Diameter vulnerability of graphs by edge deletion
نویسندگان
چکیده
Let f (t, k) be the maximum diameter of graphs obtained by deleting t edges from a (t+1)-edge-connected graph with diameter k. This paper shows 4 √ 2t−6 < f (t, 3) ≤ max{59, 5 √ 2t+7} for t ≥ 4, which corrects an improper result in [C. Peyrat, Diameter vulnerability of graphs, Discrete Appl. Math. 9 (3) (1984) 245–250] and also determines f (2, k) = 3k − 1 and f (3, k) = 4k − 2 for k ≥ 3. c © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Edge-tenacity in Networks
Numerous networks as, for example, road networks, electrical networks and communication networks can be modeled by a graph. Many attempts have been made to determine how well such a network is "connected" or stated differently how much effort is required to break down communication in the system between at least some nodes. Two well-known measures that indicate how "reliable" a graph is are the...
متن کاملOn the edge-integrity of some graphs and their complements
In this paper the authors study the edge-integrity of graphs. Edge-integrity is a very useful measure of the vulnerability of a network, in particular a communication network, to disruption through the deletion of edges. A number of problems are examined, including some Nordhaus-Gaddum type results. Honest graphs, i.e. those which have the maximum possible edge-integrity, are also investigated....
متن کاملA characterization of diameter-2-critical graphs with no antihole of length four
A graph G is diameter-2-critical if its diameter is two and the deletion of any edge increases the diameter. In this paper we characterize the diameter-2-critical graphs with no antihole of length four, that is, the diameter-2-critical graphs whose complements have no induced 4-cycle. Murty and Simon conjectured that the number of edges in a diameter-2-critical graph of order n is at most n2/4 ...
متن کاملSome Edge Cut Sets and an Upper bound for Edge Tenacity of Organic Compounds CnH2n+2
The graphs play an important role in our daily life. For example, the urban transport network can be represented by a graph, as the intersections are the vertices and the streets are the edges of the graph. Suppose that some edges of the graph are removed, the question arises, how damaged the graph is. There are some criteria for measuring the vulnerability of graph; the...
متن کاملA Survey on Complexity of Integrity Parameter
Many graph theoretical parameters have been used to describe the vulnerability of communication networks, including toughness, binding number, rate of disruption, neighbor-connectivity, integrity, mean integrity, edgeconnectivity vector, l-connectivity and tenacity. In this paper we discuss Integrity and its properties in vulnerability calculation. The integrity of a graph G, I(G), is defined t...
