We explore the properties of subgraphs (called Markovian subgraphs) of a decomposable graph under some condition. For a decomposable graph G and a collection γ of its Markovian subgraphs, we show that the set χ(G) of the intersections of all the neighboring cliques of G contains ∪g∈γχ(g). We also show that χ(G) = ∪g∈γχ(g) holds for a certain type of G which we call a maximal Markovian supergrap...

Su, X.-Y., A result on decompositions of regular graphs, Discrete Mathematics 105 (1992) 323-326. We prove that for any connected graph G and any integer r which is a common multiple of the degrees of the vertices in G, there exists a connected, r-regular, and G-decomposable graph H such that x(H) = x(G) and o(H) = w(G), where x and w are the chromatic number and the clique number, respectively...

We introduce the notion of an Eulerian graph being strongly evencycle decomposable, and note that a few basic classes have this property. Our main results are that several fundamental composition operations that preserve the property of being Eulerian also preserve the property of being strongly even-cycle decomposable. As an application, our composition operations easily imply that all Euleria...

An H-magic labeling in a H-decomposable graph G is a bijection f : V (G) ∪ E(G) → {1, 2, ..., p + q} such that for every copy H in the decomposition, ΣνεV(H) f(v) +  ΣeεE(H) f(e) is constant. f is said to be H-E-super magic if f(E(G)) = {1, 2, · · · , q}. A family of subgraphs H1,H2, · · · ,Hh of G is a mixed cycle-decomposition of G if every subgraph Hi is isomorphic to some cycle Ck, for k ≥ ...

An H-magic labeling in a H-decomposable graph G is a bijection f : V (G) ∪ E(G) → {1, 2, ..., p + q} such that for every copy H in the decomposition, ∑νεV (H) f(v) + ∑νεE (H) f(e) is constant. f is said to be H-E-super magic if f(E(G)) = {1, 2, · · · , q}. A family of subgraphs H1,H2, · · · ,Hh of G is a mixed cycle-decomposition of G if every subgraph Hi is isomorphic to some cycle Ck, for k ≥...

A n-vertex graph is said to be decomposable if for any partition (λ1, . . . , λp) of the integer n, there exists a sequence (V1, . . . , Vp) of connected vertex-disjoint subgraphs with |Vi| = λi. The aim of the paper is to study the homeomorphism classes of decomposable trees. More precisely, we show that homeomorphism classes containing decomposable trees with an arbitrarily large minimal dist...

In the present paper the question is studied from three points of vieAv whether to any natural number k _> 2 there exists a complete graph decomposable into k factors with diameters two . The affirmative answer to this question is given and some estimations for the minimal possible number of vertices of such a complete graph are deduced . As a corollary it follows that given k diameters di, d2 ...

For a tree T , the graph X is T -decomposable if there exists a partition of the edge set of X into isomorphic copies of T . In 1963, Ringel conjectured that K2m+1 can be decomposed by any tree with m edges. Graham and Häggkvist conjectured more generally that every 2m-regular graph can be decomposed by any tree with m edges. Fink showed in 1994 that for any directed tree T with m arcs, the dir...
