چکیده

We prove that for all positive integers t, every nvertex graph with no Kt-subdivision has at most 2 n cliques. We also prove that asymptotically, such graphs contain at most 2n cliques, where o(1) tends to zero as t tends to infinity. This strongly answers a question of D. Wood asking if the number of cliques in n-vertex graphs with no Kt-minor is at most 2 n for some constant c.

Total Roman domination subdivision number in graphs

A {em Roman dominating function} on a graph $G$ is a function $f:V(G)rightarrow {0,1,2}$ satisfying the condition that every vertex $u$ for which $f(u)=0$ is adjacent to at least one vertex $v$ for which $f(v)=2$. A {em total Roman dominating function} is a Roman dominating function with the additional property that the subgraph of $G$ induced by the set of all vertices of positive weight has n...

Exponential Families of Minimally Non-coordinated Graphs

A graph G is coordinated if, for every induced subgraph H of G, the minimum number of colors that can be assigned to the cliques of H in such a way that no two cliques with non-empty intersection receive the same color is equal to the maximum number of cliques of H with a common vertex. In a previous work, coordinated graphs were characterized by minimal forbidden induced subgraphs within some ...

Partial characterizations of coordinated graphs I: line graphs and complements of forests

A graph G is coordinated if the minimum number of colors that can be assigned to the cliques of H in such a way that no two cliques with non-empty intersection receive the same color is equal to the maximum number of cliques of H with a common vertex, for every induced subgraph H of G. Coordinated graphs are a subclass of perfect graphs. The list of minimal forbidden induced subgraphs for the c...

Eternal m-security subdivision numbers in graphs

An eternal $m$-secure set of a graph $G = (V,E)$ is aset $S_0subseteq V$ that can defend against any sequence ofsingle-vertex attacks by means of multiple-guard shifts along theedges of $G$. A suitable placement of the guards is called aneternal $m$-secure set. The eternal $m$-security number$sigma_m(G)$ is the minimum cardinality among all eternal$m$-secure sets in $G$. An edge $uvin E(G)$ is ...

Total perfect codes‎, ‎OO-irredundant and total subdivision in graphs

‎Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a graph‎, ‎$gamma_t(G)$. Let $ooir(G)$ be the total domination and OO-irredundance number of $G$‎, ‎respectively‎. ‎A total dominating set $S$ of $G$ is called a $textit{total perfect code}$ if every vertex in $V(G)$ is adjacent to exactly one vertex of $S$‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we show that if $G$ has a total perfect code‎, ‎then $gamma_t(G)=ooir(G)$‎. ‎As a consequence, ...
