چکیده

Let P be a hereditary property. Let kP(G) denote the number of forbidden subgraphs, which are contained in G. A graph G is said to be weakly P-saturated, if G ∈ P and the edges of the complement of G can be labelled e1, e2, . . . , el in such way that for i= 0, 1, . . . , l− 1 the inequality kP(Gi+1)> kP(Gi) holds, whereG0=G,Gi+1=Gi + ei andGl =Kn. The minimum possible size of weakly P-saturated graphs is denoted by wsat(n,P). In this paper we shall investigate some properties of weakly saturated graphs.We provide some estimations for the minimum size of weakly P-saturated graphs. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Weak saturation numbers for multiple copies

For a fixed graph F , a graph G is F-saturated if there is no copy of F in G, but for any edge e ∉ G, there is a copy of F inG+e. Theminimumnumber of edges in an F-saturated graph of order nwill be denoted by sat(n, F). A graph G is weakly F-saturated if G contains no copy of F and there is an ordering of the missing edges of G so that if they are added one at a time, each edge added creates a ...

Weakly P-saturated graphs

For a hereditary property P let kP(G) denote the number of forbidden subgraphs contained in G. A graph G is said to be weakly Psaturated, if G has the property P and there is a sequence of edges of G, say e1, e2, . . . , el, such that the chain of graphs G = G0 ⊂ G0+e1 ⊂ G1 + e2 ⊂ . . . ⊂ Gl−1 + el = Gl = Kn (Gi+1 = Gi + ei+1) has the following property: kP(Gi+1) > kP(Gi), 0 ≤ i ≤ l − 1. In thi...

Weak saturation numbers for sparse graphs

For a fixed graph F , a graph G is F -saturated if there is no copy of F in G, but for any edge e 6∈ G, there is a copy of F in G+ e. The minimum number of edges in an F -saturated graph of order n will be denoted by sat(n, F ). A graph G is weakly F -saturated if there is an ordering of the missing edges of G so that if they are added one at a time, each edge added creates a new copy of F . Th...

Weakly Noetherian Leavitt Path Algebras

We study row-finite Leavitt path algebras. We characterize the row-finite graphs E for which the Leavitt path algebra is weakly Noetherian. Our main result is that a Leavitt path algebra is weakly Noetherian if and only if there is ascending chain condition on the hereditary and saturated closures of the subsets of the vertices of the graph E.

Canonizable Partial Order Generators and Regular Slice Languages

In a previous work we introduced slice graphs as a way to specify both infinite languages of directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) and infinite languages of partial orders. Therein we focused on the study of Hasse diagram generators, i.e., slice graphs that generate only transitive reduced DAGs. In the present work we show that any slice graph can be transitive reduced into a Hasse diagram generator r...
