Line Graphs of Multigraphs and the Forbidden Graph E 6
ABSTRACT The line graph Γ of a multigraph Δ is the graph whose vertices are the edges of Δ, where two such edges are adjacent if and only if they meet in a single vertex of Δ. We provide several characterizations of such line graphs and in particular show that a graph is a line graph if and only if it does not contain one of the 32 graphs, all of which

Ramsey Numbers of Connected Clique Matchings
We determine the Ramsey number of a connected clique matching. That is, we show that if $G$ is a $2$-edge-coloured complete graph on $(r^2-r-1)n-r+1$ vertices, then there is a monochromatic connected subgraph containing $n$ disjoint copies of $K_r$, and that this number of vertices cannot be reduced.

A Note on Extendable Sets of Colorings and Rooted Minors
ABSTRACT DeVos and Seymour proved that for every set C $C$ of 3‐colorings of a set X $X$ of vertices, there exists a plane graph G $G$ with vertices of X $X$ incident with the outer face such that a 3‐coloring of X $X$ extends to a 3‐coloring of G $G$ if and only if it belongs to C $C$.

The upper chromatic number of quasi-interval co-hypergraphs
We investigate the structural and colouring properties of clique hyper-graphs of interval graphs called the quasi-interval hypergraphs. We find the conditions when they are interval hypergraphs. The upper chromatic number for the clique co-hypergraphs of

Finding Large Clique Minors is Hard
We prove that it is NP-complete, given a graph G and a parameter h, to determine whether G contains a complete graph Kh as a minor.

Equivalent Formulation of Thomassen's Conjecture Using Tutte Paths in Claw‐Free Graphs
ABSTRACT We continue studying Thomassen's conjecture (every 4‐connected line graph has a Hamilton cycle) in the direction of a recently shown equivalence with Jackson's conjecture (every 2‐connected claw‐free graph has a Tutte cycle), and we extend the equivalent formulation as follows: In every connected claw‐free graph, any two vertices are connected

A Note on Lovász Characterization of Perfect Graphs
ABSTRACT A graph is perfect if, for every induced subgraph, the chromatic number equals the size of its largest clique. In 1972, Lovász established a fundamental characterization of perfect graphs, showing that a graph is perfect if and only if, for every induced subgraph, the product of the size of the largest independent set and the size of the ...

Disrupting the Chain of Displaced Aggression: A Review and Agenda for Future Research
ABSTRACT Displaced aggression refers to instances in which a person redirects their harm‐doing behavior from a primary to a secondary, substitute target. Since the publication of the first empirical article in 1948, there has been a noticeable surge in research referencing this theory in both management and psychology journals.

ABSTRACT Subgroups are dynamic entities evolving constantly in response to changing contexts and time. Although scholars from both the attribute and the network views have acknowledged that subgroups are inherently complex and fluid, research in these traditions has remained bifurcated, with limited efforts to integrate the two perspectives to more ...
