A note on k-extendable graphs and independence number
نویسندگان
چکیده
An even order graph G with a perfect matching is k-extendable if for every matching M of size k in G, there exists a perfect matching in G containing all the edges of M. In this note, we estabUsh a necessary and sufficient condition for a graph to be k-extendable in terms of its independence number. All graphs considered in this note are finite, connected, loopless and have no multiple edges. For the most part our notation and terminology follows that of Bondy and Murty [1].

A note on 3-Prime cordial graphs
Let G be a (p, q) graph. Let f : V (G) → {1, 2, . . . , k} be a map. For each edge uv, assign the label gcd (f(u), f(v)). f is called k-prime cordial labeling of G if |vf (i) − vf (j)| ≤ 1, i, j ∈ {1, 2, . . . , k} and |ef (0) − ef (1)| ≤ 1 where vf (x) denotes the number of vertices labeled with x, ef (1) and ef (0) respectively denote the number of edges labeled with 1 and not labeled with 1....
متن کاملOn minimally k-extendable graphs
Let G be a simple connected graph on 2n vertices with a perfect matching. G is k-extendable if for any set M of k independent edges, there exists a perfect matching in G containing all the edges of M. G is minimally k-extendable if G is k-extendable but G-uv is not k-extendable for every pair of adjacent vertices u and v of G. The problem that arises is that of characterizing k-extendable and m...
متن کاملOn critically k-extendable graphs
Let G be a simple connected graph on 2n vertices with a perfect matching. G is k-extendable if for any set M of k independent edges, there exists a perfect matching in G containing all the edges of M. G is critically k-extendable if G is k-extendable but G + uv is not k-extendable for any non-adjacent pair of vertices u and v of G. The problem that arises is that of characterizing k-extendable ...
متن کاملk-Efficient partitions of graphs
A set $S = {u_1,u_2, ldots, u_t}$ of vertices of $G$ is an efficientdominating set if every vertex of $G$ is dominated exactly once by thevertices of $S$. Letting $U_i$ denote the set of vertices dominated by $u_i$%, we note that ${U_1, U_2, ldots U_t}$ is a partition of the vertex setof $G$ and that each $U_i$ contains the vertex $u_i$ and all the vertices atdistance~1 from it in $G$. In this ...
متن کاملA NOTE ON THE COMMUTING GRAPHS OF A CONJUGACY CLASS IN SYMMETRIC GROUPS
The commuting graph of a group is a graph with vertexes set of a subset of a group and two element are adjacent if they commute. The aim of this paper is to obtain the automorphism group of the commuting graph of a conjugacy class in the symmetric groups. The clique number, coloring number, independent number, and diameter of these graphs are also computed.
