چکیده
An edge-coloured graph G is rainbow connected if any two vertices are connected by a path whose edges have distinct colours. A graph G is called rainbow k-connected, if there is an edge-colouring of G with k colours such that G is rainbow-connected. In this talk we will study rainbow k-connected graphs with a minimum number of edges. For an integer n ≥ 3 and 1 ≤ k ≤ n− 1 let t(n, k) denote the minimum size of a rainbow k-connected graph G of order n. We will compute exact values and upper bounds for t(n, k).

An edge-coloured graph G is rainbow connected if any two vertices are connected by a path whose edges have distinct colours. A graph G is called rainbow k-connected, if there is an edge-colouring of G with k colours such that G is rainbow-connected.

متن کاملComplexity of Rainbow Vertex Connectivity Problems for Restricted Graph Classes
A path in a vertex-colored graph G is vertex rainbow if all of its internal vertices have a distinct color. The graph G is said to be rainbow vertex connected if there is a vertex rainbow path between every pair of its vertices. Similarly, the graph G is strongly rainbow vertex connected if there is a shortest path which is vertex rainbow between every pair of its vertices. We consider the comp...
متن کاملOn Rainbow-k-Connectivity of Random Graphs
A path in an edge-colored graph is called a rainbow path if the edges on it have distinct colors. For k ≥ 1, the rainbow-k-connectivity of a graph G, denoted rck(G), is the minimum number of colors required to color the edges of G in such a way that every two distinct vertices are connected by at least k internally vertex-disjoint rainbow paths. In this paper, we study rainbow-k-connectivity in...
متن کاملFurther Hardness Results on Rainbow and Strong Rainbow Connectivity
A path in an edge-colored graph is rainbow if no two edges of it are colored the same. The graph is said to be rainbow connected if there is a rainbow path between every pair of vertices. If there is a rainbow shortest path between every pair of vertices, the graph is strong rainbow connected. We consider the complexity of the problem of deciding if a given edge-colored graph is rainbow or stro...
متن کاملTotal $k$-Rainbow domination numbers in graphs
Let $kgeq 1$ be an integer, and let $G$ be a graph. A {it$k$-rainbow dominating function} (or a {it $k$-RDF}) of $G$ is afunction $f$ from the vertex set $V(G)$ to the family of all subsetsof ${1,2,ldots ,k}$ such that for every $vin V(G)$ with$f(v)=emptyset $, the condition $bigcup_{uinN_{G}(v)}f(u)={1,2,ldots,k}$ is fulfilled, where $N_{G}(v)$ isthe open neighborhood of $v$. The {it weight} o...
