Hamiltonicity, independence number, and pancyclicity

چکیده
A graph on n vertices is called pancyclic if it contains a cycle of length ` for all 3 ≤ ` ≤ n. In 1972, Erdős proved that if G is a Hamiltonian graph on n > 4k vertices with independence number k, then G is pancyclic. He then suggested that n = Ω(k) should already be enough to guarantee pancyclicity. Improving on his and some other later results, we prove that there exists a constant c such that n > ck suffices.

Pancyclicity of Hamiltonian and highly connected graphs
A graph G on n vertices is Hamiltonian if it contains a cycle of length n and pancyclic if it contains cycles of length ` for all 3 ≤ ` ≤ n. Write α(G) for the independence number of G, i.e. the size of the largest subset of the vertex set that does not contain an edge, and κ(G) for the (vertex) connectivity, i.e. the size of the smallest subset of the vertex set that can be deleted to obtain a...
متن کاملOn the independence number and Hamiltonicity of uniform random intersection graphs
In the uniform random intersection graphs model, denoted by G n,m,λ , to each vertex v we assign exactly λ randomly chosen labels of some label set M of m labels and we connect every pair of vertices that has at least one label in common. In this model, we estimate the independence number α(G n,m,λ), for the wide, interesting range m = n α , α < 1 and λ = O(m 1/4). We also prove the hamiltonici...
متن کاملIndependence and cycles in super line graphs
The super line graph of index r of a graph G has the r-sets of edges as its vertices, with two being adjacent if one has an edge that is adjacent to an edge in the other. In this paper, we continue our investigation of this graph by establishing two results, the first on the independence number of super line graphs of arbitrary index and the second on pancyclicity in the index-2 case.
متن کاملNode-pancyclicity and edge-pancyclicity of hypercube variants
Twisted cubes, crossed cubes, Möbius cubes, and locally twisted cubes are some of the widely studied hypercube variants. The 4-pancyclicity of twisted cubes, crossed cubes, Möbius cubes, locally twisted cubes and the 4-edgepancyclicity of crossed cubes are proven in [2, 1, 5, 10, 6] respectively. It should be noted that 4-edge-pancyclicity implies 4-node-pancyclicity which further implies 4-pan...
متن کاملk-ordered Graphs & Out-arc Pancyclicity on Digraphs
Diese Dissertation ist auf den Internetseiten der Hochschulbibliothek online verfügbar. Preface Graph theory as a very popular area of discrete mathematics has rapidly been developed over the last couple of decades. Numerous theoretical results and countless applications to practical problems have been discovered. The concepts of k-ordered graphs and out-arc pancyclicity are two recent topics i...
