Lower bounds on signed edge total domination numbers in graphs

H. Karami, S. M. Sheikholeslami, Abdollah Khodkar (2008)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The open neighborhood N G ( e ) of an edge e in a graph G is the set consisting of all edges having a common end-vertex with e . Let f be a function on E ( G ) , the edge set of G , into the set { - 1 , 1 } . If x N G ( e ) f ( x ) 1 for each e E ( G ) , then f is called a signed edge total dominating function of G . The minimum of the values e E ( G ) f ( e ) , taken over all signed edge total dominating function f of G , is called the signed edge total domination number of G and is denoted by γ s t ' ( G ) . Obviously, γ s t ' ( G ) is defined only for graphs G which have no connected...

Median of a graph with respect to edges

A.P. Santhakumaran (2012)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For any vertex v and any edge e in a non-trivial connected graph G, the distance sum d(v) of v is d ( v ) = u V d ( v , u ) , the vertex-to-edge distance sum d₁(v) of v is d ( v ) = e E d ( v , e ) , the edge-to-vertex distance sum d₂(e) of e is d ( e ) = v V d ( e , v ) and the edge-to-edge distance sum d₃(e) of e is d ( e ) = f E d ( e , f ) . The set M(G) of all vertices v for which d(v) is minimum is the median of G; the set M₁(G) of all vertices v for which d₁(v) is minimum is the vertex-to-edge median of G; the set M₂(G) of all edges e for which d₂(e) is minimum is the edge-to-vertex...

Graceful signed graphs

Mukti Acharya, Tarkeshwar Singh (2004)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A ( p , q ) -sigraph S is an ordered pair ( G , s ) where G = ( V , E ) is a ( p , q ) -graph and s is a function which assigns to each edge of G a positive or a negative sign. Let the sets E + and E - consist of m positive and n negative edges of G , respectively, where m + n = q . Given positive integers k and d , S is said to be ( k , d ) -graceful if the vertices of G can be labeled with distinct integers from the set { 0 , 1 , , k + ( q - 1 ) d } such that when each edge u v of G is assigned the product of its sign and the absolute difference of the integers assigned to...

Labeling the vertex amalgamation of graphs

Ramon M. Figueroa-Centeno, Rikio Ichishima, Francesc A. Muntaner-Batle (2003)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A graph G of size q is graceful if there exists an injective function f:V(G)→ 0,1,...,q such that each edge uv of G is labeled |f(u)-f(v)| and the resulting edge labels are distinct. Also, a (p,q) graph G with q ≥ p is harmonious if there exists an injective function f : V ( G ) Z q such that each edge uv of G is labeled f(u) + f(v) mod q and the resulting edge labels are distinct, whereas G is felicitous if there exists an injective function f : V ( G ) Z q + 1 such that each edge uv of G is labeled f(u) + f(v) mod...

Fires on trees

Jean Bertoin (2012)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

We consider random dynamics on the edges of a uniform Cayley tree with n vertices, in which edges are either flammable, fireproof, or burnt. Every flammable edge is replaced by a fireproof edge at unit rate, while fires start at smaller rate n - α on each flammable edge, then propagate through the neighboring flammable edges and are only stopped at fireproof edges. A vertex is called fireproof when all its adjacent edges are fireproof. We show that as n , the terminal density of fireproof...

Color-bounded hypergraphs, V: host graphs and subdivisions

Csilla Bujtás, Zsolt Tuza, Vitaly Voloshin (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A color-bounded hypergraph is a hypergraph (set system) with vertex set X and edge set = E₁,...,Eₘ, together with integers s i and t i satisfying 1 s i t i | E i | for each i = 1,...,m. A vertex coloring φ is proper if for every i, the number of colors occurring in edge E i satisfies s i | φ ( E i ) | t i . The hypergraph ℋ is colorable if it admits at least one proper coloring. We consider hypergraphs ℋ over a “host graph”, that means a graph G on the same vertex set X as ℋ, such that each E i induces a connected subgraph in G....

Sum labellings of cycle hypergraphs

Hanns-Martin Teichert (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A hypergraph is a sum hypergraph iff there are a finite S ⊆ IN⁺ and d̲, [d̅] ∈ IN⁺ with 1 < d̲ ≤ [d̅] such that is isomorphic to the hypergraph d ̲ , [ d ̅ ] ( S ) = ( V , ) where V = S and = e S : d ̲ | e | [ d ̅ ] v e v S . For an arbitrary hypergraph the sum number σ = σ() is defined to be the minimum number of isolated vertices y , . . . , y σ V such that y , . . . , y σ is a sum hypergraph. Generalizing the graph Cₙ we obtain d-uniform hypergraphs where any d consecutive vertices of Cₙ form an edge. We determine sum numbers and investigate properties of sum labellings...

On-line ranking number for cycles and paths

Erik Bruoth, Mirko Horňák (1999)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A k-ranking of a graph G is a colouring φ:V(G) → 1,...,k such that any path in G with endvertices x,y fulfilling φ(x) = φ(y) contains an internal vertex z with φ(z) > φ(x). On-line ranking number χ * r ( G ) of a graph G is a minimum k such that G has a k-ranking constructed step by step if vertices of G are coming and coloured one by one in an arbitrary order; when colouring a vertex, only edges between already present vertices are known. Schiermeyer, Tuza and Voigt proved that χ * r ( P ) < 3 l o g n for n ≥ 2....

Domination Subdivision Numbers

Teresa W. Haynes, Sandra M. Hedetniemi, Stephen T. Hedetniemi, David P. Jacobs, James Knisely, Lucas C. van der Merwe (2001)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A set S of vertices of a graph G = (V,E) is a dominating set if every vertex of V-S is adjacent to some vertex in S. The domination number γ(G) is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of G, and the domination subdivision number s d γ ( G ) is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided (each edge in G can be subdivided at most once) in order to increase the domination number. Arumugam conjectured that 1 s d γ ( G ) 3 for any graph G. We give a counterexample to this conjecture. On the other hand,...
