Packing colorings of subcubic outerplanar graphs
2018
Given a graph $G$ and a nondecreasing sequence $S=(s_1,\ldots,s_k)$ of positive integers, the mapping $c:V(G)\longrightarrow \{1,\ldots,k\}$ is called an $S$-packing coloring of $G$ if for any two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ in $c^{-1}(i)$, the distance between $x$ and $y$ is greater than $s_i$. The smallest integer $k$ such that there exists a $(1,2,\ldots,k)$-packing coloring of a graph $G$ is called the packing chromatic number of $G$, denoted $\chi_{\rho}(G)$. The question of boundedness of the packing chromatic number in the class of subcubic (planar) graphs was investigated in several earlier papers; recently it was established that the invariant is unbounded in the class of all sub…
Dynamic 2- and 3-connectivity on planar graphs
1992
We study the problem of maintaining the 2-edge-, 2-vertex-, and 3-edge-connected components of a dynamic planar graph subject to edge deletions. The 2-edge-connected components can be maintained in a total of O(n log n) time under any sequence of at most O(n) deletions. This gives O(log n) amortized time per deletion. The 2-vertex- and 3-edge-connected components can be maintained in a total of O(n log2n) time. This gives O(log2n) amortized time per deletion. The space required by all our data structures is O(n).
Neighbor-Distinguishing k-tuple Edge-Colorings of Graphs
2009
AbstractThis paper studies proper k-tuple edge-colorings of graphs that distinguish neighboring vertices by their sets of colors. Minimum numbers of colors for such colorings are determined for cycles, complete graphs and complete bipartite graphs. A variation in which the color sets assigned to edges have to form cyclic intervals is also studied and similar results are given.
On the chromatic number of disk graphs
1998
Colorings of disk graphs arise in the study of the frequency-assignment problem in broadcast networks. Motivated by the observations that the chromatic number of graphs modeling real networks hardly exceeds their clique number, we examine the related properties of the unit disk (UD) graphs and their different generalizations. For all these graphs including the most general class of the double disk (DD) graphs, it is shown that X(G) ≤ c.ω(G) for a constant c. Several coloring algorithms are analyzed for disk graphs, aiming to improve the bounds on X(G). We find that their worst-case performance expressed in the number of used colors is indeed reached in some instances.
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…
Planar maps whose second iterate has a unique fixed point
2007
Let a>0, F: R^2 -> R^2 be a differentiable (not necessarily C^1) map and Spec(F) be the set of (complex) eigenvalues of the derivative F'(p) when p varies in R^2. (a) If Spec(F) is disjoint of the interval [1,1+a[, then Fix(F) has at most one element, where Fix(F) denotes the set of fixed points of F. (b) If Spec(F) is disjoint of the real line R, then Fix(F^2) has at most one element. (c) If F is a C^1 map and, for all p belonging to R^2, the derivative F'(p) is neither a homothety nor has simple real eigenvalues, then Fix(F^2) has at most one element, provided that Spec(F) is disjoint of either (c1) the union of the number 0 with the intervals ]-\infty, -1] and [1,\infty[, or (c2) t…
Two graphs with a common edge
2014
Let G = G1 ∪ G2 be the sum of two simple graphs G1,G2 having a common edge or G = G1 ∪ e1 ∪ e2 ∪ G2 be the sum of two simple disjoint graphs G1,G2 connected by two edges e1 and e2 which form a cycle C4 inside G. We give a method of computing the determinant det A(G) of the adjacency matrix of G by reducing the calculation of the determinant to certain subgraphs of G1 and G2. To show the scope and effectiveness of our method we give some examples
An exact, complete and efficient implementation for computing planar maps of quadric intersection curves
2005
We present the first exact, complete and efficient implementation that computes for a given set P=p1,...,pn of quadric surfaces the planar map induced by all intersection curves p1∩ pi, 2 ≤ i ≤ n, running on the surface of p1. The vertices in this graph are the singular and x-extreme points of the curves as well as all intersection points of pairs of curves. Two vertices are connected by an edge if the underlying points are connected by a branch of one of the curves. Our work is based on and extends ideas developed in [20] and [9].Our implementation is complete in the sense that it can handle all kind of inputs including all degenerate ones where intersection curves have singularities or pa…
On Coloring Unit Disk Graphs
1998
In this paper the coloring problem for unit disk (UD) graphs is considered. UD graphs are the intersection graphs of equal-sized disks in the plane. Colorings of UD graphs arise in the study of channel assignment problems in broadcast networks. Improving on a result of Clark et al. [2] it is shown that the coloring problem for UD graphs remains NP-complete for any fixed number of colors k≥ 3 . Furthermore, a new 3-approximation algorithm for the problem is presented which is based on network flow and matching techniques.
Graphs of stable maps from closed surfaces to the projective plane
2018
Abstract We describe how to attach a weighted graph to each stable map from closed surfaces to projective plane and prove that any weighted graph with non negatively weighted vertices is the graph of some stable map from a closed surface to the projective plane.
