On a bound on algebraic connectivity: the case of equality

Stephen J. Kirkland, Neumann, Michael, Bryan L. Shader (1998)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

In a recent paper the authors proposed a lower bound on 1 - λ i , where λ i , λ i 1 , is an eigenvalue of a transition matrix T of an ergodic Markov chain. The bound, which involved the group inverse of I - T , was derived from a more general bound, due to Bauer, Deutsch, and Stoer, on the eigenvalues of a stochastic matrix other than its constant row sum. Here we adapt the bound to give a lower bound on the algebraic connectivity of an undirected graph, but principally consider the case of equality in the bound when...

On connected resolving decompositions in graphs

Varaporn Saenpholphat, Ping Zhang (2004)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

For an ordered k -decomposition 𝒟 = { G 1 , G 2 , , G k } of a connected graph G and an edge e of G , the 𝒟 -code of e is the k -tuple c 𝒟 ( e ) = ( d ( e , G 1 ) , d ( e , G 2 ) , ... , d ( e , G k ) ) , where d ( e , G i ) is the distance from e to G i . A decomposition 𝒟 is resolving if every two distinct edges of G have distinct 𝒟 -codes. The minimum k for which G has a resolving k -decomposition is its decomposition dimension dim d ( G ) . A resolving decomposition 𝒟 of G is connected if each G i is connected for 1 i k . The minimum k for which G has a connected resolving k -decomposition is its connected decomposition...

On distance local connectivity and vertex distance colouring

Přemysl Holub (2007)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

In this paper, we give some sufficient conditions for distance local connectivity of a graph, and a degree condition for local connectivity of a k-connected graph with large diameter. We study some relationships between t-distance chromatic number and distance local connectivity of a graph and give an upper bound on the t-distance chromatic number of a k-connected graph with diameter d.

On k-Path Pancyclic Graphs

Zhenming Bi, Ping Zhang (2015)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

For integers k and n with 2 ≤ k ≤ n − 1, a graph G of order n is k-path pancyclic if every path P of order k in G lies on a cycle of every length from k + 1 to n. Thus a 2-path pancyclic graph is edge-pancyclic. In this paper, we present sufficient conditions for graphs to be k-path pancyclic. For a graph G of order n ≥ 3, we establish sharp lower bounds in terms of n and k for (a) the minimum degree of G, (b) the minimum degree-sum of nonadjacent vertices of G and (c) the size of G such that G...

On L-ideal-based L-zero-divisor graphs

S. Ebrahimi Atani, M. Shajari Kohan (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

In a manner analogous to a commutative ring, the L-ideal-based L-zero-divisor graph of a commutative ring R can be defined as the undirected graph Γ(μ) for some L-ideal μ of R. The basic properties and possible structures of the graph Γ(μ) are studied.

On Longest Cycles in Essentially 4-Connected Planar Graphs

Igor Fabrici, Jochen Harant, Stanislav Jendroľ (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

A planar 3-connected graph G is essentially 4-connected if, for any 3-separator S of G, one component of the graph obtained from G by removing S is a single vertex. Jackson and Wormald proved that an essentially 4-connected planar graph on n vertices contains a cycle C such that [...] . For a cubic essentially 4-connected planar graph G, Grünbaum with Malkevitch, and Zhang showed that G has a cycle on at least ¾ n vertices. In the present paper the result of Jackson and Wormald is improved. Moreover,...
