Multilevel Bandwidth and Radio Labelings of Graphs
2008
This paper introduces a generalization of the graph bandwidth parameter: for a graph G and an integer k ≤ diam(G), the k-level bandwidth Bk(G)of G is defined by Bk(G) = minγ max{|γ(x)-γ(y)|-d(x, y)+1 : x, y ∈ V (G), d(x, y) ≤ k}, the minimum being taken among all proper numberings γ of the vertices of G. We present general bounds on Bk(G) along with more specific results for k = 2 and the exact value for k = diam(G). We also exhibit relations between the k-level bandwidth and radio k-labelings of graphs from which we derive a upper bound for the radio number of an arbitrary graph.
Incomplete vertices in the prime graph on conjugacy class sizes of finite groups
2013
Abstract Given a finite group G, consider the prime graph built on the set of conjugacy class sizes of G. Denoting by π 0 the set of vertices of this graph that are not adjacent to at least one other vertex, we show that the Hall π 0 -subgroups of G (which do exist) are metabelian.
An exact method for graph coloring
2006
International audience; We are interested in the graph coloring problem. We propose an exact method based on a linear-decomposition of the graph. The complexity of this method is exponential according to the linearwidth of the entry graph, but linear according to its number of vertices. We present some experiments performed on literature instances, among which COLOR02 library instances. Our method is useful to solve more quickly than other exact algorithms instances with small linearwidth, such as mug graphs. Moreover, our algorithms are the first to our knowledge to solve the COLOR02 instance 4-Inser_3 with an exact method.
Distance graphs and the T-coloring problem
1999
Abstract The T-coloring problem is, given a graph G = (V, E), a set T of nonnegative integers containing 0, and a ‘span’ bound s ⩾ 0, to compute an integer coloring f of the vertices of G such that |f(ν) − f(w)| ∉ T ∀νw ∈ E and max f − min f ⩽ s. This problem arises in the planning of channel assignments for broadcast networks. When restricted to complete graphs, the T-coloring problem boils down to a number problem which can be solved efficiently for many types of sets T. The paper presents results indicating that this is not the case if the set T is arbitrary. To these ends, the class of distance graphs is introduced, which consists of all graphs G : G ≅ G(A) for some (finite) set of posi…
Potential approach in marginalizing Gibbs models
1999
Abstract Given an undirected graph G or hypergraph potential H model for a given set of variables V , we introduce two marginalization operators for obtaining the undirected graph G A or hypergraph H A associated with a given subset A ⊂ V such that the marginal distribution of A factorizes according to G A or H A , respectively. Finally, we illustrate the method by its application to some practical examples. With them we show that potential approach allow defining a finer factorization or performing a more precise conditional independence analysis than undirected graph models. Finally, we explain connections with related works.
Partially Square Graphs, Hamiltonicity and Circumference II
2000
Abstract Given a graph G, its partially square graph G∗ is a graph obtained by adding an edge uv for each pair u, v of vertices of G at distance 2 whenever the vertices u and v have a common neighbor x satisfying the condition NG(x) ⊆ NG[u] ∪ NG[v], where NG[x]= NG(x) ∪ {x}. In case G is a claw-free graph, G∗ is equal to G2, We define σ ∗ t = min{ ∑ x∈ d ∗ G (x): S is an independent set in G ∗ and ∣S∣ = t} , where d ∗ G (x) = ∣{y ∈ V∣ xy ∈ E(G∗)}∣ . We give for hamiltonicity and circumference new sufficient conditions depending on and we improve some known results.
On the Soluble Graph of a Finite Simple Group
2013
The maximal independent sets of the soluble graph of a finite simple group G are studied and their independence number is determined. In particular, it is shown that this graph in many cases has an independent set with three vertices.
P-matrix completions under weak symmetry assumptions
2000
An n-by-n matrix is called a Π-matrix if it is one of (weakly) sign-symmetric, positive, nonnegative P-matrix, (weakly) sign-symmetric, positive, nonnegative P0,1-matrix, or Fischer, or Koteljanskii matrix. In this paper, we are interested in Π-matrix completion problems, that is, when a partial Π-matrix has a Π-matrix completion. Here, we prove that a combinatorially symmetric partial positive P-matrix has a positive P-matrix completion if the graph of its specified entries is an n-cycle. In general, a combinatorially symmetric partial Π-matrix has a Π-matrix completion if the graph of its specified entries is a 1-chordal graph. This condition is also necessary for (weakly) sign-symmetric …
Groups whose prime graph on conjugacy class sizes has few complete vertices
2012
Abstract Let G be a finite group, and let Γ ( G ) denote the prime graph built on the set of conjugacy class sizes of G. In this paper, we consider the situation when Γ ( G ) has “few complete vertices”, and our aim is to investigate the influence of this property on the group structure of G. More precisely, assuming that there exists at most one vertex of Γ ( G ) that is adjacent to all the other vertices, we show that G is solvable with Fitting height at most 3 (the bound being the best possible). Moreover, if Γ ( G ) has no complete vertices, then G is a semidirect product of two abelian groups having coprime orders. Finally, we completely characterize the case when Γ ( G ) is a regular …
A dual of 4-regular graph forG × C2n
2003
Abstract A graph is said h-decomposable if its edge-set is decomposable into edge-disjoint hamiltonian cycles. Jha [3] conjectured that if G is a non-bipartite h-decomposable graph on even number of vertices, then G × K2 is h-decomposable. We use the notion of dual graph defined in [4], we prove that if G = Q1,2 ⊕ C3,4 is a 4-regular non-bipartite h-decomposable graph and the dual graphs relative to Q1,2 and C3,4 are connected then G × K 2 and G × C 2n are h-decomposable (where C 2n is an even cycle).
