The Overfullness of Graphs with Small Minimum Degree and Large Maximum Degree

چکیده
Given a simple graph $G$, denote by $\Delta(G)$, $\delta(G)$, and $\chi'(G)$ the maximum degree, minimum chromatic index of respectively. We say $G$ is $\Delta$-critical if $\chi'(G)=\Delta(G)+1$ $\chi'(H)\le \Delta(G)$ for every proper subgraph $H$ overfull $|E(G)|>\Delta(G) \lfloor |V(G)|/2 \rfloor$. Since matching in can have size at most $\lfloor \rfloor$, it follows that $\chi'(G) = \Delta(G) +1$ overfull. Conversely, let be graph. The well known conjecture Chetwynd Hilton asserts provided $\Delta(G) > |V(G)|/3$. In this paper, we show any - 7\delta(G)/4\ge (3|V(G)|-17)/4$.

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 ...
متن کاملk-forested choosability of graphs with bounded maximum average degree
A proper vertex coloring of a simple graph is $k$-forested if the graph induced by the vertices of any two color classes is a forest with maximum degree less than $k$. A graph is $k$-forested $q$-choosable if for a given list of $q$ colors associated with each vertex $v$, there exists a $k$-forested coloring of $G$ such that each vertex receives a color from its own list. In this paper, we prov...
متن کاملCrossing-critical graphs with large maximum degree
A conjecture of Richter and Salazar about graphs that are critical for a fixed crossing number k is that they have bounded bandwidth. A weaker well-known conjecture is that their maximum degree is bounded in terms of k. In this note we disprove these conjectures for every k ≥ 171, by providing examples of k-crossing-critical graphs with arbitrarily large maximum degree. A graph is k-crossing-cr...
متن کاملAcyclic 6-coloring of graphs with maximum degree 5 and small maximum average degree
A k-colouring of a graph G is a mapping c from the set of vertices of G to the set {1, . . . , k} of colours such that adjacent vertices receive distinct colours. Such a k-colouring is called acyclic, if for every two distinct colours i and j, the subgraph induced by all the edges linking a vertex coloured with i and a vertex coloured with j is acyclic. In other words, every cycle in G has at l...
متن کاملH-Free Graphs of Large Minimum Degree
We prove the following extension of an old result of Andrásfai, Erdős and Sós. For every fixed graph H with chromatic number r+1 ≥ 3, and for every fixed > 0, there are n0 = n0(H, ) and ρ = ρ(H) > 0, such that the following holds. Let G be an H-free graph on n > n0 vertices with minimum degree at least ( 1 − 1 r−1/3 + ) n. Then one can delete at most n2−ρ edges to make G r-colorable.
