Minimal vertex degree sum of a 3-path in plane maps

O.V. Borodin (1997)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let wₖ be the minimum degree sum of a path on k vertices in a graph. We prove for normal plane maps that: (1) if w₂ = 6, then w₃ may be arbitrarily big, (2) if w₂ < 6, then either w₃ ≤ 18 or there is a ≤ 15-vertex adjacent to two 3-vertices, and (3) if w₂ < 7, then w₃ ≤ 17.

An Extension of Kotzig’s Theorem

Valerii A. Aksenov, Oleg V. Borodin, Anna O. Ivanova (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

In 1955, Kotzig proved that every 3-connected planar graph has an edge with the degree sum of its end vertices at most 13, which is tight. An edge uv is of type (i, j) if d(u) ≤ i and d(v) ≤ j. Borodin (1991) proved that every normal plane map contains an edge of one of the types (3, 10), (4, 7), or (5, 6), which is tight. Cole, Kowalik, and Škrekovski (2007) deduced from this result by Borodin that Kotzig’s bound of 13 is valid for all planar graphs with minimum degree δ at least 2...

An Implicit Weighted Degree Condition For Heavy Cycles

Junqing Cai, Hao Li, Wantao Ning (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For a vertex v in a weighted graph G, idw(v) denotes the implicit weighted degree of v. In this paper, we obtain the following result: Let G be a 2-connected weighted graph which satisfies the following conditions: (a) The implicit weighted degree sum of any three independent vertices is at least t; (b) w(xz) = w(yz) for every vertex z ∈ N(x) ∩ N(y) with xy /∈ E(G); (c) In every triangle T of G, either all edges of T have different weights or all edges of T have the same weight. Then...

A note on face coloring entire weightings of plane graphs

Stanislav Jendrol, Peter Šugerek (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Given a weighting of all elements of a 2-connected plane graph G = (V,E, F), let f(α) denote the sum of the weights of the edges and vertices incident with the face _ and also the weight of _. Such an entire weighting is a proper face colouring provided that f(α) ≠ f(β) for every two faces α and _ sharing an edge. We show that for every 2-connected plane graph there is a proper face-colouring entire weighting with weights 1 through 4. For some families we improved 4 to 3

5-Stars of Low Weight in Normal Plane Maps with Minimum Degree 5

Oleg V. Borodin, Anna O. Ivanova, Tommy R. Jensen (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

It is known that there are normal plane maps M5 with minimum degree 5 such that the minimum degree-sum w(S5) of 5-stars at 5-vertices is arbitrarily large. In 1940, Lebesgue showed that if an M5 has no 4-stars of cyclic type (5, 6, 6, 5) centered at 5-vertices, then w(S5) ≤ 68. We improve this bound of 68 to 55 and give a construction of a (5, 6, 6, 5)-free M5 with w(S5) = 48
