Nonplanarity of Iterated Line Graphs

Journal of Mathematics, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
The 1‐crossing index of a graph G is the smallest integer k such that the kth iterated line graph of G has crossing number greater than 1. In this paper, we show that the 1‐crossing index of a graph is either infinite or it is at most 5. Moreover, we give a full characterization of all graphs with respect to their 1‐crossing index.

Game Chromatic Number of Generalized Petersen Graphs and Jahangir Graphs

Journal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Let G = (V, E) be a graph, and two players Alice and Bob alternate turns coloring the vertices of the graph G a proper coloring where no two adjacent vertices are signed with the same color. Alice′s goal is to color the set of vertices using the minimum number of colors, which is called game chromatic number and is denoted by χg(G), while Bob′s goal is

On Separating Path and Tree Systems in Graphs [PDF]

Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science
We explore the concept of separating systems of vertex sets of graphs. A separating system of a set $X$ is a collection of subsets of $X$ such that for any pair of distinct elements in $X$, there exists a set in the separating system that contains ...

Reconstruction of maximal outerplanar graphs

Discrete Mathematics, 1972
AbstractS. Ulam has conjectured that every graph with three or more points is uniquely determined by its collection of point-deleted subgraphs. This has been proved for various classes of graphs, but progress has generally been confined to very symmetrical graphs and graphs with connectivity zero or one.

Face Sizes and the Connectivity of the Dual

Journal of Graph Theory, Volume 110, Issue 4, Page 379-391, December 2025.
ABSTRACT For each c ≥ 1, we prove tight lower bounds on face sizes that must be present to allow 1‐ or 2‐cuts in simple duals of c‐connected maps. Using these bounds, we determine the smallest genus on which a c‐connected map can have a simple dual with a 2‐cut and give lower and some upper bounds for the smallest genus on which a c‐connected map can ...

Fuzzy Outerplanar Graphs and Its Applications

International Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems
The concept of a crisp graph is essential in the study of outerplanar graphs because outerplanar graphs are a unique type of planar graphs containing special characteristics. One of the core concepts of crisp graphs, the notion of a subgraph, is utilized

Dominating sets inducing large components in maximal outerplanar graphs [PDF]

Journal of Graph Theory, 2017
AbstractFor a maximal outerplanar graph G of order n at least three, Matheson and Tarjan showed that G has domination number at most . Similarly, for a maximal outerplanar graph G of order n at least five, Dorfling, Hattingh, and Jonck showed, by a completely different approach, that G has total domination number at most unless G is isomorphic to one ...

Recognizing Trees From Incomplete Decks

Journal of Graph Theory, Volume 110, Issue 3, Page 322-336, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Given a graph G, the unlabeled subgraphs G − v are called the cards of G. The deck of G is the multiset { G − v : v ∈ V ( G ) }. Wendy Myrvold showed that a disconnected graph and a connected graph both on n vertices have at most ⌊ n 2 ⌋ + 1 cards in common and found (infinite) families of trees and disconnected forests for which this upper ...

On reconstructing maximal outerplanar graphs

Discrete Mathematics, 1974
Manvel has proved that a maximal outerplanar graph can be reconstructed from the collection of isomorphism types of subgraphs obtained by deleting vertices of the given graph. This paper sharpens Manvel's result by showing that if the graph is not a triangulation of a hexagon, then reconstruction can be accomplished using only those isomorphism types ...
