چکیده

A theta graph is the union of three internally disjoint paths that have the same two distinct end vertices. We show that every graph of order n ≥ 9 and size at least b7n−13 2 c contains two disjoint theta graphs. We also show that every 2-edge-connected graph of order n ≥ 6 and size at least 3n− 5 contains two disjoint cycles, such that any specified vertex with degree at least three belongs to one of them. The lower bound on size in both are sharp in general.

Disjoint chorded cycles in graphs

We propose the following conjecture to generalize results of Pósa and Corrádi Hajnal. Let r, s be nonnegative integers and let G be a graph with |V (G)| ≥ 3r + 4s and minimal degree δ(G) ≥ 2r + 3s. Then G contains a collection of r + s vertex disjoint cycles, s of them with a chord. We prove the conjecture for r = 0, s = 2 and for s = 1. The corresponding extremal problem, to find the minimum n...

Extremal Positive Solutions For The Distributed Order Fractional Hybrid Differential Equations

In this article, we prove the existence of extremal positive solution for the distributed order fractional hybrid differential equation$$int_{0}^{1}b(q)D^{q}[frac{x(t)}{f(t,x(t))}]dq=g(t,x(t)),$$using a fixed point theorem in the Banach algebras. This proof is given in two cases of the continuous and discontinuous function $g$, under the generalized Lipschitz and Caratheodory conditions.

Extremal Energy of Digraphs with Two Linear Subdigraphs

The eigenvalues of a digraph are the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. The sum of the absolute values of the real part of the eigenvalues is called the energy of the digraph. The extremal energy of bicyclic digraphs with vertex-disjoint directed cycles is known. In this paper, we consider a class of bicyclic digraphs with exactly two linear subdigraphs of equal length. We find the minimal an...

0n removable cycles in graphs and digraphs

In this paper we define the removable cycle that, if $Im$ is a class of graphs, $Gin Im$, the cycle $C$ in $G$ is called removable if $G-E(C)in Im$. The removable cycles in Eulerian graphs have been studied. We characterize Eulerian graphs which contain two edge-disjoint removable cycles, and the necessary and sufficient conditions for Eulerian graph to have removable cycles h...

Hypergraph Turán numbers of linear cycles

A k-uniform linear cycle of length l, denoted by C (k) l , is a cyclic list of k-sets A1, . . . , Al such that consecutive sets intersect in exactly one element and nonconsecutive sets are disjoint. For all k ≥ 5 and l ≥ 3 and sufficiently large n we detemine the largest size of a k-uniform set family on [n] not containing a linear cycle of length l. For odd l = 2t + 1 the unique extremal famil...
