Isomorphic bisections of cubic graphs

چکیده
Graph partitioning, or the dividing of a graph into two more parts based on certain conditions, arises naturally throughout discrete mathematics, and problems this kind have been studied extensively. In 1990s, Ando conjectured that vertices every cubic can be partitioned induce isomorphic subgraphs. Using probabilistic methods together with delicate recolouring arguments, we prove Ando's conjecture for large connected graphs.

On isomorphic linear partitions in cubic graphs
A linear forest is a graph that connected components are chordless paths. A linear partition of a graph G is a partition of its edge set into linear forests and la(G) is the minimum number of linear forests in a linear partition. It is well known that la(G) = 2 when G is a cubic graph and Wormald [17] conjectured that if |V (G)| ≡ 0 (mod 4), then it is always possible to find a linear partition...
متن کاملBisections of graphs
A bisection of a graph is a bipartition of its vertex set in which the number of vertices in the two parts differ by at most 1, and its size is the number of edges which go across the two parts. In this paper, motivated by several questions and conjectures of Bollobás and Scott, we study maximum bisections of graphs. First, we extend the classical Edwards bound on maximum cuts to bisections. A ...
متن کاملColourings of cubic graphs inducing isomorphic monochromatic subgraphs
A k–bisection of a bridgeless cubic graph G is a 2–colouring of its vertex set such that the colour classes have the same cardinality and all connected components in the two subgraphs induced by the colour classes (monochromatic components in what follows) have order at most k. Ban and Linial conjectured that every bridgeless cubic graph admits a 2–bisection except for the Petersen graph. A sim...
متن کاملIrreducible pseudo 2-factor isomorphic cubic bipartite graphs
A bipartite graph is pseudo 2–factor isomorphic if all its 2–factors have the same parity of number of circuits. In a previous paper we have proved that pseudo 2–factor isomorphic k–regular bipartite graphs exist only for k ≤ 3, and partially characterized them. In particular we proved that the only essentially 4–edge-connected pseudo 2–factor isomorphic cubic bipartite graph of girth 4 is K3,3...
متن کاملOn judicious bisections of graphs
A bisection of a graph G is a bipartition S1, S2 of V (G) such that −1 ≤ |S1|− |S2| ≤ 1. It is NP-hard to find a bisection S1, S2 of a graph G maximizing e(S1, S2) (respectively, minimizing max{e(S1), e(S2)}), where e(S1, S2) denotes the number of edges of G between S1 and S2, and e(Si) denotes the number of edges of G with both ends in Si. There has been algorithmic work on bisections, but ver...
