Questions about the branch of combinatorics called graph theory (not to be used for questions concerning the graph of a function). This tag can be further specialized via using it in combination with more specialized tags such as extremal-graph-theory, spectral-graph-theory, algebraic-graph-theory, topological-graph-theory, random-graphs, graph-colorings and several others.

Counting and constructing some special planar graphs

We look for the property that a graph is both planar and has a trivial automorphism group. How many non-isomorphic $n$-vertex graphs have such property and is there an $O(n^\beta)$ (at least randomiz …

Graph with small automorphism and large isomorphism

Is there a graph family on $n$-vertices such that any graph $G$ in the family have small automorphism group (say $|Aut(G)|\leq n^c$ for some fixed $c>0$) which if $G$ and $H$ are isomorphic then the s …

Graphs with prescribed Automorphism groups [closed]

For every $k\in\Bbb N$ is it possible to find a graph $G$ on large enough $n\in\Bbb N$ vertices such that $\big|Aut(G)\big|=(n-k)!$? Is it possible to construct it quickly?

On homomorphisms between vertex transitive graphs

In general there is no relation between automorphism groups of subgraphs and the main graph. However, this question is about vertex transitive graphs. Given vertex transitive $G$ and $H$ such that $| …

Grothendieck Constant of a graph and approximation limits

Let $K(G)$ be the Grothendieck constant of a graph with adjacency matrix $A$. How is $K(G)$ precisely related to approximation limits for some standard NP complete problems such as Chromatic, Independ …

graph homomorphism

Let $G$ and $H$ be two non-bipartite graphs. We know that, if $\exists$ homomorphism $\phi : G \rightarrow H$, then $\omega(G) \le \omega(H)$ where $\omega$ is clique number. $(1)$ Does the converse …

Minimal edge color on constraints

Is minimum colors needed to assign colors to edges of complete graph $K_n$ so that every even simple cycle contains an odd number ($>1$) of colors much larger than $(\log n)^\beta$ or $n^{\frac{1}\bet …

How effective is using local property to test Shannon capacity?

A key tool in graph theory is the laplacian which is a local property. We can form a semidefinite programming and get an upper bound for Shannon capacity using laplacian. Shannon capacity is inherent …

Who first used/gave a coordinate representation of a graph?

In his proof of the Shannon capacity of a graph, Lovasz utilizes a coordinate representation of the pentagon (namely an orthonormal representation). Who first utilized a coordinate representation for …

Capacity of Cycle Graphs

Shannon capacity $\Theta(G)$ of pentagon is achieved at $2$-fold strong product of the pentagon. It is also known that the Lov\'asz theta $\vartheta(G)^m\neq\alpha(G^{\boxtimes m})$ for any finite po …

Lovasz theta function and independence number of product of simple odd-cycles

Lovasz theta function $\vartheta(G)$ of a graph $G$ provides an upper bound for the independence number of a graph, $\alpha(G)$ and $\Theta(G) = \lim_{k\rightarrow \infty}\sqrt[k]{\alpha(G^{k})}$. Tha …
