Highly connected molecular graphs are rigid in three dimensions

چکیده
We show that every 7-vertex-connected molecular graph is generically rigid in three dimensions. This verifies a special case of a conjecture of Lovász and Yemini. For this family of graphs the bound is best possible.

Matching Integral Graphs of Small Order
In this paper, we study matching integral graphs of small order. A graph is called matching integral if the zeros of its matching polynomial are all integers. Matching integral graphs were first studied by Akbari, Khalashi, etc. They characterized all traceable graphs which are matching integral. They studied matching integral regular graphs. Furthermore, it has been shown that there is no matc...
متن کاملSzeged Dimension and $PI_v$ Dimension of Composite Graphs
Let $G$ be a simple connected graph. In this paper, Szeged dimension and PI$_v$ dimension of graph $G$ are introduced. It is proved that if $G$ is a graph of Szeged dimension $1$ then line graph of $G$ is 2-connected. The dimensions of five composite graphs: sum, corona, composition, disjunction and symmetric difference with strongly regular components is computed. Also explicit formulas of Sze...
متن کاملLower Bounds for Locally Highly Connected Graphs
We propose a conjecture regarding the lower bound for the number of edges in locally k-connected graphs and we prove it for k = 2. In particular, we show that every connected locally 2-connected graph is M3-rigid. For the special case of surface triangulations, this fact was known before using topological methods. We generalize this result to all locally 2-connected graphs and give a purely com...
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 کاملLower bounds on the number of realizations of rigid graphs
In this paper we take advantage of a recently published algorithm for computing the number of realizations of minimally rigid graphs. Combining computational results with the theory of constructing new rigid graphs by gluing, we give a new lower bound on the maximal possible number of realizations for graphs with a given number of vertices. We extend these ideas to rigid frameworks in three dim...
