The minimum restricted edge-connected graph and the minimum size of graphs with a given edge–degree

Diameter Two Graphs of Minimum Order with Given Degree Set

The degree set of a graph is the set of its degrees. Kapoor et al. [Degree sets for graphs, Fund. Math. 95 (1977) 189-194] proved that for every set of positive integers, there exists a graph of diameter at most two and radius one with that degree set. Furthermore, the minimum order of such a graph is determined. A graph is 2-self- centered if its radius and diameter are two. In this paper for ...

Minimum Weight 2-Edge-Connected Spanning Subgraphs in Planar Graphs

We present a linear time algorithm exactly solving the 2-edge connected spanning subgraph (2-ECSS) problem in a graph of bounded treewidth. Using this with Klein’s diameter reduction technique [15], we find a linear time PTAS for the problem in unweighted planar graphs, and the first PTAS for the problem in weighted planar graphs.

The Minimum Matching Energy of Bicyclic Graphs with given Girth

The matching energy of a graph was introduced by Gutman and Wagner in 2012 and defined as the sum of the absolute values of zeros of its matching polynomial. Let θ(r, s, t) be the graph obtained by fusing two triples of pendant vertices of three paths Pr+2, Ps+2 and Pt+2 to two vertices. The graph obtained by identifying the center of the star Sn−g with the degree 3 vertex u of θ(1, g−3, 1) is ...
