On Fork‐Free t‐Perfect Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In an effort to understand the complexity of the maximum independent set problem, Chvátal introduced t‐perfect graphs. While a full characterization of this class remains open, important progress has been made for claw‐free graphs [Bruhn and Stein, Math. Program. 2012] and P 5 ${P}_{5}$‐free graphs [Bruhn and Fuchs, SIAM J. Discrete Math. 2017]

Note on group distance magic complete bipartite graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A Γ-distance magic labeling of a graph G = (V, E) with |V| = n is a bijection ℓ from V to an Abelian group Γ of order n such that the weight $$w(x) = \sum\nolimits_{y \in N_G (x)} {\ell (y)}$$ of every vertex x ∈ V is equal to the same element µ ∈ Γ ...

Tree Independence Number III. Thetas, Prisms and Stars

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We prove that for every t ∈ N $t\in {\mathbb{N}}$ there exists τ = τ ( t ) ∈ N $\tau =\tau (t)\in {\mathbb{N}}$ such that every (theta, prism, K 1 , t ${K}_{1,t}$)‐free graph has tree independence number at most τ $\tau $ (where we allow “prisms” to have one path of length zero).

On Odd Covers of Cliques and Disjoint Unions

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Babai and Frankl posed the “odd cover problem” of finding the minimum cardinality of a collection of complete bipartite graphs such that every edge of the complete graph of order n $n$ is covered an odd number of times. In a previous paper with O'Neill, some of the authors proved that this value is always ⌈ n / 2 ⌉ $\lceil n/2\rceil $ or ⌈ n /

Explicit 3‐colorings for Exponential Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 1985, El‐Zahar and Sauer showed that the chromatic number of the direct product of two 4‐chromatic graphs is 4, establishing a nontrivial case of Hedetniemi's conjecture, which has since been refuted in general. Their proof uses the concept of an exponential graph, showing that if a graph H $H$ has no proper 3‐coloring, then the exponential

Saturated Partial Embeddings of Planar Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this work, we study how far one can deviate from optimal behavior when embedding a planar graph. For a planar graph G $G$, we say that a plane subgraph H ⊆ G $H\subseteq G$ is a plane‐saturated subgraph if adding any edge (possibly with new vertices) to H $H$ would either violate planarity or make the resulting graph no longer a subgraph of

Effects on Seidel energy of two special types of graphs by perturbing edges

open access: yesKuwait Journal of Science
Let G be a simple undirected graph, and let S(G) be its Seidel matrix. The Seidel energy of G is defined as ES(G)=∑i=1n|λS(G)|, where λS(G),λS(G),…,λS(G) are Seidel eigenvalues of G.

Soil Contamination Around the Copper Smelter and the Use of Soil Microarthropods as Bioindicators

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil contamination from smelter emissions, including heavy metals (HM), rare earth elements (REEs), and sulfur, poses a significant threat to soil ecosystems. In the immediate vicinity of the Głogów Copper Smelter, HM concentrations were several times higher than in more distant forest stands.

The Bipartite-Splittance of a Bipartite Graph

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2019
A bipartite-split graph is a bipartite graph whose vertex set can be partitioned into a complete bipartite set and an independent set. The bipartite- splittance of an arbitrary bipartite graph is the minimum number of edges to be added or removed in ...
