Recognizing Trees From Incomplete Decks
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 the Geometric Ramsey Number of Outerplanar Graphs
We prove polynomial upper bounds of geometric Ramsey numbers of pathwidth-2 outerplanar triangulations in both convex and general cases. We also prove that the geometric Ramsey numbers of the ladder graph on $2n$ vertices are bounded by $O(n^{3})$ and $O(

On Endomorphism Universality of Sparse Graph Classes
ABSTRACT We show that every commutative idempotent monoid (a.k.a. lattice) is the endomorphism monoid of a subcubic graph. This solves a problem of Babai and Pultr and the degree bound is best‐possible. On the other hand, we show that no class excluding a minor can have all commutative idempotent monoids among its endomorphism monoids. As a by‐product,

On the Planarity of Generalized Line Graphs
One of the most familiar derived graphs is the line graph. The line graph $L(G)$ of a graph $G$ is that graph whose vertices are the edges of $G$ where two vertices of $L(G)$ are adjacent if the corresponding edges are adjacent in~$G$.

Tight Distance Query Reconstruction for Trees and Graphs Without Long Induced Cycles
ABSTRACT Given access to the vertex set V$$ V $$ of a connected graph G=(V,E)$$ G=\left(V,E\right) $$ and an oracle that given two vertices u,v∈V$$ u,v\in V $$, returns the shortest path distance between u$$ u $$ and v$$ v $$, how many queries are needed to reconstruct E$$ E $$?

Feedback Arc Number and Feedback Vertex Number of Cartesian Product of Directed Cycles
For a digraph D, the feedback vertex number τ(D), (resp. the feedback arc number τ′(D)) is the minimum number of vertices, (resp. arcs) whose removal leaves the resultant digraph free of directed cycles. In this note, we determine τ(D) and τ′(D) for the Cartesian product of directed cycles D=Cn1→□Cn2→□…Cnk→. Actually, it is shown that τ′D=n1n2…nk∑i=1k1/

On vertex‐transitive graphs with a unique hamiltonian cycle
Abstract A graph is said to be uniquely hamiltonian if it has a unique hamiltonian cycle. For a natural extension of this concept to infinite graphs, we find all uniquely hamiltonian vertex‐transitive graphs with finitely many ends, and also discuss some examples with infinitely many ends.

Star edge coloring of $ K_{2, t} $-free planar graphs
The star chromatic index of a graph $ G $, denoted by $ \chi{'}_{st}(G) $, is the smallest number of colors required to properly color $ E(G) $ such that every connected bicolored subgraph is a path with no more than three edges.

A node-capacitated Okamura-Seymour theorem
The classical Okamura-Seymour theorem states that for an edge-capacitated, multi-commodity flow instance in which all terminals lie on a single face of a planar graph, there exists a feasible concurrent flow if and only if the cut conditions are ...

Approximation of pathwidth of outerplanar graphs [PDF]
Summary: There exists a polynomial time algorithm to compute the pathwidth of outerplanar graphs, but the large exponent makes this algorithm impractical. In this paper, we give an algorithm that, given a biconnected outerplanar graph \(G\), finds a path decomposition of \(G\) of pathwidth at most twice the pathwidth of \(G\) plus one.
