不含某些子图的k连通图中的k可收缩边

最近Ando等证明了在一个$k$($k\geq 5$ 是一个整数) 连通图 $G$ 中,如果 $\delta(G)\geq k+1$, 并且 $G$ 中既不含 $K^{-}_{5}$,也不含 $5K_{1}+P_{3}$, 则$G$ 中含有一条 $k$ 可收缩边.对此进行了推广,证明了在一个$k$连通图$G$中,如果 $\delta(G)\geq k+1$,并且 $G$ 中既不含$K_{2}+(\lfloor\frac{k-1}{2}\rfloor K_{1}\cup P_{3})$,也不含 $tK_{1}+P_{3}$ ($k,t$都是整数,且$t\geq 3$),则当 $k\geq 4t-7$ 时, $G$ 中含有一条 $k$ 可收缩边.     

6连通图中的可收缩边

Kriesell(2001年)猜想：如果κ连通图中任意两个相邻顶点的度的和至少是2[5κ/4]-1则图中有κ-可收缩边．本文证明每一个收缩临界6连通图中有两个相邻的度为6的顶点，由此推出该猜想对κ=6成立。

本文所讨论的图均为无向、有限简单图。文中没有指明的记号、术语见[3]。图G的欧拉生成子图是一条经过G的所有顶点的闭迹,以下简称S-闭迹。     

3-连通3-正则图生成树外的可去边

G是3-连通图，e是G中的一条边．若G-e是3-连通图的一个剖分，则称e是3-连通图的可去边．否则，e是G中不可去边．本给出3-连通3-正则图中生成树外可去边的分布情况及数目．     

广义乘积图的3限制边连通性

广义乘积图的概念在1984年由Bermond等人提出,Balbuena等人在2007年提出并证明了广义乘积图的边连通度和限制边连通度的上下界.继前人的工作,继续讨论证明了这类图的3限制边连通度的上下界.     

3连通图的可去边数

设 e是 3连通图 G的一条边 ,如果 G- e是某个 3连通图的剖分 ,则称 e是 G的可去边 .本文给出了 3连通图的可去边数依赖于极大半轮的下界以及达到下界的极图 .     

恰有k条非基本边的极小3连通图

设G是简单3连通图．G\e(删除边e)和G/e(收缩边e)都不是简单3连通图,则e称为G的基本边．对于3连通图中的非基本边．Tutte证明了：唯一没有非基本边的简单3连通图是轮．Oxley和Wu确定了至多有3条非基本边的所有极小3连通图以及恰有4条非基本的极小3连通图．Reid与Wu确定了至多有5条非基本边的极小3连通图．在本文中,我们在极小3连通图中定义了三种运算,然后通过轮利用这些运算的逆运算给出恰有k(k■2)条非基本边的极小3连通图的一种构造方法．     

点可迁图的限制边连通性

3限制边割是连通图的一个边割, 它将此图分离成阶不小于3的连通分支. 图G的最小3限制边割所含的边数称为此图的3限制边连通度, 记作λ\-3(G). 它以图G的3阶连通点导出 子图的余边界的最小基数ξ_3(G)为上界. 如果λ_3(G)=ξ_3(G), 则称图G是极大3限制边连通的 . 已知在某种程度上,3限制边连通度较大的网络有较好的可靠性. 作者在文中证明: 如果k正则连通点可迁图的 围长至少是5, 那么它是是极大3限制边连通的.     

若干完全四部图的可区别正常边染色

给出了几类完全四部图的可区别正常边色数,讨论了当m,n,p,q分别满足不同的条件时,完全四部图中有两个最大度点相邻及没有最大度点相邻时的情况,且在这两种情况下分别有结果:X_a(K_(m,n,p,p))=X'_s(K_(m,n,p,p))和X'_a(K_(m,n,p,q))相似文献   

点可迁图中的正则因子

设图G是一个K-正则连通点可迁图.如果G不是极大限制性边连通的,那么G含有一个(k-1)-因子,它的所有分支都同构于同一个阶价于k和2k-3之间的点可迁图.此结果在某种程度上加强了Watkins的相应命题:如果k正则点可迁图G不是k连通的,那么G有一个因子,它的每一个分支都同构于同一个点可迁图.     

Removable Edges in Longest Cycles of 4-Connected Graphs

Let G be a 4-connected graph. For an edge e of G, we do the following operations on G: first, delete the edge e from G, resulting the graph G–e; second, for all vertices x of degree 3 in G–e, delete x from G–e and then completely connect the 3 neighbors of x by a triangle. If multiple edges occur, we use single edges to replace them. The final resultant graph is denoted by Ge. If Ge is 4-connected, then e is called a removable edge of G. In this paper we obtain some results on removable edges in a longest cycle of a 4-connected graph G. We also show that for a 4-connected graph G of minimum degree at least 5 or girth at least 4, any edge of G is removable or contractible.Acknowledgment.

Edges not contained in triangles and the number of contractible edges in a 4-connected graph

Let G be a 4-connected graph, and let E_c(G) denote the set of 4-contractible edges of G and let denote the set of those edges of G which are not contained in a triangle. Under this notation, we show that if , then we have .     

Nonseparating Induced Cycles Consisting of Contractible Edges in k-Connected Graphs

It is proved that if G is a k-connected graph which does not contain K₄⁻, then G has an induced cycle C such that G – V(C) is (k − 2)-connected and either every edge of C is k-contractible or C is a triangle. This theorem is a generalization of some known theorems.     

5连通图中的可去边

An edge e of a k-connected graph G is said to be a removable edge if G O e is still k-connected, where G e denotes the graph obtained from G by deleting e to get G - e, and for any end vertex of e with degree k - 1 in G- e, say x, delete x, and then add edges between any pair of non-adjacent vertices in NG-e （x）. The existence of removable edges of k-connected graphs and some properties of 3-connected and 4-connected graphs have been investigated [1, 11, 14, 15]. In the present paper, we investigate some properties of 5-connected graphs and study the distribution of removable edges on a cycle and a spanning tree in a 5- connected graph. Based on the properties, we proved that for a 5-connected graph G of order at least 10, if the edge-vertex-atom of G contains at least three vertices, then G has at least （3│G│ ＋ 2）/2 removable edges.

Augmenting the Edge‐Connectivity of a Hypergraph by Adding a Multipartite Graph

Given a hypergraph, a partition of its vertex set, and a nonnegative integer k, find a minimum number of graph edges to be added between different members of the partition in order to make the hypergraph k‐edge‐connected. This problem is a common generalization of the following two problems: edge‐connectivity augmentation of graphs with partition constraints (J. Bang‐Jensen, H. Gabow, T. Jordán, Z. Szigeti, SIAM J Discrete Math 12(2) (1999), 160–207) and edge‐connectivity augmentation of hypergraphs by adding graph edges (J. Bang‐Jensen, B. Jackson, Math Program 84(3) (1999), 467–481). We give a min–max theorem for this problem, which implies the corresponding results on the above‐mentioned problems, and our proof yields a polynomial algorithm to find the desired set of edges.     

Vertices of Degree 5 in a Contraction Critically 5-connected Graph

An edge of a k-connected graph is said to be k-contractible if the contraction of the edge results in a k-connected graph. A k-connected graph with no k-contractible edge is said to be contraction critically k-connected. We prove that a contraction critically 5-connected graph on n vertices has at least n/5 vertices of degree 5. We also show that, for a graph G and an integer k greater than 4, there exists a contraction critically k-connected graph which has G as its induced subgraph.
