When a line graph associated to annihilating-ideal graph of a lattice is planar or projective

Atossa Parsapour, Khadijeh Ahmad Javaheri (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let ( L , , ) be a finite lattice with a least element 0. 𝔸 G ( L ) is an annihilating-ideal graph of L in which the vertex set is the set of all nontrivial ideals of L , and two distinct vertices I and J are adjacent if and only if I J = 0 . We completely characterize all finite lattices L whose line graph associated to an annihilating-ideal graph, denoted by 𝔏 ( 𝔸 G ( L ) ) , is a planar or projective graph.

When does the inverse have the same sign pattern as the transpose?

Carolyn A. Eschenbach, Frank J. Hall, Deborah L. Harrell, Zhongshan Li (1999)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

By a sign pattern (matrix) we mean an array whose entries are from the set { + , - , 0 } . The sign patterns A for which every real matrix with sign pattern A has the property that its inverse has sign pattern A T are characterized. Sign patterns A for which some real matrix with sign pattern A has that property are investigated. Some fundamental results as well as constructions concerning such sign pattern matrices are provided. The relation between these sign patterns and the sign patterns of orthogonal matrices...

When is an Incomplete 3 × n Latin Rectangle Completable?

Reinhardt Euler, Paweł Oleksik (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

We use the concept of an availability matrix, introduced in Euler [7], to describe the family of all minimal incomplete 3 × n latin rectangles that are not completable. We also present a complete description of minimal incomplete such latin squares of order 4.

When is the orbit algebra of a group an integral domain ? Proof of a conjecture of P.J. Cameron

Maurice Pouzet (2008)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Cameron introduced the orbit algebra of a permutation group and conjectured that this algebra is an integral domain if and only if the group has no finite orbit. We prove that this conjecture holds and in fact that the age algebra of a relational structure R is an integral domain if and only if R is age-inexhaustible. We deduce these results from a combinatorial lemma asserting that if a product of two non-zero elements of a set algebra is zero then there is a finite common tranversal of their...

Wiener and vertex PI indices of the strong product of graphs

K. Pattabiraman, P. Paulraja (2012)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

The Wiener index of a connected graph G, denoted by W(G), is defined as ½ u , v V ( G ) d G ( u , v ) . Similarly, the hyper-Wiener index of a connected graph G, denoted by WW(G), is defined as ½ W ( G ) + ¼ u , v V ( G ) d ² G ( u , v ) . The vertex Padmakar-Ivan (vertex PI) index of a graph G is the sum over all edges uv of G of the number of vertices which are not equidistant from u and v. In this paper, the exact formulae for Wiener, hyper-Wiener and vertex PI indices of the strong product G K m , m , . . . , m r - 1 , where K m , m , . . . , m r - 1 is the complete multipartite graph with partite sets of sizes...

Wiener index of generalized stars and their quadratic line graphs

Andrey A. Dobrynin, Leonid S. Mel'nikov (2006)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

The Wiener index, W, is the sum of distances between all pairs of vertices in a graph G. The quadratic line graph is defined as L(L(G)), where L(G) is the line graph of G. A generalized star S is a tree consisting of Δ ≥ 3 paths with the unique common endvertex. A relation between the Wiener index of S and of its quadratic graph is presented. It is shown that generalized stars having the property W(S) = W(L(L(S)) exist only for 4 ≤ Δ ≤ 6. Infinite families of generalized stars with this property...
