The Distance Matching Extension in K1,k-free Graphs with High Local Connectedness

A matching is extendable in a graph G if G has a perfect matching containing it. A distance q matching is a matching such that the distance between any two distinct matching edges is at least q. In this paper, we prove that any distance 2k-3 matching is extendable in a connected and locally(k-1)-connected K₁,_k-free graph of even order. Furthermore, we also prove that any distance q matching M in an r-connected and locally(k-1)-connected K₁,k-free graph of even or...     

Number of Induced Matchings of Graphs

A matching M of a graph G is an induced matching if no two edges in M arejoined by an edge of G.Let iz(G) denote the total number of induced matchings of G,named iz-index.It is well known that the Hosoya index of a graph is the total number of matchings and the Hosoya index of a path can be calculated by the Fibonacci sequence.In this paper,we investigate the iz-index of graphs by using the Fibonacci-Narayana sequence and characterize some types of graphs with minimum and maximum iz-index,respectively.     

INDEPENDENT-SET-DELETABLE FACTOR-CRITICAL POWER GRAPHS

It is said that a graph G is independent-set-deletable factor-critical (in short, ID-factor-critical), if, for every independent set 7 which has the same parity as |V(G)|, G-I has a perfect matching. A graph G is strongly IM-extendable, if for every spanning supergraph H of G, every induced matching of H is included in a perfect matching of H. The k-th power of G, denoted by Gk, is the graph with vertex set V(G) in which two vertices are adjacent if and only if they have distance at most k in G. ID-factor-criticality and IM-extendability of power graphs are discussed in this article. The author shows that, if G is a connected graph, then G3 and T(G) (the total graph of G) are ID-factor-critical, and G4 (when |V(G)| is even) is strongly IM-extendable; if G is 2-connected, then D2 is ID-factor-critical.     

Graphs isomorphic to their maximum matching graphs

The maximum matching graph M（G） of a graph G is a simple graph whose vertices are the maximum matchings of G and where two maximum matchings are adjacent in M（G） if they differ by exactly one edge. In this paper, we prove that if a graph is isomorphic to its maximum matching graph, then every block of the graph is an odd cycle.     

DEGREE CONDITIONS OF INDUCED MATCHING EXTENDABLE GRAPHS

Abstract. A simple graph G is induced matching extendable,shortly IM-extendable,if every in-duced matching of G is included in a perfect matching of G. The degree conditions of IM-extend-able graphs are researched in this paper. The main results are as follows：     

A class of antimagic join graphs

A labeling f of a graph G is a bijection from its edge set E(G) to the set {1, 2, . . . , |E(G)|}, which is antimagic if for any distinct vertices x and y, the sum of the labels on edges incident to x is different from the sum of the labels on edges incident to y. A graph G is antimagic if G has an f which is antimagic. Hartsfield and Ringel conjectured in 1990 that every connected graph other than K 2 is antimagic. In this paper, we show that if G 1 is an n-vertex graph with minimum degree at least r, and G 2 is an m-vertex graph with maximum degree at most 2r-1 (m ≥ n), then G1 ∨ G2 is antimagic.     

A characterization of PM-compact Hamiltonian bipartite graphs

The perfect matching polytope of a graph G is the convex hull of the incidence vectors of all perfect matchings in G. A graph is called perfect matching compact(shortly, PM-compact), if its perfect matching polytope has diameter one. This paper gives a complete characterization of simple PM-compact Hamiltonian bipartite graphs. We first define two families of graphs, called the H2C-bipartite graphs and the H23-bipartite graphs, respectively. Then we show that, for a simple Hamiltonian bipartite graph G with |V(G)| ≥ 6, G is PM-compact if and only if G is K3,3, or G is a spanning Hamiltonian subgraph of either an H2C-bipartite graph or an H23-bipartite graph.     

Induced Matching Number of the Plane Grid Graph

An induced matching M in a graph G is a matching such that V(M) induces a 1-regular subgraph of G. The induced matching number of a graph G, denoted by I M(G), is the maximum number r such that G has an induced matching of r edges. Induced matching number of Pm×Pn is investigated in this paper. The main results are as follows:(1) If at least one of m and n is even, then IM(Pm×Pn=[(mn)/4].(2) If m is odd, then     

3-正则无爪图的导出匹配覆盖(英文)

The induced matching cover number of a graph G without isolated vertices, denoted by imc（G）,is the minimum integer k such that G has k induced matchings {M1,M2,···,Mk}such that,V（M1）∪V（M2）∪···∪V（Mk）covers V（G）.This paper shows that,if G is a 3-regular claw-free graph,then imc（G）∈{2,3}.

树的导出匹配覆盖

The induced matching cover number of a graph G without isolated vertices,denoted by imc(G),is the minimum integer k such that G has k induced matchings M1,M2,…,Mk such that,M1∪M2 ∪…∪Mk covers V(G).This paper shows if G is a nontrivial tree,then imc(G) ∈ {△*0(G),△*0(G) + 1,△*0(G)+2},where △*0(G) = max{d0(u) + d0(v) :u,v ∈ V(G),uv ∈ E(G)}.     

导出匹配问题的NP-完全性以及导出匹配可扩问题的CO-NP-完全性

Almost claw-free graphs

We say that G is almost claw-free if the vertices that are centers of induced claws (K_1,3) in G are independent and their neighborhoods are 2-dominated. Clearly, every claw-free graph is almost claw-free. It is shown that (i) every even connected almost claw-free graph has a perfect matching and (ii) every nontrivial locally connected K_1,4-free almost claw-free graph is fully cycle extendable.     

几乎无爪图的叶子数较少的生成树

A spanning tree with no more than 3 leaves is called a spanning 3-ended tree.In this paper, we prove that if G is a k-connected(k ≥ 2) almost claw-free graph of order n and σ_(k+3)(G) ≥ n + k + 2, then G contains a spanning 3-ended tree, where σk(G) =min{∑_(v∈S)deg(v) : S is an independent set of G with |S| = k}.     

树和单圈图的斜谱矩

给定图$G$,对图$G$的每条边确定一个方向,称为$G$的定向图$G^\sigma$, $G$称为$G^\sigma$的基础图. $G^\sigma$的斜邻接矩阵$S(G^\sigma)$是反对称矩阵,其特征值是0或纯虚数. $S(G^\sigma)$所有特征值的$k$次幂之和称为$G^\sigma$的$k$阶斜谱矩,其中$k$是非负整数.斜谱矩序列可用于对图进行排序.本文主要研究定向树和定向单圈图的斜谱矩,并对这两类图的斜谱矩序列依照字典序进行排序.首先确定了直径为$d$的树作为基础图的所有定向树中,斜谱矩序最大的$2\lfloor\frac{d}{4}\rfloor$个图; 然后确定以围长为$g$的单圈图作为基础图的所有定向单圈图中, 斜谱矩序最大的$2\lfloor\frac{g}{4}\rfloor+1$个图.

证明了,若G是一个p-阶3-连通无爪图,p≠10,11,15,并对G中任意两个不相邻的点u和v,满足|N(u)∪N(v)|≥(p-1)/2,则G是泛圈图.     

双圈图的零度与其匹配数之间的关系

Let G be a graph with n(G) vertices and m(G) be its matching number.The nullity of G,denoted by η(G),is the multiplicity of the eigenvalue zero of adjacency matrix of G.It is well known that if G is a tree,then η(G) = n(G)-2m(G).Guo et al.[Jiming GUO,Weigen YAN,Yeongnan YEH.On the nullity and the matching number of unicyclic graphs.Linear Alg.Appl.,2009,431:1293 1301]proved that if G is a unicyclic graph,then η(G)equals n(G)-2m(G)-1,n(G)-2m(G),or n(G)-2m(G) +2.In this paper,we prove that if G is a bicyclic graph,then η(G) equals n(G)-2m(G),n(G)-2m(G)±1,n(G)-2m(G)±2or n(G)-2m(G) + 4.We also give a characterization of these six types of bicyclic graphs corresponding to each nullity.     

Maximal IM-unextendable graphs

A graph G is maximal IM-unextendable if G is not induced matching extendable and, for every two nonadjacent vertices x and y, G+xy is induced matching extendable. We show in this paper that a graph G is maximal IM-unextendable if and only if G is isomorphic to M_r(K_s(K_n1K_n2K_nt)), where M_r is an induced matching of size r, r1, t=s+2, and each n_i is odd.
