Some Bounds on Alliances in Trees
نویسنده
چکیده
Given a simple graph G = (V,E), a subset S of the vertices is called a global defensive alliance if S is a dominating set and for every vertex v in S at least half of the vertices in the closed neighborhood of v are in S. Similarly, a subset S is called a global offensive alliance if S is a dominating set and for every vertex v not in S at least half of the vertices in the closed neighborhood of v are in S. In this paper, we study the minimum cardinality global defensive and global offensive alliances of complete k-ary trees. We also give bounds on the difference between these two parameters for general trees.

On global (strong) defensive alliances in some product graphs
A defensive alliance in a graph is a set $S$ of vertices with the property that every vertex in $S$ has at most one moreneighbor outside of $S$ than it has inside of $S$. A defensive alliance $S$ is called global if it forms a dominating set. The global defensive alliance number of a graph $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a global defensive alliance in $G$. In this article we study the global ...
متن کاملStrong Alliances in Graphs
For any simple connected graph $G=(V,E)$, a defensive alliance is a subset $S$ of $V$ satisfying the condition that every vertex $vin S$ has at most one more neighbour in $V-S$ than it has in $S$. The minimum cardinality of any defensive alliance in $G$ is called the alliance number of $G$, denoted $a(G)$. In this paper, we introduce a new type of alliance number called $k$-strong alliance numb...
متن کاملAn Upper Bound on the First Zagreb Index in Trees
In this paper we give sharp upper bounds on the Zagreb indices and characterize all trees achieving equality in these bounds. Also, we give lower bound on first Zagreb coindex of trees.
متن کاملBounds for the Co-PI index of a graph
In this paper, we present some inequalities for the Co-PI index involving the some topological indices, the number of vertices and edges, and the maximum degree. After that, we give a result for trees. In addition, we give some inequalities for the largest eigenvalue of the Co-PI matrix of G.
متن کاملOn relation between the Kirchhoff index and number of spanning trees of graph
Let $G=(V,E)$, $V={1,2,ldots,n}$, $E={e_1,e_2,ldots,e_m}$,be a simple connected graph, with sequence of vertex degrees$Delta =d_1geq d_2geqcdotsgeq d_n=delta >0$ and Laplacian eigenvalues$mu_1geq mu_2geqcdotsgeqmu_{n-1}>mu_n=0$. Denote by $Kf(G)=nsum_{i=1}^{n-1}frac{1}{mu_i}$ and $t=t(G)=frac 1n prod_{i=1}^{n-1} mu_i$ the Kirchhoff index and number of spanning tree...
