Distance in stratified graphs

Gary Chartrand, Lisa Hansen, Reza Rashidi, Naveed Sherwani (2000)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A graph $G$ is stratified if its vertex set is partitioned into classes, called strata. If there are $k$ strata, then $G$ is $k$ -stratified. These graphs were introduced to study problems in VLSI design. The strata in a stratified graph are also referred to as color classes. For a color $X$ in a stratified graph $G$ , the $X$ -eccentricity $e_{X} (v)$ of a vertex $v$ of $G$ is the distance between $v$ and an $X$ -colored vertex furthest from $v$ . The minimum $X$ -eccentricity among the vertices of $G$ is the $X$ -radius ${r a d}_{X} G$ of $G$ ...

Signed total domination number of a graph

Bohdan Zelinka (2001)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The signed total domination number of a graph is a certain variant of the domination number. If $v$ is a vertex of a graph $G$ , then $N (v)$ is its oper neighbourhood, i.e. the set of all vertices adjacent to $v$ in $G$ . A mapping $f : V (G) \to {- 1, 1}$ , where $V (G)$ is the vertex set of $G$ , is called a signed total dominating function (STDF) on $G$ , if $\sum_{x \in N (v)} f (x) \geq 1$ for each $v \in V (G)$ . The minimum of values $\sum_{x \in V (G)} f (x)$ , taken over all STDF’s of $G$ , is called the signed total domination number of $G$ and denoted by $γ_{s t} (G)$ . A theorem stating lower bounds for $γ_{s t} (G)$ is...

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...

Wiener index of graphs with fixed number of pendant or cut-vertices

Dinesh Pandey, Kamal Lochan Patra (2022)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The Wiener index of a connected graph is defined as the sum of the distances between all unordered pairs of its vertices. We characterize the graphs which extremize the Wiener index among all graphs on $n$ vertices with $k$ pendant vertices. We also characterize the graph which minimizes the Wiener index over the graphs on $n$ vertices with $s$ cut-vertices.

On the minus domination number of graphs

Hailong Liu, Liang Sun (2004)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $G = (V, E)$ be a simple graph. A $3$ -valued function $f V (G) \to {- 1, 0, 1}$ is said to be a minus dominating function if for every vertex $v \in V$ , $f (N [v]) = \sum_{u \in N [v]} f (u) \geq 1$ , where $N [v]$ is the closed neighborhood of $v$ . The weight of a minus dominating function $f$ on $G$ is $f (V) = \sum_{v \in V} f (v)$ . The minus domination number of a graph $G$ , denoted by $γ^{-} (G)$ , equals the minimum weight of a minus dominating function on $G$ . In this paper, the following two results are obtained. (1) If $G$ is a bipartite graph of order $n$ , then $γ^{-} (G) \geq 4 (\sqrt{n + 1} - 1) - n .$ (2) For any negative integer $k$ and any positive integer...
