Sufficient conditions on the existence of factors in graphs involving minimum degree

Huicai Jia, Jing Lou (2024)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

For a set ${A, B, C, ...}$ of graphs, an ${A, B, C, ...}$ -factor of a graph $G$ is a spanning subgraph $F$ of $G$ , where each component of $F$ is contained in ${A, B, C, ...}$ . It is very interesting to investigate the existence of factors in a graph with given minimum degree from the prospective of eigenvalues. We first propose a tight sufficient condition in terms of the $Q$ -spectral radius for a graph involving minimum degree to contain a star factor. Moreover, we also present tight sufficient conditions based on the $Q$ -spectral radius...

Remarks on $D$ -integral complete multipartite graphs

Pavel Híc, Milan Pokorný (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A graph is called distance integral (or $D$ -integral) if all eigenvalues of its distance matrix are integers. In their study of $D$ -integral complete multipartite graphs, Yang and Wang (2015) posed two questions on the existence of such graphs. We resolve these questions and present some further results on $D$ -integral complete multipartite graphs. We give the first known distance integral complete multipartite graphs $K_{p_{1}, p_{2}, p_{3}}$ with $p_{1} < p_{2} < p_{3}$ , and $K_{p_{1}, p_{2}, p_{3}, p_{4}}$ with $p_{1} < p_{2} < p_{3} < p_{4}$ , as well as the infinite classes of distance integral...

Generalized connectivity of some total graphs

Yinkui Li, Yaping Mao, Zhao Wang, Zongtian Wei (2021)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We study the generalized $k$ -connectivity $κ_{k} (G)$ as introduced by Hager in 1985, as well as the more recently introduced generalized $k$ -edge-connectivity $λ_{k} (G)$ . We determine the exact value of $κ_{k} (G)$ and $λ_{k} (G)$ for the line graphs and total graphs of trees, unicyclic graphs, and also for complete graphs for the case $k = 3$ .

A note on the independent domination number versus the domination number in bipartite graphs

Shaohui Wang, Bing Wei (2017)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $γ (G)$ and $i (G)$ be the domination number and the independent domination number of $G$ , respectively. Rad and Volkmann posted a conjecture that $i (G) / γ (G) \leq Δ (G) / 2$ for any graph $G$ , where $Δ (G)$ is its maximum degree (see N. J. Rad, L. Volkmann (2013)). In this work, we verify the conjecture for bipartite graphs. Several graph classes attaining the extremal bound and graphs containing odd cycles with the ratio larger than $Δ (G) / 2$ are provided as well.

Edit distance measure for graphs

Tomasz Dzido, Krzysztof Krzywdziński (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

In this paper, we investigate a measure of similarity of graphs similar to the Ramsey number. We present values and bounds for $g (n, l)$ , the biggest number $k$ guaranteeing that there exist $l$ graphs on $n$ vertices, each two having edit distance at least $k$ . By edit distance of two graphs $G$ , $F$ we mean the number of edges needed to be added to or deleted from graph $G$ to obtain graph $F$ . This new extremal number $g (n, l)$ is closely linked to the edit distance of graphs. Using probabilistic methods we show...

On the multiplicity of Laplacian eigenvalues for unicyclic graphs

Fei Wen, Qiongxiang Huang (2022)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ and $U$ a unicyclic graph with the same order. We firstly give a sharp bound for $m_{G} (μ)$ , the multiplicity of a Laplacian eigenvalue $μ$ of $G$ . As a straightforward result, $m_{U} (1) \leq n - 2$ . We then provide two graph operations (i.e., grafting and shifting) on graph $G$ for which the value of $m_{G} (1)$ is nondecreasing. As applications, we get the distribution of $m_{U} (1)$ for unicyclic graphs on $n$ vertices. Moreover, for the two largest possible values of $m_{U} (1) \in {n - 5, n - 3}$ , the corresponding graphs $U$ are...

Characterization by intersection graph of some families of finite nonsimple groups

Hossein Shahsavari, Behrooz Khosravi (2021)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

For a finite group $G$ , $Γ (G)$ , the intersection graph of $G$ , is a simple graph whose vertices are all nontrivial proper subgroups of $G$ and two distinct vertices $H$ and $K$ are adjacent when $H \cap K \neq 1$ . In this paper, we classify all finite nonsimple groups whose intersection graphs have a leaf and also we discuss the characterizability of them using their intersection graphs.

On the bounds of Laplacian eigenvalues of $k$ -connected graphs

Xiaodan Chen, Yaoping Hou (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $μ_{n - 1} (G)$ be the algebraic connectivity, and let $μ_{1} (G)$ be the Laplacian spectral radius of a $k$ -connected graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. In this paper, we prove that $μ_{n - 1} (G) \geq \frac{2 n k^{2}}{(n (n - 1) - 2 m) (n + k - 2) + 2 k^{2}},$ with equality if and only if $G$ is the complete graph $K_{n}$ or $K_{n} - e$ . Moreover, if $G$ is non-regular, then $μ_{1} (G) < 2 Δ - \frac{2 (n Δ - 2 m) k^{2}}{2 (n Δ - 2 m) (n^{2} - 2 n + 2 k) + n k^{2}},$ where $Δ$ stands for the maximum degree of $G$ . Remark that in some cases, these two inequalities improve some previously known results.

A spectral bound for graph irregularity

Felix Goldberg (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The imbalance of an edge $e = {u, v}$ in a graph is defined as $i (e) = | d (u) - d (v) |$ , where $d (\cdot)$ is the vertex degree. The irregularity $I (G)$ of $G$ is then defined as the sum of imbalances over all edges of $G$ . This concept was introduced by Albertson who proved that $I (G) \leq 4 n^{3} / 27$ (where $n = | V (G) |$ ) and obtained stronger bounds for bipartite and triangle-free graphs. Since then a number of additional bounds were given by various authors. In this paper we prove a new upper bound, which improves a bound found by Zhou and Luo in 2008. Our bound involves...

Let be a set of graphs and for a graph G let $α_{} (G)$ and $α *_{} (G)$ denote the maximum order of an induced subgraph of G which does not contain a graph in as a subgraph and which does not contain a graph in as an induced subgraph, respectively. Lower bounds on $α_{} (G)$ and $α *_{} (G)$ are presented.

We show that, given any n and α, any embedding of any sufficiently large complete graph in ℝ³ contains an oriented link with components Q₁, ..., Qₙ such that for every i ≠ j, $| l k (Q_{i}, Q_{j}) | \geq α$ and $| a ₂ (Q_{i}) | \geq α$ , where $a ₂ (Q_{i})$ denotes the second coefficient of the Conway polynomial of $Q_{i}$ .

Emina Milovanović, Serife B. Bozkurt Altindağ, Marjan Matejić, Igor Milovanović (2023)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $G = (V, E)$ , $V = {v_{1}, v_{2}, ..., v_{n}}$ , be a simple connected graph with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges and a sequence of vertex degrees $d_{1} \geq d_{2} \geq \dots \geq d_{n}$ . Denote by $A$ and $D$ the adjacency matrix and diagonal vertex degree matrix of $G$ , respectively. The signless Laplacian of $G$ is defined as $L^{+} = D + A$ and the normalized signless Laplacian matrix as $ℒ^{+} = D^{- 1 / 2} L^{+} D^{- 1 / 2}$ . The normalized signless Laplacian spreads of a connected nonbipartite graph $G$ are defined as $r (G) = γ_{2}^{+} / γ_{n}^{+}$ and $l (G) = γ_{2}^{+} - γ_{n}^{+}$ , where $γ_{1}^{+} \geq γ_{2}^{+} \geq \dots \geq γ_{n}^{+} \geq 0$ are eigenvalues of $ℒ^{+}$ . We establish sharp lower and upper bounds for the normalized signless...
