图的连通控制数与无赘数的一个不等式

设G是连通图,γ_C(G)和ir(G)分别表示G的连通控制数和无赘数。孙良于1990年证明了γ_c(G)≤4ir(G)—2,同时提出猜想γ_c(G)≤3ir(G)—2。本文进一步研究γ_c(G)与ir(G)的关系,并证得上述猜想成立。     

关于图的连通Domination

设G是连通图。用r_c(G)、r_c(G)和ir(G)分别表示G的连通Domination数、全Domination数和Irredundance数,本文证明了下列结论: (1) r_c(G)≤3ir(G)-2 (2)r_c(G)≤2r_t(G)-2     

无爪3 -正则图的独立数

如果图G的一个集合X中任两个点不相邻, 则称 X 为独立集合. 如果 N[X]=V(G), 则称X是一个控制集合. i(G)(β(G))分别表示所有极大独立集合的最小(最大)基数. γ(G)(Γ(G))表示所有极小控制集合的最小(最大)基数. 在这篇论文中, 作者证明如下结论: (1) 如果 G ∈R 且G 是n阶3 -正则图, 则 γ(G)= i(G), β(G)=n/3. (2) 每个n阶连通无爪3 -正则图 G, 如果 G(G≠ K₄) 且不含诱导子图K₄-e, 则 β(G) =n/3.     

关于Sumner-Blitch猜想的一个注记

设G是一个图。G的最小度，连通度，控制数，独立控制数和独立数分别用δ，k，γ，i和α表示，图G是3－γ-临界的，如果γ=3，而且G增加任一条边所得的图的控制数为2.Sumner和Blitch猜想：任意连通的3－γ临界图满足i=3，本文证明了如果G是使α＝k 1≤δ的连通3－γ-临界图，那么Sumner-Blitch猜想成立。     

立方图的对控制数

设G=(V,E)是一个简单图, 对任意的顶点子集合 $S\subseteq V$, G[S]表示图G中由S所导出的子图. 如果S是G的一个控制集并且G[S]包含至少一个完备匹配, 则称S是G的一个对控制集. G中对控制集的最少的顶点数称为$G$的对控制数, 记为γ_p(G). 该文证明了对任意有n点的连通立方图G, γ_p(G)≤3n/ 5.     

3-γ-临界图G中关于i(G)=γ(G)的一个充分条件

如果图G满足γ（G）＝k且对图G中任两个相邻的点x,y有γ（G＋xy)=k-1,则称图G为k-γ-临界图,如果图G满足γ（G）＝k且对图G中任何距离为d的两点x,y有γ（G＋xy)=k-1,则称图G为k-(γ,d)－临界图。Sumner和Blitch猜想在3－γ－临界图中有γ（G）＝i(G).Oellermann和Swart猜想3－（γ,2）－临界图中有γ（G）＝i(G),这篇文章中我们提出3－γ－临界图中使γ（G）＝i(G)的一个充分条件。     

匹配数与控制数相等的图的结构性质

我们分别用γ(G)，β(G)和α(G)表示图G的控制数、匹配数和覆盖数，对任意连通图，有γ(G)≤β(G)≤α(G)成立，1998年，Randerath和Volkmann给出了控制数等于覆盖数的图的特征，本文首先证明了匹配数与控制数相等的图其最小度不超过2，而后给出了最小度为2的图的结构性质。     

笛卡尔乘积图的圈点连通度

图G的圈点连通度,记为κ_c(G),是所有圈点割中最小的数目,其中每个圈点割S满足G-S不连通且至少它的两个分支含圈.这篇文章中给出了两个连通图的笛卡尔乘积的圈点连通度:(1)如果G_1≌K_m且G_2≌K_n,则κ_c(G_1×G_2)=min{3m+n-6,m+3n-6},其中m+n≥8,m≥n+2,或n≥m+2,且κ_c(G_1×G_2)=2m+2n-8,其中m+n≥8,m=n,或n=m+1,或m=n+11;(2)如果G_1≌K_m(m≥3)且G_2■K_n,则min{3m+κ(G_2)-4,m+3κ(G_2)-3,2m+2κ(G_2)-4}≤κ_c(G_1×G_2)≤mκ(G2);(3)如果G_1■K_m,K_(1,m-1)且G_2■K_n,K_(1,n-1),其中m≥4,n≥4,则min{3κ(G_1)+κ(G_2)-1,κ(G_1)+3κ(G_2)-1,2_κ(G_1)+2_κ(G_2)-2}≤κ_c(G_1×G_2)≤min{mκ(G_2),nκ(G_1),2m+2n-8}.     

图的三种符号星控制数

引入了图的符号星k限定控制的概念,从而求出了星图和轮图的符号星k控制数.还刻画了满足γ′_(ss)(G)=1/2(2r+s)的图,基中γ′_(ss)(G)表示图G的符号星控制数.最后对图的符号星部分控制的已有结果作了改进.     

图的全控制数和匹配数的可比较性

设tγ(G)为G的全控制数.证明了:(1)对广义θ-图G,tγ(G)≤α(G) 1;(2)对任意k-正则无爪图G,k≥3,有tγ(G)≤α(G).这里α(G)表示G的匹配数.作为结果(2)的推论,对k-正则无爪图(k≥3),证明了Favaron猜想是成立的.即对最小度不小于3的简单图,有tγ(G)≤12 V(G).此外,举例说明了当图的最小度不超过2时,对一般图而言,匹配数与全控制数不可比较.

The Pseudoachromatic Number of a Graph

The pseudoachromatic number of a graph G is the maximum size of a vertex partition of G (where the sets of the partition may or may not be independent) such that, between any two distinct parts, there is at least one edge of G. This parameter is determined for graphs such as cycles, paths, wheels, certain complete multipartite graphs, and for other classes of graphs. Some open problems are raised.AMS Subject Classification (1991): primary 05C75 secondary 05C85     

Weak Hausdorff Gaps and the 𝔭 ≤ t Problem

We find topological characterizations of the pseudointersection number ?? and the tower number t of the real line and we show that ?? < t iff there exists a compact separable T₂ space X of π-weight < ?? that can be covered by < t nowhere dense sets iff there exists a weak Hausdorff gap of size K < t, i. e., a pair ({A : i ≠ k}, {B_J : j ε K}) C [W]^W X [U]W such that A = {A_i : i ε K} is a decreasing tower, B = {B_j : j ε K) is a family of pseudointersections of A, and there is no pseudointersection S of A meeting each member of B in an infinite set.     

Remarks on restrained domination and total restrained domination in graphs

The restrained domination number ^r(G) and the total restrained domination number _t ^r (G) of a graph G were introduced recently by various authors as certain variants of the domination number (G) of (G). A well-known numerical invariant of a graph is the domatic number d(G) which is in a certain way related (and may be called dual) to (G). The paper tries to define analogous concepts also for the restrained domination and the total restrained domination and discusses the sense of such new definitions.This research was supported by Grant MSM 245100303 of the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic.     

The upper traceable number of a graph

For a nontrivial connected graph G of order n and a linear ordering s: v ₁, v ₂, …, v _n of vertices of G, define . The traceable number t(G) of a graph G is t(G) = min{d(s)} and the upper traceable number t ⁺(G) of G is t ⁺(G) = max{d(s)}, where the minimum and maximum are taken over all linear orderings s of vertices of G. We study upper traceable numbers of several classes of graphs and the relationship between the traceable number and upper traceable number of a graph. All connected graphs G for which t ⁺(G) − t(G) = 1 are characterized and a formula for the upper traceable number of a tree is established.

On the relations of graph parameters and its total parameters

In this paper we get some relations between α（G）, α＇（G）, β（G）, β＇（G） and αT（G）, βT（G）. And all bounds in these relations are best possible, where α（G）, α＇（G）,/3（G）, β（G）, αT（G） and βT（G） are the covering number, edge-covering number, independent number, edge-independent number （or matching number）, total covering number and total independent number, respectively.

On the Congruence σ(n)≡1(mod n)

Let k≥2 be an integer,and let σ(n) denote the sum of the positive divisors of an integer n.We call n a quasi-multiperfect number if σ(n)=kn+1.In this paper,we give some necessary properties of them.     

Rainbow Numbers for Cycles with Pendant Edges

A subgraph of an edge-colored graph is called rainbow if all of its edges have different colors. For a graph H and a positive integer n, the anti-Ramsey number f (n, H) is the maximum number of colors in an edge-coloring of K _n with no rainbow copy of H. The rainbow number rb(n, H) is the minimum number of colors such that any edge-coloring of K _n with rb(n, H) number of colors contains a rainbow copy of H. Certainly rb(n, H) = f(n, H) + 1. Anti-Ramsey numbers were introduced by Erdős et al. [4] and studied in numerous papers. We show that for n ≥ k + 1, where C _k ⁺ denotes a cycle C _k with a pendant edge.
