Relating 2-Rainbow Domination To Roman Domination

José D. Alvarado, Simone Dantas, Dieter Rautenbach (2017)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For a graph G, let R(G) and yr2(G) denote the Roman domination number of G and the 2-rainbow domination number of G, respectively. It is known that yr2(G) ≤ R(G) ≤ 3/2yr2(G). Fujita and Furuya [Difference between 2-rainbow domination and Roman domination in graphs, Discrete Appl. Math. 161 (2013) 806-812] present some kind of characterization of the graphs G for which R(G) − yr2(G) = k for some integer k. Unfortunately, their result does not lead to an algorithm that allows to recognize...

Dominant-matching graphs

Igor' E. Zverovich, Olga I. Zverovich (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

We introduce a new hereditary class of graphs, the dominant-matching graphs, and we characterize it in terms of forbidden induced subgraphs.

Radio Graceful Hamming Graphs

Amanda Niedzialomski (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For k ∈ ℤ+ and G a simple, connected graph, a k-radio labeling f : V (G) → ℤ+ of G requires all pairs of distinct vertices u and v to satisfy |f(u) − f(v)| ≥ k + 1 − d(u, v). We consider k-radio labelings of G when k = diam(G). In this setting, f is injective; if f is also surjective onto {1, 2, . . . , |V (G)|}, then f is a consecutive radio labeling. Graphs that can be labeled with such a labeling are called radio graceful. In this paper, we give two results on the existence of radio...

On Generalized Sierpiński Graphs

Juan Alberto Rodríguez-Velázquez, Erick David Rodríguez-Bazan, Alejandro Estrada-Moreno (2017)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

In this paper we obtain closed formulae for several parameters of generalized Sierpiński graphs S(G, t) in terms of parameters of the base graph G. In particular, we focus on the chromatic, vertex cover, clique and domination numbers.

Union of Distance Magic Graphs

Sylwia Cichacz, Mateusz Nikodem (2017)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A distance magic labeling of a graph G = (V,E) with |V | = n is a bijection ℓ from V to the set {1, . . . , n} such that the weight w(x) = ∑y∈NG(x) ℓ(y) of every vertex x ∈ V is equal to the same element μ, called the magic constant. In this paper, we study unions of distance magic graphs as well as some properties of such graphs.

Dominating bipartite subgraphs in graphs

Gábor Bacsó, Danuta Michalak, Zsolt Tuza (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A graph G is hereditarily dominated by a class 𝓓 of connected graphs if each connected induced subgraph of G contains a dominating induced subgraph belonging to 𝓓. In this paper we characterize graphs hereditarily dominated by classes of complete bipartite graphs, stars, connected bipartite graphs, and complete k-partite graphs.

Isomorphic components of Kronecker product of bipartite graphs

Pranava K. Jha, Sandi Klavžar, Blaž Zmazek (1997)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Weichsel (Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 13 (1962) 47-52) proved that the Kronecker product of two connected bipartite graphs consists of two connected components. A condition on the factor graphs is presented which ensures that such components are isomorphic. It is demonstrated that several familiar and easily constructible graphs are amenable to that condition. A partial converse is proved for the above condition and it is conjectured that the converse is true in general.

Characterizing Cartesian fixers and multipliers

Stephen Benecke, Christina M. Mynhardt (2012)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let G ☐ H denote the Cartesian product of the graphs G and H. In 2004, Hartnell and Rall [On dominating the Cartesian product of a graph and K₂, Discuss. Math. Graph Theory 24(3) (2004), 389-402] characterized prism fixers, i.e., graphs G for which γ(G ☐ K₂) = γ(G), and noted that γ(G ☐ Kₙ) ≥ min{|V(G)|, γ(G)+n-2}. We call a graph G a consistent fixer if γ(G ☐ Kₙ) = γ(G)+n-2 for each n such that 2 ≤ n < |V(G)|- γ(G)+2, and characterize this class of graphs. Also...

Placing bipartite graphs of small size II

Beata Orchel (1996)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

In this paper we give all pairs of non mutually placeable (p,q)-bipartite graphs G and H such that 2 ≤ p ≤ q, e(H) ≤ p and e(G)+e(H) ≤ 2p+q-1.

On generating sets of induced-hereditary properties

Gabriel Semanišin (2002)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A natural generalization of the fundamental graph vertex-colouring problem leads to the class of problems known as generalized or improper colourings. These problems can be very well described in the language of reducible (induced) hereditary properties of graphs. It turned out that a very useful tool for the unique determination of these properties are generating sets. In this paper we focus on the structure of specific generating sets which provide the base for the proof of The Unique...

The Thickness of Amalgamations and Cartesian Product of Graphs

Yan Yang, Yichao Chen (2017)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The thickness of a graph is the minimum number of planar spanning subgraphs into which the graph can be decomposed. It is a measurement of the closeness to the planarity of a graph, and it also has important applications to VLSI design, but it has been known for only few graphs. We obtain the thickness of vertex-amalgamation and bar-amalgamation of graphs, the lower and upper bounds for the thickness of edge-amalgamation and 2-vertex-amalgamation of graphs, respectively. We also study...

Gamma Graphs Of Some Special Classes Of Trees

Anna Bień (2015)

Annales Mathematicae Silesianae

Similarity:

A set S ⊂ V is a dominating set of a graph G = (V, E) if every vertex υ ∈ V which does not belong to S has a neighbour in S. The domination number γ(G) of the graph G is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set in G. A dominating set S is a γ-set in G if |S| = γ(G). Some graphs have exponentially many γ-sets, hence it is worth to ask a question if a γ-set can be obtained by some transformations from another γ-set. The study of gamma graphs is an answer to this reconfiguration problem....

On θ-graphs of partial cubes

Sandi Klavžar, Matjaz Kovse (2007)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The Θ-graph Θ(G) of a partial cube G is the intersection graph of the equivalence classes of the Djoković-Winkler relation. Θ-graphs that are 2-connected, trees, or complete graphs are characterized. In particular, Θ(G) is complete if and only if G can be obtained from K₁ by a sequence of (newly introduced) dense expansions. Θ-graphs are also compared with familiar concepts of crossing graphs and τ-graphs.

On dually compact closed classes of graphs and BFS-constructible graphs

Norbert Polat (2003)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A class C of graphs is said to be dually compact closed if, for every infinite G ∈ C, each finite subgraph of G is contained in a finite induced subgraph of G which belongs to C. The class of trees and more generally the one of chordal graphs are dually compact closed. One of the main part of this paper is to settle a question of Hahn, Sands, Sauer and Woodrow by showing that the class of bridged graphs is dually compact closed. To prove this result we use the concept of constructible...
