Bounds on the Signed 2-Independence Number in Graphs

Lutz Volkmann (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let G be a finite and simple graph with vertex set V (G), and let f V (G) → {−1, 1} be a two-valued function. If ∑x∈N|v| f(x) ≤ 1 for each v ∈ V (G), where N[v] is the closed neighborhood of v, then f is a signed 2-independence function on G. The weight of a signed 2-independence function f is w(f) =∑v∈V (G) f(v). The maximum of weights w(f), taken over all signed 2-independence functions f on G, is the signed 2-independence number α2s(G) of G. In this work, we mainly present upper bounds...

Signed k-independence in graphs

Lutz Volkmann (2014)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

Let k ≥ 2 be an integer. A function f: V(G) → −1, 1 defined on the vertex set V(G) of a graph G is a signed k-independence function if the sum of its function values over any closed neighborhood is at most k − 1. That is, Σx∈N[v] f(x) ≤ k − 1 for every v ∈ V(G), where N[v] consists of v and every vertex adjacent to v. The weight of a signed k-independence function f is w(f) = Σv∈V(G) f(v). The maximum weight w(f), taken over all signed k-independence functions f on G, is the signed k-independence...

A note on degree-continuous graphs

Chiang Lin, Wei-Bo Ou (2007)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The minimum orders of degree-continuous graphs with prescribed degree sets were investigated by Gimbel and Zhang, Czechoslovak Math. J. 51 (126) (2001), 163–171. The minimum orders were not completely determined in some cases. In this note, the exact values of the minimum orders for these cases are obtained by giving improved upper bounds.

On magic joins of graphs

Jaroslav Ivančo, Tatiana Polláková (2012)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

A graph is called magic (supermagic) if it admits a labeling of the edges by pairwise different (and consecutive) integers such that the sum of the labels of the edges incident with a vertex is independent of the particular vertex. In this paper we characterize magic joins of graphs and we establish some conditions for magic joins of graphs to be supermagic.
