A Computational Study for the Graph-Theoretic Version of the Union-Closed Sets Conjecture

چکیده
An induced subgraph S of a graph G is called a derived subgraph of G if S contains no isolated vertices. An edge e of G is said to be residual if e occurs in more than half of the derived subgraphs of G. We prove some theorems which calculate the number of derived subgraphs for some special graphs. We also present a new algorithm SDSA that calculates the number of derived subgraphs for a given graph G and determines the residual and non-residual edges. Finally, we introduce a computational study which supports our results.

Frankl's Conjecture for a subclass of semimodular lattices
In this paper, we prove Frankl's Conjecture for an upper semimodular lattice $L$ such that $|J(L)setminus A(L)| leq 3$, where $J(L)$ and $A(L)$ are the set of join-irreducible elements and the set of atoms respectively. It is known that the class of planar lattices is contained in the class of dismantlable lattices and the class of dismantlable lattices is contained in the class of lattices ha...
متن کاملUnion Closed Set Conjecture and Maximum Dicut in Connected Digraph
In this dissertation, we study the following two topics, i.e., the union closed set conjecture and the maximum edges cut in connected digraphs. The union-closed-set-conjecture-topic goes as follows. A finite family of finite sets is union closed if it contains the union of any two sets in it. Let XF = ∪F∈FF . A union closed family of sets is separating if for any two distinct elements in F , th...
متن کاملThe graph formulation of the union-closed sets conjecture
In 1979 Frankl conjectured that in a finite non-trivial union-closed collection of sets there has to be an element that belongs to at least half the sets. We show that this is equivalent to the conjecture that in a finite non-trivial graph there are two adjacent vertices each belonging to at most half of the maximal stable sets. In this graph formulation other special cases become natural. The ...
متن کاملFrankl’s Conjecture for Large Semimodular and Planar Semimodular Lattices
A lattice L is said to satisfy (the lattice theoretic version of) Frankl’s conjecture if there is a join-irreducible element f ∈ L such that at most half of the elements x of L satisfy f ≤ x. Frankl’s conjecture, also called as union-closed sets conjecture, is well-known in combinatorics, and it is equivalent to the statement that every finite lattice satisfies Frankl’s conjecture. Let m denote...
متن کاملOn averaging Frankl's conjecture for large union-closed-sets
Let F be a union-closed family of subsets of an m-element set A. Let n = |F| ≥ 2 and for a ∈ A let s(a) denote the number of sets in F that contain a. Frankl’s conjecture from 1979, also known as the union-closed sets conjecture, states that there exists an element a ∈ A with n − 2s(a) ≤ 0. Strengthening a result of Gao and Yu [7] we verify the conjecture for the particular case when m ≥ 3 and ...
