On linear layouts of graphs.
A graph is 1-planar if it can be embedded in the plane so that each edge is crossed by at most one other edge. We prove that each 1-planar graph of minimum degree 5 and girth 4 contains (1) a 5-vertex adjacent to an ≤ 6-vertex, (2) a 4-cycle whose every vertex has degree at most 9, (3) a with all vertices having degree at most 11.
A total dominating set of a graph G = (V,E) with no isolated vertex is a set S ⊆ V such that every vertex is adjacent to a vertex in S. A total dominating set S of a graph G is a locating-total dominating set if for every pair of distinct vertices u and v in V-S, N(u)∩S ≠ N(v)∩S, and S is a differentiating-total dominating set if for every pair of distinct vertices u and v in V, N[u]∩S ≠ N[v] ∩S. Let and be the minimum cardinality of a locating-total dominating set and a differentiating-total...
A set D of vertices in a graph G = (V,E) is a locating-dominating set (LDS) if for every two vertices u,v of V-D the sets N(u)∩ D and N(v)∩ D are non-empty and different. The locating-domination number is the minimum cardinality of a LDS of G, and the upper locating-domination number, is the maximum cardinality of a minimal LDS of G. We present different bounds on and .
For a 3-connected planar graph G with circumference c ≥ 44 it is proved that G has a cycle of length at least (1/36)c+(20/3) through any four vertices of G.
A planar 3-connected graph G is essentially 4-connected if, for any 3-separator S of G, one component of the graph obtained from G by removing S is a single vertex. Jackson and Wormald proved that an essentially 4-connected planar graph on n vertices contains a cycle C such that [...] . For a cubic essentially 4-connected planar graph G, Grünbaum with Malkevitch, and Zhang showed that G has a cycle on at least ¾ n vertices. In the present paper the result of Jackson and Wormald is improved. Moreover,...
A graph is called magic (supermagic) if it admits a labelling of the edges by pairwise different (consecutive) positive integers such that the sum of the labels of the edges incident with a vertex is independent of the particular vertex. We characterize magic line graphs of general graphs and describe some class of supermagic line graphs of bipartite graphs.
A graph is called magic (supermagic) if it admits a labeling of the edges by pairwise different (and consecutive) integers such that the sum of the labels of the edges incident with a vertex is independent of the particular vertex. In this paper we characterize magic joins of graphs and we establish some conditions for magic joins of graphs to be supermagic.
