On Lower Bounds for the Matching Number of Subcubic Graphs
We give a complete description of the set of triples (α, β, γ) of real numbers with the following property. There exists a constant K such that αn3 + βn2 + γn1 − K is a lower bound for the matching number ν(G) of every connected subcubic graph G, where ni denotes the number of vertices of degree i for each i.
متن کاملThe lower bound for the number of 1-factors in generalized Petersen graphs
In this paper, we investigate the number of 1-factors of a generalized Petersen graph $P(N,k)$ and get a lower bound for the number of 1-factors of $P(N,k)$ as $k$ is odd, which shows that the number of 1-factors of $P(N,k)$ is exponential in this case and confirms a conjecture due to Lovász and Plummer (Ann. New York Acad. Sci. 576(2006), no. 1, 389-398).
متن کاملAcyclic edge coloring of subcubic graphs
An acyclic edge coloring of a graph is a proper edge coloring such that there are no bichromatic cycles. The acyclic chromatic index of a graph is the minimum number k such that there is an acyclic edge coloring using k colors and is denoted by a(G). From a result of Burnstein it follows that all subcubic graphs are acyclically edge colorable using 5 colors. This result is tight since there are...
متن کاملA lower bound on the chromatic number of Mycielski graphs
In this work we give a new lower bound on the chromatic number of a Mycielski graph Mi. The result exploits a mapping between the coloring problem and a multiprocessor task scheduling problem. The tightness of the bound is proved for i = 1; : : : ; 8. c © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
متن کاملA new lower bound on the independence number of graphs
We propose a new lower bound on the independence number of a graph. We show that our bound compares favorably to recent ones (e.g. [12]). We obtain our bound by using the Bhatia-Davis inequality applied with analytical results (minimum, maximum, expectation and variance) of an algorithm for the vertex cover problem.
