Exploration of Constantly Connected Dynamic Graphs Based on Cactuses
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the problem of exploration by a mobile entity (agent) of a class of dynamic networks, namely constantly connected dynamic graphs. This problem has already been studied in the case where the agent knows the dynamics of the graph and the underlying graph is a ring of n vertices [5]. In this paper, we consider the same problem and we suppose that the underlying graph is a cactus graph (a connected graph in which any two simple cycles have at most one vertex in common). We propose an algorithm that allows the agent to explore these dynamic graphs in at most 2 √ n time units. We show that the lower bound of the algorithm is 2 √ n time units.

A Note on the Area Requirement of Euclidean Greedy Embeddings of Christmas Cactus Graphs
An Euclidean greedy embedding of a graph is a straight-line embedding in the plane, such that for every pair of vertices s and t, the vertex s has a neighbor v with smaller distance to t than s. This drawing style is motivated by greedy geometric routing in wireless sensor networks. A Christmas cactus is a connected graph in which every two simple cycles have at most one vertex in common and in...

Among all connected cactuses with n vertices we find a unique graph whose largest eigenvalue (index, for short) is maximal.
متن کاملMatching Integral Graphs of Small Order
In this paper, we study matching integral graphs of small order. A graph is called matching integral if the zeros of its matching polynomial are all integers. Matching integral graphs were first studied by Akbari, Khalashi, etc. They characterized all traceable graphs which are matching integral. They studied matching integral regular graphs. Furthermore, it has been shown that there is no matc...
متن کاملSome results on vertex-edge Wiener polynomials and indices of graphs
The vertex-edge Wiener polynomials of a simple connected graph are defined based on the distances between vertices and edges of that graph. The first derivative of these polynomials at one are called the vertex-edge Wiener indices. In this paper, we express some basic properties of the first and second vertex-edge Wiener polynomials of simple connected graphs and compare the first and second ve...
متن کاملA Class of Reflexive Cactuses with Four Cycles
A simple graph is reflexive if its second largest eigenvalue λ2 is less than or equal to 2. A graph is a cactus, or a treelike graph, if any pair of its cycles (circuits) has at most one common vertex. For a lot of cactuses the property λ2 ≤ 2 can be tested by identifying and deleting a single cut-vetex (Theorem 1). if this theorem cannot be applied to a connected reflexive cactus and if all it...
