Total interval number for graphs with bounded degree
نویسندگان
چکیده
The total interval number of an n-vertex graph with maximum degree ∆ is at most (∆+1/∆)n/2, with equality if and only if every component of the graph is K∆,∆. If the graph is also required to be connected, then the maximum is ∆n/2+1 when ∆ is even, but when ∆ is odd it exceeds [∆+1/(2.5∆+7.7)]n/2 for infinitely many n. c © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

k-forested choosability of graphs with bounded maximum average degree
A proper vertex coloring of a simple graph is $k$-forested if the graph induced by the vertices of any two color classes is a forest with maximum degree less than $k$. A graph is $k$-forested $q$-choosable if for a given list of $q$ colors associated with each vertex $v$, there exists a $k$-forested coloring of $G$ such that each vertex receives a color from its own list. In this paper, we prov...
متن کاملTenacity and some other Parameters of Interval Graphs can be computed in polynomial time
In general, computation of graph vulnerability parameters is NP-complete. In past, some algorithms were introduced to prove that computation of toughness, scattering number, integrity and weighted integrity parameters of interval graphs are polynomial. In this paper, two different vulnerability parameters of graphs, tenacity and rupture degree are defined. In general, computing the tenacity o...
متن کاملComplexity and approximation ratio of semitotal domination in graphs
A set $S subseteq V(G)$ is a semitotal dominating set of a graph $G$ if it is a dominating set of $G$ andevery vertex in $S$ is within distance 2 of another vertex of $S$. Thesemitotal domination number $gamma_{t2}(G)$ is the minimumcardinality of a semitotal dominating set of $G$.We show that the semitotal domination problem isAPX-complete for bounded-degree graphs, and the semitotal dominatio...
متن کاملPhysical Maps and Interval Sandwich Problems: Bounded Degrees Help
The problems of Interval Sandwich (IS) and Intervalizing Colored Graphs (ICG) have received a lot of attention recently, due to their applicability to DNA physical mapping problems with ambiguous data. Most of the results obtained so far on the problems were hardness results. Here we study the problems under assumptions of sparseness, which hold in the biological context. We prove that both pro...
متن کاملThree ways to cover a graph
We consider the problem of covering a host graph G with several graphs from a fixed template class T . The classical covering number of G with respect to T is the minimum number of template graphs needed to cover the edges of G. We introduce two new parameters: the local and the folded covering number. Each parameter measures how far G is from the template class in a different way. Whereas the ...
متن کاملThe maximal total irregularity of some connected graphs
The total irregularity of a graph G is defined as 〖irr〗_t (G)=1/2 ∑_(u,v∈V(G))▒〖|d_u-d_v |〗, where d_u denotes the degree of a vertex u∈V(G). In this paper by using the Gini index, we obtain the ordering of the total irregularity index for some classes of connected graphs, with the same number of vertices.
