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...

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...

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...

Intrinsic linking and knotting are arbitrarily complex

Erica Flapan, Blake Mellor, Ramin Naimi (2008)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

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 ) | α and | a ( Q i ) | α , where a ( Q i ) denotes the second coefficient of the Conway polynomial of Q i .

Note on a conjecture for the sum of signless Laplacian eigenvalues

Xiaodan Chen, Guoliang Hao, Dequan Jin, Jingjian Li (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

For a simple graph G on n vertices and an integer k with 1 k n , denote by 𝒮 k + ( G ) the sum of k largest signless Laplacian eigenvalues of G . It was conjectured that 𝒮 k + ( G ) e ( G ) + k + 1 2 , where e ( G ) is the number of edges of G . This conjecture has been proved to be true for all graphs when k { 1 , 2 , n - 1 , n } , and for trees, unicyclic graphs, bicyclic graphs and regular graphs (for all k ). In this note, this conjecture is proved to be true for all graphs when k = n - 2 , and for some new classes of graphs.

On 𝓕-independence in graphs

Frank Göring, Jochen Harant, Dieter Rautenbach, Ingo Schiermeyer (2009)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

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.

Persistency in the Traveling Salesman Problem on Halin graphs

Vladimír Lacko (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) on Halin graphs with three types of cost functions: sum, bottleneck and balanced and with arbitrary real edge costs we compute in polynomial time the persistency partition E A l l , E S o m e , E N o n e of the edge set E, where: E A l l = e ∈ E, e belongs to all optimum solutions, E N o n e = e ∈ E, e does not belong to any optimum solution and E S o m e = e ∈ E, e belongs to some but not to all optimum solutions.

On distinguishing and distinguishing chromatic numbers of hypercubes

Werner Klöckl (2008)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The distinguishing number D(G) of a graph G is the least integer d such that G has a labeling with d colors that is not preserved by any nontrivial automorphism. The restriction to proper labelings leads to the definition of the distinguishing chromatic number χ D ( G ) of G. Extending these concepts to infinite graphs we prove that D ( Q ) = 2 and χ D ( Q ) = 3 , where Q denotes the hypercube of countable dimension. We also show that χ D ( Q ) = 4 , thereby completing the investigation of finite hypercubes with respect to χ D . Our...

Note on improper coloring of 1 -planar graphs

Yanan Chu, Lei Sun, Jun Yue (2019)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A graph G = ( V , E ) is called improperly ( d 1 , , d k ) -colorable if the vertex set V can be partitioned into subsets V 1 , , V k such that the graph G [ V i ] induced by the vertices of V i has maximum degree at most d i for all 1 i k . In this paper, we mainly study the improper coloring of 1 -planar graphs and show that 1 -planar graphs with girth at least 7 are ( 2 , 0 , 0 , 0 ) -colorable.

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 ) 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.

Edge-colouring of graphs and hereditary graph properties

Samantha Dorfling, Tomáš Vetrík (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Edge-colourings of graphs have been studied for decades. We study edge-colourings with respect to hereditary graph properties. For a graph G , a hereditary graph property 𝒫 and l 1 we define χ 𝒫 , l ' ( G ) to be the minimum number of colours needed to properly colour the edges of G , such that any subgraph of G induced by edges coloured by (at most) l colours is in 𝒫 . We present a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of χ 𝒫 , l ' ( G ) . We focus on edge-colourings of graphs with respect to the hereditary...

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 G ) = 2 γ p r ( G ) ; γ p r ( K G ) = γ p r ( G ) .

Embedding products of graphs into Euclidean spaces

Mikhail Skopenkov (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

For any collection of graphs G , . . . , G N we find the minimal dimension d such that the product G × . . . × G N is embeddable into d (see Theorem 1 below). In particular, we prove that (K₅)ⁿ and ( K 3 , 3 ) are not embeddable into 2 n , where K₅ and K 3 , 3 are the Kuratowski graphs. This is a solution of a problem of Menger from 1929. The idea of the proof is a reduction to a problem from so-called Ramsey link theory: we show that any embedding L k O S 2 n - 1 , where O is a vertex of (K₅)ⁿ, has a pair of linked (n-1)-spheres.

Nearly complete graphs decomposable into large induced matchings and their applications

Noga Alon, Ankur Moitra, Benjamin Sudakov (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We describe two constructions of (very) dense graphs which are edge disjoint unions of large induced matchings. The first construction exhibits graphs on N vertices with ( N 2 ) - o ( N 2 ) edges, which can be decomposed into pairwise disjoint induced matchings, each of size N 1 - o ( 1 ) . The second construction provides a covering of all edges of the complete graph K N by two graphs, each being the edge disjoint union of at most N 2 - δ induced matchings, where δ > 0 , 076 . This disproves (in a strong form) a conjecture of Meshulam,...

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 ) 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 ) { n - 5 , n - 3 } , the corresponding graphs U are...
