Star arboricity
A star forest is a forest all of whose components are stars. The star arboricity, st(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of star forests whose union covers all the edges of G. The arboricity, A(G), of a graph G is the minimum number of forests whose union covers all the edges of G. Clearly st(G) > A(G). In fact, Algor and Alon have given examples which show that in some cases st(G) can be as ...
متن کاملAcircuitic directed star arboricity of planar graphs with large girth
A directed star forest is a forest all of whose components are stars with arcs emanating from the center to the leaves. The acircuitic directed star arboricity of an oriented graph G is the minimum number of edge-disjoint directed star forests whose union covers all edges of G and such that the union of two such forests is acircuitic. We show that graphs with maximum average degree less than 7 ...
متن کاملOn incidence coloring and star arboricity of graphs
In this note we show that the concept of incidence coloring introduced in [BM] is a special case of directed star arboricity, introduced in [AA]. A conjecture in [BM] concerning asmyptotics of the incidence coloring number is solved in the negative following an example in [AA]. We generalize Theorem 2.1 of [AMR] concerning the star arboricity of graphs to the directed case by a slight modificat...
متن کاملThe Linear Arboricity of Graphs
A linear forest is a forest in which each connected component is a path. The linear arboricity la(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of linear forests whose union is the set of all edges of G. The linear arboricity conjecture asserts that for every simple graph G with maximum degree A = A(G), Although this conjecture received a considerable amount of attention, it has been proved only for A ...
متن کاملOn the star arboricity of hypercubes
A hypercube Qn is a graph in which the vertices are all binary vectors of length n, and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their components differ in exactly one place. A galaxy or a star forest is a union of vertex disjoint stars. The star arboricity of a graph G, sa(G), is the minimum number of galaxies which partition the edge set of G. In this paper among other results, we determine t...
