We study the synchronous and asynchronous automatic structures on the fundamental group of a graph of groups in which each edge group is finite. Up to a natural equivalence relation, the set of biautomatic structures on such a graph product bijects to the product of the sets of biautomatic structures on the vertex groups. The set of automatic structures is much richer. Indeed, it is dense in th...

In this paper, we introduce the concept of the independence graph of a directed 2-complex. We show that the class of diagram groups is closed under graph products over independence graphs of rooted 2-trees. This allows us to show that a diagram group containing all countable diagram groups is a semi-direct product of a partially commutative group and R. Thompson's group F. As a result, we prove...

A homogeneous factorisation of a digraph Γ consists of a partition P = {P1, . . . , Pk} of the arc set AΓ and two vertex-transitive subgroups M 6 G 6 Aut(Γ) such that M fixes each Pi setwise while G leaves P invariant and permutes its parts transitively. Given two graphs Γ1 and Γ2 we consider several ways of taking a product of Γ1 and Γ2 to form a larger graph, namely the direct product, cartes...

There are four standard products of graphs: the direct product, the Cartesian product, the strong product and the lexicographic product. The chromatic number turned out to be an interesting parameter on all these products, except on the Cartesian one. A survey is given on the results concerning the chromatic number of the three relevant products. Some applications of product colorings are also ...

We show that if G is a group and G has a graphproduct decomposition with finitely-generated abelian vertex groups, then G has two canonical decompositions as a graph product of groups: a unique decomposition in which each vertex group is a directly-indecomposable cyclic group, and a unique decomposition in which each vertex group is a finitely-generated abelian group and the graph satisfies the...

In this paper we construct a free resolution for a free partially commutative monoid and with its help prove the Husainov’s Conjecture. We follow the ideas of D. Cohen who built in [3] a resolution for the so-called graph product of groups, given resolutions for factors. The presentation of the graph product with the help of direct and free amalgamated products played the leading role at that. ...

Fault tolerance and transmission delay of networks are important concepts in network design. The notions are strongly related to connectivity and diameter of a graph, and have been studied by many authors. Wide diameter of a graph combines studying connectivity with the diameter of a graph. Diameter with width k of a graph G is defined as the minimum integer d for which there exist at least k i...

selection of appropriate strategies is one of the important principles to achieve profitability in the business models. one of the most important of these strategies, is use of appropriate pricing strategies in order to have the correct and satisfy product pricing process, the factors that affect pricing should be identify and control. plc as organizational factors affecting group is of the mai...

let $r$ be an associative ring with identity and $z^*(r)$ be its set of non-zero zero divisors.  the zero-divisor graph of $r$, denoted by $gamma(r)$, is the graph whose vertices are the non-zero  zero-divisors of  $r$, and two distinct vertices $r$ and $s$ are adjacent if and only if $rs=0$ or $sr=0$.  in this paper, we bring some results about undirected zero-divisor graph of a monoid ring ov...

A signed graph is a simple graph where each edge receives a sign positive or negative. Such graphs are mainly used in social sciences where individuals represent vertices friendly relation between them as a positive edge and enmity as a negative edge. In signed graphs, we define these relationships (edges) as of friendship ("+" edge) or hostility ("-" edge). A 2-path product signed graph [Formu...
