On Twin Edge Colorings of Graphs

Eric Andrews, Laars Helenius, Daniel Johnston, Jonathon VerWys, Ping Zhang (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

A twin edge k-coloring of a graph G is a proper edge coloring of G with the elements of Zk so that the induced vertex coloring in which the color of a vertex v in G is the sum (in Zk) of the colors of the edges incident with v is a proper vertex coloring. The minimum k for which G has a twin edge k-coloring is called the twin chromatic index of G. Among the results presented are formulas for the twin chromatic index of each complete graph and each complete bipartite graph

On two transformations of graphs

Bohdan Zelinka (1997)

Mathematica Bohemica

The paper describes the properties of two transformations of graphs. One of them was introduced by F. Gliviak for the sake of study of metric properties of graphs, the other is related to it.

On Unique Minimum Dominating Sets in Some Cartesian Product Graphs

Jason T. Hedetniemi (2015)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Unique minimum vertex dominating sets in the Cartesian product of a graph with a complete graph are considered. We first give properties of such sets when they exist. We then show that when the first factor of the product is a tree, consideration of the tree alone is sufficient to determine if the product has a unique minimum dominating set.

On Uniquely Hamiltonian Claw-Free and Triangle-Free Graphs

Ben Seamone (2015)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

A graph is uniquely Hamiltonian if it contains exactly one Hamiltonian cycle. In this note, we prove that claw-free graphs with minimum degree at least 3 are not uniquely Hamiltonian. We also show that this is best possible by exhibiting uniquely Hamiltonian claw-free graphs with minimum degree 2 and arbitrary maximum degree. Finally, we show that a construction due to Entringer and Swart can be modified to construct triangle-free uniquely Hamiltonian graphs with minimum degree 3.

On uniquely partitionable relational structures and object systems

Jozef Bucko, Peter Mihók (2006)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

We introduce object systems as a common generalization of graphs, hypergraphs, digraphs and relational structures. Let C be a concrete category, a simple object system over C is an ordered pair S = (V,E), where E = A₁,A₂,...,Aₘ is a finite set of the objects of C, such that the ground-set V ( A i ) of each object A i E is a finite set with at least two elements and V i = 1 m V ( A i ) . To generalize the results on graph colourings to simple object systems we define, analogously as for graphs, that an additive induced-hereditary...

On universal graphs for hom-properties

Peter Mihók, Jozef Miškuf, Gabriel Semanišin (2009)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

A graph property is any isomorphism closed class of simple graphs. For a simple finite graph H, let → H denote the class of all simple countable graphs that admit homomorphisms to H, such classes of graphs are called hom-properties. Given a graph property 𝓟, a graph G ∈ 𝓟 is universal in 𝓟 if each member of 𝓟 is isomorphic to an induced subgraph of G. In particular, we consider universal graphs in → H and we give a new proof of the existence of a universal graph in → H, for any finite graph...
