Partitions of some planar graphs into two linear forests

Piotr Borowiecki, Mariusz Hałuszczak (1997)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

A linear forest is a forest in which every component is a path. It is known that the set of vertices V(G) of any outerplanar graph G can be partitioned into two disjoint subsets V₁,V₂ such that induced subgraphs ⟨V₁⟩ and ⟨V₂⟩ are linear forests (we say G has an (LF, LF)-partition). In this paper, we present an extension of the above result to the class of planar graphs with a given number of internal vertices (i.e., vertices that do not belong to the external face at a certain fixed embedding of...

Path-Neighborhood Graphs

R.C. Laskar, Henry Martyn Mulder (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

A path-neighborhood graph is a connected graph in which every neighborhood induces a path. In the main results the 3-sun-free path-neighborhood graphs are characterized. The 3-sun is obtained from a 6-cycle by adding three chords between the three pairs of vertices at distance 2. A Pk-graph is a path-neighborhood graph in which every neighborhood is a Pk, where Pk is the path on k vertices. The Pk-graphs are characterized for k ≤ 4.

Paths of low weight in planar graphs

Igor Fabrici, Jochen Harant, Stanislav Jendrol' (2008)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

The existence of paths of low degree sum of their vertices in planar graphs is investigated. The main results of the paper are: 1. Every 3-connected simple planar graph G that contains a k-path, a path on k vertices, also contains a k-path P such that for its weight (the sum of degrees of its vertices) in G it holds w G ( P ) : = u V ( P ) d e g G ( u ) ( 3 / 2 ) k ² + ( k ) 2. Every plane triangulation T that contains a k-path also contains a k-path P such that for its weight in T it holds w T ( P ) : = u V ( P ) d e g T ( u ) k ² + 13 k 3. Let G be a 3-connected simple planar graph of circumference...

Plane trivalent trees and their patterns

Charles Delorme (2010)

Open Mathematics

The aim of this paper is to characterize the patterns of successive distances of leaves in plane trivalent trees, and give a very short characterization of their parity pattern. Besides, we count how many trees satisfy some given sequences of patterns.
