AbstractA result of Simonovits and Sós states that for any fixed graph H and any ε > 0 there exists δ > 0 such that if G is an n-vertex graph with the property that every S ⊆ V(G) contains pe(H) |S|v(H) ± δ nv(H) labelled copies of H, then G is quasirandom in the sense that every S ⊆ V(G) contains $\frac{1}{2}$p|S|2± ε n2 edges. The original proof of this result makes heavy use of the regularity lemma, resulting in a bound on δ−1 which is a tower of twos of height polynomial in ε−1. We give an alternative proof of this theorem which avoids the regularity lemma and shows that δ may be taken to be linear in ε when H is a clique and polynomial in ε for general H. This answers a problem raised by Simonovits and Sós.

It is proved that the smallest cardinality among the maximal irredundant sets in an n–vertex graph with maximum degree Δ([ges ]2) is at least 2n/3Δ. This substantially improves a bound by Bollobás and Cockayne [1]. The class of graphs which attain this bound is characterised.

Let $F$ be a graph.  A graph $G$ is $F$-free if it does not contain $F$ as a subgraph.  The Turán number of $F$, written $\textrm{ex}(n,F)$, is the maximum number of edges in an $F$-free graph with $n$ vertices.  The determination of Turán numbers of bipartite graphs is a challenging and widely investigated problem.  In this paper we introduce an ordered version of the Turán problem for bipartite graphs.  Let $G$ be a graph with $V(G) = \{1, 2, \dots , n \}$ and view the vertices of $G$ as being ordered in the natural way.  A zig-zag $K_{s,t}$, denoted $Z_{s,t}$, is a complete bipartite graph $K_{s,t}$ whose parts $A = \{n_1 < n_2 < \dots < n_s \}$ and $B = \{m_1 < m_2 < \dots < m_t \}$ satisfy the condition $n_s < m_1$.  A zig-zag $C_{2k}$ is an even cycle $C_{2k}$ whose vertices in one part precede all of those in the other part.  Write $\mathcal{Z}_{2k}$ for the family of zig-zag $2k$-cycles.  We investigate the Turán numbers $\textrm{ex}(n,Z_{s,t})$ and $\textrm{ex}(n,\mathcal{Z}_{2k})$.  In particular we show $\textrm{ex}(n, Z_{2,2}) \leq \frac{2}{3}n^{3/2} + O(n^{5/4})$.  For infinitely many $n$ we construct a $Z_{2,2}$-free $n$-vertex graph with more than $(n - \sqrt{n} - 1) + \textrm{ex} (n,K_{2,2})$ edges.

We consider the next random process for generating a maximal $H$-free graph: Given a fixed graph $H$ and an integer $n$, start by taking a uniformly random permutation of the edges of the complete $n$-vertex graph $K_n$. Then, traverse the edges of $K_n$ according to the order imposed by the permutation and add each traversed edge to an (initially empty) evolving $n$-vertex graph - unless its addition creates a copy of $H$. The result of this process is a maximal $H$-free graph ${\Bbb M}_n(H)$. Our main result is a new lower bound on the expected number of edges in ${\Bbb M}_n(H)$, for $H$ that is regular, strictly $2$-balanced. As a corollary, we obtain new lower bounds for Turán numbers of complete, balanced bipartite graphs. Namely, for fixed $r \ge 5$, we show that ex$(n, K_{r,r}) = \Omega(n^{2-2/(r+1)}(\ln\ln n)^{1/(r^2-1)})$. This improves an old lower bound of Erdős and Spencer. Our result relies on giving a non-trivial lower bound on the probability that a given edge is included in ${\Bbb M}_n(H)$, conditioned on the event that the edge is traversed relatively (but not trivially) early during the process.

We show that the expected time for a smart "cop"' to catch a drunk "robber" on an $n$-vertex graph is at most $n + {\rm o}(n)$. More precisely, let $G$ be a simple, connected, undirected graph with distinguished points $u$ and $v$ among its $n$ vertices. A cop begins at $u$ and a robber at $v$; they move alternately from vertex to adjacent vertex. The robber moves randomly, according to a simple random walk on $G$; the cop sees all and moves as she wishes, with the object of "capturing" the robber—that is, occupying the same vertex—in least expected time. We show that the cop succeeds in expected time no more than $n {+} {\rm o}(n)$. Since there are graphs in which capture time is at least $n {-} o(n)$, this is roughly best possible. We note also that no function of the diameter can be a bound on capture time.

We define the limiting density of a minor-closed family of simple graphs $\mathcal{F}$ to be the smallest number $k$ such that every $n$-vertex graph in $\mathcal{F}$ has at most $kn(1+o(1))$ edges, and we investigate the set of numbers that can be limiting densities. This set of numbers is countable, well-ordered, and closed; its order type is at least $\omega^\omega$. It is the closure of the set of densities of density-minimal graphs, graphs for which no minor has a greater ratio of edges to vertices. By analyzing density-minimal graphs of low densities, we find all limiting densities up to the first two cluster points of the set of limiting densities, $1$ and $3/2$. For multigraphs, the only possible limiting densities are the integers and the superparticular ratios $i/(i+1)$.

Background/Objective: The Coronavirus Covid-19 has affected almost all the countries and millions of people got infected and more deaths have been reported everywhere. The uncertainty and fear created by the pandemic can be used by hackers to steal the data from both private and public systems. Hence, there is an urgent need to improve the security of the systems. This can be done only by building a strong cryptosystem. So many researchers started embedding different topics of mathematics like algebra, number theory, and so on in cryptography to keep the system, safe and secure. In this study, a cryptosystem using graph theory has been attempted, to strengthen the security of the system. Method: A new graph is constructed from the given graph, known as a double vertex graph. The edge labeling of this double vertex graph is used in encryption and decryption. Findings: A new cryptosystem using the amalgamation of the path, its double vertex graph and edge labeling has been proposed. From the double vertex graph of a path, we have given a method to find the original path. To hack such an encrypted key, the knowledge of graph theory is important, which makes the system stronger. Applications:The one-word encryption method will be useful in every security system that needs a password for secure communication or storage or authentication. Keywords: Double vertex graphs; path; adjacency matrix; encryption; cryptography

We prove the following 30 year-old conjecture of Győri and Tuza: the edges of every n-vertex graph G can be decomposed into complete graphs C1,. . .,Cℓ of orders two and three such that |C1|+···+|Cℓ| ≤ (1/2+o(1))n2. This result implies the asymptotic version of the old result of Erdős, Goodman and Pósa that asserts the existence of such a decomposition with ℓ ≤ n2/4.
