Cyclically Orientable Graphs

چکیده

Barot, Geiss and Zelevinsky define a notion of a “cyclically orientable graph” and use it to devise a test for whether a cluster algebra is of finite type. Barot, Geiss and Zelivinsky’s work leaves open the question of giving an efficient characterization of cyclically orientable graphs. In this paper, we give a simple recursive description of cyclically orientable graphs, and use this to give an O(n) algorithm to test whether a graph on n vertices is cyclically orientable. Shortly after writing this paper, I learned that most of its results had been obtained independently by Gurvich [2]; I am placing this paper on the arXiv to spread knowledge of these results.

On cyclically orientable graphs

Graph G is called cyclically orientable (CO) if it admits an orientation in which every simple chordless cycle is cyclically oriented. This family of graphs was introduced by Barot, Geiss, and Zelevinsky in their paper “Cluster algebras of finite type and positive symmetrizable matrices”, J. London Math. Soc. 73 Part 3 (2006), 545-564. The authors obtained several nice characterizations of CO-g...

Polynomial enumeration of chordless cycles on cyclically orientable graphs

In a finite undirected simple graph, a chordless cycle is an induced subgraph which is a cycle. A graph is called cyclically orientable if it admits an orientation in which every chordless cycle is cyclically oriented. We propose an algorithm to enumerate all chordless cycles of such a graph. Compared to other similar algorithms, the proposed algorithm have the advantage of finding each chordle...

GROUP PRESENTATIONS CORRESPONDING TO SPINES OF 3 - MANIFOLDS . Ill

Continuing after the previous papers of this series, attention is devoted to RR-systems having two towns (i.e., to compact 3-manifolds with spines corresponding to group presentations having two generators). An interesting kind of symmetry is noted and then used to derive some useful results. Specifically, the following theorems are proved: Theorem 1. Let tf> be a group presentation correspondi...

How to Eliminate Crossings by Adding Handles or Crosscaps

Let c k = cr k (G) denote the minimum number of edge crossings when a graph G is drawn on an orientable surface of genus k. The (orientable) crossing sequence c 0 ; c 1 ; c 2 ; : : : encodes the trade-oo between adding handles and decreasing crossings. We focus on sequences of the type c 0 > c 1 > c 2 = 0; equivalently, we study the planar and toroidal crossing number of doubly-toroidal graphs....

1-perfectly orientable K4-minor-free and outerplanar graphs

A graph G is said to be 1-perfectly orientable if it has an orientation D such that for every vertex v ∈ V (G), the out-neighborhood of v in D is a clique in G. We characterize the class of 1-perfectly orientable K4-minor-free graphs. As a consequence we obtain a characterization of 1-perfectly orientable outerplanar graphs.
