The decomposability of additive hereditary properties of graphs

Izak Broere, Michael J. Dorfling (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

An additive hereditary property of graphs is a class of simple graphs which is closed under unions, subgraphs and isomorphisms. If ₁,...,ₙ are properties of graphs, then a (₁,...,ₙ)-decomposition of a graph G is a partition E₁,...,Eₙ of E(G) such that G [ E i ] , the subgraph of G induced by E i , is in i , for i = 1,...,n. We define ₁ ⊕...⊕ ₙ as the property G ∈ : G has a (₁,...,ₙ)-decomposition. A property is said to be decomposable if there exist non-trivial hereditary properties ₁ and ₂ such...

Criteria for of the existence of uniquely partitionable graphs with respect to additive induced-hereditary properties

Izak Broere, Jozef Bucko, Peter Mihók (2002)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let ₁,₂,...,ₙ be graph properties, a graph G is said to be uniquely (₁,₂, ...,ₙ)-partitionable if there is exactly one (unordered) partition V₁,V₂,...,Vₙ of V(G) such that G [ V i ] i for i = 1,2,...,n. We prove that for additive and induced-hereditary properties uniquely (₁,₂,...,ₙ)-partitionable graphs exist if and only if i and j are either coprime or equal irreducible properties of graphs for every i ≠ j, i,j ∈ 1,2,...,n.

Mieczysław Borowiecki, Anna Fiedorowicz, Mariusz Hałuszczak (2009)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For a given graph G and a sequence ₁, ₂,..., ₙ of additive hereditary classes of graphs we define an acyclic (₁, ₂,...,Pₙ)-colouring of G as a partition (V₁, V₂,...,Vₙ) of the set V(G) of vertices which satisfies the following two conditions: 1. G [ V i ] i for i = 1,...,n, 2. for every pair i,j of distinct colours the subgraph induced in G by the set of edges uv such that u V i and v V j is acyclic. A class R = ₁ ⊙ ₂ ⊙ ... ⊙ ₙ is defined as the set of the graphs having an acyclic (₁, ₂,...,Pₙ)-colouring....

Additive decomposition of matrices under rank conditions and zero pattern constraints

Harm Bart, Torsten Ehrhardt (2022)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

This paper deals with additive decompositions A = A 1 + + A p of a given matrix A , where the ranks of the summands A 1 , ... , A p are prescribed and meet certain zero pattern requirements. The latter are formulated in terms of directed bipartite graphs.

Izak Broere, Samantha Dorfling, Elizabeth Jonck (2002)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

An additive hereditary property of graphs is a class of simple graphs which is closed under unions, subgraphs and isomorphisms. Let and be additive hereditary properties of graphs. The generalized chromatic number χ ( ) is defined as follows: χ ( ) = n iff ⊆ ⁿ but n - 1 . We investigate the generalized chromatic numbers of the well-known properties of graphs ₖ, ₖ, ₖ, ₖ and ₖ.

On characterization of uniquely 3-list colorable complete multipartite graphs

Yancai Zhao, Erfang Shan (2010)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For each vertex v of a graph G, if there exists a list of k colors, L(v), such that there is a unique proper coloring for G from this collection of lists, then G is called a uniquely k-list colorable graph. Ghebleh and Mahmoodian characterized uniquely 3-list colorable complete multipartite graphs except for nine graphs: K 2 , 2 , r r ∈ 4,5,6,7,8, K 2 , 3 , 4 , K 1 * 4 , 4 , K 1 * 4 , 5 , K 1 * 5 , 4 . Also, they conjectured that the nine graphs are not U3LC graphs. After that, except for K 2 , 2 , r r ∈ 4,5,6,7,8, the others have been proved not...

Reducible properties of graphs

P. Mihók, G. Semanišin (1995)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let L be the set of all hereditary and additive properties of graphs. For P₁, P₂ ∈ L, the reducible property R = P₁∘P₂ is defined as follows: G ∈ R if and only if there is a partition V(G) = V₁∪ V₂ of the vertex set of G such that V G P and V G P . The aim of this paper is to investigate the structure of the reducible properties of graphs with emphasis on the uniqueness of the decomposition of a reducible property into irreducible ones.

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

We prove: (1) that c h P ( G ) - χ P ( G ) can be arbitrarily large, where c h P ( G ) and χ P ( G ) are P-choice and P-chromatic numbers, respectively, (2) the (P,L)-colouring version of Brooks’ and Gallai’s theorems.

Decomposition of complete bipartite digraphs and even complete bipartite multigraphs into closed trails

Sylwia Cichacz (2007)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

It has been shown [3] that any bipartite graph K a , b , where a, b are even integers, can be decomposed into closed trails with prescribed even lengths. In this article, we consider the corresponding question for directed bipartite graphs. We show that a complete directed bipartite graph K a , b is decomposable into directed closed trails of even lengths greater than 2, whenever these lengths sum up to the size of the digraph. We use this result to prove that complete bipartite multigraphs can be...

Graphs with small additive stretch number

Dieter Rautenbach (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The additive stretch number s a d d ( G ) of a graph G is the maximum difference of the lengths of a longest induced path and a shortest induced path between two vertices of G that lie in the same component of G.We prove some properties of minimal forbidden configurations for the induced-hereditary classes of graphs G with s a d d ( G ) k for some k ∈ N₀ = 0,1,2,.... Furthermore, we derive characterizations of these classes for k = 1 and k = 2.

Generalized connectivity of some total graphs

Yinkui Li, Yaping Mao, Zhao Wang, Zongtian Wei (2021)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We study the generalized k -connectivity κ k ( G ) as introduced by Hager in 1985, as well as the more recently introduced generalized k -edge-connectivity λ k ( G ) . We determine the exact value of κ k ( G ) and λ k ( G ) for the line graphs and total graphs of trees, unicyclic graphs, and also for complete graphs for the case k = 3 .

Nearly complete graphs decomposable into large induced matchings and their applications

Noga Alon, Ankur Moitra, Benjamin Sudakov (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We describe two constructions of (very) dense graphs which are edge disjoint unions of large induced matchings. The first construction exhibits graphs on N vertices with ( N 2 ) - o ( N 2 ) edges, which can be decomposed into pairwise disjoint induced matchings, each of size N 1 - o ( 1 ) . The second construction provides a covering of all edges of the complete graph K N by two graphs, each being the edge disjoint union of at most N 2 - δ induced matchings, where δ > 0 , 076 . This disproves (in a strong form) a conjecture of Meshulam,...

Remarks on D -integral complete multipartite graphs

Pavel Híc, Milan Pokorný (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A graph is called distance integral (or D -integral) if all eigenvalues of its distance matrix are integers. In their study of D -integral complete multipartite graphs, Yang and Wang (2015) posed two questions on the existence of such graphs. We resolve these questions and present some further results on D -integral complete multipartite graphs. We give the first known distance integral complete multipartite graphs K p 1 , p 2 , p 3 with p 1 < p 2 < p 3 , and K p 1 , p 2 , p 3 , p 4 with p 1 < p 2 < p 3 < p 4 , as well as the infinite classes of distance integral...

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let be a set of graphs and for a graph G let α ( G ) and α * ( G ) denote the maximum order of an induced subgraph of G which does not contain a graph in as a subgraph and which does not contain a graph in as an induced subgraph, respectively. Lower bounds on α ( G ) and α * ( G ) are presented.

2-halvable complete 4-partite graphs

Dalibor Fronček (1998)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A complete 4-partite graph K m , m , m , m is called d-halvable if it can be decomposed into two isomorphic factors of diameter d. In the class of graphs K m , m , m , m with at most one odd part all d-halvable graphs are known. In the class of biregular graphs K m , m , m , m with four odd parts (i.e., the graphs K m , m , m , n and K m , m , n , n ) all d-halvable graphs are known as well, except for the graphs K m , m , n , n when d = 2 and n ≠ m. We prove that such graphs are 2-halvable iff n,m ≥ 3. We also determine a new class of non-halvable graphs K m , m , m , m with three...

Paired domination in prisms of graphs

Christina M. Mynhardt, Mark Schurch (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The paired domination number γ p r ( G ) of a graph G is the smallest cardinality of a dominating set S of G such that ⟨S⟩ has a perfect matching. The generalized prisms πG of G are the graphs obtained by joining the vertices of two disjoint copies of G by |V(G)| independent edges. We provide characterizations of the following three classes of graphs: γ p r ( π G ) = 2 γ p r ( G ) for all πG; γ p r ( K G ) = 2 γ p r ( G ) ; γ p r ( K G ) = γ p r ( G ) .

For the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) on Halin graphs with three types of cost functions: sum, bottleneck and balanced and with arbitrary real edge costs we compute in polynomial time the persistency partition E A l l , E S o m e , E N o n e of the edge set E, where: E A l l = e ∈ E, e belongs to all optimum solutions, E N o n e = e ∈ E, e does not belong to any optimum solution and E S o m e = e ∈ E, e belongs to some but not to all optimum solutions.

Uniquely partitionable graphs

Jozef Bucko, Marietjie Frick, Peter Mihók, Roman Vasky (1997)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let ₁,...,ₙ be properties of graphs. A (₁,...,ₙ)-partition of a graph G is a partition of the vertex set V(G) into subsets V₁, ...,Vₙ such that the subgraph G [ V i ] induced by V i has property i ; i = 1,...,n. A graph G is said to be uniquely (₁, ...,ₙ)-partitionable if G has exactly one (₁,...,ₙ)-partition. A property is called hereditary if every subgraph of every graph with property also has property . If every graph that is a disjoint union of two graphs that have property also has property...

On generalized shift graphs

Christian Avart, Tomasz Łuczak, Vojtěch Rödl (2014)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

In 1968 Erdős and Hajnal introduced shift graphs as graphs whose vertices are the k-element subsets of [n] = 1,...,n (or of an infinite cardinal κ ) and with two k-sets A = a , . . . , a k and B = b , . . . , b k joined if a < a = b < a = b < < a k = b k - 1 < b k . They determined the chromatic number of these graphs. In this paper we extend this definition and study the chromatic number of graphs defined similarly for other types of mutual position with respect to the underlying ordering. As a consequence of our result, we show the existence of a graph with...
