Recurrence Relations and Splitting Formulas for the Domination Polynomial
The domination polynomial D(G, x) of a graph G is the generating function of its dominating sets. We prove that D(G, x) satisfies a wide range of reduction formulas. We show linear recurrence relations for D(G, x) for arbitrary graphs and for various special cases. We give splitting formulas for D(G, x) based on articulation vertices, and more generally, on splitting sets of vertices.
متن کاملThe Tutte polynomial of a ported matroid
Las Vergnas’ generalizations of the Tutte polynomial are studied as follows. The theory of Tutte-Grothendieck matroid invariantsfis modified so the Tutte decomposition ,f(M) =f(M\e) +f( M/e) is applied only when e $ P (and e is neither a loop nor an isthmus) where P is a distinguished set of points called ports. The resulting “P-ported” Tutte polynomial tp has variables I, w; q,, qZ, . . . . qm...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
The Z-Polynomial of a Matroid
We introduce the Z-polynomial of a matroid, which we define in terms of the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial. We then exploit a symmetry of the Z-polynomial to derive a new recursion for Kazhdan-Lusztig coefficients. We solve this recursion, obtaining a closed formula for Kazhdan-Lusztig coefficients as alternating sums of multi-indexed Whitney numbers. For realizable matroids, we give a cohomologica...
متن کاملThe Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial of a matroid
We associate to every matroid M a polynomial with integer coefficients, which we call the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial of M , in analogy with Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials in representation theory. We conjecture that the coefficients are always non-negative, and we prove this conjecture for representable matroids by interpreting our polynomials as intersection cohomology Poincaré polynomials. We al...
