Non-chordal graphs having integral-root chromatic polynomials II
It is known that the chromatic polynomial of any chordal graph has only integer roots. However, there also exist non-chordal graphs whose chromatic polynomials have only integer roots. Dmitriev asked in 1980 if for any integer p¿ 4, there exists a graph with chordless cycles of length p whose chromatic polynomial has only integer roots. This question has been given positive answers by Dong and ...
متن کاملGraphs whose flow polynomials have only integral roots
We show if the flow polynomial of a bridgeless graph G has only integral roots, then G is the dual graph to a planar chordal graph. We also show that for 3-connected cubic graphs, the same conclusion holds under the weaker hypothesis that it has only real flow roots. Expressed in the language of matroid theory, this result says that the cographic matroids with only integral characteristic roots...
متن کاملChromatic Harmonic Indices and Chromatic Harmonic Polynomials of Certain Graphs
In the main this paper introduces the concept of chromatic harmonic polynomials denoted, $H^chi(G,x)$ and chromatic harmonic indices denoted, $H^chi(G)$ of a graph $G$. The new concept is then applied to finding explicit formula for the minimum (maximum) chromatic harmonic polynomials and the minimum (maximum) chromatic harmonic index of certain graphs. It is also applied to split graphs and ce...
متن کاملMORE GRAPHS WHOSE ENERGY EXCEEDS THE NUMBER OF VERTICES
The energy E(G) of a graph G is equal to the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of G. Several classes of graphs are known that satisfy the condition E(G) > n , where n is the number of vertices. We now show that the same property holds for (i) biregular graphs of degree a b , with q quadrangles, if q<= abn/4 and 5<=a < b = 0 (iii) triregular graphs of degree 1, a, b that are quadran...
متن کاملOn the Roots of Chromatic Polynomials
It is proved that the chromatic polynomial of a connected graph with n vertices and m edges has a root with modulus at least (m&1) (n&2); this bound is best possible for trees and 2-trees (only). It is also proved that the chromatic polynomial of a graph with few triangles that is not a forest has a nonreal root and that there is a graph with n vertices whose chromatic polynomial has a root wit...
