Reciprocal complementary Wiener numbers of trees, unicyclic graphs and bicyclic graphs

The reciprocal complementary Wiener number of a connected graph G is defined as

where V(G) is the vertex set, d(u,v|G) is the distance between vertices u and v, d is the diameter of G. We determine the trees with the smallest, the second smallest and the third smallest reciprocal complementary Wiener numbers, and the unicyclic and bicyclic graphs with the smallest and the second smallest reciprocal complementary Wiener numbers.     

On the cover time of random walks on graphs

This article deals with random walks on arbitrary graphs. We consider the cover time of finite graphs. That is, we study the expected time needed for a random walk on a finite graph to visit every vertex at least once. We establish an upper bound ofO(n ²) for the expectation of the cover time for regular (or nearly regular) graphs. We prove a lower bound of (n logn) for the expected cover time for trees. We present examples showing all our bounds to be tight.Mike Saks was supported by NSF-DMS87-03541 and by AFOSR-0271. Jeff Kahn was supported by MCS-83-01867 and by AFOSR-0271.     

The maximum number of maximal independent sets in unicyclic connected graphs

In this paper, we determine the maximum number of maximal independent sets in a unicyclic connected graph. We also find a class of graphs achieving this maximum value.     

通过增强型萨格勒布指数对图排序

Recently, Furtula et al. proposed a valuable predictive index in the study of the heat of formation in octanes and heptanes, the augmented Zagreb index(AZI index) of a graph G, which is defined as AZI(G) =∑uv∈E(G)( d_u d_v/d_u + d_v-2)~3,where E(G) is the edge set of G, d u and d v are the degrees of the terminal vertices u and v of edge uv, respectively. In this paper, we obtain the first five largest(resp., the first two smallest) AZI indices of connected graphs with n vertices. Moreover, we determine the trees of order n with the first three smallest AZI indices, the unicyclic graphs of order n with the minimum, the second minimum AZI indices, and the bicyclic graphs of order n with the minimum AZI index, respectively.     

Graceful signed graphs: II. The case of signed cycles with connected negative sections

In our earlier paper [9], generalizing the well known notion of graceful graphs, a (p, m, n)-signed graph S of order p, with m positive edges and n negative edges, is called graceful if there exists an injective function f that assigns to its p vertices integers 0, 1,...,q = m + n such that when to each edge uv of S one assigns the absolute difference |f(u)-f(v)| the set of integers received by the positive edges of S is {1,2,...,m} and the set of integers received by the negative edges of S is {1,2,...,n}. Considering the conjecture therein that all signed cycles Z_k, of admissible length k 3 and signed structures, are graceful, we establish in this paper its truth for all possible signed cycles of lengths 0, 2 or 3 (mod 4) in which the set of negative edges forms a connected subsigraph.     

On s-hamiltonian line graphs of claw-free graphs

For an integer $s\ge 0$, a graph $G$ is $s$-hamiltonian if for any vertex subset $S?V\left(G\right)$ with $\left|S\right|\le s$, $G?S$ is hamiltonian, and $G$ is $s$-hamiltonian connected if for any vertex subset $S?V\left(G\right)$ with $\left|S\right|\le s$, $G?S$ is hamiltonian connected. Thomassen in 1984 conjectured that every 4-connected line graph is hamiltonian (see Thomassen, 1986), and Ku?zel and Xiong in 2004 conjectured that every 4-connected line graph is hamiltonian connected (see Ryjá?ek and Vrána, 2011). In Broersma and Veldman (1987), Broersma and Veldman raised the characterization problem of $s$-hamiltonian line graphs. In Lai and Shao (2013), it is conjectured that for $s\ge 2$, a line graph $L\left(G\right)$ is $s$-hamiltonian if and only if $L\left(G\right)$ is $(s+2)$-connected. In this paper we prove the following.(i) For an integer $s\ge 2$, the line graph $L\left(G\right)$ of a claw-free graph $G$ is $s$-hamiltonian if and only if $L\left(G\right)$ is $(s+2)$-connected.(ii) The line graph $L\left(G\right)$ of a claw-free graph $G$ is 1-hamiltonian connected if and only if $L\left(G\right)$ is 4-connected.     

On distance two graphs of upper bound graphs

For a poset P=(X,≤), the upper bound graph (UB-graph) of P is the graph U=(X,E_U), where uv∈E_U if and only if u≠v and there exists m∈X such that u,v≤m. For a graph G, the distance two graph DS₂(G) is the graph with vertex set V(DS₂(G))=V(G) and u,v∈V(DS₂(G)) are adjacent if and only if d_G(u,v)=2. In this paper, we deal with distance two graphs of upper bound graphs. We obtain a characterization of distance two graphs of split upper bound graphs.     

Strong clique trees,neighborhood trees,and strongly chordal graphs

Maximal complete subgraphs and clique trees are basic to both the theory and applications of chordal graphs. A simple notion of strong clique tree extends this structure to strongly chordal graphs. Replacing maximal complete subgraphs with open or closed vertex neighborhoods discloses new relationships between chordal and strongly chordal graphs and the previously studied families of chordal bipartite graphs, clique graphs of chordal graphs (dually chordal graphs), and incidence graphs of biacyclic hypergraphs. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

On conservative and supermagic graphs

A graph is called supermagic if it admits a labelling of the edges by pairwise different consecutive positive integers such that the sum of the labels of the edges incident with a vertex is independent of the particular vertex. A graph G is called conservative if it admits an orientation and a labelling of the edges by integers {1,…,|E(G)|} such that at each vertex the sum of the labels on the incoming edges is equal to the sum of the labels on the outgoing edges. In this paper we deal with conservative graphs and their connection with the supermagic graphs. We introduce a new method to construct supermagic graphs using conservative graphs. Inter alia we show that the union of some circulant graphs and regular complete multipartite graphs are supermagic.     

On the edge multicoloring of unicyclic graphs

A multicoloring of an edge weighted graph is an assignment of intervals to its edges so that the intervals of adjacent edges do not intersect at interior points and the length of each interval is equal to the weight of the edge. The minimum length of the union of all intervals is called an edge multichromatic number of the graph. The maximum weighted degree of a vertex (i.e., the sum of the weights of all edges incident with it) is an evident lower bound of this number. There are available the examples in which the multichromatic number is one and a half times larger than the lower bound. Also, there is a conjecture that the bound cannot exceeded by a larger factor. Here we prove this conjecture for the class of unicyclic graphs.     

On the Zagreb indices of the line graphs of the subdivision graphs

On cover-structure graphs

Motivated by a problem in communication complexity, we study cover-structure graphs (cs-graphs), defined as intersection graphs of maximal monochromatic rectangles in a matrix. We show that not every graph is a cs-graph. Especially, squares and odd holes are not cs-graphs.It is natural to look at graphs (beautiful graphs) having the property that each induced subgraph is a cs-graph. They form a new class of Berge graphs. We make progress towards their characterization by showing that every square-free bipartite graph is beautiful, and that beautiful line graphs of square-free bipartite graphs are just Path-or-Even-Cycle-of-Cliques graphs.     

SUPER EDGE-CONNECTIVITY OF DE BRUIJN AND KAUTZ UNDIRECTED GRAPHS

The super edge-connectivity of a graph is an important parameter to measure fault-tolerance of interconnection networks. This note shows that the Kautz undirected graph is super edge-connected,and provides a short proof of Lue and Zhang‘s result on super edge-connectivity of the de Bruijn undirected graph.
