A path in an edge-coloured graph is called \emph{conflict-free} if a colour is exclusively applied to one of its edges. A graph $G$ is considered \emph{conflict-free connected} if every pair of vertices in $V(G)$ is connected by a conflict-free path. The minimum number of colours required to render a connected graph $G$ conflict-free connected is referred to as the \emph{conflict-free connection number}. In this paper, we introduce several sharp conditions on the minimum degree sum of any $4$ independent vertices in $G$ to ensure that the conflict-free connection number of $G$ is bounded.
A proper conflict-free coloring of a graph is a proper vertex coloring in which every non-isolated vertex has a color appearing exactly once in its neighborhood. A graph $G$ is proper conflict-free $(\mathrm{degree}+2)$-choosable if every list assignment $L$ with $|L(v)|\ge d_G(v)+2$ for each $v\in V(G)$ admits such a...
In this paper, we study CONFLICT-FREE EDGE CUT (CF-CUT), which is a recently introduced conflict-free version of the MIN-CUT problem that asks to find the minimum number of edges to disconnect a connected graph. The CF-CUT takes as input a connected undirected graph G = (V, E), a conflict graph $\widehat{G}$ such that...

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$. A set $I\subseteq V(G)$ is an independent dominating set of $G$ if no two vertices in $I$ are adjacent and every vertex in $V(G)\setminus I$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $I$. The independent domination number of $G$ is the minimum cardinality among all independent dom...

A dominating set $D$ of a nontrivial connected graph $G$ is called a semitotal dominating set of $G$ if every vertex in $D$ is at distance at most two from another vertex in $D$. If, in addition, $D$ is an independent set, then $D$ is called an independent semitotal dominating set of $G$. The (independent) semitotal do...

A set $S$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is a connected mutual-visibility set if every two vertices of $S$ are joined by a shortest path whose internal vertices lie outside $S$, and the subgraph induced by $S$ is connected. We introduce the connected mutual-visibility number $\mu_c(G)$, defined as the maximum cardinality o...
A graph $G$ is \emph{$H$-induced-saturated} if $G$ has no induced subgraph isomorphic to $H$ but changing the adjacency of an arbitrary pair of vertices in $G$ creates an induced copy of $H$. The existence problem for $H$-induced-saturated graphs had previously been settled when $H$ is a complete graph, a path, an odd...
