چکیده

Let G1 and G2 be graphs of order n with maximum degree ∆1 and ∆2, respectively. G1 and G2 are said to pack if there exist injective mappings of the vertex sets into [n], such that the images of the edge sets do not intersect. Sauer and Spencer showed that if ∆1∆2 < n 2 , then G1 and G2 pack. We extend this result by showing that if ∆1∆2 ≤ n2 , then G1 and G2 do not pack if and only if one of G1 or G2 is a perfect matching and the other either is Kn 2 , n 2 with n2 odd or contains Kn 2 +1 .

Extremal Theorems for Degree Sequence Packing and the Two-Color Discrete Tomography Problem

A sequence π = (d1, . . . , dn) is graphic if there is a simple graph G with vertex set {v1, . . . , vn} such that the degree of vi is di. We say that graphic sequences π1 = (d (1) 1 , . . . , d (1) n ) and π2 = (d (2) 1 , . . . , d (2) n ) pack if there exist edge-disjoint n-vertex graphs G1 and G2 such that for j ∈ {1, 2}, dGj (vi) = d (j) i for all i ∈ {1, . . . , n}. Here, we prove several ...

The Signless Laplacian Estrada Index of Unicyclic Graphs

‎For a simple graph $G$‎, ‎the signless Laplacian Estrada index is defined as $SLEE(G)=sum^{n}_{i=1}e^{q^{}_i}$‎, ‎where $q^{}_1‎, ‎q^{}_2‎, ‎dots‎, ‎q^{}_n$ are the eigenvalues of the signless Laplacian matrix of $G$‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we first characterize the unicyclic graphs with the first two largest and smallest $SLEE$'s and then determine the unique unicyclic graph with maximum $SLEE$ a...

Eccentric Connectivity Index: Extremal Graphs and Values

Eccentric connectivity index has been found to have a low degeneracy and hence a significant potential of predicting biological activity of certain classes of chemical compounds. We present here explicit formulas for eccentric connectivity index of various families of graphs. We also show that the eccentric connectivity index grows at most polynomially with the number of vertices and determine ...
