Long induced paths in graphs

open access: yes, 2016
We prove that every 3-connected planar graph on $n$ vertices contains an induced path on $\Omega(\log n)$ vertices, which is best possible and improves the best known lower bound by a multiplicative factor of $\log \log n$.

The product structure of squaregraphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 105, Issue 2, Page 179-191, February 2024.
Abstract A squaregraph is a plane graph in which each internal face is a 4‐cycle and each internal vertex has degree at least 4. This paper proves that every squaregraph is isomorphic to a subgraph of the semistrong product of an outerplanar graph and a path.

Equal Entries in Totally Positive Matrices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We show that the maximal number of equal entries in a totally positive (resp. totally nonsingular) $n\textrm{-by-}n$ matrix is $\Theta(n^{4/3})$ (resp. $\Theta(n^{3/2}$)).

Clusters of Cycles

open access: yes, 2001
A {\it cluster of cycles} (or {\it $(r,q)$-polycycle}) is a simple planar 2--co nnected finite or countable graph $G$ of girth $r$ and maximal vertex-degree $q$, which admits {\it $(r,q)$-polycyclic realization} on the plane, denote it by $P(G)$, i.e ...

Bipartite Minors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We introduce a notion of bipartite minors and prove a bipartite analog of Wagner's theorem: a bipartite graph is planar if and only if it does not contain $K_{3,3}$ as a bipartite minor.

The role of twins in computing planar supports of hypergraphs

open access: yes, 2020
A support or realization of a hypergraph $H$ is a graph $G$ on the same vertex as $H$ such that for each hyperedge of $H$ it holds that its vertices induce a connected subgraph of $G$.

Maximal outerplanar graphs as chordal graphs, path-neighborhood graphs, and triangle graphs [PDF]

open access: yes
Maximal outerplanar graphs are characterized using three different classes of graphs. A path-neighborhood graph is a connected graph in which every neighborhood induces a path. The triangle graph $T(G)$ has the triangles of the graph $G$ as its vertices,

Storage Capacity as an Information-Theoretic Vertex Cover and the Index Coding Rate

open access: yes, 2017
Motivated by applications in distributed storage, the storage capacity of a graph was recently defined to be the maximum amount of information that can be stored across the vertices of a graph such that the information at any vertex can be recovered from

Graphs with Plane Outside-Obstacle Representations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
An \emph{obstacle representation} of a graph consists of a set of polygonal obstacles and a distinct point for each vertex such that two points see each other if and only if the corresponding vertices are adjacent.
