A new approach to chordal graphs

Ladislav Nebeský (2007)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

By a chordal graph is meant a graph with no induced cycle of length ≥ 4 . By a ternary system is meant an ordered pair ( W , T ) , where W is a finite nonempty set, and T ⊆ W × W × W . Ternary systems satisfying certain axioms (A1)–(A5) are studied in this paper; note that these axioms can be formulated in a language of the first-order logic. For every finite nonempty set W , a bijective mapping from the set of all connected chordal graphs G with V ( G ) = W onto the set of all ternary systems ( W , T ) satisfying the axioms (A1)–(A5) is...

A New Characterization of Unichord-Free Graphs

Terry A. McKee (2015)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Unichord-free graphs are defined as having no cycle with a unique chord. They have appeared in several papers recently and are also characterized by minimal separators always inducing edgeless subgraphs (in contrast to characterizing chordal graphs by minimal separators always inducing complete subgraphs). A new characterization of unichord-free graphs corresponds to a suitable reformulation of the standard simplicial vertex characterization of chordal graphs.

A note on another construction of graphs with 4 n + 6 vertices and cyclic automorphism group of order 4 n

Peteris Daugulis (2017)

Archivum Mathematicum

The problem of finding minimal vertex number of graphs with a given automorphism group is addressed in this article for the case of cyclic groups. This problem was considered earlier by other authors. We give a construction of an undirected graph having 4 n + 6 vertices and automorphism group cyclic of order 4 n , n ≥ 1 . As a special case we get graphs with 2 k + 6 vertices and cyclic automorphism groups of order 2 k . It can revive interest in related problems.

A note on joins of additive hereditary graph properties

Ewa Drgas-Burchardt (2006)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Let L a denote a set of additive hereditary graph properties. It is a known fact that a partially ordered set ( L a , ⊆ ) is a complete distributive lattice. We present results when a join of two additive hereditary graph properties in ( L a , ⊆ ) has a finite or infinite family of minimal forbidden subgraphs.

A note on (k,l)-kernels in B-products of graphs

Iwona Włoch (1996)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

B-products of graphs and their generalizations were introduced in [4]. We determined the parameters k, l of (k,l)-kernels in generalized B-products of graphs. These results are generalizations of theorems from [2].

A note on maximal common subgraphs of the Dirac's family of graphs

Jozef Bucko, Peter Mihók, Jean-François Saclé, Mariusz Woźniak (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Let ⁿ be a given set of unlabeled simple graphs of order n. A maximal common subgraph of the graphs of the set ⁿ is a common subgraph F of order n of each member of ⁿ, that is not properly contained in any larger common subgraph of each member of ⁿ. By well-known Dirac’s Theorem, the Dirac’s family ⁿ of the graphs of order n and minimum degree δ ≥ [n/2] has a maximal common subgraph containing Cₙ. In this note we study the problem of determining all maximal common subgraphs of the Dirac’s family...

A note on maximum independent sets and minimum clique partitions in unit disk graphs and penny graphs: complexity and approximation

Marcia R. Cerioli, Luerbio Faria, Talita O. Ferreira, Fábio Protti (2011)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

A unit disk graph is the intersection graph of a family of unit disks in the plane. If the disks do not overlap, it is also a unit coin graph or penny graph. It is known that finding a maximum independent set in a unit disk graph is a NP-hard problem. In this work we extend this result to penny graphs. Furthermore, we prove that finding a minimum clique partition in a penny graph is also NP-hard, and present two linear-time approximation algorithms for the computation of clique partitions: a 3-approximation...

A Note on Path Domination

Liliana Alcón (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

We study domination between different types of walks connecting two non-adjacent vertices u and v of a graph (shortest paths, induced paths, paths, tolled walks). We succeeded in characterizing those graphs in which every uv-walk of one particular kind dominates every uv-walk of other specific kind. We thereby obtained new characterizations of standard graph classes like chordal, interval and superfragile graphs.

A note on strong and co-strong perfectness of the X-join of graphs

Alina Szelecka, Andrzej Włoch (1996)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Strongly perfect graphs were introduced by C. Berge and P. Duchet in [1]. In [4], [3] the following was studied: the problem of strong perfectness for the Cartesian product, the tensor product, the symmetrical difference of n, n ≥ 2, graphs and for the generalized Cartesian product of graphs. Co-strong perfectness was first studied by G. Ravindra andD. Basavayya [5]. In this paper we discuss strong perfectness and co-strong perfectness for the generalized composition (the lexicographic product)...
