Determining Edge Expansion and Other Connectivity Measures of Graphs of Bounded Genus
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we give the first polynomial-time algorithm for determining the edge expansion for a graph of fixed orientable genus. We show that for a multigraph G with m edges and orientable genus g, the edge expansion of G can be determined in time m. We show that the same is true for various other similar measures of edge connectivity.

On the edge-connectivity of C_4-free graphs
Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ and minimum degree $delta(G)$.The edge-connectivity $lambda(G)$ of $G$ is the minimum numberof edges whose removal renders $G$ disconnected. It is well-known that$lambda(G) leq delta(G)$,and if $lambda(G)=delta(G)$, then$G$ is said to be maximally edge-connected. A classical resultby Chartrand gives the sufficient condition $delta(G) geq frac{n-1}{2}$fo...
متن کاملSufficient 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...
متن کاملExcluding Graphs as Immersions in Surface Embedded Graphs
We prove a structural characterization of graphs that forbid a fixed graph H as an immersion and can be embedded in a surface of Eüler genus γ. In particular, we prove that a graph G that excludes some connected graph H as an immersion and is embedded in a surface of Eüler genus γ has either “small” treewidth (bounded by a function of H and γ) or “small” edge connectivity (bounded by the maximu...
متن کاملPolynomial-Time Approximation Schemes
We present the first polynomial-time approximation schemes (PTASes) for the following subset-connectivity problems in edge-weighted graphs of bounded genus: Steiner tree, low-connectivity survivable-network design, and subset TSP. The schemes run in O(n log n) time for graphs embedded on both orientable and nonorientable surfaces. This work generalizes the PTAS frameworks of Borradaile, Klein, ...
متن کاملIncidence cuts and connectivity in fuzzy incidence graphs
Fuzzy incidence graphs can be used as models for nondeterministic interconnection networks having extra node-edgerelationships. For example, ramps in a highway system may be modeled as a fuzzy incidence graph so that unexpectedflow between cities and highways can be effectively studied and controlled. Like node and edge connectivity in graphs,node connectivity and arc connectivity in fuzzy inci...
