On hamiltonicity of 1-tough triangle-free graphs

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Graph Theory and Applications, 2021
Let ω(G) denote the number of components of a graph G. A connected graph G is said to be 1-tough if ω(G − X)≤|X| for all X ⊆ V(G) with ω(G − X)>1. It is well-known that every hamiltonian graph is 1-tough, but that the reverse statement is not true in ...

The Ryjáček Closure and a Forbidden Subgraph

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2016
The Ryjáček closure is a powerful tool in the study of Hamiltonian properties of claw-free graphs. Because of its usefulness, we may hope to use it in the classes of graphs defined by another forbidden subgraph. In this note, we give a negative answer to

Colouring graphs with forbidden bipartite subgraphs

open access: yesCombinatorics, Probability and Computing, 2022
AbstractA conjecture of Alon, Krivelevich and Sudakov states that, for any graph $F$ , there is a constant $c_F \gt 0$ such that if $G$ is an $F$ -free graph of maximum degree $\Delta$ , then $\chi\!(G) \leqslant c_F \Delta/ \log\!\Delta$ . Alon, Krivelevich and Sudakov verified this conjecture for a class of graphs $F$ that includes all ...

The graph grabbing game on {0,1}-weighted graphs

open access: yesResults in Applied Mathematics, 2019
The graph grabbing game is a two-player game on a weighted connected graph in which two players, Alice and Bob, alternatively remove non-cut vertices one by one to gain the weights on them.

Hereditary Equality of Domination and Exponential Domination in Subcubic Graphs

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2021
Let γ(G) and γe(G) denote the domination number and exponential domination number of graph G, respectively. Henning et al., in [Hereditary equality of domination and exponential domination, Discuss. Math. Graph Theory 38 (2018) 275–285] gave a conjecture:

Ramsey-type Theorems with Forbidden Subgraphs [PDF]

open access: yesCombinatorica, 2001
P. Erdős and A. Hajnal conjectured that for every finite graph \(H\) every \(H\)-free graph on \(n\) vertices contains a complete or empty subgraph of size \(n^{\varepsilon(H)}\). It is shown that if the conjecture holds for \(H_1\), \(H_2\) then it holds for the graph which is \(H_1\) with one vertex blown up to a copy of \(H_2\).

The structure of graphs with forbidden induced $C_4$, $\overline{C}_4$, $C_5$, $S_3$, chair and co-chair

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Graph Theory and Applications, 2018
We find the structure of graphs that have no C4, $\overline{C}_4$, C5, S3, chair and co-chair as induced subgraphs. Then we deduce the structure of the graphs having no induced C4, $\overline{C_4}$, S3, chair and co-chair and the structure of the graphs ...

Weakly threshold graphs [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2018
We define a weakly threshold sequence to be a degree sequence $d=(d_1,\dots,d_n)$ of a graph having the property that $\sum_{i \leq k} d_i \geq k(k-1)+\sum_{i > k} \min\{k,d_i\} - 1$ for all positive $k \leq \max\{i:d_i \geq i-1\}$.

Forbidden subgraphs in connected graphs

open access: yesTheoretical Computer Science, 2004
Given a set $ =\{H_1,H_2,...\}$ of connected non acyclic graphs, a $ $-free graph is one which does not contain any member of $% $ as copy. Define the excess of a graph as the difference between its number of edges and its number of vertices. Let ${\gr{W}}_{k, }$ be theexponential generating function (EGF for brief) of connected $ $-free graphs ...
