Signed total domination number of a graph

Bohdan Zelinka (2001)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The signed total domination number of a graph is a certain variant of the domination number. If v is a vertex of a graph G , then N ( v ) is its oper neighbourhood, i.e. the set of all vertices adjacent to v in G . A mapping f : V ( G ) { - 1 , 1 } , where V ( G ) is the vertex set of G , is called a signed total dominating function (STDF) on G , if x N ( v ) f ( x ) 1 for each v V ( G ) . The minimum of values x V ( G ) f ( x ) , taken over all STDF’s of G , is called the signed total domination number of G and denoted by γ s t ( G ) . A theorem stating lower bounds for γ s t ( G ) is stated for the...

Signed Total Roman Domination in Digraphs

Lutz Volkmann (2017)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Let D be a finite and simple digraph with vertex set V (D). A signed total Roman dominating function (STRDF) on a digraph D is a function f : V (D) → {−1, 1, 2} satisfying the conditions that (i) ∑x∈N−(v) f(x) ≥ 1 for each v ∈ V (D), where N−(v) consists of all vertices of D from which arcs go into v, and (ii) every vertex u for which f(u) = −1 has an inner neighbor v for which f(v) = 2. The weight of an STRDF f is w(f) = ∑v∈V (D) f(v). The signed total Roman domination number γstR(D) of D is the...

Signpost systems and spanning trees of graphs

Ladislav Nebeský (2006)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

By a ternary system we mean an ordered pair ( W , R ) , where W is a finite nonempty set and R W × W × W . By a signpost system we mean a ternary system ( W , R ) satisfying the following conditions for all x , y , z W : if ( x , y , z ) R , then ( y , x , x ) R and ( y , x , z ) R ; if x y , then there exists t W such that ( x , t , y ) R . In this paper, a signpost system is used as a common description of a connected graph and a spanning tree of the graph. By a ct-pair we mean an ordered pair ( G , T ) , where G is a connected graph and T is a spanning tree of G . If ( G , T ) is a ct-pair, then by the guide to...

Simple Graphs as Simplicial Complexes: the Mycielskian of a Graph

Piotr Rudnicki, Lorna Stewart (2012)

Formalized Mathematics

Harary [10, p. 7] claims that Veblen [20, p. 2] first suggested to formalize simple graphs using simplicial complexes. We have developed basic terminology for simple graphs as at most 1-dimensional complexes. We formalize this new setting and then reprove Mycielski’s [12] construction resulting in a triangle-free graph with arbitrarily large chromatic number. A different formalization of similar material is in [15].

Simplicial and nonsimplicial complete subgraphs

Terry A. McKee (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Define a complete subgraph Q to be simplicial in a graph G when Q is contained in exactly one maximal complete subgraph ('maxclique') of G; otherwise, Q is nonsimplicial. Several graph classes-including strong p-Helly graphs and strongly chordal graphs-are shown to have pairs of peculiarly related new characterizations: (i) for every k ≤ 2, a certain property holds for the complete subgraphs that are in k or more maxcliques of G, and (ii) in every induced subgraph H of G, that same property...
