Extremal Graphs for Blow-Ups of Cycles and Trees
نویسنده
چکیده
The blow-up of a graph H is the graph obtained from replacing each edge in H by a clique of the same size where the new vertices of the cliques are all different. Erdős et al. and Chen et al. determined the extremal number of blow-ups of stars. Glebov determined the extremal number and found all extremal graphs for blowups of paths. We determine the extremal number and find the extremal graphs for the blow-ups of cycles and a large class of trees, when n is sufficiently large. This generalizes their results. The additional aim of our note is to draw attention to a powerful tool, a classical decomposition theorem of Simonovits.

On the number of pentagons in triangle-free graphs
Using the formalism of flag algebras, we prove that the maximal number of copies of C5 in a triangle-free graph with 5l + a vertices (0 ≤ a ≤ 4) is l(l + 1)a, and we show that the set of extremal graphs for this problem consists precisely of almost balanced blow-ups of a single pentagon. This settles a conjecture made by Erdős in 1984. For the transition from an asymptotic version of our result...
متن کاملLeap Zagreb indices of trees and unicyclic graphs
By d(v|G) and d_2(v|G) are denoted the number of first and second neighborsof the vertex v of the graph G. The first, second, and third leap Zagreb indicesof G are defined asLM_1(G) = sum_{v in V(G)} d_2(v|G)^2, LM_2(G) = sum_{uv in E(G)} d_2(u|G) d_2(v|G),and LM_3(G) = sum_{v in V(G)} d(v|G) d_2(v|G), respectively. In this paper, we generalizethe results of Naji et al. [Commun. Combin. Optim. ...
متن کاملOn the Caccetta-Häggkvist Conjecture with a Forbidden Transitive Tournament
The Caccetta-Häggkvist Conjecture asserts that every oriented graph on n vertices without directed cycles of length less than or equal to l has minimum outdegree at most (n−1)/l. In this paper we state a conjecture for graphs missing a transitive tournament on 2 + 1 vertices, with a weaker assumption on minimum outdegree. We prove that the Caccetta-Häggkvist Conjecture follows from the presente...
متن کاملAlmost Given Length Cycles in Digraphs
A digraph is called k-cyclic if it cannot be made acyclic by removing less than k arcs. It is proved that for every > 0 there are constants K and δ so that for every d ∈ (0, δn), every n2-cyclic digraph with n vertices contains a directed cycle whose length is between d and d+K. A more general result of the same form is obtained for blow-ups of directed cycles.
متن کاملOn the harmonic index of bicyclic graphs
The harmonic index of a graph $G$, denoted by $H(G)$, is defined asthe sum of weights $2/[d(u)+d(v)]$ over all edges $uv$ of $G$, where$d(u)$ denotes the degree of a vertex $u$. Hu and Zhou [Y. Hu and X. Zhou, WSEAS Trans. Math. {bf 12} (2013) 716--726] proved that for any bicyclic graph $G$ of order $ngeq 4$, $H(G)le frac{n}{2}-frac{1}{15}$ and characterize all extremal bicyclic graphs.In this...
