Exponents of two-colored digraphs

Yan Ling Shao, Yubin Gao (2009)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We consider the primitive two-colored digraphs whose uncolored digraph has n + s vertices and consists of one n -cycle and one ( n - 3 ) -cycle. We give bounds on the exponents and characterizations of extremal two-colored digraphs.

Extended finite operator calculus-an example of algebraization of analysis

Andrzej Kwaśniewski, Ewa Borak (2004)

Open Mathematics

“A Calculus of Sequences” started in 1936 by Ward constitutes the general scheme for extensions of classical operator calculus of Rota-Mullin considered by many afterwards and after Ward. Because of the notation we shall call the Ward's calculus of sequences in its afterwards elaborated form-a ψ-calculus. The ψ-calculus in parts appears to be almost automatic, natural extension of classical operator calculus of Rota-Mullin or equivalently-of umbral calculus of Roman and Rota. At the same time this...

Extended Ramsey theory for words representing rationals

Vassiliki Farmaki, Andreas Koutsogiannis (2013)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Ramsey theory for words over a finite alphabet was unified in the work of Carlson, who also presented a method to extend the theory to words over an infinite alphabet, but subject to a fixed dominating principle. In the present work we establish an extension of Carlson's approach to countable ordinals and Schreier-type families developing an extended Ramsey theory for dominated words over a doubly infinite alphabet (in fact for ω-ℤ*-located words), and we apply this theory, exploiting the Budak-Işik-Pym...

Extended trees of graphs

Bohdan Zelinka (1994)

Mathematica Bohemica

An extended tree of a graph is a certain analogue of spanning tree. It is defined by means of vertex splitting. The properties of these trees are studied, mainly for complete graphs.

Extending the MAX Algorithm for Maximum Independent Set

Ngoc C. Lê, Christoph Brause, Ingo Schiermeyer (2015)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

The maximum independent set problem is an NP-hard problem. In this paper, we consider Algorithm MAX, which is a polynomial time algorithm for finding a maximal independent set in a graph G. We present a set of forbidden induced subgraphs such that Algorithm MAX always results in finding a maximum independent set of G. We also describe two modifications of Algorithm MAX and sets of forbidden induced subgraphs for the new algorithms.

Extension of several sufficient conditions for Hamiltonian graphs

Ahmed Ainouche (2006)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Let G be a 2-connected graph of order n. Suppose that for all 3-independent sets X in G, there exists a vertex u in X such that |N(X∖u)|+d(u) ≥ n-1. Using the concept of dual closure, we prove that 1. G is hamiltonian if and only if its 0-dual closure is either complete or the cycle C₇ 2. G is nonhamiltonian if and only if its 0-dual closure is either the graph ( K r K K ) K , 1 ≤ r ≤ s ≤ t or the graph ( ( n + 1 ) / 2 ) K K ( n - 1 ) / 2 . It follows that it takes a polynomial time to check the hamiltonicity or the nonhamiltonicity of a graph...
