چکیده

An edge colored graph G is rainbow edge connected if any two vertices are connected by a path whose edges have distinct colors. The rainbow connectivity of a connected graph G, denoted by rc(G), is the smallest number of colors that are needed in order to make G rainbow connected. In this work we study the rainbow connectivity of the binomial graph G = G(n, p) at the connectivity threshold p = logn+ω n where ω = ω(n) → ∞ and ω = o(log n). We prove that the rainbow connectivity of G satisfies rc(G) ∼ max {Z1, diameter(G)} with high probability (whp). Here Z1 is the number of vertices in G whose degree equals 1 and the diameter of G is asymptotically equal to logn log logn , whp.

On Rainbow-k-Connectivity of Random Graphs

A path in an edge-colored graph is called a rainbow path if the edges on it have distinct colors. For k ≥ 1, the rainbow-k-connectivity of a graph G, denoted rck(G), is the minimum number of colors required to color the edges of G in such a way that every two distinct vertices are connected by at least k internally vertex-disjoint rainbow paths. In this paper, we study rainbow-k-connectivity in...

On the edge-connectivity of C_4-free graphs

Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ and minimum degree $delta(G)$.The edge-connectivity $lambda(G)$ of $G$ is the minimum numberof edges whose removal renders $G$ disconnected. It is well-known that$lambda(G) leq delta(G)$,and if $lambda(G)=delta(G)$, then$G$ is said to be maximally edge-connected. A classical resultby Chartrand gives the sufficient condition $delta(G) geq frac{n-1}{2}$fo...

On the Szeged and Eccentric connectivity indices of non-commutative graph of finite groups

Let $G$ be a non-abelian group. The non-commuting graph $Gamma_G$ of $G$ is defined as the graph whose vertex set is the non-central elements of $G$ and two vertices are joined if and only if they do not commute.In this paper we study some properties of $Gamma_G$ and introduce $n$-regular $AC$-groups. Also we then obtain a formula for Szeged index of $Gamma_G$ in terms of $n$, $|Z(G)|$ and $|G|...
