چکیده

We describe a generating set for the variety of reflexive graphs that admit a compatible k-ary near-unanimity operation; we further delin-eate a very simple subset that generates the variety of j-absolute retracts; in particular we show that the class of reflexive graphs with a 4-NU operation coincides with the class of 3-absolute retracts. Our results generalise and encompass several results on NU-graphs and absolute retracts.

Graphs Admitting k-NU Operations. Part 2: The Irreflexive Case

We describe a generating set for the variety of simple graphs that admit a k-ary near-unanimity polymorphism. The result follows from an analysis of NU polymorphisms of strongly bipartite digraphs, i.e. whose vertices are either a source or a sink but not both. We show that the retraction problem for a strongly bipartite digraph H has finite duality if and only if H admits a near-unanimity poly...

A polynomial-time algorithm for near-unanimity graphs

We present a simple polynomial-time algorithm that recognises reflexive, symmetric graphs admitting a near-unanimity operation. Several other characterisations of these graphs are also presented.  2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Semilattice polymorphisms and chordal graphs

We investigate the class of reflexive graphs that admit semilattice polymorphisms, and in doing so, give an algebraic characterisation of chordal graphs. In particular, we show that a graph G is chordal if and only if it has a semilattice polymorphism such that G is a subgraph of the comparability graph of the semilattice. Further, we find a new characterisation of the leafage of a chordal grap...

Regular parcial linear spaces admitting (1;≤ k)-identifying codes

Let (P ,L, I) be a partial linear space and X ⊆ P ∪ L. Let us denote by (X)I = ⋃ x∈X{y : yIx} and by [X ] = (X)I ∪ X . With this terminology a partial linear space (P ,L, I) is said to admit a (1,≤ k)-identifying code if and only if the sets [X ] are mutually different for all X ⊆ P ∪L with |X | ≤ k. In this paper we give a characterization of k-regular partial linear spaces admitting a (1,≤ k)...

Voter model on heterogeneous graphs.

We study the voter model on heterogeneous graphs. We exploit the nonconservation of the magnetization to characterize how consensus is reached. For a network of N nodes with an arbitrary but uncorrelated degree distribution, the mean time to reach consensus T(N) scales as Nmu(2)1/mu(2), where mu(k) is the kth moment of the degree distribution. For a power-law degree distribution n(k) approximat...
