Steiner Decomposition Number of Complete ռ —Sun graph

The forcing Steiner number of a graph

For a connected graph G = (V,E), a set W ⊆ V is called a Steiner set of G if every vertex of G is contained in a Steiner W -tree of G. The Steiner number s(G) of G is the minimum cardinality of its Steiner sets and any Steiner set of cardinality s(G) is a minimum Steiner set of G. For a minimum Steiner set W of G, a subset T ⊆ W is called a forcing subset for W if W is the unique minimum Steine...

The Steiner diameter of a graph

‎The Steiner distance of a graph‎, ‎introduced by Chartrand‎, ‎Oellermann‎, ‎Tian and Zou in 1989‎, ‎is a natural generalization of the‎ ‎concept of classical graph distance‎. ‎For a connected graph $G$ of‎ ‎order at least $2$ and $Ssubseteq V(G)$‎, ‎the Steiner‎ ‎distance $d(S)$ among the vertices of $S$ is the minimum size among‎ ‎all connected subgraphs whose vertex sets contain $S$‎. ‎Let $...

Graph Clustering by Hierarchical Singular Value Decomposition with Selectable Range for Number of Clusters Members

Graphs have so many applications in real world problems. When we deal with huge volume of data, analyzing data is difficult or sometimes impossible. In big data problems, clustering data is a useful tool for data analysis. Singular value decomposition(SVD) is one of the best algorithms for clustering graph but we do not have any choice to select the number of clusters and the number of members ...

Uniform Number of a Graph

We introduce the notion of uniform number of a graph. The  uniform number of a connected graph $G$ is the least cardinality of a nonempty subset $M$ of the vertex set of $G$ for which the function $f_M: M^crightarrow mathcal{P}(X) - {emptyset}$ defined as $f_M(x) = {D(x, y): y in M}$ is a constant function, where $D(x, y)$ is the detour distance between $x$ and $y$ in $G$ and $mathcal{P}(X)$ ...
