The Dichromatic Number of Infinite Families of Circulant Tournaments

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2017
The dichromatic number dc(D) of a digraph D is defined to be the minimum number of colors such that the vertices of D can be colored in such a way that every chromatic class induces an acyclic subdigraph in D.

Forbidden Subgraphs for Collapsible Graphs and Supereulerian Graphs

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2022
In this paper, we completely characterize the connected forbidden subgraphs and pairs of connected forbidden subgraphs that force a 2-edge-connected (2-connected) graph to be collapsible.

Long cycles in certain graphs of large degree

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 24, Issue 10, Page 691-697, 2000., 2000
Let G be a connected graph of order n and X = {x ∈ V : d(x) ≥ n/2}. Suppose |X| ≥ 3 and G satisfies the modified Fan′s condition. We show that the vertices of the block B of G containing X form a cycle. This generalizes a result of Fan. We also give an efficient algorithm to obtain such a cycle. The complexity of this algorithm is O(n2). In case G is 2‐

Longest cycles in certain bipartite graphs

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 103-106, 1998., 1995
Let G be a connected bipartite graph with bipartition (X, Y) such that |X| ≥ |Y|(≥2), n = |X| and m = |Y|. Suppose, for all vertices x ∈ X and y ∈ Y, dist(x, y) = 3 implies d(x) + d(y) ≥ n + 1. Then G contains a cycle of length 2m. In particular, if m = n, then G is hamiltomian.

Path decompositions of chains and circuits

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, Page 521-533, 1983., 1983
Expressions for the path polynomials (see Farrell [1]) of chains and circuits are derived. These polynomials are then used to deduce results about node disjoint path decompositions of chains and circuits. Some results are also given for decompositions in which specific paths must be used.

On q-Power Cycles in Cubic Graphs

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2017
In the context of a conjecture of Erdős and Gyárfás, we consider, for any q ≥ 2, the existence of q-power cycles (i.e., with length a power of q) in cubic graphs. We exhibit constructions showing that, for every q ≥ 3, there exist arbitrarily large cubic

A Fan-Type Heavy Pair Of Subgraphs For Pancyclicity Of 2-Connected Graphs

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2016
Let G be a graph on n vertices and let H be a given graph. We say that G is pancyclic, if it contains cycles of all lengths from 3 up to n, and that it is H-f1-heavy, if for every induced subgraph K of G isomorphic to H and every two vertices u, v ∈ V (K)

Hamiltonian Extendable Graphs

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2022
A graph is called Hamiltonian extendable if there exists a Hamiltonian path between any two nonadjacent vertices. In this paper, we give an explicit formula of the minimum number of edges for Hamiltonian extendable graphs and we also characterize the ...

A note on directed 4-cycles in digraphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Using some combinatorial techniques, in this note, it is proved that if $\alpha\geq 0.28866$, then any digraph on $n$ vertices with minimum outdegree at least $\alpha n$ contains a directed cycle of length at most ...

Cyclic Cordial Labeling for the Lemniscate Graphs and Their Second Powers

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
A lemniscate graph, usually denoted by Ln,m, is defined as a union of two cycles Cn and Cm that share a common vertex. A simple graph is called cyclic group cordial if we can provide a three elements’ cyclic group labeling satisfying certain conditions.
