On isomorphic linear partitions in cubic graphs

چکیده
A linear forest is a graph that connected components are chordless paths. A linear partition of a graph G is a partition of its edge set into linear forests and la(G) is the minimum number of linear forests in a linear partition. It is well known that la(G) = 2 when G is a cubic graph and Wormald [17] conjectured that if |V (G)| ≡ 0 (mod 4), then it is always possible to find a linear partition in two isomorphic linear forests. We give here some new results concerning this conjecture.

On the distance eigenvalues of Cayley graphs
In this paper, we determine the distance matrix and its characteristic polynomial of a Cayley graph over a group G in terms of irreducible representations of G. We give exact formulas for n-prisms, hexagonal torus network and cubic Cayley graphs over abelian groups. We construct an innite family of distance integral Cayley graphs. Also we prove that a nite abelian group G admits a connected...
متن کاملDomination parameters of Cayley graphs of some groups
In this paper, we investigate domination number, $gamma$, as well as signed domination number, $gamma_{_S}$, of all cubic Cayley graphs of cyclic and quaternion groups. In addition, we show that the domination and signed domination numbers of cubic graphs depend on each other.
متن کاملIrreducible pseudo 2-factor isomorphic cubic bipartite graphs
A bipartite graph is pseudo 2–factor isomorphic if all its 2–factors have the same parity of number of circuits. In a previous paper we have proved that pseudo 2–factor isomorphic k–regular bipartite graphs exist only for k ≤ 3, and partially characterized them. In particular we proved that the only essentially 4–edge-connected pseudo 2–factor isomorphic cubic bipartite graph of girth 4 is K3,3...
متن کاملOn linear arboricity of cubic graphs
A linear forest is a graph in which each connected component is a chordless path. A linear partition of a graph G is a partition of its edge set into linear forests and la(G) is the minimum number of linear forests in a linear partition. When each path has length at most k a linear forest is a linear k-forest and lak(G) will denote the minimum number of linear k-forests partitioning E(G). We cl...
متن کاملColourings of cubic graphs inducing isomorphic monochromatic subgraphs
A k–bisection of a bridgeless cubic graph G is a 2–colouring of its vertex set such that the colour classes have the same cardinality and all connected components in the two subgraphs induced by the colour classes (monochromatic components in what follows) have order at most k. Ban and Linial conjectured that every bridgeless cubic graph admits a 2–bisection except for the Petersen graph. A sim...
