چکیده
For a xed positive integer k, the linear k-arboricity lak(G) of a graph G is the minimum number ‘ such that the edge set E(G) can be partitioned into ‘ disjoint sets and that each induces a subgraph whose components are paths of lengths at most k. This paper studies linear k-arboricity from an algorithmic point of view. In particular, we present a linear-time algorithm to determine whether a tree T has lak(T )6m. ? 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.

Induced and Weak Induced Arboricities
We define the induced arboricity of a graph G, denoted by ia(G), as the smallest k such that the edges of G can be covered with k induced forests in G. This notion generalizes the classical notions of the arboricity and strong chromatic index. For a class F of graphs and a graph parameter p, let p(F) = sup{p(G) | G ∈ F}. We show that ia(F) is bounded from above by an absolute constant depending...
متن کاملVertex and Tree Arboricities of Graphs
This paper studies the following variations of arboricity of graphs. The vertex (respectively, tree) arboricity of a graph G is the minimum number va(G) (respectively, ta(G)) of subsets into which the vertices of G can be partitioned so that each subset induces a forest (respectively, tree). This paper studies the vertex and the tree arboricities on various classes of graphs for exact values, a...
متن کاملOn the extremal total irregularity index of n-vertex trees with fixed maximum degree
In the extension of irregularity indices, Abdo et. al. [1] defined the total irregu-larity of a graph G = (V, E) as irrt(G) = 21 Pu,v∈V (G) du − dv, where du denotesthe vertex degree of a vertex u ∈ V (G). In this paper, we investigate the totalirregularity of trees with bounded maximal degree Δ and state integer linear pro-gramming problem which gives standard information about extremal trees a...
متن کاملBranches in random recursive k-ary trees
In this paper, using generalized {polya} urn models we find the expected value of the size of a branch in recursive $k$-ary trees. We also find the expectation of the number of nodes of a given outdegree in a branch of such trees.
متن کاملChanges in leaf nutrients of healthy and withered trees in the forests of Garan (in Marivan) and Dezlei (in Sarvabad) in Kurdistan province
Most macronutrient accumulation occurs in tree leaves and there is a strong relationship between leaf nutrient change and tree decline. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in leaf nutrients in healthy and withered trees in the forests of Marivan and Sarvabad county in Kurdistan province. For this purpose, Garan (Marivan) with declining trees were selected as unhealthy site, whi...
