On the minus domination number of graphs

Hailong Liu, Liang Sun (2004)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $G = (V, E)$ be a simple graph. A $3$ -valued function $f V (G) \to {- 1, 0, 1}$ is said to be a minus dominating function if for every vertex $v \in V$ , $f (N [v]) = \sum_{u \in N [v]} f (u) \geq 1$ , where $N [v]$ is the closed neighborhood of $v$ . The weight of a minus dominating function $f$ on $G$ is $f (V) = \sum_{v \in V} f (v)$ . The minus domination number of a graph $G$ , denoted by $γ^{-} (G)$ , equals the minimum weight of a minus dominating function on $G$ . In this paper, the following two results are obtained. (1) If $G$ is a bipartite graph of order $n$ , then $γ^{-} (G) \geq 4 (\sqrt{n + 1} - 1) - n .$ (2) For any negative integer $k$ and any positive integer...

A note on periodicity of the 2-distance operator

Bohdan Zelinka (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The paper solves one problem by E. Prisner concerning the 2-distance operator T₂. This is an operator on the class $C_{f}$ of all finite undirected graphs. If G is a graph from $C_{f}$ , then T₂(G) is the graph with the same vertex set as G in which two vertices are adjacent if and only if their distance in G is 2. E. Prisner asks whether the periodicity ≥ 3 is possible for T₂. In this paper an affirmative answer is given. A result concerning the periodicity 2 is added.

Restrained domination in unicyclic graphs

Johannes H. Hattingh, Ernst J. Joubert, Marc Loizeaux, Andrew R. Plummer, Lucas van der Merwe (2009)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let G = (V,E) be a graph. A set S ⊆ V is a restrained dominating set if every vertex in V-S is adjacent to a vertex in S and to a vertex in V-S. The restrained domination number of G, denoted by $γ_{r} (G)$ , is the minimum cardinality of a restrained dominating set of G. A unicyclic graph is a connected graph that contains precisely one cycle. We show that if U is a unicyclic graph of order n, then $γ_{r} (U) \geq ⎡ n / 3 ⎤$ , and provide a characterization of graphs achieving this bound.

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...

Remarks on partially square graphs, hamiltonicity and circumference

Hamamache Kheddouci (2001)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Given a graph G, its partially square graph G* is a graph obtained by adding an edge (u,v) for each pair u, v of vertices of G at distance 2 whenever the vertices u and v have a common neighbor x satisfying the condition $N_{G} (x) \subseteq N_{G} [u] \cup N_{G} [v]$ , where $N_{G} [x] = N_{G} (x) \cup x$ . In the case where G is a claw-free graph, G* is equal to G². We define $σ ° ₜ = m i n \sum_{x \in S} d_{G} (x) : S i s a n i n d e p e n d e n t s e t i n G * a n d | S | = t$ . We give for hamiltonicity and circumference new sufficient conditions depending on σ° and we improve some known results.

The induced paths in a connected graph and a ternary relation determined by them

Ladislav Nebeský (2002)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

By a ternary structure we mean an ordered pair $(X_{0}, T_{0})$ , where $X_{0}$ is a finite nonempty set and $T_{0}$ is a ternary relation on $X_{0}$ . By the underlying graph of a ternary structure $(X_{0}, T_{0})$ we mean the (undirected) graph $G$ with the properties that $X_{0}$ is its vertex set and distinct vertices $u$ and $v$ of $G$ are adjacent if and only if ${x \in X_{0} T_{0} (u, x, v)} \cup {x \in X_{0} T_{0} (v, x, u)} = {u, v} .$ A ternary structure $(X_{0}, T_{0})$ is said to be the B-structure of a connected graph $G$ if $X_{0}$ is the vertex set of $G$ and the following statement holds for all $u, x, y \in X_{0}$ : $T_{0} (x, u, y)$ if and only if $u$ belongs to an...

Distance in stratified graphs

Gary Chartrand, Lisa Hansen, Reza Rashidi, Naveed Sherwani (2000)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A graph $G$ is stratified if its vertex set is partitioned into classes, called strata. If there are $k$ strata, then $G$ is $k$ -stratified. These graphs were introduced to study problems in VLSI design. The strata in a stratified graph are also referred to as color classes. For a color $X$ in a stratified graph $G$ , the $X$ -eccentricity $e_{X} (v)$ of a vertex $v$ of $G$ is the distance between $v$ and an $X$ -colored vertex furthest from $v$ . The minimum $X$ -eccentricity among the vertices of $G$ is the $X$ -radius ${r a d}_{X} G$ of $G$ ...

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 $s_{a d d} (G) \leq k$ for some k ∈ N₀ = 0,1,2,.... Furthermore, we derive characterizations of these classes for k = 1 and k = 2.
