Stronger bounds for generalized degrees and Menger path systems

R.J. Faudree, Zs. Tuza (1995)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For positive integers d and m, let $P_{d, m} (G)$ denote the property that between each pair of vertices of the graph G, there are m internally vertex disjoint paths of length at most d. For a positive integer t a graph G satisfies the minimum generalized degree condition δₜ(G) ≥ s if the cardinality of the union of the neighborhoods of each set of t vertices of G is at least s. Generalized degree conditions that ensure that $P_{d, m} (G)$ is satisfied have been investigated. In particular, it has been shown,...

Domination Subdivision Numbers

Teresa W. Haynes, Sandra M. Hedetniemi, Stephen T. Hedetniemi, David P. Jacobs, James Knisely, Lucas C. van der Merwe (2001)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A set S of vertices of a graph G = (V,E) is a dominating set if every vertex of V-S is adjacent to some vertex in S. The domination number γ(G) is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of G, and the domination subdivision number $s d_{γ} (G)$ is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided (each edge in G can be subdivided at most once) in order to increase the domination number. Arumugam conjectured that $1 \leq s d_{γ} (G) \leq 3$ for any graph G. We give a counterexample to this conjecture. On the other hand,...

The vertex detour hull number of a graph

A.P. Santhakumaran, S.V. Ullas Chandran (2012)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For vertices x and y in a connected graph G, the detour distance D(x,y) is the length of a longest x - y path in G. An x - y path of length D(x,y) is an x - y detour. The closed detour interval ID[x,y] consists of x,y, and all vertices lying on some x -y detour of G; while for S ⊆ V(G), $I_{D} [S] = ⋃_{x, y \in S} I_{D} [x, y]$ . A set S of vertices is a detour convex set if $I_{D} [S] = S$ . The detour convex hull ${[S]}_{D}$ is the smallest detour convex set containing S. The detour hull number dh(G) is the minimum cardinality among subsets S of...

Sum labellings of cycle hypergraphs

Hanns-Martin Teichert (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A hypergraph is a sum hypergraph iff there are a finite S ⊆ IN⁺ and d̲, [d̅] ∈ IN⁺ with 1 < d̲ ≤ [d̅] such that is isomorphic to the hypergraph $_{d ̲, [d ̅]} (S) = (V,)$ where V = S and $= e \subseteq S : d ̲ \leq | e | \leq [d ̅] \land \sum_{v \in e} v \in S$ . For an arbitrary hypergraph the sum number σ = σ() is defined to be the minimum number of isolated vertices $y ₁, . . ., y_{σ} \notin V$ such that $\cup y ₁, . . ., y_{σ}$ is a sum hypergraph. Generalizing the graph Cₙ we obtain d-uniform hypergraphs where any d consecutive vertices of Cₙ form an edge. We determine sum numbers and investigate properties of sum labellings...

On short cycles in triangle-free oriented graphs

Yurong Ji, Shufei Wu, Hui Song (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

An orientation of a simple graph is referred to as an oriented graph. Caccetta and Häggkvist conjectured that any digraph on $n$ vertices with minimum outdegree $d$ contains a directed cycle of length at most $⌈ n / d ⌉$ . In this paper, we consider short cycles in oriented graphs without directed triangles. Suppose that $α_{0}$ is the smallest real such that every $n$ -vertex digraph with minimum outdegree at least $α_{0} n$ contains a directed triangle. Let $ϵ < (3 - 2 α_{0}) / (4 - 2 α_{0})$ be a positive real. We show that if $D$ is an oriented graph...

Domination and independence subdivision numbers of graphs

Teresa W. Haynes, Sandra M. Hedetniemi, Stephen T. Hedetniemi (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The domination subdivision number $s d_{γ} (G)$ of a graph is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided (where an edge can be subdivided at most once) in order to increase the domination number. Arumugam showed that this number is at most three for any tree, and conjectured that the upper bound of three holds for any graph. Although we do not prove this interesting conjecture, we give an upper bound for the domination subdivision number for any graph G in terms of the minimum degrees of...

Full domination in graphs

Robert C. Brigham, Gary Chartrand, Ronald D. Dutton, Ping Zhang (2001)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For each vertex v in a graph G, let there be associated a subgraph $H_{v}$ of G. The vertex v is said to dominate $H_{v}$ as well as dominate each vertex and edge of $H_{v}$ . A set S of vertices of G is called a full dominating set if every vertex of G is dominated by some vertex of S, as is every edge of G. The minimum cardinality of a full dominating set of G is its full domination number $γ_{F H} (G)$ . A full dominating set of G of cardinality $γ_{F H} (G)$ is called a $γ_{F H}$ -set of G. We study three types of full domination in...

Turán number of two vertex-disjoint copies of cliques

Caiyun Hu (2024)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The Turán number of a given graph $H$ , denoted by $ex (n, H)$ , is the maximum number of edges in an $H$ -free graph on $n$ vertices. Applying a well-known result of Hajnal and Szemerédi, we determine the Turán number $ex (n, K_{p} \cup K_{q}$ ) of a vertex-disjoint union of cliques $K_{p}$ and $K_{q}$ for all values of $n$ .

On the order of certain close to regular graphs without a matching of given size

Sabine Klinkenberg, Lutz Volkmann (2007)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A graph $G$ is a ${d, d + k}$ -graph, if one vertex has degree $d + k$ and the remaining vertices of $G$ have degree $d$ . In the special case of $k = 0$ , the graph $G$ is $d$ -regular. Let $k, p \geq 0$ and $d, n \geq 1$ be integers such that $n$ and $p$ are of the same parity. If $G$ is a connected ${d, d + k}$ -graph of order $n$ without a matching $M$ of size $2 | M | = n - p$ , then we show in this paper the following: If $d = 2$ , then $k \geq 2 (p + 2)$ and (i) $n \geq k + p + 6$ . If $d \geq 3$ is odd and $t$ an integer with $1 \leq t \leq p + 2$ , then (ii) $n \geq d + k + 1$ for $k \geq d (p + 2)$ , (iii) $n \geq d (p + 3) + 2 t + 1$ for $d (p + 2 - t) + t \leq k \leq d (p + 3 - t) + t - 3$ , (iv) $n \geq d (p + 3) + 2 p + 7$ for $k \leq p$ . If $d \geq 4$ is even, then (v) $n \geq d + k + 2 - η$ for $k \geq d (p + 3) + p + 4 + η$ , (vi) $n \geq d + k + p + 2 - 2 t = d (p + 4) + p + 6$ for $k = d (p + 3) + 4 + 2 t$ and $p \geq 1$ ,...

Bounds for the number of meeting edges in graph partitioning

Qinghou Zeng, Jianfeng Hou (2017)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $G$ be a weighted hypergraph with edges of size at most 2. Bollobás and Scott conjectured that $G$ admits a bipartition such that each vertex class meets edges of total weight at least $(w_{1} - Δ_{1}) / 2 + 2 w_{2} / 3$ , where $w_{i}$ is the total weight of edges of size $i$ and $Δ_{1}$ is the maximum weight of an edge of size 1. In this paper, for positive integer weighted hypergraph $G$ (i.e., multi-hypergraph), we show that there exists a bipartition of $G$ such that each vertex class meets edges of total weight at least $(w_{0} - 1) / 6 + (w_{1} - Δ_{1}) / 3 + 2 w_{2} / 3$ , where...

Fires on trees

Jean Bertoin (2012)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

We consider random dynamics on the edges of a uniform Cayley tree with $n$ vertices, in which edges are either flammable, fireproof, or burnt. Every flammable edge is replaced by a fireproof edge at unit rate, while fires start at smaller rate $n^{- α}$ on each flammable edge, then propagate through the neighboring flammable edges and are only stopped at fireproof edges. A vertex is called fireproof when all its adjacent edges are fireproof. We show that as $n \to \infty$ , the terminal density of fireproof...

On the heterochromatic number of circulant digraphs

Hortensia Galeana-Sánchez, Víctor Neumann-Lara (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The heterochromatic number hc(D) of a digraph D, is the minimum integer k such that for every partition of V(D) into k classes, there is a cyclic triangle whose three vertices belong to different classes. For any two integers s and n with 1 ≤ s ≤ n, let $D_{n, s}$ be the oriented graph such that $V (D_{n, s})$ is the set of integers mod 2n+1 and $A (D_{n, s}) = (i, j) : j - i \in 1, 2, . . ., n ∖ s . .$ In this paper we prove that $h c (D_{n, s}) \leq 5$ for n ≥ 7. The bound is tight since equality holds when s ∈ n,[(2n+1)/3].

Edge-sum distinguishing labeling

Jan Bok, Nikola Jedličková (2021)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We study edge-sum distinguishing labeling, a type of labeling recently introduced by Z. Tuza (2017) in context of labeling games. An ESD labeling of an $n$ -vertex graph $G$ is an injective mapping of integers $1$ to $l$ to its vertices such that for every edge, the sum of the integers on its endpoints is unique. If $l$ equals to $n$ , we speak about a canonical ESD labeling. We focus primarily on structural properties of this labeling and show for several classes of graphs if they have or do not...

Hamiltonicity of cubic Cayley graphs

Henry Glover, Dragan Marušič (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Following a problem posed by Lovász in 1969, it is believed that every finite connected vertex-transitive graph has a Hamilton path. This is shown here to be true for cubic Cayley graphs arising from finite groups having a $(2, s, 3)$ -presentation, that is, for groups $G = 〈 a, b ∣ a^{2} = 1, b^{s} = 1, {(a b)}^{3} = 1, \dots 〉$ generated by an involution $a$ and an element $b$ of order $s \geq 3$ such that their product $a b$ has order $3$ . More precisely, it is shown that the Cayley graph $X = Cay (G, {a, b, b^{- 1}})$ has a Hamilton cycle when $| G |$ (and thus $s$ ) is congruent to 2 modulo 4, and has a...
