New bounds on the classical and quantum communication complexity of some graph properties

چکیده
We study the communication complexity of a number of graph properties where the edges of the graph G are distributed between Alice and Bob (i.e., each receives some of the edges as input). Our main results are: An Ω(n) lower bound on the quantum communication complexity of deciding whether an nvertex graph G is connected, nearly matching the trivial classical upper bound of O(n logn) bits of communication. A deterministic upper bound of O(n3/2 logn) bits for deciding if a bipartite graph contains a perfect matching, and a quantum lower bound of Ω(n) for this problem. A Θ(n2) bound for the randomized communication complexity of deciding if a graph has an Eulerian tour, and a Θ(n3/2) bound for its quantum communication complexity. The first two quantum lower bounds are obtained by exhibiting a reduction from the n-bit Inner Product problem to these graph problems, which solves an open question of Babai, Frankl and Simon [2]. The third quantum lower bound comes from recent results about the quantum communication complexity of composed functions. We also obtain essentially tight bounds for the quantum communication complexity of a few other problems, such as deciding if G is triangle-free, or if G is bipartite, as well as computing the determinant of a distributed matrix. 1998 ACM Subject Classification F.1.1 Models of Computation; F.2 Analysis of algorithms and problem complexity

New bounds on proximity and remoteness in graphs
The average distance of a vertex $v$ of a connected graph $G$is the arithmetic mean of the distances from $v$ to allother vertices of $G$. The proximity $pi(G)$ and the remoteness $rho(G)$of $G$ are defined as the minimum and maximum averagedistance of the vertices of $G$. In this paper we investigate the difference between proximity or remoteness and the classical distanceparameters diameter a...
متن کاملLower bounds on the signed (total) $k$-domination number
Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$. For any integer $kge 1$, a signed (total) $k$-dominating functionis a function $f: V(G) rightarrow { -1, 1}$ satisfying $sum_{xin N[v]}f(x)ge k$ ($sum_{xin N(v)}f(x)ge k$)for every $vin V(G)$, where $N(v)$ is the neighborhood of $v$ and $N[v]=N(v)cup{v}$. The minimum of the values$sum_{vin V(G)}f(v)$, taken over all signed (total) $k$-dominating functi...
متن کاملEdge-tenacity in Networks
Numerous networks as, for example, road networks, electrical networks and communication networks can be modeled by a graph. Many attempts have been made to determine how well such a network is "connected" or stated differently how much effort is required to break down communication in the system between at least some nodes. Two well-known measures that indicate how "reliable" a graph is are the...
متن کاملSome new bounds on the general sum--connectivity index
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple connectedgraph with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges and sequence of vertex degrees$d_1 ge d_2 ge cdots ge d_n>0$, $d_i=d(v_i)$, where $v_iin V$. With $isim j$ we denote adjacency ofvertices $v_i$ and $v_j$. The generalsum--connectivity index of graph is defined as $chi_{alpha}(G)=sum_{isim j}(d_i+d_j)^{alpha}$, where $alpha$ is an arbitrary real<b...
متن کاملOn the eigenvalues of some matrices based on vertex degree
The aim of this paper is to compute some bounds of forgotten index and then we present spectral properties of this index. In continuing, we define a new version of energy namely ISI energy corresponded to the ISI index and then we determine some bounds for it.
