Geometric Representations of Graphs

چکیده

The study of geometrically defined graphs, and of the reverse question, the construction of geometric representations of graphs, leads to unexpected connections between geometry and graph theory. We survey the surprisingly large variety of graph properties related to geometric representations, construction methods for geometric representations, and their applications in proofs and algorithms.

Classification and properties of acyclic discrete phase-type distributions based on geometric and shifted geometric distributions

Acyclic phase-type distributions form a versatile model, serving as approximations to many probability distributions in various circumstances. They exhibit special properties and characteristics that usually make their applications attractive. Compared to acyclic continuous phase-type (ACPH) distributions, acyclic discrete phase-type (ADPH) distributions and their subclasses (ADPH family) have ...

On-Line Approach to Off-Line Coloring Problems on Graphs with Geometric Representations

The main goal of this paper is to formalize and explore a connection between chromatic properties of graphs with geometric representations and competitive analysis of on-line algorithms, which became apparent after the recent construction of triangle-free geometric intersection graphs with arbitrarily large chromatic number due to Pawlik et al. We show that on-line graph coloring problems give ...

On Third Geometric-Arithmetic Index of Graphs

Continuing the work K. C. Das, I. Gutman, B. Furtula, On second geometric-arithmetic index of graphs, Iran. J. Math Chem., 1(2) (2010) 17-28, in this paper we present lower and upper bounds on the third geometric-arithmetic index GA3 and characterize the extremal graphs. Moreover, we give Nordhaus-Gaddum-type result for GA3.

The second geometric-arithmetic index for trees and unicyclic graphs

Let $G$ be a finite and simple graph with edge set $E(G)$. The second geometric-arithmetic index is defined as $GA_2(G)=sum_{uvin E(G)}frac{2sqrt{n_un_v}}{n_u+n_v}$, where $n_u$ denotes the number of vertices in $G$ lying closer to $u$ than to $v$. In this paper we find a sharp upper bound for $GA_2(T)$, where $T$ is tree, in terms of the order and maximum degree o...

On Second Geometric-Arithmetic Index of Graphs

The concept of geometric-arithmetic indices (GA) was put forward in chemical graph theory very recently. In spite of this, several works have already appeared dealing with these indices. In this paper we present lower and upper bounds on the second geometric-arithmetic index (GA2) and characterize the extremal graphs. Moreover, we establish Nordhaus-Gaddum-type results for GA2.
