چکیده

SolC. P. and T. Zaslavsky, The covering radius of the cycle code of a graph, Discrete Applied Mathematics 45 (I 993) 63-70. The cycle code of a graph is the binary linear span of the characteristic vectors of circuits. We exploit a connection between the covering radius of this code and minimum T-joins. We obtain a lower bound on the covering radius which is met with equality when the graph is Hamiltonian or is regular and has edge connectivity equal to its degree. We also solve several other examples and we note some cycle codes which are optimal for the covering problem.

The remoteness of the permutation code of the group $U_{6n}$

Recently, a new parameter of a code, referred to as the remoteness, has been introduced.This parameter can be viewed as a dual to the covering radius. It is exactly determined for the cyclic and dihedral groups. In this paper, we consider the group $U_{6n}$ as a subgroup of $S_{2n+3}$ and obtain its remoteness.  We show that the remoteness of the permutation code $U_{6n}$ is $2n+2$.  Moreover, ...

Dynamic Hub Covering Problem with Flexible Covering Radius

Abstract One of the basic assumptions in hub covering problems is considering the covering radius as an exogenous parameter which cannot be controlled by the decision maker. Practically and in many real world cases with a negligible increase in costs, to increase the covering radii, it is possible to save the costs of establishing additional hub nodes. Change in problem parameters during the pl...

The topological ordering of covering nodes

The topological ordering algorithm sorts nodes of a directed graph such that the order of the tail of each arc is lower than the order of its head. In this paper, we introduce the notion of covering between nodes of a directed graph. Then, we apply the topological orderingalgorithm on graphs containing the covering nodes. We show that there exists a cut set withforward arcs in these...

A multiobjective continuous covering location model

This paper presents a multiobjective continuous covering location problem in fuzzy environment. Because of uncertain covering radius, possibility of covering concept is introduced.Since, the uncertainty may cause risk of uncovering customers; the problemis formulated as a risk management model. The presented model is an extension of the discrete covering location models tocontinuous space. Two ...

Diameter Two Graphs of Minimum Order with Given Degree Set

The degree set of a graph is the set of its degrees. Kapoor et al. [Degree sets for graphs, Fund. Math. 95 (1977) 189-194] proved that for every set of positive integers, there exists a graph of diameter at most two and radius one with that degree set. Furthermore, the minimum order of such a graph is determined. A graph is 2-self- centered if its radius and diameter are two. In this paper for ...
