چکیده

A graph is called well-covered if every maximal independent set of vertices of G is a maximum independent set; recall that S is independent if no two of its vertices are adjacent. In this paper we define the concept of well-covered by monochromatic paths graphs which is a variation of well-covered graphs. We consider some classical constructions of graphs: G-join of graphs and duplication of a subset of vertices. We also give necessary and sufficient conditions for well-coveredness by monochromatic paths of these graphs.

Asymptotic behaviour of associated primes of monomial ideals with combinatorial applications

Let  $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $I$ be an ideal of $R$. We say that $I$ satisfies the persistence property if  $mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I^k)subseteq mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I^{k+1})$ for all positive integers $kgeq 1$, which $mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I)$ denotes the set of associated prime ideals of $I$. In this paper, we introduce a class of square-free monomial ideals in the polynomial ring  $R=K[x_1,ld...

Partitioning two-coloured complete multipartite graphs into monochromatic paths

We show that any complete k-partite graph G on n vertices, with k ≥ 3, whose edges are two-coloured, can be covered by two vertex-disjoint monochromatic paths of distinct colours, under the necessary assumption that the largest partition class of G contains at most n/2 vertices. This extends known results for complete and complete bipartite graphs. Secondly, we show that in the same situation, ...

Snakes and Caterpillars in Graceful Graphs

Graceful labelings use a prominent place among difference vertex labelings. In this work we present new families of graceful graphs all of them obtained applying a general substitution result. This substitution is applied here to replace some paths with some trees with a more complex structures. Two caterpillars with the same size are said to be textit{analogous} if thelarger stable sets, in bo...

Remarks on Distance-Balanced Graphs

Distance-balanced graphs are introduced as graphs in which every edge uv has the following property: the number of vertices closer to u than to v is equal to the number of vertices closer to v than to u. Basic properties of these graphs are obtained. In this paper, we study the conditions under which some graph operations produce a distance-balanced graph.

Partitioning edge-2-colored graphs by monochromatic paths and cycles

We present results on partitioning the vertices of 2-edge-colored graphs into monochromatic paths and cycles. We prove asymptotically the two-color case of a conjecture of Sárközy: the vertex set of every 2-edge-colored graph can be partitioned into at most 2α(G) monochromatic cycles, where α(G) denotes the independence number of G. Another direction, emerged recently from a conjecture of Schel...
