Maximum edge-cuts in cubic graphs with large girth and in random cubic graphs
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that for every cubic graph G with sufficiently large girth there exists a probability distribution on edge-cuts of G such that each edge is in a randomly chosen cut with probability at least 0.88672. This implies that G contains an edge-cut of size at least 1.33008n, where n is the number of vertices of G, and has fractional cut covering number at most 1.12776. The lower bound on the size of maximum edge-cut also applies to random cubic graphs. Specifically, a random n-vertex cubic graph a.a.s. contains an edge cut of size 1.33008n.

Fractional colorings of cubic graphs with large girth
We show that every (sub)cubic n-vertex graph with sufficiently large girth has fractional chromatic number at most 2.2978 which implies that it contains an independent set of size at least 0.4352n. Our bound on the independence number is valid to random cubic graphs as well as it improves existing lower bounds on the maximum cut in cubic graphs with large girth.
متن کاملOn Edge-Decomposition of Cubic Graphs into Copies of the Double-Star with Four Edges
A tree containing exactly two non-pendant vertices is called a double-star. Let $k_1$ and $k_2$ be two positive integers. The double-star with degree sequence $(k_1+1, k_2+1, 1, ldots, 1)$ is denoted by $S_{k_1, k_2}$. It is known that a cubic graph has an $S_{1,1}$-decomposition if and only if it contains a perfect matching. In this paper, we study the $S_{1,2}$-decomposit...
متن کاملGraph structural properties of non-Yutsis graphs allowing fast recognition
Yutsis graphs are connected simple graphs which can be partitioned into two vertex-induced trees. Cubic Yutsis graphs were introduced by Jaeger as cubic dual Hamiltonian graphs, and these are our main focus. Cubic Yutsis graphs also appear in the context of the quantum theory of angular momenta, where they are used to generate summation formulae for general recoupling coefficients. Large Yutsis...
متن کاملON THE EDGE COVER POLYNOMIAL OF CERTAIN GRAPHS
Let $G$ be a simple graph of order $n$ and size $m$.The edge covering of $G$ is a set of edges such that every vertex of $G$ is incident to at least one edge of the set. The edge cover polynomial of $G$ is the polynomial$E(G,x)=sum_{i=rho(G)}^{m} e(G,i) x^{i}$,where $e(G,i)$ is the number of edge coverings of $G$ of size $i$, and$rho(G)$ is the edge covering number of $G$. In this paper we stud...
متن کاملIrreducible pseudo 2-factor isomorphic cubic bipartite graphs
A bipartite graph is pseudo 2–factor isomorphic if all its 2–factors have the same parity of number of circuits. In a previous paper we have proved that pseudo 2–factor isomorphic k–regular bipartite graphs exist only for k ≤ 3, and partially characterized them. In particular we proved that the only essentially 4–edge-connected pseudo 2–factor isomorphic cubic bipartite graph of girth 4 is K3,3...
