On integral sum graphs with a saturated vertex

Zhibo Chen (2010)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

As introduced by F. Harary in 1994, a graph G is said to be an i n t e g r a l s u m g r a p h if its vertices can be given a labeling f with distinct integers so that for any two distinct vertices u and v of G , u v is an edge of G if and only if f ( u ) + f ( v ) = f ( w ) for some vertex w in G . We prove that every integral sum graph with a saturated vertex, except the complete graph K 3 , has edge-chromatic number equal to its maximum degree. (A vertex of a graph G is said to be if it is adjacent to every...

Rotation and jump distances between graphs

Gary Chartrand, Heather Gavlas, Héctor Hevia, Mark A. Johnson (1997)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A graph H is obtained from a graph G by an edge rotation if G contains three distinct vertices u,v, and w such that uv ∈ E(G), uw ∉ E(G), and H = G-uv+uw. A graph H is obtained from a graph G by an edge jump if G contains four distinct vertices u,v,w, and x such that uv ∈ E(G), wx∉ E(G), and H = G-uv+wx. If a graph H is obtained from a graph G by a sequence of edge jumps, then G is said to be j-transformed into H. It is shown that for every two graphs G and H of the same order (at least...

Graceful signed graphs

Mukti Acharya, Tarkeshwar Singh (2004)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A ( p , q ) -sigraph S is an ordered pair ( G , s ) where G = ( V , E ) is a ( p , q ) -graph and s is a function which assigns to each edge of G a positive or a negative sign. Let the sets E + and E - consist of m positive and n negative edges of G , respectively, where m + n = q . Given positive integers k and d , S is said to be ( k , d ) -graceful if the vertices of G can be labeled with distinct integers from the set { 0 , 1 , , k + ( q - 1 ) d } such that when each edge u v of G is assigned the product of its sign and the absolute difference of the integers assigned to...

Edge-connectivity of strong products of graphs

Bostjan Bresar, Simon Spacapan (2007)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The strong product G₁ ⊠ G₂ of graphs G₁ and G₂ is the graph with V(G₁)×V(G₂) as the vertex set, and two distinct vertices (x₁,x₂) and (y₁,y₂) are adjacent whenever for each i ∈ 1,2 either x i = y i or x i y i E ( G i ) . In this note we show that for two connected graphs G₁ and G₂ the edge-connectivity λ (G₁ ⊠ G₂) equals minδ(G₁ ⊠ G₂), λ(G₁)(|V(G₂)| + 2|E(G₂)|), λ(G₂)(|V(G₁)| + 2|E(G₁)|). In addition, we fully describe the structure of possible minimum edge cut sets in strong products of graphs.

Labeling the vertex amalgamation of graphs

Ramon M. Figueroa-Centeno, Rikio Ichishima, Francesc A. Muntaner-Batle (2003)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A graph G of size q is graceful if there exists an injective function f:V(G)→ 0,1,...,q such that each edge uv of G is labeled |f(u)-f(v)| and the resulting edge labels are distinct. Also, a (p,q) graph G with q ≥ p is harmonious if there exists an injective function f : V ( G ) Z q such that each edge uv of G is labeled f(u) + f(v) mod q and the resulting edge labels are distinct, whereas G is felicitous if there exists an injective function f : V ( G ) Z q + 1 such that each edge uv of G is labeled f(u) + f(v) mod...

On well-covered graphs of odd girth 7 or greater

Bert Randerath, Preben Dahl Vestergaard (2002)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A maximum independent set of vertices in a graph is a set of pairwise nonadjacent vertices of largest cardinality α. Plummer [14] defined a graph to be well-covered, if every independent set is contained in a maximum independent set of G. One of the most challenging problems in this area, posed in the survey of Plummer [15], is to find a good characterization of well-covered graphs of girth 4. We examine several subclasses of well-covered graphs of girth ≥ 4 with respect to the odd girth...

Join of two graphs admits a nowhere-zero 3 -flow

Saieed Akbari, Maryam Aliakbarpour, Naryam Ghanbari, Emisa Nategh, Hossein Shahmohamad (2014)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let G be a graph, and λ the smallest integer for which G has a nowhere-zero λ -flow, i.e., an integer λ for which G admits a nowhere-zero λ -flow, but it does not admit a ( λ - 1 ) -flow. We denote the minimum flow number of G by Λ ( G ) . In this paper we show that if G and H are two arbitrary graphs and G has no isolated vertex, then Λ ( G H ) 3 except two cases: (i) One of the graphs G and H is K 2 and the other is 1 -regular. (ii) H = K 1 and G is a graph with at least one isolated vertex or a component whose every...

Domination in partitioned graphs

Zsolt Tuza, Preben Dahl Vestergaard (2002)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let V₁, V₂ be a partition of the vertex set in a graph G, and let γ i denote the least number of vertices needed in G to dominate V i . We prove that γ₁+γ₂ ≤ [4/5]|V(G)| for any graph without isolated vertices or edges, and that equality occurs precisely if G consists of disjoint 5-paths and edges between their centers. We also give upper and lower bounds on γ₁+γ₂ for graphs with minimum valency δ, and conjecture that γ₁+γ₂ ≤ [4/(δ+3)]|V(G)| for δ ≤ 5. As δ gets large, however, the largest...
