The k-Rainbow Bondage Number of a Digraph

Jafar Amjadi, Negar Mohammadi, Seyed Mahmoud Sheikholeslami, Lutz Volkmann (2015)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let D = (V,A) be a finite and simple digraph. A k-rainbow dominating function (kRDF) of a digraph D is a function f from the vertex set V to the set of all subsets of the set {1, 2, . . . , k} such that for any vertex v ∈ V with f(v) = Ø the condition ∪u∈N−(v) f(u) = {1, 2, . . . , k} is fulfilled, where N−(v) is the set of in-neighbors of v. The weight of a kRDF f is the value w(f) = ∑v∈V |f(v)|. The k-rainbow domination number of a digraph D, denoted by γrk(D), is the minimum weight...

Niche Hypergraphs

Christian Garske, Martin Sonntag, Hanns-Martin Teichert (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

If D = (V,A) is a digraph, its niche hypergraph NH(D) = (V, E) has the edge set ℇ = {e ⊆ V | |e| ≥ 2 ∧ ∃ v ∈ V : e = N−D(v) ∨ e = N+D(v)}. Niche hypergraphs generalize the well-known niche graphs (see [11]) and are closely related to competition hypergraphs (see [40]) as well as double competition hypergraphs (see [33]). We present several properties of niche hypergraphs of acyclic digraphs.

Extremum degree sets of irregular oriented graphs and pseudodigraphs

Zyta Dziechcińska-Halamoda, Zofia Majcher, Jerzy Michael, Zdzisław Skupień (2006)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A digraph in which any two vertices have distinct degree pairs is called irregular. Sets of degree pairs for all irregular oriented graphs (also loopless digraphs and pseudodigraphs) with minimum and maximum size are determined. Moreover, a method of constructing corresponding irregular realizations of those sets is given.

Degree sequences of digraphs with highly irregular property

Zofia Majcher, Jerzy Michael (1998)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A digraph such that for each its vertex, vertices of the out-neighbourhood have different in-degrees and vertices of the in-neighbourhood have different out-degrees, will be called an HI-digraph. In this paper, we give a characterization of sequences of pairs of out- and in-degrees of HI-digraphs.

Kernels by Monochromatic Paths and Color-Perfect Digraphs

Hortensia Galeana-Śanchez, Rocío Sánchez-López (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For a digraph D, V (D) and A(D) will denote the sets of vertices and arcs of D respectively. In an arc-colored digraph, a subset K of V(D) is said to be kernel by monochromatic paths (mp-kernel) if (1) for any two different vertices x, y in N there is no monochromatic directed path between them (N is mp-independent) and (2) for each vertex u in V (D) N there exists v ∈ N such that there is a monochromatic directed path from u to v in D (N is mp-absorbent). If every arc in D has a different...

Competition hypergraphs of digraphs with certain properties I. Strong connectedness

Martin Sonntag, Hanns-Martin Teichert (2008)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

If D = (V,A) is a digraph, its competition hypergraph 𝓒𝓗(D) has the vertex set V and e ⊆ V is an edge of 𝓒𝓗(D) iff |e| ≥ 2 and there is a vertex v ∈ V, such that e = {w ∈ V|(w,v) ∈ A}. We tackle the problem to minimize the number of strong components in D without changing the competition hypergraph 𝓒𝓗(D). The results are closely related to the corresponding investigations for competition graphs in Fraughnaugh et al. [3].

Rainbow Connectivity of Cacti and of Some Infinite Digraphs

Jesús Alva-Samos, Juan José Montellano-Ballesteros (2017)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

An arc-coloured digraph D = (V,A) is said to be rainbow connected if for every pair {u, v} ⊆ V there is a directed uv-path all whose arcs have different colours and a directed vu-path all whose arcs have different colours. The minimum number of colours required to make the digraph D rainbow connected is called the rainbow connection number of D, denoted rc⃗ (D). A cactus is a digraph where each arc belongs to exactly one directed cycle. In this paper we give sharp upper and lower bounds...

For given nonnegative integers k,s an upper bound on the minimum number of vertices of a strongly connected digraph with exactly k kernels and s solutions is presented.

On graphs all of whose {C₃,T₃}-free arc colorations are kernel-perfect

Hortensia Galeana-Sánchez, José de Jesús García-Ruvalcaba (2001)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A digraph D is called a kernel-perfect digraph or KP-digraph when every induced subdigraph of D has a kernel. We call the digraph D an m-coloured digraph if the arcs of D are coloured with m distinct colours. A path P is monochromatic in D if all of its arcs are coloured alike in D. The closure of D, denoted by ζ(D), is the m-coloured digraph defined as follows: V( ζ(D)) = V(D), and A( ζ(D)) = ∪_{i} {(u,v) with colour i: there exists a monochromatic...

Sharp Upper Bounds on the Signless Laplacian Spectral Radius of Strongly Connected Digraphs

Weige Xi, Ligong Wang (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let G = (V (G),E(G)) be a simple strongly connected digraph and q(G) be the signless Laplacian spectral radius of G. For any vertex vi ∈ V (G), let d+i denote the outdegree of vi, m+i denote the average 2-outdegree of vi, and N+i denote the set of out-neighbors of vi. In this paper, we prove that: (1) (1) q(G) = d+1 +d+2 , (d+1 ≠ d+2) if and only if G is a star digraph [...] ,where d+1, d+2 are the maximum and the second maximum outdegree, respectively [...] is the digraph on n vertices...

Dichromatic number, circulant tournaments and Zykov sums of digraphs

Víctor Neumann-Lara (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The dichromatic number dc(D) of a digraph D is the smallest number of colours needed to colour the vertices of D so that no monochromatic directed cycle is created. In this paper the problem of computing the dichromatic number of a Zykov-sum of digraphs over a digraph D is reduced to that of computing a multicovering number of an hypergraph H₁(D) associated to D in a natural way. This result allows us to construct an infinite family of pairwise non isomorphic vertex-critical k-dichromatic...
