Strong Geodetic Problem in Networks

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2020
In order to model certain social network problems, the strong geodetic problem and its related invariant, the strong geodetic number, are introduced.

Decomposing tournaments into paths

open access: yesProceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 121, Issue 2, Page 426-461, August 2020., 2020
Abstract We consider a generalisation of Kelly's conjecture which is due to Alspach, Mason, and Pullman from 1976. Kelly's conjecture states that every regular tournament has an edge decomposition into Hamilton cycles, and this was proved by Kühn and Osthus for large tournaments. The conjecture of Alspach, Mason, and Pullman asks for the minimum number

A Survey on Packing Colorings

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2020
If S = (a1, a2, . . .) is a non-decreasing sequence of positive integers, then an S-packing coloring of a graph G is a partition of V (G) into sets X1, X2, . . .

Minimally Strong Subgraph (k,ℓ)-Arc-Connected Digraphs

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2022
Let D = (V,A) be a digraph of order n, S a subset of V of size k and 2 ≤ k ≤ n. A subdigraph H of D is called an S-strong subgraph if H is strong and S ⊆ V (H). Two S-strong subgraphs D1 and D2 are said to be arc-disjoint if A(D1) ∩ A(D2) = ∅.

Distance-based Indices Computation of Symmetry Molecular Structures

open access: yesOpen Journal of Mathematical Sciences, 2018
Most of molecular structures have symmetrical characteristics. It inspires us to calculate the topological indices by means of group theory. In this paper, we present the formulations for computing the several distance-based topological indices using ...

Path Decomposition Number of Certain Graphs

open access: yesOpen Journal of Discrete Applied Mathematics, 2018
Let G be a simple, finite and connected graph. A graph is said to be decomposed into subgraphs H1 and H2 which is denoted by G = H1 ⊕H2, if G is the edge disjoint union of H1 and H2.

On Leighton's graph covering theorem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We give short expositions of both Leighton's proof and the Bass-Kulkarni proof of Leighton's graph covering theorem, in the context of colored graphs. We discuss a further generalization, needed elsewhere, to "symmetry-restricted graphs". We can prove it

On the Number of Disjoint 4-Cycles in Regular Tournaments

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2018
In this paper, we prove that for an integer r ≥ 1, every regular tournament T of degree 3r − 1 contains at least 2116r-103${{21} \over {16}}r - {{10} \over 3}$ disjoint directed 4-cycles. Our result is an improvement of Lichiardopol’s theorem when taking

Graphs that are Critical for the Packing Chromatic Number

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2022
Given a graph G, a coloring c : V (G) → {1, …, k} such that c(u) = c(v) = i implies that vertices u and v are at distance greater than i, is called a packing coloring of G.
