چکیده

Consider the maximum length [(k) of a flexicographieally) increasing sequence of vectors in GF(2) k with the property that the sum of the vectors in any consecutive subsequence is nonzero modulo 2. We prove that ~ . 2 k ~<f(k)~<(~+o(1))2 k. A related problem is the following. Suppose the edges of the complete graph K , are labelled by the numbers 1,2 . . . . . (~.). What is the minimum a(n), over all edge labellings, of the maximum length of a simple path with increasing edge labels? We prove that a (n)~< (21 + o(1))n.

Characterization of signed paths and cycles admitting minus dominating function

If G = (V, E, σ) is a finite signed graph, a function f : V → {−1, 0, 1} is a minusdominating function (MDF) of G if f(u) +summation over all vertices v∈N(u) of σ(uv)f(v) ≥ 1 for all u ∈ V . In this paper we characterize signed paths and cycles admitting an MDF.

Snakes and Caterpillars in Graceful Graphs

Graceful labelings use a prominent place among difference vertex labelings. In this work we present new families of graceful graphs all of them obtained applying a general substitution result. This substitution is applied here to replace some paths with some trees with a more complex structures. Two caterpillars with the same size are said to be textit{analogous} if thelarger stable sets, in bo...

New results on upper domatic number of graphs

For a graph $G = (V, E)$, a partition $pi = {V_1,$ $V_2,$ $ldots,$ $V_k}$ of the vertex set $V$ is an textit{upper domatic partition} if $V_i$ dominates $V_j$ or $V_j$ dominates $V_i$ or both for every $V_i, V_j in pi$, whenever $i neq j$. The textit{upper domatic number} $D(G)$ is the maximum order of an upper domatic partition. We study the properties of upper domatic number and propose an up...

Monotone paths in edge-ordered sparse graphs

An edge-ordered graph is an ordered pair (G, f), where G = G(V,E) is a graph and f is a bijective function, f : E(G) → {1, 2, ..., |E(G)|}. f is called an edge ordering of G. A monotone path of length k in (G, f) is a simple path Pk+1 : v1, v2..., vk+1 in G such that either, f((vi, vi+1)) < f((vi+1, vi+2)) or f((vi, vi+1)) > f((vi+1, vi+2)) for i = 1, 2, ..., k − 1. Given an undirected graph G,...

Increasing Paths in Edge-Ordered Graphs: The Hypercube and Random Graph

An edge-ordering of a graph G = (V,E) is a bijection φ : E → {1, 2, . . . , |E|}. Given an edge-ordering, a sequence of edges P = e1, e2, . . . , ek is an increasing path if it is a path in G which satisfies φ(ei) < φ(ej) for all i < j. For a graph G, let f(G) be the largest integer ` such that every edge-ordering of G contains an increasing path of length `. The parameter f(G) was first studie...
