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 every 1-million-connected graph rigid in 3D?
It is an old result that every $6$-connected graph is rigid in $\mathbb{R}^2$:
Lovász, László, and Yechiam Yemini. "On generic rigidity in the plane." SIAM Journal on Algebraic Discrete Methods 3, no …

Orthogonal Hamiltonian cycles in (n x n x n) grids
Let $C_n$ be a cubical $n \times n \times n$ subset of the integer lattice,
so consisting of $n^3$ vertices.
I am interested in special Hamiltonian cycles in $C_n$, special in the
sense that (a) each …

Equitable 4-colorings of planar triangulations
In an
equitable coloring
of a graph $G$, the number of vertices in each color class differ
by at most $1$.
For example, left below is not an equitable coloring, while the
right graph is equitably colo …

Squaring a square and discrete Ricci flow
Is this a theorem?
Every $3$-connected planar graph $G$ may be represented as
a tiling of a square by squares,
one square per node of $G$, with nodes connected in $G$
corresponding to tangent squares …

Rubber-band graph embedding under gravity
Let $G$ be a simple $3$-connected plane graph with the vertices of
its outer face pinned to the $xy$-plane.
View each edge as an ideal rubber band, and each internal
node given a weight proportional t …

Distance queries to reconstruct an unknown graph
Let $G$ be a finite, simple, connected, undirected graph on $n$ vertices.
Suppose your goal is to determine $G$ uniquely
via queries.
Each query choses a $v_i$, and returns the shortest distances (num …

Diagonal shortcuts to minimize all-pairs shortest-paths in grid graph
Augment the grid graph $G$ on lattice points $[1,n]^2$, which
connects each point to its four distance-$1$ vertical and horizontal neighbors.
Augment $G$ to $G'$ by adding in one of the two $\sqrt{2}$ …

Universal point sets for 1-plane graphs
It is a notorious open problem to find a smallest set of $N$ points that
permit any $n$-vertex planar graph to be drawn in the plane without
crossings, using only those $N$ points as vertices, and str …

Reconstructing plane graphs from degree- and face-sequences
Let $G$ be a plane $3$-connected graph; so it partitions the plane
into regions bounded by faces.
Let $\mathrm{deg}_v$ be the sequence of vertex degrees of $G$,
and $\mathrm{deg}_f$ be the sequence of …

Counting Hamiltonian cycles in $n \times n$ square grid
I wonder if anyone has counted these curves, either exactly or asymptotically?
Let $S_n$ be an $n \times n$ subset of $\mathbb{Z}^2$ consisting of $n^2$
lattice points: a lattice square.
Define a re …

Graph planarization via rewiring
Let $G$ be a nonplanar graph (undirected) of $n$ nodes and $e$ edges, with
$e \le 3n-6$.
Define a rewiring move as replacing edge $(a,b)$ with edge $(a,c)$.
The result must be a simple graph (no loops …

Iteration cycles of Z_n weights in path graphs: Why cycles of length 182 for a 6-node path?
Assign to the $n$ nodes of a path graph vertex weights
forming a permutation of $(0,\ldots,n{-}1)$.
Now iterate the following update repeatedly:
Each node sums the weights of its neighbors, and that n …
