Discrepancy games.
Let be a flat surface of genus with cone type singularities. Given a bipartite graph isoradially embedded in , we define discrete analogs of the Dirac operators on . These discrete objects are then shown to converge to the continuous ones, in some appropriate sense. Finally, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions on the pair for these discrete Dirac operators to be Kasteleyn matrices of the graph . As a consequence, if these conditions are met, the partition function of the dimer...
We prove that if G is a graph of order 5k and the minimum degree of G is at least 3k then G contains k disjoint cycles of length 5.
Let n, s and t be three integers with s ≥ 1, t ≥ 0 and n = 3s + 4t. Let G be a graph of order n such that the minimum degree of G is at least (n + s)/2. Then G contains a 2-factor with s + t components such that s of them are triangles and t of them are quadrilaterals.
Les dissimilarités multivoies sont une généralisation naturelle des dissimilarités usuelles deux voies. Dans ce papier, des classes de dissimilarités multivoies sont étudiées, ainsi que des modèles de passage d'un nombre de voies donné à un autre nombre de voies. Une application à la spécification de systèmes classifiants a conduit à une bijection entre une classe de dissimilarités multivoies et une famille de systèmes stratifiés de classifccation.
A set of vertices D of a graph G is a distance 2-dominating set of G if the distance between each vertex u ∊ (V (G) − D) and D is at most two. Let γ2(G) denote the size of a smallest distance 2-dominating set of G. For any permutation π of the vertex set of G, the prism of G with respect to π is the graph πG obtained from G and a copy G′ of G by joining u ∊ V(G) with v′ ∊ V(G′) if and only if v′ = π(u). If γ2(πG) = γ2(G) for any permutation π of V(G), then G is called a universal γ2-fixer. In this...
Motivated by the frequency assignment problem we study the d-distant coloring of the vertices of an infinite plane hexagonal lattice H. Let d be a positive integer. A d-distant coloring of the lattice H is a coloring of the vertices of H such that each pair of vertices distance at most d apart have different colors. The d-distant chromatic number of H, denoted , is the minimum number of colors needed for a d-distant coloring of H. We give the exact value of for any d odd and estimations for any...
For a spanning tree T in a nontrivial connected graph G and for vertices u and v in G, there exists a unique u-v path u = u₀, u₁, u₂,..., uₖ = v in T. A u-v T-path in G is a u- v path u = v₀, v₁,...,vₗ = v in G that is a subsequence of the sequence u = u₀, u₁, u₂,..., uₖ = v. A u-v T-path of minimum length is a u-v T-geodesic in G. The T-distance from u to v in G is the length of a u-v T-geodesic. Let geo(G) and geo(G|T) be the set of geodesics and the set of T-geodesics respectively in G. Necessary...
