On a perfect problem

Igor E. Zverovich (2006)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

We solve Open Problem (xvi) from Perfect Problems of Chvátal [1] available at ftp://dimacs.rutgers.edu/pub/perfect/problems.tex: Is there a class C of perfect graphs such that (a) C does not include all perfect graphs and (b) every perfect graph contains a vertex whose neighbors induce a subgraph that belongs to C? A class P is called locally reducible if there exists a proper subclass C of P such that every graph in P contains a local subgraph belonging...

On a problem concerning k -subdomination numbers of graphs

Bohdan Zelinka (2003)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

One of numerical invariants concerning domination in graphs is the k -subdomination number γ k S - 11 ( G ) of a graph G . A conjecture concerning it was expressed by J. H. Hattingh, namely that for any connected graph G with n vertices and any k with 1 2 n < k n the inequality γ k S - 11 ( G ) 2 k - n holds. This paper presents a simple counterexample which disproves this conjecture. This counterexample is the graph of the three-dimensional cube and k = 5 .

On a problem of colouring the real plane

Filip Guldan (1991)

Mathematica Bohemica

What is the least number of colours which can be used to colour all points of the real Euclidean plane so that no two points which are unit distance apart have the same colour? This well known problem, open more than 25 years is studied in the paper. Some partial results and open subproblems are presented.

On a problem of E. Prisner concerning the biclique operator

Bohdan Zelinka (2002)

Mathematica Bohemica

The symbol K ( B , C ) denotes a directed graph with the vertex set B C for two (not necessarily disjoint) vertex sets B , C in which an arc goes from each vertex of B into each vertex of C . A subdigraph of a digraph D which has this form is called a bisimplex in D . A biclique in D is a bisimplex in D which is not a proper subgraph of any other and in which B and C . The biclique digraph C ( D ) of D is the digraph whose vertex set is the set of all bicliques in D and in which there is an arc from K ( B 1 , C 1 ) into K ( B 2 , C 2 ) if and only...
