A bijection for plane graphs and its applications

چکیده
This paper is concerned with the counting and random sampling of plane graphs (simple planar graphs embedded in the plane). Our main result is a bijection between the class of plane graphs with triangular outer face, and a class of oriented binary trees. The number of edges and vertices of the plane graph can be tracked through the bijection. Consequently, we obtain counting formulas and an efficient random sampling algorithm for rooted plane graphs (with arbitrary outer face) according to the number of edges and vertices. We also obtain a bijective link, via a bijection of Bona, between rooted plane graphs and 1342-avoiding permutations.

On (Semi-) Edge-primality of Graphs
Let $G= (V,E)$ be a $(p,q)$-graph. A bijection $f: Eto{1,2,3,ldots,q }$ is called an edge-prime labeling if for each edge $uv$ in $E$, we have $GCD(f^+(u),f^+(v))=1$ where $f^+(u) = sum_{uwin E} f(uw)$. Moreover, a bijection $f: Eto{1,2,3,ldots,q }$ is called a semi-edge-prime labeling if for each edge $uv$ in $E$, we have $GCD(f^+(u),f^+(v))=1$ or $f^+(u)=f^+(v)$. A graph that admits an ...
متن کاملBinary Labelings for Plane Quadrangulations and their Relatives
Motivated by the bijection between Schnyder labelings of a plane triangulation and partitions of its inner edges into three trees, we look for binary labelings for quadrangulations (whose edges can be partitioned into two trees). Our labeling resembles many of the properties of Schnyder’s one for triangulations: Apart from being in bijection with tree decompositions, paths in these trees allow ...
متن کاملRelationship between Coefficients of Characteristic Polynomial and Matching Polynomial of Regular Graphs and its Applications
ABSTRACT. Suppose G is a graph, A(G) its adjacency matrix and f(G, x)=x^n+a_(n-1)x^(n-1)+... is the characteristic polynomial of G. The matching polynomial of G is defined as M(G, x) = x^n-m(G,1)x^(n-2) + ... where m(G,k) is the number of k-matchings in G. In this paper, we determine the relationship between 2k-th coefficient of characteristic polynomial, a_(2k), and k-th coefficient of matchin...
متن کاملSkolem Odd Difference Mean Graphs
In this paper we define a new labeling called skolem odd difference mean labeling and investigate skolem odd difference meanness of some standard graphs. Let G = (V,E) be a graph with p vertices and q edges. G is said be skolem odd difference mean if there exists a function f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2, 3, . . . , p + 3q − 3} satisfying f is 1−1 and the induced map f : E(G) → {1, 3, 5, . . . , 2q−1} de...
متن کاملGroove Gap Waveguide (GGW) H-plane Horn Antenna and a Method for Its Back lobe Suppression
recently a new structure called groove gap waveguide (GGW) is introduced to implement low loss microwave component devices especially for millimeter wave applications. This paper presents a new type of H-plane horn antenna making use of this new technology in which backward radiation is significantly suppressed by introducing a high impedance surface at the antenna aperture. The high impe...
