Geodesic Embeddings and Planar Graphs

Schnyder labelings are known to have close links to order dimension and drawings of planar graphs. It was observed by Ezra Miller that geodesic embeddings of planar graphs are another class of combinatorial or geometric objects closely linked to Schnyder labelings. We aim to contribute to a better understanding of the connections between these objects. In this article we prove • a characterization of 3-connected planar graphs as those graphs admitting rigid geodesic embeddings, • a bijection between Schnyder labelings and rigid geodesic embeddings, • a strong version of the Brightwell–Trotter theorem. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Finite 2‐Geodesic Transitive Graphs of Prime Valency

We classify noncomplete prime valency graphs satisfying the property that their automorphism group is transitive on both the set of arcs and the set of 2‐geodesics. We prove that either Γ is 2‐arc transitive or the valency p satisfies , and for each such prime there is a unique graph with this property: it is a nonbipartite antipodal double cover of the complete graph with automorphism group and diameter 3.     

Intersection Theorems for Infinite Families of Convex Sets in Graphs

We prove several Helly-type theorems for infinite families of geodesically convex sets in infinite graphs. That is, we determine the least cardinal n such that any family of (particular) convex sets in some infinite graph has a nonempty intersection whenever each of its subfamilies of cardinality less than n has a nonempty intersection. We obtain some general compactness theorems, and some particular results for pseudo-modular graphs, strongly dismantlable graphs and ball-Helly graphs.     

The geodetic numbers of graphs and digraphs

For every two vertices u and v in a graph G,a u-v geodesic is a shortest path between u and v.Let I(u,v)denote the set of all vertices lying on a u-v geodesic.For a vertex subset S,let I(S) denote the union of all I(u,v)for u,v∈S.The geodetic number g(G)of a graph G is the minimum cardinality of a set S with I(S)=V(G).For a digraph D,there is analogous terminology for the geodetic number g(D).The geodetic spectrum of a graph G,denoted by S(G),is the set of geodetic numbers of all orientations of graph G.The lower geodetic number is g~-(G)=minS(G)and the upper geodetic number is g~ (G)=maxS(G).The main purpose of this paper is to study the relations among g(G),g~-(G)and g~ (G)for connected graphs G.In addition,a sufficient and necessary condition for the equality of g(G)and g(G×K_2)is presented,which improves a result of Chartrand,Harary and Zhang.

On Domination Number of 4-Regular Graphs

Let G be a simple graph. A subset S V is a dominating set of G, if for any vertex v V – S there exists a vertex u S such that uv E(G). The domination number, denoted by (G), is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set. In this paper we prove that if G is a 4-regular graph with order n, then (G) ⁴/₁₁ n     

Geodesic Distance in Planar Graphs: An Integrable Approach

We discuss the enumeration of planar graphs using bijections with suitably decorated trees, which allow for keeping track of the geodesic distances between faces of the graph. The corresponding generating functions obey non-linear recursion relations on the geodesic distance. These are solved by use of stationary multi-soliton tau-functions of suitable reductions of the KP hierarchy. We obtain a unified formulation of the (multi-) critical continuum limit describing large graphs with marked points at large geodesic distances, and obtain integrable differential equations for the corresponding scaling functions. This provides a continuum formulation of two-dimensional quantum gravity, in terms of the geodesic distance. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary—05C30; Secondary—05A15, 05C05, 05C12, 68R05     

Geodesic $\gamma$-Pre-$E$-Convex Functions on Riemannian Manifolds

In this paper, we generalize geodesic $E$-convex function and define geodesic $\gamma$-pre-$E$-convex and geodesic $\gamma$-$E$-convex functions on Riemannian manifolds. The sufficient condition of equivalence class of geodesic $\gamma$-pre-$E$-convexity and geodesic $\gamma$-$E$-convexity for differentiable function on Riemannian manifolds is studied. We discuss the sufficient condition for $E$-epigraph to be geodesic $E$-convex set. At the end, we establish some optimality results with the aid of geodesic $\gamma$-pre-$E$-convex and geodesic $\gamma$-$E$-convex functions and discuss the mean value inequality for geodesic $\gamma$-pre-$E$-convex function.     

A new family of Geodesic transitive graphs

We present a new family of locally geodesic transitive graphs with arbitrarily large diameter and valencies, containing a particular case to be geodesic transitive. We also prove that it is a unique family in some generalised family of graphs.

On Subgraphs in Distance-Regular Graphs

Terwilliger [15] has given the diameter bound d (s – 1)(k – 1) + 1 for distance-regular graphs with girth 2s and valency k. We show that the only distance-regular graphs with even girth which reach this bound are the hypercubes and the doubled Odd graphs. Also we improve this bound for bipartite distance-regular graphs. Weichsel [17] conjectures that the only distance-regular subgraphs of a hypercube are the even polygons, the hypercubes and the doubled Odd graphs and proves this in the case of girth 4. We show that the only distance-regular subgraphs of a hypercube with girth 6 are the doubled Odd graphs. If the girth is equal to 8, then its valency is at most 12.     

平面图的Alcuin数

广义渡河问题是一类重要的组合优化问题,它是经典的狼-羊-卷心菜游戏的推广。冲突图是一个图,这个图的任意两个点所代表的物品不相容时(例如,狼和羊代表的物品不相容),则在这两个点之间连结一条边。渡河覆盖问题的目的是确定冲突图全部点所代表的物品从河的一岸安全地摆渡到河的对岸时所需船的最小容量,而冲突图的Alcuin数定义这个最小容量。本文讨论了平面图的Alcuin数, 给出了该类图Alcuin数的完全刻画。     

Dominating Sets of Some Graphs Associated to Commutative Rings

Let G = (V, E) be a graph. A set S ? V is a dominating set of G if every vertex in V is either in S or is adjacent to a vertex in S. The domination number γ(G) of G is the minimum cardinality among the dominating sets of G. The main object of this article is to study and characterize the dominating sets of the zero-divisor graph Γ(R) and ideal-based zero-divisor graph Γ _I (R) of a commutative ring R.

Strongly Regular Semi-Cayley Graphs

We consider strongly regular graphs = (V, E) on an even number, say 2n, of vertices which admit an automorphism group G of order n which has two orbits on V. Such graphs will be called strongly regular semi-Cayley graphs. For instance, the Petersen graph, the Hoffman–Singleton graph, and the triangular graphs T(q) with q 5 mod 8 provide examples which cannot be obtained as Cayley graphs. We give a representation of strongly regular semi-Cayley graphs in terms of suitable triples of elements in the group ring Z G. By applying characters of G, this approach allows us to obtain interesting nonexistence results if G is Abelian, in particular, if G is cyclic. For instance, if G is cyclic and n is odd, then all examples must have parameters of the form 2n = 4s ² + 4s + 2, k = 2s ² + s, = s ² – 1, and = s ²; examples are known only for s = 1, 2, and 4 (together with a noncyclic example for s = 3). We also apply our results to obtain new conditions for the existence of strongly regular Cayley graphs on an even number of vertices when the underlying group H has an Abelian normal subgroup of index 2. In particular, we show the nonexistence of nontrivial strongly regular Cayley graphs over dihedral and generalized quaternion groups, as well as over two series of non-Abelian 2-groups. Up to now these have been the only general nonexistence results for strongly regular Cayley graphs over non-Abelian groups; only the first of these cases was previously known.     

覆盖数不超过3的图上渡河问题

1000多年前,英国著名学者Alcuin曾提出一个古老的渡河问题,即狼、羊和卷心菜的渡河问题。2006年,Prisner把该问题推广到任意的冲突图上,考虑了一类情况更一般的渡河运输问题。所谓冲突图是指一个图G=(V,E),这里V代表某些物品的集合,V中的两个点有边连结当且仅当这两个点是冲突的,即在无人监管的情况下不允许留在一起的点。图G=(V,E)的一个可行运输方案是指在保证不发生任何冲突的前提下,把V的点所代表的物品全部摆渡到河对岸的一个运输方案。图G的Alcuin数定义为它存在可行运输方案时所需船的最小容量。本文讨论了覆盖数不超过3的连通图的Alcuin数,给出了该类图Alcuin数的完全刻画。
