On order and geodesic alignment of a connected bigraph
Route systems on graphs
The well known types of routes in graphs and directed graphs, such as walks, trails, paths, and induced paths, are characterized using axioms on vertex sequences. Thus non-graphic characterizations of the various types of routes are obtained.
The periphery graph of a median graph
The periphery graph of a median graph is the intersection graph of its peripheral subgraphs. We show that every graph without a universal vertex can be realized as the periphery graph of a median graph. We characterize those median graphs whose periphery graph is the join of two graphs and show that they are precisely Cartesian products of median graphs. Path-like median graphs are introduced as the graphs whose periphery graph has independence number 2, and it is proved that there are path-like...
n-ary transit functions in graphs
n-ary transit functions are introduced as a generalization of binary (2-ary) transit functions. We show that they can be associated with convexities in natural way and discuss the Steiner convexity as a natural n-ary generalization of geodesicaly convexity. Furthermore, we generalize the betweenness axioms to n-ary transit functions and discuss the connectivity conditions for underlying hypergraph. Also n-ary all paths transit function is considered.
A Note on the Interval Function of a Disconnected Graph
In this note we extend the Mulder-Nebeský characterization of the interval function of a connected graph to the disconnected case. One axiom needs to be adapted, but also a new axiom is needed in addition.
The all-paths transit function of a graph
A transit function on a set is a function satisfying the axioms , and , for all . The all-paths transit function of a connected graph is characterized by transit axioms.
