چکیده

In this paper, we develop efficient exact and approximate algorithms for computing a maximum independent set in random graphs. In a random graph G, each pair of vertices are joined by an edge with a probability p, where p is a constant between 0 and 1. We show that, a maximum independent set in a random graph that contains n vertices can be computed in expected computation time 2 2 2 . Using techniques based on enumeration, we develop an algorithm that can find a largest common subgraph in two random graphs in n and m vertices (m ≤ n) in expected computation time 2 1 2 log 5 3 2 . In addition, we show that, with high probability, the parameterized independent set problem is fixed parameter tractable in random graphs and the maximum independent set in a random graph in n vertices can be approximated within a ratio of 2n 2 √ log2 n in expected polynomial time.

Labeling Subgraph Embeddings and Cordiality of Graphs

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and edge set $E(G)$, a vertex labeling $f : V(G)rightarrow mathbb{Z}_2$ induces an edge labeling $ f^{+} : E(G)rightarrow mathbb{Z}_2$ defined by $f^{+}(xy) = f(x) + f(y)$, for each edge $ xyin E(G)$.  For each $i in mathbb{Z}_2$, let $ v_{f}(i)=|{u in V(G) : f(u) = i}|$ and $e_{f^+}(i)=|{xyin E(G) : f^{+}(xy) = i}|$. A vertex labeling $f$ of a graph $G...

Vertex Decomposable Simplicial Complexes Associated to Path Graphs

Introduction Vertex decomposability of a simplicial complex is a combinatorial topological concept which is related to the algebraic properties of the Stanley-Reisner ring of the simplicial complex. This notion was first defined by Provan and Billera in 1980 for k-decomposable pure complexes which is known as vertex decomposable when . Later Bjorner and Wachs extended this concept to non-pure ...

Approximations via Partitioning

We consider the approximation of weighted maximum subgraph problems by partitioning the input graph into easier subproblems. In particular, we obtain efficient approximations of the weighted independent set problem with performance ratios of O(n(log log n/ log n)) and (∆ + 2)/3, with the latter improving on a ∆/2 ratio of Hochbaum for ∆ ≥ 5. We also obtain a O(n/ log n) performance ratio for va...

On independent domination numbers of grid and toroidal grid directed graphs

A subset $S$ of vertex set $V(D)$ is an {em indpendent dominating set} of $D$ if $S$ is both an independent and a dominating set of $D$. The {em indpendent domination number}, $i(D)$ is the cardinality of the smallest independent dominating set of $D$. In this paper we calculate the independent domination number of the { em cartesian product} of two {em directed paths} $P_m$ and $P_n$ for arbi...
