چکیده

Let f (n) 1⁄4 minf (G H ) : G and H are n-chromatic digraphsg and g(n) 1⁄4 minf (G H ) : G andH are n-chromatic graphs}. We prove that f is bounded if and only if g is bounded. 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 51:

Constructive Quasi-Ramsey Numbers and Tournament Ranking

A constructive lower bound on the quasi-Ramsey numbers and the tournament ranking function was obtained in [S. Poljak, V. Rödl, and J. Spencer, SIAM J. Discrete Math., (1) 1988, pp. 372–376]. We consider the weighted versions of both problems. Our method yields a polynomial time heuristic with guaranteed lower bound for the linear ordering problem.

Intersection graphs associated with semigroup acts

The intersection graph $mathbb{Int}(A)$ of an $S$-act $A$ over a semigroup $S$ is an undirected simple graph whose vertices are non-trivial subacts of $A$, and two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if they have a non-empty intersection. In this paper, we study some graph-theoretic properties of $mathbb{Int}(A)$ in connection to some algebraic properties of $A$. It is proved that the fi...

On directed local chromatic number, shift graphs, and Borsuk-like graphs

We investigate the local chromatic number of shift graphs and prove that it is close to their chromatic number. This implies that the gap between the directed local chromatic number of an oriented graph and the local chromatic number of the underlying undirected graph can be arbitrarily large. We also investigate the minimum possible directed local chromatic number of oriented versions of “topo...

On independent domination numbers of grid and toroidal grid directed graphs

A subset $S$ of vertex set $V(D)$ is an {em indpendent dominating set} of $D$ if $S$ is both an independent and a dominating set of $D$. The {em indpendent domination number}, $i(D)$ is the cardinality of the smallest independent dominating set of $D$. In this paper we calculate the independent domination number of the { em cartesian product} of two {em directed paths} $P_m$ and $P_n$ for arbi...
