Decompositions of Complete Bipartite Graphs and Complete Graphs Into Paths, Stars, and Cycles with Four Edges Each

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2021
Let G be either a complete graph of odd order or a complete bipartite graph in which each vertex partition has an even number of vertices. In this paper, we determine the set of triples (p, q, r), with p, q, r > 0, for which there exists a decomposition ...

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.

Maps preserving matrices of extremal scrambling index

open access: yesSpecial Matrices, 2018
In this paper we characterize surjective linear maps on matrices over antinegative semirings that preserve the set of matrices with maximal or minimal positive values of the scrambling index.

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.

Biclique Decompositions and Hermitian Rank [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The Hermitian rank, h(A), of a Hermitian matrix A is defined and shown to equal maxfn+ (A); n \Gamma (A)g, the maximum of the numbers of positive and negative eigenvalues of A.

On the Minimum Number of Spanning Trees in Cubic Multigraphs

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2020
Let G2n, H2n be two non-isomorphic connected cubic multigraphs of order 2n with parallel edges permitted but without loops. Let t(G2n), t (H2n) denote the number of spanning trees in G2n, H2n, respectively. We prove that for n ≥ 3 there is the unique G2n

Matchings Extend to Hamiltonian Cycles in 5-Cube

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2018
Ruskey and Savage asked the following question: Does every matching in a hypercube Qn for n ≥ 2 extend to a Hamiltonian cycle of Qn? Fink confirmed that every perfect matching can be extended to a Hamiltonian cycle of Qn, thus solved Kreweras’ conjecture.

Spectra of Orders for k-Regular Graphs of Girth g

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2021
A (k, g)-graph is a k-regular graph of girth g. Given k ≥ 2 and g ≥ 3, infinitely many (k, g)-graphs of infinitely many orders are known to exist. Our goal, for given k and g, is the classification of all orders n for which a (k, g)-graph of order n ...

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

Spectra of expansion graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
. Replace certain edges of a directed graph by chains and consider the eect on the spectrum of the graph. It is shown that the spectral radius decreases monotonically with the expansion and that, for a strongly connected graph that is not a single cycle,
