چکیده

In this paper we study the extremal type problem arising from the question: What is the maximum number ET (S) of edges that a geometric graph G on a planar point set S can have such that it does not contain empty triangles? We prove: ( n 2 ) −O(n log n) ≤ ET (n) ≤ ( n 2 ) − ( n− 2 + ⌊n 8 ⌋) . keywords: Geometric graphs Empty triangles Combinatorial Geometry Extremal Problem ∗Partially supported by SEP-CONACYT of Mexico. email : [email protected] †Partially supported by SEP-CONACYT of Mexico. email : [email protected] ‡Partially supported by projects MEC MTM2009-07242, Gen.

On Tensor Product of Graphs, Girth and Triangles

The purpose of this paper is to obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the tensor product of two or more graphs to be connected, bipartite or eulerian. Also, we present a characterization of the duplicate graph $G 1 K_2$ to be unicyclic. Finally, the girth and the formula for computing the number of triangles in the tensor product of graphs are worked out.

Grid Embedding of Internally Triangulated Plane Graphs without Non-empty Triangles

A straight line grid embedding of a plane graph G is a drawing of G such that the vertices are drawn at grid points and the edges are drawn as non-intersecting straight line segments. In this paper, we show that, if an internally triangulated plane graph G has no non-empty triangles (a non-empty triangle is a triangle of G containing some vertices in its interior), then G can be embedded on a g...

On the total version of geometric-arithmetic index

The total version of geometric–arithmetic index of graphs is introduced based on the endvertex degrees of edges of their total graphs. In this paper, beside of computing the total GA index for some graphs, its some properties especially lower and upper bounds are obtained.

On edge-disjoint empty triangles of point sets

Let P be a set of points in the plane in general position. Any three points x, y, x 2 P determine a triangle (x, y, z) of the plane. We say that (x, y, z) is empty if its interior contains no element of P . In this paper we study the following problems: What is the size of the largest family of edge-disjoint triangles of a point set? How many triangulations of P are needed to cover all the empt...

On Total Edge Irregularity Strength of Staircase Graphs and Related Graphs

Let G=(V(G),E(G)) be a connected simple undirected graph with non empty vertex set V(G) and edge set E(G). For a positive integer k, by an edge irregular total k-labeling we mean a function f : V(G)UE(G) --> {1,2,...,k} such that for each two edges ab and cd, it follows that f(a)+f(ab)+f(b) is different from f(c)+f(cd)+f(d), i.e. every two edges have distinct weights. The minimum k for which G ...
