چکیده

A graph is unipolar if it can be partitioned into a clique and a disjoint union of cliques, and a graph is a generalised split graph if it or its complement is unipolar. A unipolar partition of a graph can be used to find efficiently the clique number, the stability number, the chromatic number, and to solve other problems that are hard for general graphs. We present an O(n)-time algorithm for recognition of n-vertex generalised split graphs, improving on previous O(n)-time algorithms.

Algorithms for Unipolar and Generalized Split Graphs

A graph G = (V,E) is a unipolar graph if there exits a partition V = V1 ∪ V2 such that, V1 is a clique and V2 induces the disjoint union of cliques. The complement-closed class of generalized split graphs are those graphs G such that either G or the complement of G is unipolar. Generalized split graphs are a large subclass of perfect graphs. In fact, it has been shown that almost all C5-free (a...

Parameterized Algorithms for Recognizing Monopolar and 2-Subcolorable Graphs

We consider the recognition problem for two graph classes that generalize split and unipolar graphs, respectively. First, we consider the recognizability of graphs that admit a monopolar partition: a partition of the vertex set into sets A,B such that G[A] is a disjoint union of cliques and G[B] an independent set. If in such a partition G[A] is a single clique, then G is a split graph. We show...

Chromatic Harmonic Indices and Chromatic Harmonic Polynomials of Certain Graphs

In the main this paper introduces the concept of chromatic harmonic polynomials denoted, $H^chi(G,x)$ and chromatic harmonic indices denoted, $H^chi(G)$ of a graph $G$. The new concept is then applied to finding explicit formula for the minimum (maximum) chromatic harmonic polynomials and the minimum (maximum) chromatic harmonic index of certain graphs. It is also applied to split graphs and ce...

Split-Perfect Graphs: Characterizations and Algorithmic Use

Two graphs G and H with the same vertex set V are P4-isomorphic if every four vertices {a, b, c, d} ⊆ V induce a chordless path (denoted by P4) in G if and only if they induce a P4 in H. We call a graph split-perfect if it is P4-isomorphic to a split graph (i.e., a graph being partitionable into a clique and a stable set). This paper characterizes the new class of split-perfect graphs using the...

Parallel Algorithms for Hierarchical Clustering and Applications to Split Decomposition and Parity Graph Recognition

Ž . We present efficient parallel algorithms for two hierarchical clustering heuristics. We point out that these heuristics can also be applied to solving some algorithmic problems in graphs, including split decomposition. We show that efficient parallel split decomposition induces an efficient parallel parity graph recognition algorithm. This is a consequence of the result of S. Cicerone and D...
