平面图和系列平行图的无圈边染色

图$G$的正常边染色称为无圈的, 如果图$G$中不含2-色圈, 图$G$的无圈边色数用$a''(G)$表示, 是使图$G$存在正常无圈边染色所需要的最少颜色数. Alon等人猜想: 对简单图$G$, 有$a''(G)\leq{\Delta(G)+2}$. 设图$G$是围长为$g(G)$的平面图, 本文证明了: 如果$g(G)\geq3$, 则$a''(G)\leq\max\{2\Delta(G)-2,\Delta(G)+22\}$; 如果 $g(G)\geq5$, 则$a''(G)\leq{\Delta(G)+2}$; 如果$g(G)\geq7$, 则$a''(G)\leq{\Delta(G)+1}$; 如果$g(G)\geq16$并且$\Delta(G)\geq3$, 则$a''(G)=\Delta(G)$; 对系列平行图$G$, 有$a''(G)\leq{\Delta(G)+1}$.     

双向2 重迹与图的最大亏格

设G为连通图且L是G的一条双向2 重迹. 作者引入G的一个新参数, 称之为G的反射数,并用ε(G)表示. 反射数ε(G)由如下式子给出:ε(G)=min〖DD(X〗L〖DD)〗ε(G, L), 这里ε(G, L)是G的关于L的反射数,且“min”取遍G的所有双向2 重迹L然后, 对于3 正则图G, 作者证明了G的反射数ε(G)与G的最大亏格γ\-M(G)密切相关,具体地, ε(G)=2γ\-M(G)-β(G), 其中β(G)是G的圈秩数. 同时, 作者给出一个与ε(G)的值有关的G的特征结构. 这些可视为Thomassen C的有关结果的进一步补充.

高度正则图的全着色

A Proof of the Molecular Conjecture

We prove the Molecular Conjecture posed by Tay and Whiteley. This implies that a graph G can be realized as an infinitesimally rigid panel-hinge framework in ℝ ^d by mapping each vertex to a rigid panel and each edge to a hinge if and only if (((d+1) || 2)-1)G\bigl({d+1 \choose 2}-1\bigr)G contains ((d+1) || 2){d+1\choose2} edge-disjoint spanning trees, where (((d+1) || 2)-1)G\bigl({d+1 \choose2}-1\bigr)G is the graph obtained from G by replacing each edge by (((d+1) || 2)-1)\bigl({d+1\choose2}-1\bigr) parallel edges.

Chromatic Enumeration for Rooted Outerplanar Maps Liu Yanfiei

Let G(m, s, t; \lambda)be the number of ways of \lambda-coloring all the rooted nonseparable outerplanar maps which are simple and have the edge number m, the valency s of the root-face, and the valency t of the root-vertex. The chromatic enumerating, function $g(x,y,z;\lambda)=\sum\limits_{m\geq 1,s\geq 2,t\geq 2}{G(m,s,t;\lambda)x^my^sz^t$ is determined. Meanwhile, a number of explicit formulae for enumerating this kindof maps in general case and in bipartite ease are provided.     

The minimum number of triangles covering the edges of a graph

Suppose that a connected graph G has n vertices and m edges, and each edge is contained in some triangle of G. Bounds are established here on the minimum number t_min(G) of triangles that cover the edges of G. We prove that ?(n - 1)/2? ? t_min(G) with equality attained only by 3-cactii and by strongly related graphs. We obtain sharp upper bounds: if G is not a 4-clique, then. The triangle cover number t_min(G) is also bounded above by Γ(G) = m - n + c, the cyclomatic number of a graph G of order n with m edges and c connected components. Here we give a combinatorial proof for t_min(G) ? Γ(G) and characterize the family of all extremal graphs satisfying equality.     

Routing open shop and flow shop scheduling problems

We consider a generalization of the classical open shop and flow shop scheduling problems where the jobs are located at the vertices of an undirected graph and the machines, initially located at the same vertex, have to travel along the graph to process the jobs. The objective is to minimize the makespan. In the tour-version the makespan means the time by which each machine has processed all jobs and returned to the initial location. While in the path-version the makespan represents the maximum completion time of the jobs. We present improved approximation algorithms for various cases of the open shop problem on a general graph, and the tour-version of the two-machine flow shop problem on a tree. Also, we prove that both versions of the latter problem are NP-hard, which answers an open question posed in the literature.     

On Vizing’s bound for the chromatic index of a multigraph

Two of the basic results on edge coloring are Vizing’s Theorem [V.G. Vizing, On an estimate of the chromatic class of a p-graph, Diskret. Analiz. 3 (1964) 25-30 (in Russian); V.G. Vizing, The chromatic class of a multigraph, Kibernetika (Kiev) 3 (1965) 29-39 (in Russian). English translation in Cybernetics 1 32-41], which states that the chromatic index χ^′(G) of a (multi)graph G with maximum degree Δ(G) and maximum multiplicity μ(G) satisfies Δ(G)≤χ^′(G)≤Δ(G)+μ(G), and Holyer’s Theorem [I. Holyer, The NP-completeness of edge-colouring, SIAM J. Comput. 10 (1981) 718-720], which states that the problem of determining the chromatic index of even a simple graph is NP-hard. Hence, a good characterization of those graphs for which Vizing’s upper bound is attained seems to be unlikely. On the other hand, Vizing noticed in the first two above-cited references that the upper bound cannot be attained if Δ(G)=2μ(G)+1≥5. In this paper we discuss the problem: For which values Δ,μ does there exist a graph G satisfying Δ(G)=Δ, μ(G)=μ, and χ^′(G)=Δ+μ.     

Note on the Pair-crossing Number and the Odd-crossing Number

The crossing number of a graph G is the minimum possible number of edge-crossings in a drawing of G, the pair-crossing number is the minimum possible number of crossing pairs of edges in a drawing of G, and the odd-crossing number is the minimum number of pairs of edges that cross an odd number of times. Clearly, . We construct graphs with . This improves the bound of Pelsmajer, Schaefer and Štefankovič. Our construction also answers an old question of Tutte. Slightly improving the bound of Valtr, we also show that if the pair-crossing number of G is k, then its crossing number is at most O(k ²/log ² k). G.
