چکیده

We construct an incidence structure using certain points and lines in finite projective spaces. The structural properties of the associated bipartite incidence graphs are analyzed. These n×n bipartite graphs provide constructions of C6-free graphs with Ω(n4/3) edges, C10-free graphs with Ω(n6/5) edges, and Θ(7, 7, 7)-free graphs with Ω(n8/7) edges. Each of these bounds is sharp in order of magnitude.

On the Number of k-Dominating Independent Sets

We study the existence and the number of k-dominating independent sets in certain graph families. While the case k = 1 namely the case of maximal independent sets which is originated from Erdős and Moser is widely investigated, much less is known in general. In this paper we settle the question for trees and prove that the maximum number of kdominating independent sets in n-vertex graphs is bet...

On 2-periodic graphs of a certain graph operator

We deal with the graph operator Pow2 defined to be the complement of the square of a graph: Pow2(G) = Pow2(G). Motivated by one of many open problems formulated in [6] we look for graphs that are 2-periodic with respect to this operator. We describe a class G of bipartite graphs possessing the above mentioned property and prove that for any m,n ≥ 6, the complete bipartite graph Km,n can be deco...

New Examples of Graphs without Small Cycles and of Large Size

For any prime power q ≥ 3, we consider two infinite series of bipartite q–regular edge–transitive graphs of orders 2q and 2q which are induced subgraphs of regular generalized 4–gon and 6–gon, respectively. We compare these two series with two families of graphs,H3(p) andH5(p), p is a prime, constructed recently by Wenger ([26]), which are new examples of extremal graphs without 6– and 10–cycle...

The p-median and p-center Problems on Bipartite Graphs

Let $G$ be a bipartite graph. In this paper we consider the two kind of location problems namely $p$-center and $p$-median problems on bipartite graphs. The $p$-center and $p$-median problems asks to find a subset of vertices of cardinality $p$, so that respectively the maximum and sum of the distances from this set to all other vertices in $G$ is minimized. For each case we present some proper...

Relative non-Normal Graphs of a Subgroup of Finite Groups

Let G be a finite group and H,K be two subgroups of G. We introduce the relative non-normal graph of K with respect to H , denoted by NH,K, which is a bipartite graph with vertex sets HHK and KNK(H) and two vertices x ∈ H HK and y ∈ K NK(H) are adjacent if xy / ∈ H, where HK =Tk∈K Hk and NK(H) = {k ∈ K : Hk = H}. We determined some numerical invariants and state that when this graph is planar or...
