Recently, the authors introduced a game invariant of graphs, called connectivity. In this paper, we investigate edge version invariant, edge-connectivity, by introducing new combinatorial on graph, graph edge-cutting game. The is one generalizations classical game, named Shannon switching As an analog study have complete characterization graphs with edge-connectivity infinity in terms number ed...

Let R be a commutative ring with $Z(R)$ its set of zero-divisors. In this paper, we study the total graph of $R$, denoted by $T(Gamma(R))$. It is the (undirected) graph with all elements of R as vertices, and for distinct $x, yin R$, the vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $x + yinZ(R)$. We study the chromatic number and edge connectivity of this graph.

The general sum-connectivity index of a graph $G$ is defined as $chi_{alpha}(G)= sum_{uvin E(G)} (d_u + d_{v})^{alpha}$ where $d_{u}$ is degree of the vertex $uin V(G)$, $alpha$ is a real number different from $0$ and $uv$ is the edge connecting the vertices $u,v$. In this note, the problem of characterizing the graphs having extremum $chi_{alpha}$ values from a certain collection of polyomino ...

k-Restricted edge connectivity is an important parameter in measuring the reliability and fault tolerance of large interconnection networks. In this paper we present two families of graphs similar with the networks proposed by Chen et al. [Y.C. Chen, J.J.M. Tan, L.H. Hsu, S.S. Kao, Super-connectivity and super edge-connectivity for some interconnection networks, Applied Mathematics and Computat...

Connectivity and edge-connectivity of a graph measure the difficulty of breaking the graph apart, but they are very much affected by local aspects like vertex degree. Average connectivity (and analogously, average edge-connectivity) has been introduced to give a more refined measure of the global “amount” of connectivity. In this paper, we prove a relationship between the average connectivity a...

This paper discusses the poor performance of the Canny edge detector at junctions formed by three edges, where connectivity is usually destroyed in an arbitrary way. This problem is shown to be due to the non-maximal suppression algorithm, used to identify points of inflection in the grey-level surface. A method to overcome the problem, based on local evidence in the gradient vector, is reporte...

The problem in which the object is to add a minimum weight set of edges to a graph so as to satisfy a given condition is called the augmentation problem. This problem has a wide variety [3-5, 10, 11, 14-201. If such a given condition is concerned with the vertexor edge-connectivity of a graph then the problem is referred to as the (vertexor edge-) connectivity augmentation problem. Frank and Ch...

An edge cut W of a connected graph G is a k-restricted edge cut if G−W is disconnected, and every component of G −W has at least k vertices. The k-restricted edge connectivity is defined as the minimum cardinality over all k-restricted edge cuts. A permutation graph is obtained by taking two disjoint copies of a graph and adding a perfect matching between the two copies. The k-restricted edge c...
