On Graphs Which Have Locally Complete 2‐Edge‐colourings and Their Relationship to Proper Circular‐Arc Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 2‐edge‐coloured graph G $G$ is called locally complete if for each vertex v $v$, the vertices adjacent to v $v$ through edges of the same colour induce a complete subgraph in G $G$. Locally complete 2‐edge‐coloured graphs have nice properties, and there exists a polynomial algorithm to decide whether such a graph has an alternating ...

The 1 3 $\frac{1}{3}$‐Conjectures for Domination in Cubic Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A set S $S$ of vertices in a graph G $G$ is a dominating set of G $G$ if every vertex not in S $S$ is adjacent to a vertex in S $S$. The domination number of G $G$, denoted by γ ( G ) $\gamma (G)$, is the minimum cardinality among all dominating sets in G $G$. In a breakthrough paper in 2008, Löwenstein and Rautenbach proved that if G $G$ is a

The Minimal Nonplanar Strong Digraphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Kuratowski's theorem says that the minimal (under subgraph containment) graphs that are not planar are the subdivisions of K 5 ${K}_{5}$ and of K 3 , 3 ${K}_{3,3}$. Here we study the minimal (under subdigraph containment) strongly‐connected digraphs that are not planar.

Flow‐Critical Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lovász et al. proved that every six‐edge‐connected graph has a nowhere‐zero three‐flow. In fact, they proved a more technical statement, which says that there exists a nowhere‐zero three‐flow that extends the flow prescribed on the incident edges of a single vertex z $z$ with bounded degree. We extend this theorem of Lovász et al.

From Finding a Spanning Subgraph H $H$ to an H $H$‐Factor

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A typical Dirac‐type problem in extremal graph theory is to determine the minimum degree threshold for a graph G $G$ to have a spanning subgraph H $H$, for example, the Dirac theorem. A natural follow‐up problem is to seek an H $H$‐factor, which is a spanning set of vertex‐disjoint copies of H $H$.

A Structural Description of Zykov and Blanche Descartes Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Around 1950, Zykov and Blanche Descartes proposed the two first explicit constructions of triangle‐free graphs with arbitrarily large chromatic number. We define a Zykov (resp. Blanche Descartes) graph as any induced subgraph of a graph created using Zykov's construction (resp. Blanche Descartes's).
