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.

Do triple-linked graphs exist?
Yes.
Theorem 1.
For every $k$ there exists $N=N(k)$ such that in every embedding of the complete tripartite graph $K_{N,N,N}$ into $\mathbb{R}^3$ there are $k$ disjoint pairwise linked triangles; in p …

Do the dual graphs of hyperplane arrangements admit Hamiltonian paths?
Already in the plane there are arrangements such that the longest path in their dual covers roughly at most $2/3$ of the regions, therefore they are not Hamiltonian. The reason is that the dual graph …

Adjacency matrix of tournament
The following two papers give the lower bound $n-1$ on the rank of $n\times n$ tournament matrices over fields of characteristic zero. Here a tournament matrix $M$ is a $\{0,1\}$-matrix, with zeros on …

Page-turning number of a graph
The page-turning number of a graph $G$ is also known as the bandwidth of $G$ (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_bandwidth).
The Wikipedia page also contains values of the bandwidth for some special …

Coloring of a graph representing the power set
For $k\ge n+1$ there is a proper coloring of $G$ where each set in $\mathcal{P}$ is colored by its cardinality. Then no vertex $v$ has a neighbor with the same color.

Find all 2-planar drawings of $K_6$ and $K_7$
The list of all good drawings of $K_6$ can be found in the doctoral thesis by Nabil H. Rafla: https://escholarship.mcgill.ca/concern/theses/x346d4920
On pages 164-165 the drawings are described by the …

What kind of graph has more edges than its line graph?
Matchings: the line graph of a matching has no edges.
Paths: the line graph of every path of length $k\ge 1$ has $k-1$ edges.
Paths might be the only connected graphs with this property, which may be …

Computational (conjecture) choices for a path
Let $S=\Sigma v_i$. If $S=0$, sort the vectors according to their angle along the unit circle. Then the corresponding closed path traces the boundary of a convex polygon.
In fact, the vectors $v_i$ ca …

Digraphs with exactly one Eulerian tour
Graphs obtained from a (directed) cycle by a repeated operation of attaching a (directed) cycle to a vertex of degree $2$ have unique Eulerian tour.
The sequence appears in OEIS: http://oeis.org/A1026 …

Edge coloring graphs is in P?
Holyer proved that the edge-coloring (chromatic index) of a graph is an NP-complete problem, even for cubic graphs: https://epubs.siam.org/doi/abs/10.1137/0210055.
So if $P\neq NP$, the best approxim …

Chromatic number and graph polynomial
$G=K_{3,3}$ is a counterexample: it has chromatic number $2$ but $\mathrm{rad}(P_G)=3$; there are monomials with all three exponents $1,2,3$.
My conjecture would be that $\mathrm{rad}(P_G)$ is equal …

Bookthickness of covering space
The graph of the icosahedron is a 2-fold cover of $K_6$; this covering can be induced by the covering of the projective plane by the sphere. The graph of the icosahedron is planar and Hamiltonian, so …
