Maximum Leaf Spanning Tree Problem for Grid Graphs
نویسنده
چکیده
The complexity of the maximum leaf spanning tree problem for grid graphs is currently unknown. We determine the maximum number of leaves in a grid graph with up to 4 rows and with 6 rows. Furthermore, we give some constructions of spanning trees of grid graphs with a large number of leaves.

On the Parameterized Max-Leaf Problems: Digraphs and Undirected Graphs∗
The parameterized max-leaf problem on undirected graphs (which is also named the max-leaf spanning-tree problem) is formulated as follows: given an undirected graph G and a parameter k, either construct a spanning tree with at least k leaves for G or report ‘No’ if such a tree does not exist. The problem also has a version for directed graphs that is named the max-leaf out-branching problem. In...
متن کاملCounting the number of spanning trees of graphs
A spanning tree of graph G is a spanning subgraph of G that is a tree. In this paper, we focus our attention on (n,m) graphs, where m = n, n + 1, n + 2, n+3 and n + 4. We also determine some coefficients of the Laplacian characteristic polynomial of fullerene graphs.
متن کاملA Self-stabilizing 3-Approximation for the Maximum Leaf Spanning Tree Problem in Arbitrary Networks
The maximum leaf spanning tree (MLST) is a good candidate for constructing a virtual backbone in self-organized multihop wireless networks, but is practically intractable (NP-complete). Self-stabilization is a general technique that permits to recover from catastrophic transient failures in self-organized networks without human intervention. We propose a fully distributed self-stabilizing appro...
متن کاملMaximum colored trees in edge-colored graphs
Abstract We consider maximum properly edge-colored trees in edge-colored graphs Gc. We also consider the problem where, given a vertex r, determine whether the graph has a spanning tree rooted at r, such that all root-to-leaf paths are properly colored. We consider these problems from graphtheoretic as well as algorithmic viewpoints. We prove their optimization versions to be NP-hard in general...
متن کاملApproximation hardness of dominating set problems in bounded degree graphs
We study approximation hardness of the Minimum Dominating Set problem and its variants in undirected and directed graphs. Using a similar result obtained by Trevisan for Minimum Set Cover we prove the first explicit approximation lower bounds for various kinds of domination problems (connected, total, independent) in bounded degree graphs. Asymptotically, for degree bound approaching infinity, ...
