The HLA D/DR region of the human major histocompatibility complex encodes a family of highly polymorphic, human "Ia-like" molecules that function as genetic restriction elements in a variety of immune phenomena (1, 2). Correlations have been demonstrated between disease susceptibility and particular HLA D/DR antigens (1, 3, 4). Recent evidence (5-7) has demonstrated a considerable heterogeneity...

$n$-Array Jacobson graphs

We generalize the notion of Jacobson graphs into $n$-array columns called $n$-array Jacobson graphs and determine their connectivities and diameters. Also, we will study forbidden structures of these graphs and determine when an $n$-array Jacobson graph is planar, outer planar, projective, perfect or domination perfect.
