A characterization of consistent marked graphs
نویسنده
چکیده
A marked graph is obtained from a graph by giving each point either a positive or a negative sign. Beineke and Harary raised the problem of characterizing consistent marked graphs in which the product of the signs of the points is positive for every cycle. In this paper a characterization is given in terms of fundamental cycles of a cycle basis.

Balanced group-labeled graphs
A group-labeled graph is a graph whose vertices and edges have been assigned labels from some abelian group. The weight of a subgraph of a group-labeled graph is the sum of the labels of the vertices and edges in the subgraph. A group-labeled graph is said to be balanced if the weight of every cycle in the graph is zero. We give a characterization of balanced group-labeled graphs that generaliz...
متن کاملCharacterization of Signed Graphs whose Iterated Signed Line Graphs are Balanced or S−Consistent
A signed graph is a graph in which every edge is designated to be either positive or negative; it is balanced if every cycle contains an even number of negative edges. A marked signed graph is a signed graph each vertex of which is designated to be positive or negative, and it is consistent if every cycle in the signed graph possesses an even number of negative vertices. Signed line graph L(S) ...
متن کاملA CHARACTERIZATION FOR METRIC TWO-DIMENSIONAL GRAPHS AND THEIR ENUMERATION
The textit{metric dimension} of a connected graph $G$ is the minimum number of vertices in a subset $B$ of $G$ such that all other vertices are uniquely determined by their distances to the vertices in $B$. In this case, $B$ is called a textit{metric basis} for $G$. The textit{basic distance} of a metric two dimensional graph $G$ is the distance between the elements of $B$. Givi...
متن کاملCharacterizations of Consistent Marked Graphs
A marked graph is a graph with a + or − sign on each vertex and is called consistent if each cycle has an even number of − signs. This concept is motivated by problems of communication networks and social networks. We present some new characterizations/recognition algorithms for consistent marked graphs.
