چکیده

We prove that, for every positive integer k, there is an integer N such that every 3-connected graph with at least N vertices has a minor isomorphic to the k-spoke wheel or K3,k; and that every internally 4-connected graph with at least N vertices has a minor isomorphic to the 2k-spoke double wheel, the k-rung circular ladder, the k-rung Möbius ladder, or K4,k. We also prove an analogous result for infinite graphs.

TOTAL DOMINATION POLYNOMIAL OF GRAPHS FROM PRIMARY SUBGRAPHS

Let $G = (V, E)$ be a simple graph of order $n$. The total dominating set is a subset $D$ of $V$ that every vertex of $V$ is adjacent to some vertices of $D$. The total domination number of $G$ is equal to minimum cardinality of total dominating set in $G$ and denoted by $gamma_t(G)$. The total domination polynomial of $G$ is the polynomial $D_t(G,x)=sum d_t(G,i)$, where $d_t(G,i)$ is the numbe...

Distinct edge geodetic decomposition in graphs

Let G=(V,E) be a simple connected graph of order p and size q. A decomposition of a graph G is a collection π of edge-disjoint subgraphs G_1,G_2,…,G_n of G such that every edge of G belongs to exactly one G_i,(1≤i ≤n). The decomposition 〖π={G〗_1,G_2,…,G_n} of a connected graph G is said to be a distinct edge geodetic decomposition if g_1 (G_i )≠g_1 (G_j ),(1≤i≠j≤n). The maximum cardinality of π...

Series-parallel subgraphs of planar graphs

In this paper we show that every 3-connected (3-edge-connected) planar graph contains a 2-connected (respectively, 2-edge-connected) spanning partial 2-tree (seriesparallel) graph. In contrast, a recent result by [4] implies that not all 3-connected graphs contain 2-edge-connected series-parallel spanning subgraphs.

Generating 3-vertex connected spanning subgraphs

In this paper we present an algorithm to generate all minimal 3-vertex connected spanning subgraphs of an undirected graph with n vertices and m edges in incremental polynomial time, i.e., for every K we can generate K (or all) minimal 3-vertex connected spanning subgraphs of a given graph in O(K2log(K)m2 +K2m3) time, where n and m are the number of vertices and edges of the input graph, respec...
