چکیده

We show that edge-clique graphs of cocktail party graphs have unbounded rankwidth. This, and other observations lead us to conjecture that the edge-clique cover problem is NP-complete for cographs. We show that the independent set problem on edge-clique graphs of cographs and of distance-hereditary graphs can be solved in polynomial time. We show that the independent set problem on edge-clique graphs of graphs without odd wheels remains NP-complete. We present a PTAS for planar graphs and show that the problem is polynomial for planar graphs without triangle separators.

Independent sets in edge-clique graphs

We show that the edge-clique graphs of cocktail party graphs have unbounded rankwidth. This, and other observations lead us to conjecture that the edge-clique cover problem is NP-complete for cographs. We show that the independent set problem on edge-clique graphs of cographs and of distance-hereditary graphs can be solved in O(n4) time. We show that the independent set problem on edge-clique g...

Cohen-Macaulay $r$-partite graphs with minimal clique cover

‎In this paper‎, ‎we give some necessary conditions for an $r$-partite graph such that the edge ring of the graph is Cohen-Macaulay‎. ‎It is proved that if there exists a cover of an $r$-partite Cohen-Macaulay graph by disjoint cliques of size $r$‎, ‎then such a cover is unique‎.

CERTAIN TYPES OF EDGE m-POLAR FUZZY GRAPHS

In this research paper, we present a novel frame work for handling $m$-polar information by combining the theory of $m-$polar fuzzy  sets with graphs. We introduce certain types of edge regular $m-$polar fuzzy graphs and edge irregular $m-$polar fuzzy graphs. We describe some useful properties of edge regular, strongly edge irregular and strongly edge totally irregular $m-$polar fuzzy graphs. W...

On the Complete Width and Edge Clique Cover Problems

A complete graph is the graph in which every two vertices are adjacent. For a graph G = (V,E), the complete width of G is the minimum k such that there exist k independent sets Ni ⊆ V , 1 ≤ i ≤ k, such that the graph G obtained from G by adding some new edges between certain vertices inside the sets Ni, 1 ≤ i ≤ k, is a complete graph. The complete width problem is to decide whether the complete...

Total domination in $K_r$-covered graphs

The inflation $G_{I}$ of a graph $G$ with $n(G)$ vertices and $m(G)$ edges is obtained from $G$ by replacing every vertex of degree $d$ of $G$ by a clique, which is isomorph to the complete graph $K_{d}$, and each edge $(x_{i},x_{j})$ of $G$ is replaced by an edge $(u,v)$ in such a way that $uin X_{i}$, $vin X_{j}$, and two different edges of $G$ are replaced by non-adjacent edges of $G_{I}$. T...
