Contractive Digraphs and Splicing Machines

نویسنده

  • ANDREW VINCE
چکیده

Contractive digraphs and splicing machines, notions that seem to be new in the theory of directed graphs, are introduced. The existence and uniqueness of the central object, the attractor of a contractive digraph, is proved, and the attractor is shown to be the unique fixed point of a natural operator defined on sets of vertices of the digraph. The attractor of a contractive digraph is then shown to be splicing machine. Motivation comes, on the theoretical side, from the Banach fixed point theorem, and, on the applied side, from the splicing of sequences from a finite alphabet.

Common fixed points for a pair of mappings in $b$-Metric spaces via digraphs and altering distance functions

In this paper, we discuss the existence and uniqueness of points of coincidence and common fixed points for a pair of self-mappings satisfying some generalized contractive type conditions in $b$-metric spaces endowed with graphs and altering distance functions. Finally, some examples are provided to justify the validity of our results.

More skew-equienergetic digraphs

Two digraphs of same order are said to be skew-equienergetic if their skew energies are equal. One of the open problems proposed by Li and Lian was to construct non-cospectral skew-equienergetic digraphs on n vertices. Recently this problem was solved by Ramane et al. In this  paper, we give some new methods to construct new skew-equienergetic digraphs.

Vertex Removable Cycles of Graphs and Digraphs

‎In this paper we defined the vertex removable cycle in respect of the following‎, ‎if $F$ is a class of graphs(digraphs)‎ ‎satisfying certain property‎, ‎$G in F $‎, ‎the cycle $C$ in $G$ is called vertex removable if $G-V(C)in in F $.‎ ‎The vertex removable cycles of eulerian graphs are studied‎. ‎We also characterize the edge removable cycles of regular‎ ‎graphs(digraphs).‎

Sufficient conditions on the zeroth-order general Randic index for maximally edge-connected digraphs

Let D be a digraph with vertex set V(D) .For vertex v V(D), the degree of v, denoted by d(v), is defined as the minimum value if its out-degree  and its in-degree . Now let D be a digraph with minimum degree  and edge-connectivity If  is real number, then the zeroth-order general Randic index is defined by   .  A digraph is maximally edge-connected if . In this paper we present sufficient condi...

On spectral radius of strongly connected digraphs

 It is known that the directed cycle of order $n$ uniquely achieves the minimum spectral radius among all strongly connected digraphs of order $nge 3$. In this paper, among others, we determine the digraphs which achieve the second, the third and the fourth minimum spectral radii respectively among strongly connected digraphs of order $nge 4$.
