چکیده

A co-bipartite chain graph is a co-bipartite graph in which the neighborhoods of the vertices in each clique can be linearly ordered with respect to inclusion. It is known that the maximum cut problem (MaxCut) is NP-hard in co-bipartite graphs [3]. We consider MaxCut in co-bipartite chain graphs. We first consider the twin-free case and present an explicit solution. We then show that MaxCut is polynomial time solvable in this graph class.

META-HEURISTIC ALGORITHMS FOR MINIMIZING THE NUMBER OF CROSSING OF COMPLETE GRAPHS AND COMPLETE BIPARTITE GRAPHS

The minimum crossing number problem is among the oldest and most fundamental problems arising in the area of automatic graph drawing. In this paper, eight population-based meta-heuristic algorithms are utilized to tackle the minimum crossing number problem for two special types of graphs, namely complete graphs and complete bipartite graphs. A 2-page book drawing representation is employed for ...

Bipartite matching extendable graphs

Matching extendability is significant in graph theory and its applications. The basic notion in this direction is n-extendability introduced by Plummer in 1980. Motivated by the different natures of bipartite matchings and non-bipartite matchings, this paper investigates bipartite-matching extendable (BM-extendable) graphs. A graph G is said to be BM-extendable if every matching M which is a pe...

On the Complexity of the Maximum Cut Problem

The complexity of the simple maxcut problem is investigated for several special classes of graphs. It is shown that this problem is NP-complete when restricted to one of the following classes: chordal graphs, undirected path graphs, split graphs, tripartite graphs, and graphs that are the complement of a bipartite graph. The problem can be solved in polynomial time, when restricted to graphs wi...

Maximum Weighted Induced Bipartite Subgraphs and Acyclic Subgraphs of Planar Cubic Graphs

We study the node-deletion problem consisting of finding a maximum weighted induced bipartite subgraph of a planar graph with maximum degree three. We show that this is polynomially solvable. It was shown in [4] that it is NP-complete if the maximum degree is four. We also extend these ideas to the problem of balancing signed graphs. We also consider maximum weighted induced acyclic subgraphs o...

The p-median and p-center Problems on Bipartite Graphs

Let $G$ be a bipartite graph. In this paper we consider the two kind of location problems namely $p$-center and $p$-median problems on bipartite graphs. The $p$-center and $p$-median problems asks to find a subset of vertices of cardinality $p$, so that respectively the maximum and sum of the distances from this set to all other vertices in $G$ is minimized. For each case we present some proper...
