Sufficient degree conditions for the existence of properly edge‐colored cycles and paths in edge‐colored graphs, multigraphs and random graphs are investigated. In particular, we prove that an edge‐colored multigraph of order n on at least three colors and with minimum colored degree greater than or equal to ?(n+1)/2? has properly edge‐colored cycles of all possible lengths, including hamiltonian cycles. Longest properly edge‐colored paths and hamiltonian paths between given vertices are considered as well. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 64: 63–86, 2010 相似文献

An edge‐colored graph H is properly colored if no two adjacent edges of H have the same color. In 1997, J. Bang‐Jensen and G. Gutin conjectured that an edge‐colored complete graph G has a properly colored Hamilton path if and only if G has a spanning subgraph consisting of a properly colored path C0 and a (possibly empty) collection of properly colored cycles C1,C2,…, Cd such that provided . We prove this conjecture. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 53: 333–346, 2006 相似文献

A cycle in an edge‐colored graph is said to be rainbow if no two of its edges have the same color. For a complete, infinite, edge‐colored graph G, define Then ??(G) is a monoid with respect to the operation n°m=n+ m?2, and thus there is a least positive integer π(G), the period of ??(G), such that ??(G) contains the arithmetic progression {N+ kπ(G)|k?0} for some sufficiently large N. Given that n∈??(G), what can be said about π(G)? Alexeev showed that π(G)=1 when n?3 is odd, and conjectured that π(G) always divides 4. We prove Alexeev's conjecture: Let p(n)=1 when n is odd, p(n)=2 when n is divisible by four, and p(n)=4 otherwise. If 2<n∈??(G) then π(G) is a divisor of p(n). Moreover, ??(G) contains the arithmetic progression {N+ kp(n)|k?0} for some N=O(n2). The key observations are: If 2<n=2k∈??(G) then 3n?8∈??(G). If 16≠n=4k∈??(G) then 3n?10∈??(G). The main result cannot be improved since for every k>0 there are G, H such that 4k∈??(G), π(G)=2, and 4k+ 2∈??(H), π(H)=4. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 相似文献

We introduce in this paper the notion of the chromatic number of an oriented graph G (that is of an antisymmetric directed graph) defined as the minimum order of an oriented graph H such that G admits a homomorphism to H. We study the chromatic number of oriented k-trees and of oriented graphs with bounded degree. We show that there exist oriented k-trees with chromatic number at least 2k+1 - 1 and that every oriented k-tree has chromatic number at most (k + 1) × 2k. For 2-trees and 3-trees we decrease these upper bounds respectively to 7 and 16 and show that these new bounds are tight. As a particular case, we obtain that oriented outerplanar graphs have chromatic number at most 7 and that this bound is tight too. We then show that every oriented graph with maximum degree k has chromatic number at most (2k - 1) × 22k-2. For oriented graphs with maximum degree 2 we decrease this bound to 5 and show that this new bound is tight. For oriented graphs with maximum degree 3 we decrease this bound to 16 and conjecture that there exists no such connected graph with chromatic number greater than 7. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

A retract of a graph Γ is an induced subgraph Ψ of Γ such that there exists a homomorphism from Γ to Ψ whose restriction to Ψ is the identity map. A graph is a core if it has no nontrivial retracts. In general, the minimal retracts of a graph are cores and are unique up to isomorphism; they are called the core of the graph. A graph Γ is G‐symmetric if G is a subgroup of the automorphism group of Γ that is transitive on the vertex set and also transitive on the set of ordered pairs of adjacent vertices. If in addition the vertex set of Γ admits a nontrivial partition that is preserved by G, then Γ is an imprimitive G‐symmetric graph. In this paper cores of imprimitive symmetric graphs Γ of order a product of two distinct primes are studied. In many cases the core of Γ is determined completely. In other cases it is proved that either Γ is a core or its core is isomorphic to one of two graphs, and conditions on when each of these possibilities occurs is given. 相似文献

If is a class of oriented graphs (directed graphs without opposite arcs), then an oriented graph is a homomorphism bound for if there is a homomorphism from each graph in to H. We find some necessary conditions for a graph to be a homomorphism bound for the class of oriented planar graphs and prove that such a graph must have maximum degree at least 16; thus there exists an oriented planar graph with oriented chromatic number at least 17. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Let X be a vertex‐transitive graph, that is, the automorphism group Aut(X) of X is transitive on the vertex set of X. The graph X is said to be symmetric if Aut(X) is transitive on the arc set of X. suppose that Aut(X) has two orbits of the same length on the arc set of X. Then X is said to be half‐arc‐transitive or half‐edge‐transitive if Aut(X) has one or two orbits on the edge set of X, respectively. Stabilizers of symmetric and half‐arc‐transitive graphs have been investigated by many authors. For example, see Tutte [Canad J Math 11 (1959), 621–624] and Conder and Maru?i? [J Combin Theory Ser B 88 (2003), 67–76]. It is trivial to construct connected tetravalent symmetric graphs with arbitrarily large stabilizers, and by Maru?i? [Discrete Math 299 (2005), 180–193], connected tetravalent half‐arc‐transitive graphs can have arbitrarily large stabilizers. In this article, we show that connected tetravalent half‐edge‐transitive graphs can also have arbitrarily large stabilizers. A Cayley graph Cay(G, S) on a group G is said to be normal if the right regular representation R(G) of G is normal in Aut(Cay(G, S)). There are only a few known examples of connected tetravalent non‐normal Cayley graphs on non‐abelian simple groups. In this article, we give a sufficient condition for non‐normal Cayley graphs and by using the condition, infinitely many connected tetravalent non‐normal Cayley graphs are constructed. As an application, all connected tetravalent non‐normal Cayley graphs on the alternating group A6 are determined. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 相似文献

For a given linear program (LP) a permutation of its variables that sends feasible points to feasible points and preserves the objective function value of each of its feasible points is a symmetry of the LP. The set of all symmetries of an LP, denoted by , is the symmetry group of the LP. Margot (2010) described a method for computing a subgroup of the symmetry group of an LP. This method computes when the LP has only non-redundant inequalities and its feasible set satisfies no equality constraints. However, when the feasible set of the LP satisfies equality constraints this method finds only a subgroup of and can miss symmetries. We develop a method for finding the symmetry group of a feasible LP whose feasible set satisfies equality constraints. We apply this method to find and exploit the previously unexploited symmetries of an orthogonal array defining integer linear program (ILP) within the branch-and-bound (B&B) with isomorphism pruning algorithm (Margot, 2007). Our method reduced the running time for finding all OD-equivalence classes of OA and OA by factors of and compared to the fastest known method (Bulutoglu and Ryan, 2018). These were the two bottleneck cases that could not have been solved until the B&B with isomorphism pruning algorithm was applied. Another key finding of this paper is that converting inequalities to equalities by introducing slack variables and exploiting the symmetry group of the resulting ILP’s LP relaxation within the B&B with isomorphism pruning algorithm can reduce the computation time by several orders of magnitude when enumerating a set of all non-isomorphic solutions of an ILP. 相似文献

An edge‐face coloring of a plane graph with edge set E and face set F is a coloring of the elements of E∪F so that adjacent or incident elements receive different colors. Borodin [Discrete Math 128(1–3):21–33, 1994] proved that every plane graph of maximum degree Δ?10 can be edge‐face colored with Δ + 1 colors. We extend Borodin's result to the case where Δ = 9. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 66:332‐346, 2011 相似文献

An edge of a 5‐connected graph is said to be contractible if the contraction of the edge results in a 5‐connected graph. Let x be a vertex of a 5‐connected graph. We prove that if there are no contractible edges whose distance from x is two or less, then either there are two triangles with x in common each of which has a distinct degree five vertex other than x, or there is a specified structure called a K4?‐configuration with center x. As a corollary, we show that if a 5‐connected graph on n vertices has no contractible edges, then it has 2n/5 vertices of degree 5. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 60: 99–129, 2009 相似文献

Let be a plane graph with the sets of vertices, edges, and faces V, E, and F, respectively. If one can color all elements in using k colors so that any two adjacent or incident elements receive distinct colors, then G is said to be entirely k‐colorable. Kronk and Mitchem [Discrete Math 5 (1973) 253‐260] conjectured that every plane graph with maximum degree Δ is entirely ‐colorable. This conjecture has now been settled in Wang and Zhu (J Combin Theory Ser B 101 (2011) 490–501), where the authors asked: is every simple plane graph entirely ‐colorable? In this article, we prove that every simple plane graph with is entirely ‐colorable, and conjecture that every simple plane graph, except the tetrahedron, is entirely ‐colorable. 相似文献

In this paper we introduce some general necessary conditions for the existence of graph homomorphisms, which hold in both directed and undirected cases. Our method is a combination of Diaconis and Saloff–Coste comparison technique for Markov chains and a generalization of Haemers interlacing theorem. As some applications, we obtain a necessary condition for the spanning subgraph problem, which also provides a generalization of a theorem of Mohar (1992) as a necessary condition for Hamiltonicity. In particular, in the case that the range is a Cayley graph or an edge‐transitive graph, we obtain theorems with a corollary about the existence of homomorphisms to cycles. This, specially, provides a proof of the fact that the Coxeter graph is a core. Also, we obtain some information about the cores of vertex‐transitive graphs. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

We study generalizations of the “contraction‐deletion” relation of the Tutte polynomial, and other similar simple operations, to other graph parameters. The question can be set in the framework of graph algebras introduced by Freedman at al [Reflection positivity, rank connectivity, and homomorphisms of graphs, J. Amer. Math. Soc. 20 (2007), 37–51.] Graph algebras are defined by a graph parameter, and they were introduced in order to study and characterize homomorphism functions. We prove that for homomorphism functions, these graph algebras have special elements called “contractors” and “connectors”. This gives a new characterization of homomorphism functions. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 60: 11–30, 2009 相似文献

A plane graph G is edge-face k-colorable if its edges and faces can be colored with k colors such that any two adjacent or incident elements receive different colors. It is known that every plane graph G of maximum degree Δ ≥ 8 is edge-face (Δ + 1)-colorable. The condition Δ ≥ 8 is improved to Δ ≥ 7 in this paper. 相似文献
