关于半无爪图点泛圈性的两个结果

给出了半无爪图(quasi-claw-freegraph)点泛圈性方面的两个结果,作为推论,可得到D.Oberly,D.Sumner,L.Clark等人的相关结果.     

2-连通半无爪图的最长圈

A graph G is called quasi-claw-free if it satisfies the property:d(x,y)=2 there exists a vertex u∈N(x)∩N(y)such that N[u]■N[x]∪N[y].In this paper,we show that every 2-connected quasi-claw-free graph of order n with G■F contains a cycle of length at least min{3δ+2,n},where F is a family of graphs.     

图的双控制的一些新结果

图G=(V,E)的每个顶点控制它的闭邻域的每个顶点.S是一个顶点子集合,如果G的每一个顶点至少被S中的两个顶点控制,则称S是G的一个双控制集.把双控制集的最小基数称为双控制数,记为dd(G).本文探讨了双控制数和其它控制参数的一些新关系,推广了[1]的一些结果.并且给出了双控制数的Nordhaus-Gaddum类型的结果.     

子立方无爪图的单射边色数至多为6

设$G$是一个图. 图$G$的一个单射边染色是指图$G$的一个边染色, 使得距离为$2$的两条边或者在同一个三角形中的两条边染不同的颜色. 图$G$的单射边色数是指图$G$的任意单射边染色所需要的最少颜色数. 关于单射边色数有一个猜想: 任意一个子立方图的单射边色数都不超过$6$. 在本文中, 我们证明了这个猜想对子立方无爪图是成立的, 并且给出图例说明上界$6$是紧的. 同时, 我们的证明隐含了求解这类图不超过$6$种颜色的单射边染色方案的一个线性时间算法.     

关于元爪图的一个性质(英文)

In this paper we consider a property of claw-free graphs.We show that if d（u）＋ d（v）≥ν（G）＋2k＋3,for every two nonadjacent vertices u and v,then G is 2k-vertex-deletable IM-extendable,whereν（G）=｜V（G）｜.And the bound is tight.     

Vertex pancyclicity in quasi claw-free graphs

This paper generalizes the concept of locally connected graphs. A graph G is triangularly connected if for every pair of edges e₁,e₂∈E(G), G has a sequence of 3-cycles C₁,C₂,…,C_l such that e₁∈C₁,e₂∈C_l and E(C_i)∩E(C_i+1)≠∅ for 1?i?l-1. In this paper, we show that every triangularly connected quasi claw-free graph on at least three vertices is vertex pancyclic. Therefore, the conjecture proposed by Ainouche is solved.     

Non-traceability of large connected claw-free graphs

Let G be a connected claw-free graph on n vertices. Let ς₃(G) be the minimum degree sum among triples of independent vertices in G. It is proved that if ς₃(G) ≥ n − 3 then G is traceable or else G is one of graphs G_n each of which comprises three disjoint nontrivial complete graphs joined together by three additional edges which induce a triangle K₃. Moreover, it is shown that for any integer k ≥ 4 there exists a positive integer ν(k) such that if ς₃(G) ≥ n − k, n > ν(k) and G is non-traceable, then G is a factor of a graph G_n. Consequently, the problem HAMILTONIAN PATH restricted to claw-free graphs G = (V, E) (which is known to be NP-complete) has linear time complexity O(|E|) provided that ς₃(G) ≥ . This contrasts sharply with known results on NP-completeness among dense graphs. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Graph Theory 27: 75–86, 1998     

D λ -cycles in 3-cyclable graphs

Letk and be positive integers, andG a 2-connected graph of ordern with minimum degree and independence number. A cycleC ofG is called aD -cycle if every component ofG – V(C) has order smaller than. The graphG isk-cyclable if anyk vertices ofG lie on a common cycle. A previous result of the author is that if k 2, G isk-connected and every connected subgraphH ofG of order has at leastn +k ² + 1/k + 1 – vertices outsideH adjacent to at least one vertex ofH, thenG contains aD -cycle. Here it is conjectured that k-connected can be replaced by k-cyclable, and this is proved fork = 3. As a consequence it is shown that ifn 4 – 6, or ifG is triangle-free andn 8 – 10, thenG contains aD ₃-cycle orG , where denotes a well-known class of nonhamiltonian graphs of connectivity 2. As an analogue of a result of Nash-Williams it follows that ifn 4 – 6 and – 1, thenG is hamiltonian orG . The results are all best possible and compare favorably with recent results on hamiltonicity of graphs which are close to claw-free.     

直径不超过2的2连通无爪图是哈密顿图

不包含2K_2的图是指不包含一对独立边作为导出子图的图.Kriesell证明了所有4连通的无爪图的线图是哈密顿连通的.本文证明了如果图G不包含2K_2并且不同构与K_2,P_3和双星图,那么线图L(G)是哈密顿图,进一步应用由Ryjá(?)ek引入的闭包的概念,给出了直径不超过2的2连通无爪图是哈密顿图这个定理的新的证明方法.     

Path factors and parallel knock-out schemes of almost claw-free graphs

An H₁,{H₂}-factor of a graph G is a spanning subgraph of G with exactly one component isomorphic to the graph H₁ and all other components (if there are any) isomorphic to the graph H₂. We completely characterise the class of connected almost claw-free graphs that have a P₇,{P₂}-factor, where P₇ and P₂ denote the paths on seven and two vertices, respectively. We apply this result to parallel knock-out schemes for almost claw-free graphs. These schemes proceed in rounds in each of which each surviving vertex eliminates one of its surviving neighbours. A graph is reducible if such a scheme eliminates every vertex in the graph. Using our characterisation, we are able to classify all reducible almost claw-free graphs, and we can show that every reducible almost claw-free graph is reducible in at most two rounds. This leads to a quadratic time algorithm for determining if an almost claw-free graph is reducible (which is a generalisation and improvement upon the previous strongest result that showed that there was a O(n^5.376) time algorithm for claw-free graphs on n vertices).
