چکیده

We show that for every integer k ≥ 2 and every k graphs G1, G2, . . . , Gk, there exists a hull graph with k hull vertices v1, v2, . . . , vk such that link L(vi) = Gi for 1 ≤ i ≤ k. Moreover, every pair a, b of integers with 2 ≤ a ≤ b is realizable as the hull number and geodetic number (or upper geodetic number) of a hull graph. We also show that every pair a, b of integers with a ≥ 2 and b ≥ 0 is realizable as the hull number and forcing geodetic number of a hull graph.

Solis Graphs and Uniquely Metric Basis Graphs

A set $Wsubset V (G)$ is called a resolving set, if for every two distinct vertices $u, v in V (G)$ there exists $win W$ such that $d(u,w) not = d(v,w)$, where $d(x, y)$ is the distance between the vertices $x$ and $y$. A resolving set for $G$ with minimum cardinality is called a metric basis. A graph with a unique metric basis is called a uniquely dimensional graph. In this paper, we establish...

On the geodetic and the hull numbers in strong product graphs

A set S of vertices of a connected graph G is convex, if for any pair of vertices u, v ∈ S , every shortest path joining u and v is contained in S . The convex hull CH(S ) of a set of vertices S is defined as the smallest convex set in G containing S . The set S is geodetic, if every vertex of G lies on some shortest path joining two vertices in S, and it is said to be a hull set if its convex ...

Hypo-efficient domination and hypo-unique domination

For a graph $G$ let $gamma (G)$ be its domination number. We define a graph G to be (i) a hypo-efficient domination graph (or a hypo-$mathcal{ED}$ graph) if $G$ has no efficient dominating set (EDS) but every graph formed by removing a single vertex from $G$ has at least one EDS, and (ii) a hypo-unique domination graph (a hypo-$mathcal{UD}$ graph) if $G$ has at least two minimum dominating sets...

Polynomial Time Algorithms for Computing a Minimum Hull Set in Distance-Hereditary and Chordal Graphs

We give linear and polynomial time algorithms for computing a minimum hull-set in distance-hereditary and chordal graphs respectively. Prior to our result a polynomial time algorithm was only known for sub-classes of considered graph classes. Our techniques allow us to give at the same time a linear time algorithm for computing a minimum geodetic set in distancehereditary graphs.

Diameter Two Graphs of Minimum Order with Given Degree Set

The degree set of a graph is the set of its degrees. Kapoor et al. [Degree sets for graphs, Fund. Math. 95 (1977) 189-194] proved that for every set of positive integers, there exists a graph of diameter at most two and radius one with that degree set. Furthermore, the minimum order of such a graph is determined. A graph is 2-self- centered if its radius and diameter are two. In this paper for ...
