چکیده

A graph G = (V,E) is said to be 6-mixed-connected if G−U−D is connected for all sets U ⊆ V and D ⊆ E which satisfy 2|U | + |D| ≤ 5. In this note we prove that 6-mixed-connected graphs are (redundantly globally) rigid in the plane. This improves on a previous result of Lovász and Yemini.

On the edge-connectivity of C_4-free graphs

Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ and minimum degree $delta(G)$.The edge-connectivity $lambda(G)$ of $G$ is the minimum numberof edges whose removal renders $G$ disconnected. It is well-known that$lambda(G) leq delta(G)$,and if $lambda(G)=delta(G)$, then$G$ is said to be maximally edge-connected. A classical resultby Chartrand gives the sufficient condition $delta(G) geq frac{n-1}{2}$fo...

A note on connectivity and lambda-modified Wiener index

In theoretical chemistry, -modified Wiener index is a graph invariant topological index to analyze the chemical properties of molecular structure. In this note, we determine the minimum -modified Wiener index of graph with fixed connectivity or edge-connectivity. Our results also present the sufficient and necessary condition for reaching the lower bound.

Generic Global Rigidity

Suppose a finite configuration of labeled points p = (p1, . . . , pn) inEd is given along with certain pairs of those points determined by a graph G such that the coordinates of the points of p are generic, i.e., algebraically independent over the integers. If another corresponding configuration q = (q1, . . . , qn) in Ed is given such that the corresponding edges of G for p and q have the same...

Generic global rigidity of body-bar frameworks

A basic geometric question is to determine when a given framework G(p) is globally rigid in Euclidean space Rd, where G is a finite graph and p is a configuration of points corresponding to the vertices of G. G(p) is globally rigid in Rd if for any other configuration q for G such that the edge lengths of G(q) are the same as the corresponding edge lengths of G(p), then p is congruent to q. A f...
