,H_2)$-free graphs and present three new classes of $(H_1,H_2)$-free ...

The Generic Circular Triangle‐Free Graph

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 109, Issue 4, Page 426-445, August 2025.
ABSTRACT In this article, we introduce the generic circular triangle‐free graph C 3 and propose a finite axiomatization of its first‐order theory. In particular, our main results show that a countable graph G embeds into C 3 if and only if it is a { K 3 , K 1 + 2 K 2 , K 1 + C 5 , C 6 }‐free graph.

Security in Metaverse Markets: Challenges and Solutions—A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesExpert Systems, Volume 42, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT This review paper provides a systematic overview of the metaverse markets security problems and solutions. The metaverse is an emerging digital space, bridging virtual, augmented and mixed reality environments. As the metaverse evolves, issues related to customer security have emerged, which include breaches of privacy, thefts of identity and ...

A Jump of the Saturation Number in Random Graphs?

open access: yesRandom Structures &Algorithms, Volume 66, Issue 4, July 2025.
ABSTRACT For graphs G$$ G $$ and F$$ F $$, the saturation number sat(G,F)$$ sat\left(G,F\right) $$ is the minimum number of edges in an inclusion‐maximal F$$ F $$‐free subgraph of G$$ G $$. In 2017, Korándi and Sudakov initiated the study of saturation in random graphs. They showed that for constant p∈(0,1)$$ p\in \left(0,1\right) $$, whp satG(n,p),Ks=(
