چکیده

In this paper, the total chromatic number and fractional total chromatic number of circulant graphs are studied. For cubic circulant graphs we give upper bounds on the fractional total chromatic number and for 4-regular circulant graphs we find the total chromatic number for some cases and we give the exact value of the fractional total chromatic number in most cases.

2-Tuple Total Domination Number in Circulant Graphs

In this paper, a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of an efficient 2-dominating set in a class of circulant graphs has been obtained and for those circulant graphs, an upper bound for the 2domination number is also obtained. For the circulant graphs Cir(n,A), where A = {1, 2, . . . , x, n − 1, n − 2, . . . , n − x} and x ≤ bn−1 2 c, the perfect 2-tuple total domination number...

Fractional total colourings of graphs of high girth

Reed conjectured that for every > 0 and ∆ there exists g such that the fractional total chromatic number of a graph with maximum degree ∆ and girth at least g is at most ∆ + 1 + . We prove the conjecture for ∆ = 3 and for even ∆ ≥ 4 in the following stronger form: For each of these values of ∆, there exists g such that the fractional total chromatic number of any graph with maximum degree ∆ and...

Recent developments in total colouring

This paper gives a number of recent results concerning total colourings and suggests that recolouring schemes which are somewhat more complex than those currently being considered, need to be developed. Some examples of graphs and colourings which support this assertion are presented. The aim of this paper is firstly to publicise a number of recent results concerning total colourings and second...

Equitable neighbour-sum-distinguishing edge and total colourings

With any (not necessarily proper) edge k-colouring γ : E(G) −→ {1, . . . , k} of a graph G, one can associate a vertex colouring σγ given by σγ(v) = ∑ e∋v γ(e). A neighbour-sumdistinguishing edge k-colouring is an edge colouring whose associated vertex colouring is proper. The neighbour-sum-distinguishing index of a graph G is then the smallest k for which G admits a neighbour-sum-distinguishin...

Powers of cycles, powers of paths, and distance graphs

In 1988, Golumbic and Hammer characterized powers of cycles, relating them to circular-arc graphs. We extend their results and propose several further structural characterizations for both powers of cycles and powers of paths. The characterizations lead to linear-time recognition algorithms of these classes of graphs. Furthermore, as a generalization of powers of cycles, powers of paths, and ev...
