The interlace polynomial of a graph
Motivated by circle graphs, and the enumeration of Euler circuits, we define a one-variable “interlace polynomial” for any graph. The polynomial satisfies a beautiful and unexpected reduction relation, quite different from the cut and fuse reduction characterizing the Tutte polynomial. It emerges that the interlace graph polynomial may be viewed as a special case of the Martin polynomial of an ...

متن کاملA multivariate interlace polynomial
We define a multivariate polynomial that generalizes several interlace polynomials defined by Arratia, Bollobas and Sorkin on the one hand, and Aigner and van der Holst on the other. We follow the route traced by Sokal, who defined a multivariate generalization of Tutte’s polynomial. We also show that bounded portions of our interlace polynomial can be evaluated in polynomial time for graphs of...
متن کاملOn the Roots of Hosoya Polynomial of a Graph
Let G = (V, E) be a simple graph. Hosoya polynomial of G is d(u,v) H(G, x) = {u,v}V(G)x , where, d(u ,v) denotes the distance between vertices u and v. As is the case with other graph polynomials, such as chromatic, independence and domination polynomial, it is natural to study the roots of Hosoya polynomial of a graph. In this paper we study the roots of Hosoya polynomials of some specific g...
متن کاملOn the Complexity of the Interlace Polynomial
We consider the two-variable interlace polynomial introduced by Arratia, Bollobás and Sorkin (2004). We develop two graph transformations which allow us to derive point-to-point reductions for the interlace polynomial. Exploiting these reductions we obtain new results concerning the computational complexity of evaluating the interlace polynomial at a fixed point. Regarding exact evaluation, we ...
