On the Number of Cycles in a Graph

نویسنده

  • Bader F. AlBdaiwi
چکیده

There is a sizable literature on investigating the minimum and maximum numbers of cycles in a class of graphs. However, the answer is known only for special classes. This paper presents a result on the smallest number of cycles in hamiltonian 3-connected cubic graphs. Further, it describes a proof technique that could improve an upper bound of the largest number of cycles in a hamiltonian graph.

On Generalized Coprime Graphs

Paul Erdos defined the concept of coprime graph and studied about cycles in coprime graphs. In this paper this concept is generalized and a new graph called Generalized coprime graph is introduced. Having observed certain basic properties of the new graph it is proved that the chromatic number and the clique number of some generalized coprime graphs are equal.

On generalized atom-bond connectivity index of cacti

The generalized atom-bond connectivity index of a graph G is denoted by ABCa(G) and defined as the sum of weights ((d(u)+d(v)-2)/d(u)d(v))aa$ over all edges uv∊G. A cactus is a graph in which any two cycles have at most one common vertex. In this paper, we compute sharp bounds for  ABCa index for cacti of order $n$ ...

On list vertex 2-arboricity of toroidal graphs without cycles of specific length

The vertex arboricity $rho(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of subsets into which the vertex set $V(G)$ can be partitioned so that each subset induces an acyclic graph‎. ‎A graph $G$ is called list vertex $k$-arborable if for any set $L(v)$ of cardinality at least $k$ at each vertex $v$ of $G$‎, ‎one can choose a color for each $v$ from its list $L(v)$ so that the subgraph induced by ev...

New results on upper domatic number of graphs

For a graph $G = (V, E)$, a partition $pi = {V_1,$ $V_2,$ $ldots,$ $V_k}$ of the vertex set $V$ is an textit{upper domatic partition} if $V_i$ dominates $V_j$ or $V_j$ dominates $V_i$ or both for every $V_i, V_j in pi$, whenever $i neq j$. The textit{upper domatic number} $D(G)$ is the maximum order of an upper domatic partition. We study the properties of upper domatic number and propose an up...

0n removable cycles in graphs and digraphs

In this paper we define the removable cycle that, if $Im$ is a class of graphs, $Gin Im$, the cycle $C$ in $G$ is called removable if $G-E(C)in Im$. The removable cycles in Eulerian graphs have been studied. We characterize Eulerian graphs which contain two edge-disjoint removable cycles, and the necessary and sufficient conditions for Eulerian graph to have removable cycles h...

Different-Distance Sets in a Graph

A set of vertices $S$ in a connected graph $G$ is a different-distance set if, for any vertex $w$ outside $S$, no two vertices in $S$ have the same distance to $w$.The lower and upper different-distance number of a graph are the order of a smallest, respectively largest, maximal different-distance set.We prove that a different-distance set induces either a special type of path or an independent...
