The vertex monophonic number of a graph

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For a connected graph G of order p ≥ 2 and a vertex x of G, a set S ⊆ V(G) is an x-monophonic set of G if each vertex v ∈ V(G) lies on an x -y monophonic path for some element y in S. The minimum cardinality of an x-monophonic set of G is defined as the x-monophonic number of G, denoted by mₓ(G). An x-monophonic set of cardinality mₓ(G) is called a mₓ-set of G. We determine bounds for it and characterize graphs which realize these bounds. A connected graph of order p with vertex monophonic...

On the Rainbow Vertex-Connection

Xueliang Li, Yongtang Shi (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A vertex-colored graph is rainbow vertex-connected if any two vertices are connected by a path whose internal vertices have distinct colors. The rainbow vertex-connection of a connected graph G, denoted by rvc(G), is the smallest number of colors that are needed in order to make G rainbow vertexconnected. It was proved that if G is a graph of order n with minimum degree δ, then rvc(G) < 11n/δ. In this paper, we show that rvc(G) ≤ 3n/(δ+1)+5 for [xxx] and n ≥ 290, while rvc(G) ≤ 4n/(δ...
