چکیده

Let X be a set of multicolored points in the plane such that no three points are collinear and each color appears on at most ⌈|X|/2⌉ points. We show the existence of a non-crossing properly colored geometric perfect matching on X (if |X| is even), and the existence of a non-crossing properly colored geometric spanning tree with maximum degree at most 3 on X. Moreover, we show the existence of a non-crossing properly colored geometric perfect matching in the plane lattice. In order to prove these our results, we propose an useful lemma that gives a good partition of a sequence of multicolored points. Keyword(s): red and blue points, multicolored points, alternating matching, alternating tree, properly colored geometric graph, sequence of points. MSC2010: 52C35, 05C70, 05C05.

Plane Geodesic Spanning Trees, Hamiltonian Cycles, and Perfect Matchings in a Simple Polygon

Let S be a finite set of points in the interior of a simple polygon P . A geodesic graph, GP (S,E), is a graph with vertex set S and edge set E such that each edge (a, b) ∈ E is the shortest geodesic path between a and b inside P . GP is said to be plane if the edges in E do not cross. If the points in S are colored, then GP is said to be properly colored provided that, for each edge (a, b) ∈ E...

Maximum Plane Trees in Multipartite Geometric Graphs

A geometric graph is a graph whose vertices are points in the plane and whose edges are straight-line segments between the points. A plane spanning tree in a geometric graph is a spanning tree that is non-crossing. Let R and B be two disjoint sets of points in the plane where the points of R are colored red and the points of B are colored blue, and let n = |R ∪ B|. A bichromatic plane spanning ...

Multicolored Isomorphic Spanning Trees in Complete Graphs

In this paper, we first prove that if the edges of K2m are properly colored by 2m− 1 colors in such a way that any two colors induce a 2-factor of which each component is a 4-cycle, then K2m can be decomposed into m isomorphic multicolored spanning trees. Consequently, we show that there exist three disjoint isomorphic multicolored spanning trees in any properly (2m−1)-edge-colored K2m for m ≥ 14.

Augmenting a Geometric Matching is NP-complete

Given 2n points in the plane, it is well-known that there always exists a perfect straight-line non-crossing matching. We show that it is NP-complete to decide if a partial matching can be augmented to a perfect one, via a reduction from 1-in-3-SAT. This result also holds for bichromatic matchings. In a blitz chess tournament every player wants to play each round without pause and play against ...

Multicolored Parallelisms of Isomorphic Spanning Trees

A subgraph in an edge-colored graph is multicolored if all its edges receive distinct colors. In this paper, we prove that a complete graph on 2m (m = 2) vertices K2m can be properly edge-colored with 2m − 1 colors in such a way that the edges of K2m can be partitioned into m multicolored isomorphic spanning trees.
