Heavy cycles passing through some specified vertices in weighted graphs

چکیده
A weighted graph is one in which every edge e is assigned a nonnegative number, called the weight of e. The sum of the weights of the edges incident with a vertex v is called the weighted degree of v. The weight of a cycle is defined as the sum of the weights of its edges. In this paper, we prove that: (1) if G is a 2-connected weighted graph such that the minimum weighted degree of G is at least d, then for every given vertices x and y, either G contains a cycle of weight at least 2d passing through both of x and y or every heaviest cycle in G is a hamiltonian cycle, and (2) if G is a 2-connected weighted graph such that the weighted degree sum of every pair of nonadjacent vertices is at least s, then for every vertex y, G contains either a cycle of weight at least s passing through y or a hamiltonian cycle.

Heavy fans, cycles and paths in weighted graphs of large connectivity
A set of paths joining a vertex y and a vertex set L is called (y, L)-fan if any two of the paths have only y in common, and its width is the number of paths forming it. In weighted graphs, it is known that the existence of heavy fan is useful to find a heavy cycle containing some specified vertices. In this paper, we show the existence of heavy fans with large width containing some specified v...
متن کاملWeighted degrees and heavy cycles in weighted graphs
A weighted graph is a graph provided with an edge-weighting function w from the edge set to nonnegative real numbers. Bondy and Fan [Annals of Discrete Math. 41 (1989), 53– 69] began the study on the existence of heavy cycles in weighted graphs. Though several results with Dirac-type degree condition can be generalized to Ore-type one in unweighted graphs, it is shown in [Bondy et al., Discuss....
متن کاملPairs of forbidden class of subgraphs concerning K1, 3 and P6 to have a cycle containing specified vertices
In [3], Faudree and Gould showed that if a 2-connected graph contains no K1,3 and P6 as an induced subgraph, then the graph is hamiltonian. In this paper, we consider the extension of this result to cycles passing through specified vertices. We define the families of graphs which are extension of the forbidden pair K1,3 and P6, and prove that the forbidden families implies the existence of cycl...

In this paper, we prove that a 2-connected weighted graph G contains either a Hamilton cycle or a cycle of weight at least 2m/3 if it satisfies the following conditions: (1) ∑3 i=1 d (vi) ≥ m, where v1, v2 and v3 are three pairwise nonadjacent vertices of G, and two of them are nonadjacent vertices of an induced claw or an induced modified claw; (2) In each induced claw and each induced modifie...
