A Note on Correlations in Randomly Oriented Graphs
نویسنده
چکیده
Given a graph G, we consider the model where G is given a random orientation by giving each edge a random direction. It is proven that for a, b, s ∈ V (G), the events {s → a} and {s → b} are positively correlated. This correlation persists, perhaps unexpectedly, also if we first condition on {s 9 t} for any vertex t 6= s. With this conditioning it is also true that {s → b} and {a → t} are negatively correlated. A concept of increasing events in random orientations is defined and a general inequality corresponding to Harris inequality is given. The results are obtained by combining a very useful lemma by Colin McDiarmid which relates random orientations with edge percolation, with results by van den Berg, Häggström, Kahn on correlation inequalities for edge percolation. The results are true also for another model of randomly directed graphs.

A NOTE ON THE COMMUTING GRAPHS OF A CONJUGACY CLASS IN SYMMETRIC GROUPS
The commuting graph of a group is a graph with vertexes set of a subset of a group and two element are adjacent if they commute. The aim of this paper is to obtain the automorphism group of the commuting graph of a conjugacy class in the symmetric groups. The clique number, coloring number, independent number, and diameter of these graphs are also computed.
متن کاملA note on vague graphs
In this paper, we introduce the notions of product vague graph, balanced product vague graph, irregularity and total irregularity of any irregular vague graphs and some results are presented. Also, density and balanced irregular vague graphs are discussed and some of their properties are established. Finally we give an application of vague digraphs.
متن کاملA Note on Tensor Product of Graphs
Let $G$ and $H$ be graphs. The tensor product $Gotimes H$ of $G$ and $H$ has vertex set $V(Gotimes H)=V(G)times V(H)$ and edge set $E(Gotimes H)={(a,b)(c,d)| acin E(G):: and:: bdin E(H)}$. In this paper, some results on this product are obtained by which it is possible to compute the Wiener and Hyper Wiener indices of $K_n otimes G$.
متن کاملNew skew equienergetic oriented graphs
Let $S(G^{sigma})$ be the skew-adjacency matrix of the oriented graph $G^{sigma}$, which is obtained from a simple undirected graph $G$ by assigning an orientation $sigma$ to each of its edges. The skew energy of an oriented graph $G^{sigma}$ is defined as the sum of absolute values of all eigenvalues of $S(G^{sigma})$. Two oriented graphs are said to be skew equienergetic iftheir skew energies...
