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.

Is the "Moebius Stairway" Graph Already Known?
It is a wellknown fact, that Moebius Ladder Graphs have $2n$ vertices, but nowhere could I find any hint of how to generalize them to Graphs with $2n+1$ vertices.
Last week I had the idea of giving up …

Shortest Paths in the "Cantor Graph"
First, let me explain, what I understand by a "Cantor Graph":
it is an infinite, directed graph with self loops and countably many vertices labelled with the natural numbers; every ordered pair of …

Densest Graphs with Unique Perfect Matching
Given a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, that has a perfect matching $M$, what is the maximal number of edges that $G$ can have without contradicting the uniqueness of $M$?
Are examples of such extremal …

Is there an "Erlangen Program" for Graph Theory?
There are certain graph theoretic problems (especially optimization problems), whose solution-subgraph (i.e. the set of vertices and edges)), is invariant under certain modifications (especially modif …

Do the Odd Cycles of a Graph Define a Matroid?
An Odd Cycle Transversal is a set of vertices that, when removed from a graph, renders it bipartite.
Question:
does the collection of "critical" sets of vertices, whose removal renders a graph bipart …

Characterizing Convex Configurations of Quadrupels of Coplanar Points via Linear (In-)equali...
Given 4 points $A$, $B$, $C$ and $D$ in general position in the euclidean plane, is it possible to determine from the 6 distances $AB$, $BC$, $CD$, $AD$, $AC$ and, $BD$ alone, whether every point is a …

Probability of a vertex being a "degree-celebrity" in a random graph
If $G(n,p)$ is a random graph of the Erdös-Rényi model,
what is the probability that $\mathrm{deg}(v)\gt\mathrm{deg}(u)\ \forall u\in\mathrm{adj}(v)$
Please feel free to relate answers to other m …

I am currently developing TSP heuristics that aim at symmetrically reducing the original, complete and undirected graph.
The overarching rationale is that the reduction is done via a sequence of regul …

Existence of optimal tours containing an 'extremal' edge
let $\mathcal{P}$ be a finite set of points in the euclidean plane in general position, and let $$\lbrace p_A,p_B,p_C,p_D\rbrace: \ \|p_C-p_A\|+\|p_D-p_B\|\ \gt \|p_i-p_h\|+\|p_k-p_j\|\quad\forall\ \ …
