چکیده

We present a simple iterative strategy for measuring the connection strength between a pair of vertices in a graph. The method is attractive in that it has a linear complexity and can be easily parallelized. Based on an analysis of the convergence property, we propose a mutually reinforcing model to explain the intuition behind the strategy. The practical effectiveness of this measure is demonstrated through several combinatorial optimization problems on graphs and hypergraphs.

COSPECTRALITY MEASURES OF GRAPHS WITH AT MOST SIX VERTICES

Cospectrality of two graphs measures the differences between the ordered spectrum of these graphs in various ways. Actually, the origin of this concept came back to Richard Brualdi's problems that are proposed in cite{braldi}: Let $G_n$ and $G'_n$ be two nonisomorphic simple graphs on $n$ vertices with spectra$$lambda_1 geq lambda_2 geq cdots geq lambda_n ;;;text{and};;; lambda'_1 geq lambda'_2...

A note on the order graph of a group

 The order graph of a group $G$, denoted by $Gamma^*(G)$, is a graph whose vertices are subgroups of $G$ and two distinct vertices $H$ and $K$ are adjacent if and only if $|H|big{|}|K|$ or $|K|big{|}|H|$. In this paper, we study the connectivity and diameter of this  graph. Also we give a relation between the order graph and prime  graph of a group.

Intersection graphs associated with semigroup acts

The intersection graph $mathbb{Int}(A)$ of an $S$-act $A$ over a semigroup $S$ is an undirected simple graph whose vertices are non-trivial subacts of $A$, and two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if they have a non-empty intersection. In this paper, we study some graph-theoretic properties of $mathbb{Int}(A)$ in connection to some algebraic properties of $A$. It is proved that the fi...

Some finite groups with divisibility graph containing no triangles

Let $G$ be a finite group. The graph $D(G)$ is a divisibility graph of $G$. Its vertex set is the non-central conjugacy class sizes of $G$ and there is an edge between vertices $a$ and $b$ if and only if $a|b$ or $b|a$. In this paper, we investigate the structure of the divisibility graph $D(G)$ for a non-solvable group with $sigma^{ast}(G)=2$, a finite simple group $G$ that satisfies the one-p...

Vulnerability Measure of a Network - a Survey

In this paper we discuss about tenacity and its properties in stability calculation. We indicate relationships between tenacity and connectivity, tenacity and binding number, tenacity and toughness. We also give good lower and upper bounds for tenacity. Since we are primarily interested in the case where disruption of the graph is caused by the removal of a vertex or vertices (and the resulting...
