Wheels in planar graphs and Hajós graphs

نویسندگان

چکیده

It was conjectured by Hajós that graphs containing no K 5 -subdivision are 4-colorable. Previous results show any possible minimum counterexample to Hajós' conjecture, called graph, is 4-connected but not 5-connected. In this paper, we if a graph admits 4-cut or 5-cut with planar side then the must be small contains special wheel. This step in our effort reduce conjecture Four Color Theorem.

The complexity of the Hajós calculus for planar graphs

The planar Hajós calculus is the Hajós calculus with the restriction that all the graphs that appear in the construction (including a final graph) must be planar. We prove that the planar Hajós calculus is polynomially bounded iff the Hajós calculus is polynomially bounded.

Hajós' conjecture for line graphs

We prove that, if a graph G (without multiple edges) has maximum degree d and edge-chromatic number d + 1, then G contains two distinct vertices x, y and a collection of d pairwise edge-disjoint paths between x and y. In particular, the line graph of G satisfies Hajós’ conjecture. © 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Planar Graphs as VPG-Graphs

A graph is Bk-VPG when it has an intersection representation by paths in a rectangular grid with at most k bends (turns). It is known that all planar graphs are B3-VPG and this was conjectured to be tight. We disprove this conjecture by showing that all planar graphs are B2-VPG. We also show that the 4-connected planar graphs constitute a subclass of the intersection graphs of Z-shapes (i.e., a...

Convex drawings of hierarchical planar graphs and clustered planar graphs

Hierarchical graphs are graphs with layering structures; clustered graphs are graphs with recursive clustering structures. Both have applications in VLSI design, CASE tools, software visualisation and visualisation of social networks and biological networks. Straight-line drawing algorithms for hierarchical graphs and clustered graphs have been presented in [P. Eades, Q. Feng, X. Lin and H. Nag...

Balanced Cayley graphs and balanced planar graphs

A balanced graph is a bipartite graph with no induced circuit of length 2 (mod 4). These graphs arise in linear programming. We focus on graph-algebraic properties of balanced graphs to prove a complete classification of balanced Cayley graphs on abelian groups. Moreover, in Section 5 of this paper, we prove that there is no cubic balanced planar graph. Finally, some remarkable conjectures for ...
