Certain new M-matrices and their properties with applications

Ratnakaram N. Mohan, Sanpei Kageyama, Moon H. Lee, G. Yang (2008)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

The Mₙ-matrix was defined by Mohan [21] who has shown a method of constructing (1,-1)-matrices and studied some of their properties. The (1,-1)-matrices were constructed and studied by Cohn [6], Ehrlich [9], Ehrlich and Zeller [10], and Wang [34]. But in this paper, while giving some resemblances of this matrix with a Hadamard matrix, and by naming it as an M-matrix, we show how to construct partially balanced incomplete block designs and some regular graphs by it. Two types of these M-matrices...

Characterization by intersection graph of some families of finite nonsimple groups

Hossein Shahsavari, Behrooz Khosravi (2021)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

For a finite group G , Γ ( G ) , the intersection graph of G , is a simple graph whose vertices are all nontrivial proper subgroups of G and two distinct vertices H and K are adjacent when H K 1 . In this paper, we classify all finite nonsimple groups whose intersection graphs have a leaf and also we discuss the characterizability of them using their intersection graphs.

Characterization of 2 -minimally nonouterplanar join graphs

D. G. Akka, J. K. Bano (2001)

Mathematica Bohemica

In this paper, we present characterizations of pairs of graphs whose join graphs are 2-minimally nonouterplanar. In addition, we present a characterization of pairs of graphs whose join graphs are 2-minimally nonouterplanar in terms of forbidden subgraphs.

Characterization of block graphs with equal 2-domination number and domination number plus one

Adriana Hansberg, Lutz Volkmann (2007)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Let G be a simple graph, and let p be a positive integer. A subset D ⊆ V(G) is a p-dominating set of the graph G, if every vertex v ∈ V(G)-D is adjacent with at least p vertices of D. The p-domination number γₚ(G) is the minimum cardinality among the p-dominating sets of G. Note that the 1-domination number γ₁(G) is the usual domination number γ(G). If G is a nontrivial connected block graph, then we show that γ₂(G) ≥ γ(G)+1, and we characterize all connected block graphs with...

Characterization of Cubic Graphs G with ir t (G) = Ir t (G) = 2

Changiz Eslahchi, Shahab Haghi, Nader Jafari (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

A subset S of vertices in a graph G is called a total irredundant set if, for each vertex v in G, v or one of its neighbors has no neighbor in S −{v}. The total irredundance number, ir(G), is the minimum cardinality of a maximal total irredundant set of G, while the upper total irredundance number, IR(G), is the maximum cardinality of a such set. In this paper we characterize all cubic graphs G with irt(G) = IRt(G) = 2

Characterization of Line-Consistent Signed Graphs

Daniel C. Slilaty, Thomas Zaslavsky (2015)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

The line graph of a graph with signed edges carries vertex signs. A vertex-signed graph is consistent if every circle (cycle, circuit) has positive vertex-sign product. Acharya, Acharya, and Sinha recently characterized line-consistent signed graphs, i.e., edge-signed graphs whose line graphs, with the naturally induced vertex signature, are consistent. Their proof applies Hoede’s relatively difficult characterization of consistent vertex-signed graphs. We give a simple proof that does not depend...
