All Tight Descriptions of 3-Stars in 3-Polytopes with Girth 5

Oleg V. Borodin, Anna O. Ivanova (2017)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Lebesgue (1940) proved that every 3-polytope P5 of girth 5 has a path of three vertices of degree 3. Madaras (2004) refined this by showing that every P5 has a 3-vertex with two 3-neighbors and the third neighbor of degree at most 4. This description of 3-stars in P5s is tight in the sense that no its parameter can be strengthened due to the dodecahedron combined with the existence of a P5 in which every 3-vertex has a 4-neighbor. We give another tight description of 3-stars in P5s:...

5-Stars of Low Weight in Normal Plane Maps with Minimum Degree 5

Oleg V. Borodin, Anna O. Ivanova, Tommy R. Jensen (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

It is known that there are normal plane maps M5 with minimum degree 5 such that the minimum degree-sum w(S5) of 5-stars at 5-vertices is arbitrarily large. In 1940, Lebesgue showed that if an M5 has no 4-stars of cyclic type (5, 6, 6, 5) centered at 5-vertices, then w(S5) ≤ 68. We improve this bound of 68 to 55 and give a construction of a (5, 6, 6, 5)-free M5 with w(S5) = 48

On rainbowness of semiregular polyhedra

Stanislav Jendroľ, Štefan Schrötter (2008)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We introduce the rainbowness of a polyhedron as the minimum number k such that any colouring of vertices of the polyhedron using at least k colours involves a face all vertices of which have different colours. We determine the rainbowness of Platonic solids, prisms, antiprisms and ten Archimedean solids. For the remaining three Archimedean solids this parameter is estimated.
