Nilpotent graphs with crosscap at most two

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics, 2018
Let R be a commutative ring with identity. The nilpotent graph of R, denoted by Γ N ( R ) , is a graph with vertex set Z N ( R ) ∗ , and two vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if x y is nilpotent, where Z N ( R ) = { x ∈ R : x y is nilpotent, for ...

Characterizations of outerplanar graphs

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 1979
AbstractThe paper presents several characterizations of outerplanar graphs, some of them are counterparts of the well-known characterizations of planar graphs and the other provide very efficient tools for outerplanarity testing, coding (i.e. isomorphism testing), and counting such graphs.

Recognizing Trees From Incomplete Decks

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Star Coloring Outerplanar Bipartite Graphs

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2019
A proper coloring of the vertices of a graph is called a star coloring if at least three colors are used on every 4-vertex path. We show that all outerplanar bipartite graphs can be star colored using only five colors and construct the smallest known ...

On Endomorphism Universality of Sparse Graph Classes

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 110, Issue 2, Page 223-244, October 2025.
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,

Fuzzy Outerplanar Graphs and Its Applications

open access: yesInternational 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

On Vertices Enforcing a Hamiltonian Cycle

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2013
A nonempty vertex set X ⊆ V (G) of a hamiltonian graph G is called an H-force set of G if every X-cycle of G (i.e. a cycle of G containing all vertices of X) is hamiltonian.

Strong Oriented Chromatic Number of Planar Graphs without Short Cycles [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2008
Let M be an additive abelian group. An M-strong-oriented coloring of an oriented graph G is a mapping f from V(G) to M such that f(u) j(v) whenever uv is an arc in G and f(v)−f(u) −(f(t)−f(z)) whenever uv and zt are two arcs in G.

Frequent Subgraph Mining in Outerplanar Graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In recent years there has been an increased interest in frequent pattern discovery in large databases of graph structured objects. While the frequent connected subgraph mining problem for tree datasets can be solved in incremental polynomial time, it ...

Tight Distance Query Reconstruction for Trees and Graphs Without Long Induced Cycles

open access: yesRandom Structures &Algorithms, Volume 66, Issue 4, July 2025.
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$$ E $$?
