چکیده

A Nordhaus-Gaddum-type result is a (tight) lower or upper bound on the sum or product of a parameter of a graph and its complement. In this paper some variations are considered. First, the sums and products of ψ(G1) and ψ(G2) are examined where G1 ⊕ G2 = K(s, s), and ψ is the independence, domination, or independent domination number, inter alia. In particular, it is shown that the maximum value of the product of the domination numbers of G1 and G2 is b(s/2 + 2) c for s ≥ 3. Thereafter it is shown that for H1⊕H2⊕H3 = Kp, the maximum product of the domination numbers of H1, H2 and H3 is p /27 + Θ(p).

Nordhaus-gaddum-type Relations for the Energy and Laplacian Energy of Graphs

A b s t r a c t. Let G denote the complement of the graph G . If I(G) is some invariant of G , then relations (identities, bounds, and similar) pertaining to I(G) + I(G) are said to be of Nordhaus-Gaddum type. A number of lower and upper bounds of Nordhaus-Gaddum type are obtained for the energy and Laplacian energy of graphs. Also some new relations for the Laplacian graph energy are established.

Nordhaus-Gaddum Type Results for Total Domination

A Nordhaus-Gaddum-type result is a (tight) lower or upper bound on the sum or product of a parameter of a graph and its complement. In this paper we study Nordhaus-Gaddum-type results for total domination. We examine the sum and product of γt(G1) and γt(G2) where G1 ⊕G2 = K(s, s), and γt is the total domination number. We show that the maximum value of the sum of the total domination numbers of...

Nordhaus-Gaddum Problems for Colin de Verdière Type Parameters, Variants of Tree-width, and Related Parameters

A Nordhaus-Gaddum problem for a graph parameter is to determine a tight lower or upper bound for the sum or product of the parameter evaluated on a graph and on its complement. This article surveys Nordhaus-Gaddum results for the Colin de Verdière type parameters μ,ν , and ξ ; tree-width and its variants largeur d’arborescence, path-width, and proper path-width; and minor monotone ceilings of v...

On the Ordering of Trees with the General Randić Index of the Nordhaus-Gaddum Type

The general Randić index of an organic molecule whose molecular graph is G is defined as the sum of (d(u)d(v))α over all pairs of adjacent vertices of G, where d(u) is the degree of the vertex u in G and α is a real number with α 6= 0. In the paper, we obtained sharp bounds on the general Randić index of the Nordhaus-Gaddum type for trees. Also we show that the general Randić index of the Nordh...

Nordhaus-Gaddum type results for the Harary index of graphs

The emph{Harary index} $H(G)$ of a connected graph $G$ is defined as $H(G)=sum_{u,vin V(G)}frac{1}{d_G(u,v)}$ where $d_G(u,v)$ is the distance between vertices $u$ and $v$ of $G$. The Steiner distance in a graph, introduced by Chartrand et al. in 1989, is a natural generalization of the concept of classical graph distance. For a connected graph $G$ of order at least $2$ ...
