Given a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and a bijective labeling of the vertices using the integers $1,2,ldots, n$, we say $G$ has a peak at vertex $v$ if the degree of $v$ is greater than or equal to 2, and if the label on $v$ is larger than the label of all its neighbors. Fix an enumeration of the vertices of $G$ as $v_1,v_2,ldots, v_{n}$ and a fix a set $Ssubset V(G)$. We want to determine the number of distinct bijective labelings of the vertices of $G$, such that the vertices in $S$ are precisely the peaks of $G$. The set $S$ is called the emph{peak set of the graph} $G$, and the set of all labelings with peak set $S$ is denoted by $PSG$. This definition generalizes the study of peak sets of permutations, as that work is the special case of $G$ being the path graph on $n$ vertices. In this paper, we present an algorithm for constructing all of the bijective labelings in $PSG$ for any $Ssubseteq V(G)$. We also explore peak sets in certain families of graphs, including cycle graphs and joins of graphs.
A graph H is common if the number of monochromatic copies of H in a 2-edge-colouring of the complete graph is minimised by the random colouring. Burr and Rosta, extending a famous conjecture by Erdos, conjectured that every graph is common. The conje
An almost self-centered graph is a connected graph of order $n$ with exactly $n-2$ central vertices, and an almost peripheral graph is a connected graph of order $n$ with exactly $n-1$ peripheral vertices. We determine (1) the maximum girth of an alm
For any integer $mge 2$ and a set $Vsubset {1,dots,m}$, let $(m,V)$ denote the union of congruence classes of the elements in $V$ modulo $m$. We study the Hankel determinants for the number of Dyck paths with peaks avoiding the heights in the set $(m
A bridgeless graph $G$ is called $3$-flow-critical if it does not admit a nowhere-zero $3$-flow, but $G/e$ has for any $ein E(G)$. Tuttes $3$-flow conjecture can be equivalently stated as that every $3$-flow-critical graph contains a vertex of degree
In this article, we discuss when one can extend an r-regular graph to an r + 1 regular by adding edges. Different conditions on the num- ber of vertices n and regularity r are developed. We derive an upper bound of r, depending on n, for which, every
