چکیده

Let t ≥ 6 be an integer. We show that if G is a (3t − 3)/2 -connected K1,t-free graph, then G has a 4-factor.

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...

Two forbidden subgraphs and the existence of a 2-factor in graphs

In 1996, Ota and Tokuda showed that a star-free graph with sufficiently high minimum degree admits a 2-factor. More recently it was shown that the minimum degree condition can be significantly reduced if one also requires that the graph is not only star-free but also of sufficiently high edge-connectivity. In this paper we reduce the minimum degree condition further for star-free graphs that al...

On Edge-Decomposition of Cubic Graphs into Copies of the Double-Star with Four Edges‎

‎A tree containing exactly two non-pendant vertices is called a double-star‎. ‎Let $k_1$ and $k_2$ be two positive integers‎. ‎The double-star with degree sequence $(k_1+1‎, ‎k_2+1‎, ‎1‎, ‎ldots‎, ‎1)$ is denoted by $S_{k_1‎, ‎k_2}$‎. ‎It is known that a cubic graph has an $S_{1,1}$-decomposition if and only if it contains a perfect matching‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we study the $S_{1,2}$-decomposit...

Sufficient conditions for maximally edge-connected and super-edge-connected

Let $G$ be a connected graph with minimum degree $delta$ and edge-connectivity $lambda$. A graph ismaximally edge-connected if $lambda=delta$, and it is super-edge-connected if every minimum edge-cut istrivial; that is, if every minimum edge-cut consists of edges incident with a vertex of minimum degree.In this paper, we show that a connected graph or a connected triangle-free graph is maximall...

On the Eccentric Connectivity Index of Unicyclic Graphs

In this paper, we obtain the upper and lower bounds on the eccen- tricity connectivity index of unicyclic graphs with perfect matchings. Also we give some lower bounds on the eccentric connectivity index of unicyclic graphs with given matching numbers.
