چکیده

We prove that there is no cubic graph with diameter 4 on 40 vertices. This implies that the maximal number of vertices of a (3,4)-graph is 38. ? 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Nonexistence of certain cubic graphs with small diameters

Jorgensen, L.K., Nonexistence of certain cubic graphs with small diameters, Discrete Mathematics 114 (1993) 2655273. We consider the maximum number of vertices in a cubic graph with small diameter. We show that a cubic graph of diameter 4 has at most 40 vertices. (The Moore bound is 46 and graphs with 38 vertices are known.) We also consider bipartite cubic graphs of diameter 5, for which the M...

Line graphs associated to the maximal graph

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. Let $G(R)$ denote the maximal graph associated to $R$, i.e., $G(R)$ is a graph with vertices as the elements of $R$, where two distinct vertices $a$ and $b$ are adjacent if and only if there is a maximal ideal of $R$ containing both. Let $Gamma(R)$ denote the restriction of $G(R)$ to non-unit elements of $R$. In this paper we study the various graphi...

A characterisation of cubic parity graphs

A graph is Zm-well-covered if all maximal independent sets have the same cardinality modulo m. Zm-well-covered graphs generalise well-covered graphs, those in which all independent sets have the same cardinality. Z2-well-covered graphs are also called parity graphs. A characterisation of cubic well-covered graphs was given by Campbell, Ellingham and Royle. Here we extend this to a characterisat...

Cubic Cayley graphs with small diameter

In this paper we apply Pólya’s Theorem to the problem of enumerating Cayley graphs on permutation groups up to isomorphisms induced by conjugacy in the symmetric group. We report the results of a search of all three-regular Cayley graphs on permutation groups of degree at most nine for small diameter graphs. We explore several methods of constructing covering graphs of these Cayley graphs. Exam...

A Review on Domination in Planar Graphs with Small Diameter

Domination and its variations in graphs are now well studied. However, the original domination number of a graph continues to attract attention. Many bounds have been proven and results obtained for special classes of graphs such as cubic graphs and products of graphs. On the other hand, the decision problem to determine the domination number of a graph remains NP-hard even when restricted to c...
