Testing whether a digraph contains H-free k-induced subgraphs
A subgraph induced by k vertices is called a k-induced subgraph. We prove that determining if a digraph G contains H-free k-induced subgraphs is Ω(N2)-evasive. Then we construct an ϵ-tester to test this property.

Long Induced Paths in K s , s‐Free Graphs
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 ).

Some problems on induced subgraphs
We discuss some problems related to induced subgraphs. The first problem is about getting a good upper bound for the chromatic number in terms of the clique number for graphs in which every induced cycle has length $3$ or $4$. The second problem is about the perfect chromatic number of a graph, which is the smallest number of perfect sets into which ...

On Oriented Colourings of Graphs on Surfaces
ABSTRACT For an oriented graph G, the least number of colours required to oriented colour G is called the oriented chromatic number of G and denoted χ o ( G ). For a non‐negative integer g let χ o ( g ) be the least integer such that χ o ( G ) ≤ χ o ( g ) for every oriented graph G with Euler genus at most g.

Edge‐Length Preserving Embeddings of Graphs Between Normed Spaces
ABSTRACT The concept of graph embeddability, initially formalized by Belk and Connelly and later expanded by Sitharam and Willoughby, extends the question of embedding finite metric spaces into a given normed space. A finite simple graph G = ( V , E ) is said to be ( X , Y )‐embeddable if any set of induced edge lengths from an embedding of G into a ...

A Note on Lower Bounds for Induced Ramsey Numbers
We say that a graph F strongly arrows a pair of graphs (G,H) and write F →ind$\mathop \to \limits^{{\rm{ind}}} $(G,H) if any 2-coloring of its edges with red and blue leads to either a red G or a blue H appearing as induced subgraphs of F.

ABSTRACT We prove that the Ramsey number R ( 5 , 5 ) is less than or equal to 46. The proof uses a combination of linear programming and checking a large number of cases by computer. All of the computational parts of the proof were independently implemented by both authors, with consistent results.

New graph classes characterized by weak vertex separators and two-pairs
A set of vertices whose deletion from a graph would increase the distance between two remaining vertices is called a weak vertex separator of the graph. Two vertices form a two-pair if all chordless paths between them have length .

Towards Characterization of Five‐List‐Colorability of Toroidal Graphs
ABSTRACT Through computer‐assisted enumeration, we list minimal obstructions for 5‐choosability of graphs on the torus with the following additional property: There exists a cyclic system of non‐contractible triangles around the torus where the consecutive triangles are at distance at most four.
