چکیده

A transitive decomposition of a graph is a partition of the edge set together with a group of automorphisms which transitively permutes the parts. In this paper we determine all transitive decompositions of the Johnson graphs such that the group preserving the partition is arc-transitive and acts primitively on the parts.

On the P4-structure of perfect graphs I. Even decompositions

Claude Berge proposed to call a graph perfect if, for each of its induced subgraphs F, the chromatic number of F equals the largest number of pairwise adjacent vertices in F. No polynomial-time algorithm for recognizing perfect graphs is known. It is conceivable that such an algorithm would rely on decompositions of all perfect graphs into some “primitive” perfect graphs recognizable in a polyn...

Decompositions of complete multipartite graphs

This paper answers a recent question of Dobson and Marušič by partitioning the edge set of a complete bipartite graph into two parts, both of which are edge sets of arctransitive graphs, one primitive and the other imprimitive. The first member of the infinite family is the one constructed by Dobson and Marušič.

Transitive decompositions of graph products: rank 3 grid type

A transitive decomposition is a pair ðG;PÞ where G is a graph and P is a partition of the arc set of G, such that there exists a group of automorphisms of G which leaves P invariant and transitively permutes the parts in P. This paper concerns transitive decompositions where the group is a primitive rank 3 group of ‘grid’ type. The graphs G in this case are either products or Cartesian products...

Hamilton decompositions of balanced complete multipartite graphs with primitive leaves

A graph G is said to be primitive if it contains no proper factors. In this paper, by using the amalgamation technique, we find sufficient conditions for the existence of a d-regular graph G on n vertices which: 1. has a Hamilton decomposition, and 2. has a complement in K p m that is primitive. These general results are then used to consider the bounds onmwhen p and d are fixed. The case p = 6...

Simplicial Decompositions, Tree-decompositions and Graph Minors

The concepts of simplicial decompositions, tree-decompositions and simplicial tree-decompositions were all inspired by a common forerunner: the decompositions of finite graphs used by K. Wagner in his classic paper [ 13 ], in which he proved the equivalence of the 4-Colour-Conjecture to Hadwiger’s Conjecture for n = 5. To show that the 4CC implies Hadwiger’s Conjecture (for n = 5), Wagner used ...
