On the Girth of Groups
نویسنده
چکیده
DISCLAIMER: Everything that follows is of a preliminary nature. We give a new invariant for finitely generated groups, called the girth. Several results which indicate that the girth of a group might possibly be a quasi-isometry invariant are proved. We also compute the girth in several instances and speculate on the relation of girth to the growth of groups.

Experimental Study of the Residual Stresses in Girth Weld of Natural Gas Transmission Pipeline
In order to achieve integrated condition in the girth welding of high pressure natural gas transmission pipelines, the weld zones and its surrounding area should have good mechanical properties. Residual stresses are an important defect especially in the girth welding of the pipeline. In this study, two API X70 steel pipes (with spiral seam weld) of 56 inches outside diameter and 0.780 inch wal...
متن کاملOn the girth of the annihilating-ideal graph of a commutative ring
The annihilating-ideal graph of a commutative ring $R$ is denoted by $AG(R)$, whose vertices are all nonzero ideals of $R$ with nonzero annihilators and two distinct vertices $I$ and $J$ are adjacent if and only if $IJ=0$. In this article, we completely characterize rings $R$ when $gr(AG(R))neq 3$.
متن کاملA new result on chromaticity of K4-homoemorphs with girth 9
For a graph $G$, let $P(G,lambda)$ denote the chromatic polynomial of $G$. Two graphs $G$ and $H$ are chromatically equivalent if they share the same chromatic polynomial. A graph $G$ is chromatically unique if any graph chromatically equivalent to $G$ is isomorphic to $G$. A $K_4$-homeomorph is a subdivision of the complete graph $K_4$. In this paper, we determine a family of chromatically uni...
متن کاملSOME GRAPH PARAMETERS ON THE COMPOSITE ORDER CAYLEY GRAPH
In this paper, the composite order Cayley graph Cay(G, S) is introduced, where G is a group and S is the set of all composite order elements of G. Some graph parameters such as diameter, girth, clique number, independence number, vertex chromatic number and domination number are calculated for the composite order Cayley graph of some certain groups. Moreover, the planarity of composite order Ca...
متن کاملGirth, minimum degree, independence, and broadcast independence
An independent broadcast on a connected graph $G$is a function $f:V(G)to mathbb{N}_0$such that, for every vertex $x$ of $G$, the value $f(x)$ is at most the eccentricity of $x$ in $G$,and $f(x)>0$ implies that $f(y)=0$ for every vertex $y$ of $G$ within distance at most $f(x)$ from $x$.The broadcast independence number $alpha_b(G)$ of $G$is the largest weight $sumlimits_{xin V(G)}f(x)$of an ind...
