Construction for bicritical graphs and k-extendable bipartite graphs

A graph G is said to be bicritical if G-u-v has a perfect matching for every choice of a pair of points u and v. Bicritical graphs play a central role in decomposition theory of elementary graphs with respect to perfect matchings. As Plummer pointed out many times, the structure of bicritical graphs is far from completely understood. This paper presents a concise structure characterization on bicritical graphs in terms of factor-critical graphs and transversals of hypergraphs. A connected graph G with at least 2k+2 points is said to be k-extendable if it contains a matching of k lines and every such matching is contained in a perfect matching. A structure characterization for k-extendable bipartite graphs is given in a recursive way. Furthermore, this paper presents an O(mn) algorithm for determining the extendability of a bipartite graph G, the maximum integer k such that G is k-extendable, where n is the number of points and m is the number of lines in G.     

Optimization problems of the third edge-connectivity of graphs

The third edge-connectivity λ3(G) of a graph G is defined as the minimum cardinality over all sets of edges, if any, whose deletion disconnects G and each component of the resulting graph has at least 3 vertices. An upper bound has been established for λ3(G) whenever λ3(G) is well-defined. This paper first introduces two combinatorial optimization concepts, that is, maximality and superiority, of λ3(G), and then proves the Ore type sufficient conditions for G to be maximally and super third edge-connected. These concepts and results are useful in network reliability analysis.     

关于有限域上一类方程零点个数的估计

By establishing the connection between graph colouring and the solution of some equation systems in finite fields, we obtain some formulas to the number of solutions of some equation systems in finite fields, in terms of chromatic polynomial of a graph.     

E -Theoretic Duality for Higher Rank Graph Algebras

We prove that there is a Poincaré type duality in E-theory between higher rank graph algebras associated with a higher rank graph and its opposite correspondent. We obtain an r-duality, that is the fundamental classes are in E^r. The basic tools are a higher rank Fock space and higher rank Toeplitz algebra which has a more interesting ideal structure than in the rank 1 case. The K-homology fundamental class is given by an r-fold exact sequence whereas the K-theory fundamental class is given by a homomorphism. The E-theoretic products are essentially pull-backs so that the computation is done at the level of exact sequences. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 46L80.     

Halving Steiner 2-designs

A Steiner 2-design S(2,k,v) is said to be halvable if the block set can be partitioned into two isomorphic sets. This is equivalent to an edge-disjoint decomposition of a self-complementary graph G on v vertices into K_ks. The obvious necessary condition of those orders v for which there exists a halvable S(2,k,v) is that v admits the existence of an S(2,k,v) with an even number of blocks. In this paper, we give an asymptotic solution for various block sizes. We prove that for any k?5 or any Mersenne prime k, there is a constant number v₀ such that if v>v₀ and v satisfies the above necessary condition, then there exists a halvable S(2,k,v). We also show that a halvable S(2,2ⁿ,v) exists for over a half of possible orders. Some recursive constructions generating infinitely many new halvable Steiner 2-designs are also presented.     

Even subgraphs of bridgeless graphs and 2-factors of line graphs

By Petersen's theorem, a bridgeless cubic multigraph has a 2-factor. Fleischner generalised this result to bridgeless multigraphs of minimum degree at least three by showing that every such multigraph has a spanning even subgraph. Our main result is that every bridgeless simple graph with minimum degree at least three has a spanning even subgraph in which every component has at least four vertices. We deduce that if G is a simple bridgeless graph with n vertices and minimum degree at least three, then its line graph has a 2-factor with at most max{1,(3n-4)/10} components. This upper bound is best possible.     

The interval function of a connected graph and road systems

Let V be a finite nonempty set. In this paper, a road system on V (as a generalization of the set of all geodesics in a connected graph G with V(G)=V) and an intervaloid function on V (as a generalization of the interval function (in the sense of Mulder) of a connected graph G with V(G)=V) are introduced. A natural bijection of the set of all intervaloid functions on V onto the set of all road systems on V is constructed. This bijection enables to deduce an axiomatic characterization of the interval function of a connected graph G from a characterization of the set of all geodesics in G.
