On a Spanning Tree with Specified Leaves
نویسندگان
چکیده
Let k ≥ 2 be an integer. We show that if G is a (k + 1)-connected graph and each pair of nonadjacent vertices in G has degree sum at least |G| + 1, then for each subset S of V (G) with |S| = k, G has a spanning tree such that S is the set of endvertices. This result generalizes Ore’s theorem which guarantees the existence of a Hamilton path connecting any two vertices.

SOLVING A STEP FIXED CHARGE TRANSPORTATION PROBLEM BY A SPANNING TREE-BASED MEMETIC ALGORITHM
In this paper, we consider the step fixed-charge transportation problem (FCTP) in which a step fixed cost, sometimes called a setup cost, is incurred if another related variable assumes a nonzero value. In order to solve the problem, two metaheuristic, a spanning tree-based genetic algorithm (GA) and a spanning tree-based memetic algorithm (MA), are developed for this NP-hard problem. For compa...
متن کاملA Metaheuristic Algorithm for the Minimum Routing Cost Spanning Tree Problem
The routing cost of a spanning tree in a weighted and connected graph is defined as the total length of paths between all pairs of vertices. The objective of the minimum routing cost spanning tree problem is to find a spanning tree such that its routing cost is minimum. This is an NP-Hard problem that we present a GRASP with path-relinking metaheuristic algorithm for it. GRASP is a multi-start ...
متن کاملGraph-TSP from Steiner Cycles
We present an approach for the traveling salesman problem with graph metric based on Steiner cycles. A Steiner cycle is a cycle that is required to contain some specified subset of vertices. For a graph G, if we can find a spanning tree T and a simple cycle that contains the vertices with odd-degree in T , then we show how to combine the classic “double spanning tree” algorithm with Christofide...
متن کاملCounting the number of spanning trees of graphs
A spanning tree of graph G is a spanning subgraph of G that is a tree. In this paper, we focus our attention on (n,m) graphs, where m = n, n + 1, n + 2, n+3 and n + 4. We also determine some coefficients of the Laplacian characteristic polynomial of fullerene graphs.
متن کاملSpanning trees whose stems have at most k leaves
Let T be a tree. A vertex of T with degree one is called a leaf, and the set of leaves of T is denoted by Leaf(T ). The subtree T − Leaf(T ) of T is called the stem of T and denoted by Stem(T ). A spanning tree with specified stem was first considered in [3]. A tree whose maximum degree at most k is called a k-tree. Similarly, a stem whose maximum degree at most k in it is called a k-stem, and ...
متن کاملA Stock Market Filtering Model Based on Minimum Spanning Tree in Financial Networks
There have been several efforts in the literature to extract as much information as possible from the financial networks. Most of the research has been concerned about the hierarchical structures, clustering, topology and also the behavior of the market network; but not a notable work on the network filtration exists. This paper proposes a stock market filtering model using the correlation - ba...
