چکیده

We characterise the quartic (i.e. 4-regular) multigraphs with the property that every edge lies in a triangle. The main result is that such graphs are either squares of cycles, line multigraphs of cubic multigraphs, or are obtained from the line multigraphs of cubic multigraphs by a number of simple subgraph-replacement operations. A corollary of this is that a simple quartic graph with every edge in a triangle is either the square of a cycle or a graph obtained from the line graph of a cubic graph by replacing triangles with copies of K1,1,3.

Sufficient conditions for maximally edge-connected and super-edge-connected

Let $G$ be a connected graph with minimum degree $delta$ and edge-connectivity $lambda$. A graph ismaximally edge-connected if $lambda=delta$, and it is super-edge-connected if every minimum edge-cut istrivial; that is, if every minimum edge-cut consists of edges incident with a vertex of minimum degree.In this paper, we show that a connected graph or a connected triangle-free graph is maximall...

Maximal outerplanar graphs as chordal graphs, path-neighborhood graphs, and triangle graphs

Maximal outerplanar graphs are characterized using three different classes of graphs. A path-neighborhood graph is a connected graph in which every neighborhood induces a path. The triangle graph T (G) has the triangles of the graph G as its vertices, two of these being adjacent whenever as triangles in G they share an edge. A graph is edge-triangular if every edge is in at least one triangle. ...

On the signed Roman edge k-domination in graphs

Let $kgeq 1$ be an integer, and $G=(V,E)$ be a finite and simplegraph. The closed neighborhood $N_G[e]$ of an edge $e$ in a graph$G$ is the set consisting of $e$ and all edges having a commonend-vertex with $e$. A signed Roman edge $k$-dominating function(SREkDF) on a graph $G$ is a function $f:E rightarrow{-1,1,2}$ satisfying the conditions that (i) for every edge $e$of $G$, $sum _{xin N[e]} f...

Acyclic chromatic index of triangle-free 1-planar graphs

An acyclic edge coloring of a graph G is a proper edge coloring such that every cycle is colored with at least three colors. The acyclic chromatic index χa(G) of a graph G is the least number of colors in an acyclic edge coloring of G. It was conjectured that χa(G) ≤ ∆(G) + 2 for any simple graph G with maximum degree ∆(G). A graph is 1-planar if it can be drawn on the plane such that every edg...

Distinct edge geodetic decomposition in graphs

Let G=(V,E) be a simple connected graph of order p and size q. A decomposition of a graph G is a collection π of edge-disjoint subgraphs G_1,G_2,…,G_n of G such that every edge of G belongs to exactly one G_i,(1≤i ≤n). The decomposition 〖π={G〗_1,G_2,…,G_n} of a connected graph G is said to be a distinct edge geodetic decomposition if g_1 (G_i )≠g_1 (G_j ),(1≤i≠j≤n). The maximum cardinality of π...
