k -Ramsey classes and dimensions of graphs

Jan Kratochvíl (1995)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this note, we introduce the notion of k -Ramsey classes of graphs and we reveal connections to intersection dimensions of graphs.

K3-Worm Colorings of Graphs: Lower Chromatic Number and Gaps in the Chromatic Spectrum

Csilla Bujtás, Zsolt Tuza (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

A K3-WORM coloring of a graph G is an assignment of colors to the vertices in such a way that the vertices of each K3-subgraph of G get precisely two colors. We study graphs G which admit at least one such coloring. We disprove a conjecture of Goddard et al. [Congr. Numer. 219 (2014) 161-173] by proving that for every integer k ≥ 3 there exists a K3-WORM-colorable graph in which the minimum number of colors is exactly k. There also exist K3-WORM colorable graphs which have a K3-WORM coloring with...

Kernels and cycles' subdivisions in arc-colored tournaments

Pietra Delgado-Escalante, Hortensia Galeana-Sánchez (2009)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Let D be a digraph. D is said to be an m-colored digraph if the arcs of D are colored with m colors. A path P in D is called monochromatic if all of its arcs are colored alike. Let D be an m-colored digraph. A set N ⊆ V(D) is said to be a kernel by monochromatic paths of D if it satisfies the following conditions: a) for every pair of different vertices u,v ∈ N there is no monochromatic directed path between them; and b) for every vertex x ∈ V(D)-N there is a vertex n ∈ N such that there is an xn-monochromatic...

Kernels by Monochromatic Paths and Color-Perfect Digraphs

Hortensia Galeana-Śanchez, Rocío Sánchez-López (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

For a digraph D, V (D) and A(D) will denote the sets of vertices and arcs of D respectively. In an arc-colored digraph, a subset K of V(D) is said to be kernel by monochromatic paths (mp-kernel) if (1) for any two different vertices x, y in N there is no monochromatic directed path between them (N is mp-independent) and (2) for each vertex u in V (D) N there exists v ∈ N such that there is a monochromatic directed path from u to v in D (N is mp-absorbent). If every arc in D has a different color,...

Kernels by monochromatic paths and the color-class digraph

Hortensia Galeana-Sánchez (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

An m-colored digraph is a digraph whose arcs are colored with m colors. A directed path is monochromatic when its arcs are colored alike. A set S ⊆ V(D) is a kernel by monochromatic paths whenever the two following conditions hold: 1. For any x,y ∈ S, x ≠ y, there is no monochromatic directed path between them. 2. For each z ∈ (V(D)-S) there exists a zS-monochromatic directed path. In this paper it is introduced the concept of color-class...

Kernels in edge coloured line digraph

H. Galeana-Sánchez, L. Pastrana Ramírez (1998)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

We call the digraph D an m-coloured digraph if the arcs of D are coloured with m colours. A directed path (or a directed cycle) is called monochromatic if all of its arcs are coloured alike. A set N ⊆ V(D) is said to be a kernel by monochromatic paths if it satisfies the two following conditions (i) for every pair of different vertices u, v ∈ N there is no monochromatic directed path between them and (ii) for every vertex x ∈ V(D)-N there is a vertex y ∈ N such that there is an xy-monochromatic...

Kernels in monochromatic path digraphs

Hortensia Galeana-Sánchez, Laura Pastrana Ramírez, Hugo Alberto Rincón Mejía (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

We call the digraph D an m-coloured digraph if its arcs are coloured with m colours. A directed path (or a directed cycle) is called monochromatic if all of its arcs are coloured alike. Let D be an m-coloured digraph. A set N ⊆ V(D) is said to be a kernel by monochromatic paths if it satisfies the following two conditions: (i) for every pair of different vertices u,v ∈ N there is no monochromatic directed path between them and (ii) for each vertex x ∈ (V(D)-N) there...

Kernels in the closure of coloured digraphs

Hortensia Galeana-Sánchez, José de Jesús García-Ruvalcaba (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Let D be a digraph with V(D) and A(D) the sets of vertices and arcs of D, respectively. A kernel of D is a set I ⊂ V(D) such that no arc of D joins two vertices of I and for each x ∈ V(D)∖I there is a vertex y ∈ I such that (x,y) ∈ A(D). A digraph is kernel-perfect if every non-empty induced subdigraph of D has a kernel. If D is edge coloured, we define the closure ξ(D) of D the multidigraph with V(ξ(D)) = V(D) and A ( ξ ( D ) ) = i ( u , v ) w i t h c o l o u r i t h e r e e x i s t s a m o n o c h r o m a t i c p a t h o f c o l o u r i f r o m t h e v e r t e x u t o t h e v e r t e x v c o n t a i n e d i n D .

k-independence stable graphs upon edge removal

Mustapha Chellali, Teresa W. Haynes, Lutz Volkmann (2010)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Let k be a positive integer and G = (V(G),E(G)) a graph. A subset S of V(G) is a k-independent set of G if the subgraph induced by the vertices of S has maximum degree at most k-1. The maximum cardinality of a k-independent set of G is the k-independence number βₖ(G). A graph G is called β¯ₖ-stable if βₖ(G-e) = βₖ(G) for every edge e of E(G). First we give a necessary and sufficient condition for β¯ₖ-stable graphs. Then we establish four equivalent conditions for β¯ₖ-stable trees.
