In this paper, we study the largest Laplacian spectral radius of the bipartite graphs with n vertices and k cut edges and the bicyclic bipartite graphs, respectively. Identifying the center of a star K1,k and one vertex of degree n of Km,n, we denote by the resulting graph. We show that the graph (1?k?n-4) is the unique graph with the largest Laplacian spectral radius among the bipartite graphs with n vertices and k cut edges, and (n?7) is the unique graph with the largest Laplacian spectral radius among all the bicyclic bipartite graphs. 相似文献

If G is a connected undirected simple graph on n vertices and n+c-1 edges, then G is called a c-cyclic graph. Specially, G is called a tricyclic graph if c=3. Let Δ(G) be the maximum degree of G. In this paper, we determine the structural characterizations of the c-cyclic graphs, which have the maximum spectral radii (resp. signless Laplacian spectral radii) in the class of c-cyclic graphs on n vertices with fixed maximum degree . Moreover, we prove that the spectral radius of a tricyclic graph G strictly increases with its maximum degree when , and identify the first six largest spectral radii and the corresponding graphs in the class of tricyclic graphs on n vertices. 相似文献

Laplacian coefficients of trees with given number of leaves or vertices of degree two 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
Let G be a simple undirected n-vertex graph with the characteristic polynomial of its Laplacian matrix . It is well known that for trees the Laplacian coefficient cn-2 is equal to the Wiener index of G, while cn-3 is equal to the modified hyper-Wiener index of graph. Using a result of Zhou and Gutman on the relation between the Laplacian coefficients and the matching numbers in subdivided bipartite graphs, we characterize the trees with k leaves (pendent vertices) which simultaneously minimize all Laplacian coefficients. In particular, this extremal balanced starlike tree S(n,k) minimizes the Wiener index, the modified hyper-Wiener index and recently introduced Laplacian-like energy. We prove that graph S(n,n-1-p) has minimal Laplacian coefficients among n-vertex trees with p vertices of degree two. In conclusion, we illustrate on examples of these spectrum-based invariants that the opposite problem of simultaneously maximizing all Laplacian coefficients has no solution, and pose a conjecture on extremal unicyclic graphs with k leaves. 相似文献

An edge of a k-connected graph is said to be k-contractible if its contraction results in a k-connected graph. A k-connected non-complete graph with no k-contractible edge, is called contraction critical k-connected. An edge of a k-connected graph is called trivially noncontractible if its two end vertices have a common neighbor of degree k. Ando [K. Ando, Trivially noncontractible edges in a contraction critically 5-connected graph, Discrete Math. 293 (2005) 61-72] proved that a contraction critical 5-connected graph on n vertices has at least n/2 trivially noncontractible edges. Li [Xiangjun Li, Some results about the contractible edge and the domination number of graphs, Guilin, Guangxi Normal University, 2006 (in Chinese)] improved the lower bound to n+1. In this paper, the bound is improved to the statement that any contraction critical 5-connected graph on n vertices has at least trivially noncontractible edges. 相似文献

For a graph G, denote by fk(G) the smallest number of vertices that must be deleted from G so that the remaining induced subgraph has its maximum degree shared by at least k vertices. It is not difficult to prove that there are graphs for which already , where n is the number of vertices of G. It is conjectured that for every fixed k. We prove this for k=2,3. While the proof for the case k=2 is easy, already the proof for the case k=3 is considerably more difficult. The case k=4 remains open.A related parameter, sk(G), denotes the maximum integer m so that there are k vertex-disjoint subgraphs of G, each with m vertices, and with the same maximum degree. We prove that for every fixed k, sk(G)≥n/k−o(n). The proof relies on probabilistic arguments. 相似文献

A permutation graph is a simple graph associated with a permutation. Let cn be the number of connected permutation graphs on n vertices. Then the sequence {cn} satisfies an interesting recurrence relation such that it provides partitions of n! as . We also see that, if uniformly chosen at random, asymptotically almost all permutation graphs are connected. 相似文献

The Laplacian spread of a graph is defined to be the difference between the largest eigenvalue and the second-smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian matrix of the graph. Bao, Tan and Fan [Y.H. Bao, Y.Y. Tan,Y.Z. Fan, The Laplacian spread of unicyclic graphs, Appl. Math. Lett. 22 (2009) 1011-1015.] characterize the unique unicyclic graph with maximum Laplacian spread among all connected unicyclic graphs of fixed order. In this paper, we characterize the unique quasi-tree graph with maximum Laplacian spread among all quasi-tree graphs in the set Q(n,d) with . 相似文献

In this paper, we study different classes of intersection graphs of maximal hypercubes of median graphs. For a median graph G and k≥0, the intersection graph Qk(G) is defined as the graph whose vertices are maximal hypercubes (by inclusion) in G, and two vertices Hx and Hy in Qk(G) are adjacent whenever the intersection Hx∩Hy contains a subgraph isomorphic to Qk. Characterizations of clique-graphs in terms of these intersection concepts when k>0, are presented. Furthermore, we introduce the so-called maximal 2-intersection graph of maximal hypercubes of a median graph G, denoted , whose vertices are maximal hypercubes of G, and two vertices are adjacent if the intersection of the corresponding hypercubes is not a proper subcube of some intersection of two maximal hypercubes. We show that a graph H is diamond-free if and only if there exists a median graph G such that H is isomorphic to . We also study convergence of median graphs to the one-vertex graph with respect to all these operations. 相似文献

The Estrada index of a graph G is defined as , where λ1,λ2,…,λn are the eigenvalues of G. The Laplacian Estrada index of a graph G is defined as , where μ1,μ2,…,μn are the Laplacian eigenvalues of G. An edge grafting operation on a graph moves a pendent edge between two pendent paths. We study the change of Estrada index of graph under edge grafting operation between two pendent paths at two adjacent vertices. As the application, we give the result on the change of Laplacian Estrada index of bipartite graph under edge grafting operation between two pendent paths at the same vertex. We also determine the unique tree with minimum Laplacian Estrada index among the set of trees with given maximum degree, and the unique trees with maximum Laplacian Estrada indices among the set of trees with given diameter, number of pendent vertices, matching number, independence number and domination number, respectively. 相似文献

Let TTn be a transitive tournament on n vertices. It is known Görlich, Pil?niak, Wo?niak, (2006) [3] that for any acyclic oriented graph of order n and size not greater than , two graphs isomorphic to are arc-disjoint subgraphs of TTn. In this paper, we consider the problem of embedding of acyclic oriented graphs into their complements in transitive tournaments. We show that any acyclic oriented graph of size at most is embeddable into all its complements in TTn. Moreover, this bound is generally the best possible. 相似文献

Suppose that 0<η<1 is given. We call a graph, G, on n vertices an η-Chvátal graph if its degree sequence d1≤d2≤?≤dn satisfies: for k<n/2, dk≤min{k+ηn,n/2} implies dn−k−ηn≥n−k. (Thus for η=0 we get the well-known Chvátal graphs.) An -algorithm is presented which accepts as input an η-Chvátal graph and produces a Hamiltonian cycle in G as an output. This is a significant improvement on the previous best -algorithm for the problem, which finds a Hamiltonian cycle only in Dirac graphs (δ(G)≥n/2 where δ(G) is the minimum degree in G). 相似文献

The energy of a simple graph G, denoted by E(G), is defined as the sum of the absolute values of all eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. Let Cn denote the cycle of order n and the graph obtained from joining two cycles C6 by a path Pn-12 with its two leaves. Let Bn denote the class of all bipartite bicyclic graphs but not the graph Ra,b, which is obtained from joining two cycles Ca and Cb (a,b≥10 and ) by an edge. In [I. Gutman, D. Vidovi?, Quest for molecular graphs with maximal energy: a computer experiment, J. Chem. Inf. Sci. 41(2001) 1002-1005], Gutman and Vidovi? conjectured that the bicyclic graph with maximal energy is , for n=14 and n≥16. In [X. Li, J. Zhang, On bicyclic graphs with maximal energy, Linear Algebra Appl. 427(2007) 87-98], Li and Zhang showed that the conjecture is true for graphs in the class Bn. However, they could not determine which of the two graphs Ra,b and has the maximal value of energy. In [B. Furtula, S. Radenkovi?, I. Gutman, Bicyclic molecular graphs with the greatest energy, J. Serb. Chem. Soc. 73(4)(2008) 431-433], numerical computations up to a+b=50 were reported, supporting the conjecture. So, it is still necessary to have a mathematical proof to this conjecture. This paper is to show that the energy of is larger than that of Ra,b, which proves the conjecture for bipartite bicyclic graphs. For non-bipartite bicyclic graphs, the conjecture is still open. 相似文献

The existence of graph designs for the two nonisomorphic graphs on five vertices and eight edges is determined in the case of index one, with three possible exceptions in total. It is established that for the unique graph with vertex sequence (3, 3, 3, 3, 4), a graph design of order n exists exactly when and n≠16, with the possible exception of n=48. For the unique graph with vertex sequence (2,3,3,4,4), a graph design of order n exists exactly when , with the possible exceptions of n∈{32,48}. 相似文献

An independent set of a graph G is a set of pairwise non-adjacent vertices. Let α(G) denote the cardinality of a maximum independent set and fs(G) for 0≤s≤α(G) denote the number of independent sets of s vertices. The independence polynomial defined first by Gutman and Harary has been the focus of considerable research recently. Wingard bounded the coefficients fs(T) for trees T with n vertices: for s≥2. We generalize this result to bounds for a very large class of graphs, maximal k-degenerate graphs, a class which includes all k-trees. Additionally, we characterize all instances where our bounds are achieved, and determine exactly the independence polynomials of several classes of k-tree related graphs. Our main theorems generalize several related results known before. 相似文献

A set S of vertices in a graph G is said to be an edge-dominating set if every edge in G is incident with a vertex in S. A cycle in G is said to be a dominating cycle if its vertex set is an edge-dominating set. Nash-Williams [Edge-disjoint hamiltonian circuits in graphs with vertices of large valency, Studies in Pure Mathematics, Academic Press, London, 1971, pp. 157-183] has proved that every longest cycle in a 2-connected graph of order n and minimum degree at least is a dominating cycle. In this paper, we prove that for a prescribed positive integer k, under the same minimum degree condition, if n is sufficiently large and if we take k disjoint cycles so that they contain as many vertices as possible, then these cycles form an edge-dominating set. Nash-Williams’ Theorem corresponds to the case of k=1 of this result. 相似文献

The coefficient of fragmentability of a class of graphs measures the proportion of vertices that need to be removed from the graphs in the class in order to leave behind bounded sized components. We have previously given bounds on this parameter for the class of graphs satisfying a given constant bound on maximum degree. In this paper, we give fragmentability bounds for some classes of graphs of bounded average degree, as well as classes of given thickness, the class of k-colourable graphs, and the class of n-dimensional cubes. In order to establish the fragmentability results for bounded average degree, we prove that the proportion of vertices that must be removed from a graph of average degree at most in order to leave behind a planar subgraph (in fact, a series-parallel subgraph) is at most , provided or the graph is connected and . The proof yields an algorithm for finding large induced planar subgraphs and (under certain conditions) a lower bound on the size of the induced planar subgraph it finds. This bound is similar in form to the one we found for a previous algorithm we developed for that problem, but applies to a larger class of graphs. 相似文献

The excess of a graph G is defined as the minimum number of edges that must be deleted from G in order to get a forest. We prove that every graph with excess at most k has chromatic number at most and that this bound is tight. Moreover, we prove that the oriented chromatic number of any graph with excess k is at most k+3, except for graphs having excess 1 and containing a directed cycle on 5 vertices which have oriented chromatic number 5. This bound is tight for k?4. 相似文献
