Power Domination in Knödel Graphs and Hanoi Graphs

Seethu Varghese, A. Vijayakumar, Andreas M. Hinz (2018)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

In this paper, we study the power domination problem in Knödel graphs WΔ,2ν and Hanoi graphs [...] Hpn $H_{p}^{n}$ . We determine the power domination number of W3,2ν and provide an upper bound for the power domination number of Wr+1,2r+1 for r ≥ 3. We also compute the k-power domination number and the k-propagation radius of [...] Hp2 $H_{p}^{2}$ .

Graphs with large double domination numbers

Michael A. Henning (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

In a graph G, a vertex dominates itself and its neighbors. A subset S ⊆ V(G) is a double dominating set of G if S dominates every vertex of G at least twice. The minimum cardinality of a double dominating set of G is the double domination number $γ_{\times 2} (G)$ . If G ≠ C₅ is a connected graph of order n with minimum degree at least 2, then we show that $γ_{\times 2} (G) \leq 3 n / 4$ and we characterize those graphs achieving equality.

On choosability of complete multipartite graphs $K_{4, 3 * t, 2 * (k - 2 t - 2), 1 * (t + 1)}$

Guo-Ping Zheng, Yu-Fa Shen, Zuo-Li Chen, Jin-Feng Lv (2010)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A graph G is said to be chromatic-choosable if ch(G) = χ(G). Ohba has conjectured that every graph G with 2χ(G)+1 or fewer vertices is chromatic-choosable. It is clear that Ohba’s conjecture is true if and only if it is true for complete multipartite graphs. In this paper we show that Ohba’s conjecture is true for complete multipartite graphs $K_{4, 3 * t, 2 * (k - 2 t - 2), 1 * (t + 1)}$ for all integers t ≥ 1 and k ≥ 2t+2, that is, $c h (K_{4, 3 * t, 2 * (k - 2 t - 2), 1 * (t + 1)}) = k$ , which extends the results $c h (K_{4, 3, 2 * (k - 4), 1 * 2}) = k$ given by Shen et al. (Discrete Math. 308 (2008) 136-143), and $c h (K_{4, 3 * 2, 2 * (k - 6), 1 * 3}) = k$ ...

A remark on the (2,2)-domination number

Torsten Korneffel, Dirk Meierling, Lutz Volkmann (2008)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A subset D of the vertex set of a graph G is a (k,p)-dominating set if every vertex v ∈ V(G)∖D is within distance k to at least p vertices in D. The parameter $γ_{k, p} (G)$ denotes the minimum cardinality of a (k,p)-dominating set of G. In 1994, Bean, Henning and Swart posed the conjecture that $γ_{k, p} (G) \leq (p / (p + k)) n (G)$ for any graph G with δₖ(G) ≥ k+p-1, where the latter means that every vertex is within distance k to at least k+p-1 vertices other than itself. In 2005, Fischermann and Volkmann confirmed this conjecture...

2-halvable complete 4-partite graphs

Dalibor Fronček (1998)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A complete 4-partite graph $K_{m ₁, m ₂, m ₃, m ₄}$ is called d-halvable if it can be decomposed into two isomorphic factors of diameter d. In the class of graphs $K_{m ₁, m ₂, m ₃, m ₄}$ with at most one odd part all d-halvable graphs are known. In the class of biregular graphs $K_{m ₁, m ₂, m ₃, m ₄}$ 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 $K_{m ₁, m ₂, m ₃, m ₄}$ with three...

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 $A = a ₁, . . ., a_{k}$ and $B = b ₁, . . ., b_{k}$ joined if $a ₁ < a ₂ = b ₁ < a ₃ = b ₂ < \dots < a_{k} = b_{k - 1} < b_{k}$ . 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...

Graph domination in distance two

Gábor Bacsó, Attila Tálos, Zsolt Tuza (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let G = (V,E) be a graph, and k ≥ 1 an integer. A subgraph D is said to be k-dominating in G if every vertex of G-D is at distance at most k from some vertex of D. For a given class of graphs, Domₖ is the set of those graphs G in which every connected induced subgraph H has some k-dominating induced subgraph D ∈ which is also connected. In our notation, Dom coincides with Dom₁. In this paper we prove that $D o m D o m_{u} = D o m ₂_{u}$ holds for $_{u}$ = all connected graphs without induced $P_{u}$ (u ≥ 2). (In particular,...

Edge-connectivity of strong products of graphs

Bostjan Bresar, Simon Spacapan (2007)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The strong product G₁ ⊠ G₂ of graphs G₁ and G₂ is the graph with V(G₁)×V(G₂) as the vertex set, and two distinct vertices (x₁,x₂) and (y₁,y₂) are adjacent whenever for each i ∈ 1,2 either $x_{i} = y_{i}$ or $x_{i} y_{i} \in E (G_{i})$ . In this note we show that for two connected graphs G₁ and G₂ the edge-connectivity λ (G₁ ⊠ G₂) equals minδ(G₁ ⊠ G₂), λ(G₁)(|V(G₂)| + 2|E(G₂)|), λ(G₂)(|V(G₁)| + 2|E(G₁)|). In addition, we fully describe the structure of possible minimum edge cut sets in strong products of graphs.

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 $G [V_{i}] \in_{i}$ 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.

4-cycle properties for characterizing rectagraphs and hypercubes

Khadra Bouanane, Abdelhafid Berrachedi (2017)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A $(0, 2)$ -graph is a connected graph, where each pair of vertices has either 0 or 2 common neighbours. These graphs constitute a subclass of $(0, λ)$ -graphs introduced by Mulder in 1979. A rectagraph, well known in diagram geometry, is a triangle-free $(0, 2)$ -graph. $(0, 2)$ -graphs include hypercubes, folded cube graphs and some particular graphs such as icosahedral graph, Shrikhande graph, Klein graph, Gewirtz graph, etc. In this paper, we give some local properties of 4-cycles in $(0, λ)$ -graphs and more specifically...

Roughness in $G$ -graphs

Bibi N. Onagh (2020)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

$G$ -graphs are a type of graphs associated to groups, which were proposed by A. Bretto and A. Faisant (2005). In this paper, we first give some theorems regarding $G$ -graphs. Then we introduce the notion of rough $G$ -graphs and investigate some important properties of these graphs.

The order of uniquely partitionable graphs

Izak Broere, Marietjie Frick, Peter Mihók (1997)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let ₁,...,ₙ be properties of graphs. A (₁,...,ₙ)-partition of a graph G is a partition V₁,...,Vₙ of V(G) such that, for each i = 1,...,n, the subgraph of G induced by $V_{i}$ has property $_{i}$ . If a graph G has a unique (₁,...,ₙ)-partition we say it is uniquely (₁,...,ₙ)-partitionable. We establish best lower bounds for the order of uniquely (₁,...,ₙ)-partitionable graphs, for various choices of ₁,...,ₙ.

Radio numbers for generalized prism graphs

Paul Martinez, Juan Ortiz, Maggy Tomova, Cindy Wyels (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A radio labeling is an assignment c:V(G) → N such that every distinct pair of vertices u,v satisfies the inequality d(u,v) + |c(u)-c(v)| ≥ diam(G) + 1. The span of a radio labeling is the maximum value. The radio number of G, rn(G), is the minimum span over all radio labelings of G. Generalized prism graphs, denoted $Z_{n, s}$ , s ≥ 1, n ≥ s, have vertex set (i,j) | i = 1,2 and j = 1,...,n and edge set ((i,j),(i,j ±1)) ∪ ((1,i),(2,i+σ)) | σ = -⌊(s-1)/2⌋...,0,...,⌊s/2⌋. In this paper we determine...

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; $γ_{p r} (K ₂ ☐ G) = 2 γ_{p r} (G)$ ; $γ_{p r} (K ₂ ☐ G) = γ_{p r} (G)$ .

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...

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Formulas for vertex eccentricity and radius for the n-fold tensor product $G = \otimes_{i = 1} ⁿ G_{i}$ of n arbitrary simple graphs $G_{i}$ are derived. The center of G is characterized as the union of n+1 vertex sets of form V₁×V₂×...×Vₙ, with $V_{i} \subseteq V (G_{i})$ .

On the total k-domination number of graphs

Adel P. Kazemi (2012)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let k be a positive integer and let G = (V,E) be a simple graph. The k-tuple domination number $γ_{\times k} (G)$ of G is the minimum cardinality of a k-tuple dominating set S, a set that for every vertex v ∈ V, $| N_{G} [v] \cap S | \geq k$ . Also the total k-domination number $γ_{\times k, t} (G)$ of G is the minimum cardinality of a total k -dominating set S, a set that for every vertex v ∈ V, $| N_{G} (v) \cap S | \geq k$ . The k-transversal number τₖ(H) of a hypergraph H is the minimum size of a subset S ⊆ V(H) such that |S ∩e | ≥ k for every edge e ∈ E(H). We know that for...

Total domination versus paired domination

Oliver Schaudt (2012)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A dominating set of a graph G is a vertex subset that any vertex of G either belongs to or is adjacent to. A total dominating set is a dominating set whose induced subgraph does not contain isolated vertices. The minimal size of a total dominating set, the total domination number, is denoted by γₜ. The maximal size of an inclusionwise minimal total dominating set, the upper total domination number, is denoted by Γₜ. A paired dominating set is a dominating set whose induced subgraph has...

Acyclic reducible bounds for outerplanar graphs

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. $G [V_{i}] \in_{i}$ 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 $u \in V_{i}$ and $v \in V_{j}$ is acyclic. A class R = ₁ ⊙ ₂ ⊙ ... ⊙ ₙ is defined as the set of the graphs having an acyclic (₁, ₂,...,Pₙ)-colouring....
