چکیده

We show that for each integer g ≥ 0 there is a constant cg > 0 such that every graph that embeds in the projective plane with sufficiently large face–width r has crossing number at least cgr 2 in the orientable surface Σg of genus g. As a corollary, we give a polynomial time constant factor approximation algorithm for the crossing number of projective graphs with bounded degree.

META-HEURISTIC ALGORITHMS FOR MINIMIZING THE NUMBER OF CROSSING OF COMPLETE GRAPHS AND COMPLETE BIPARTITE GRAPHS

The minimum crossing number problem is among the oldest and most fundamental problems arising in the area of automatic graph drawing. In this paper, eight population-based meta-heuristic algorithms are utilized to tackle the minimum crossing number problem for two special types of graphs, namely complete graphs and complete bipartite graphs. A 2-page book drawing representation is employed for ...

Characterization of projective special linear groups in dimension three by their orders and degree patterns

The prime graph $Gamma(G)$ of a group $G$ is a graph with vertex set $pi(G)$, the set of primes dividing the order of $G$, and two distinct vertices $p$ and $q$ are adjacent by an edge written $psim q$ if there is an element in $G$ of order $pq$. Let $pi(G)={p_{1},p_{2},...,p_{k}}$. For $pinpi(G)$, set $deg(p):=|{q inpi(G)| psim q}|$, which is called the degree of $p$. We also set $D(G):...

A module theoretic approach to‎ ‎zero-divisor graph with respect to (first) dual

Let $M$ be an $R$-module and $0 neq fin M^*={rm Hom}(M,R)$. We associate an undirected graph $gf$ to $M$ in which non-zero elements $x$ and $y$ of $M$ are adjacent provided that $xf(y)=0$ or $yf(x)=0$. Weobserve that over a commutative ring $R$, $gf$ is connected anddiam$(gf)leq 3$. Moreover, if $Gamma (M)$ contains a cycle,then $mbox{gr}(gf)leq 4$. Furthermore if $|gf|geq 1$, then$gf$ is finit...

New characterization of some linear ‎groups‎

‎There are a few finite groups that are determined up to isomorphism solely by their order, such as $mathbb{Z}_{2}$ or $mathbb{Z}_{15}$. Still other finite groups are determined by their order together with other data, such as the number of elements of each order, the structure of the prime graph, the number of order components, the number of Sylow $p$-subgroups for each prime $p$, etc. In this...

The projective plane crossing number of the circulant graph C(3k;{1, k})

The crossing number is an important measure of the non-planarity of a graph. Bhatt and Leighton [1] showed that the crossing number of a network (graph) is closely related to the minimum layout area required for the implementation of a VLSI circuit for that network. In general, determining the crossing number of a graph is hard. Garey and Johnson [3] showed that it is NP-complete. In fact, Hlin...
