چکیده
We introduce a new class of planar graphs called triangle graphs. First, we present a formal way of constructing and characterizing triangle graphs, and then show that they characterize the adjacencies of arbitrary triangulations and they are three-colorable for a certain subclass of triangulations. Subsequently, we discuss an application of triangle graphs to the parallel nite element solution of elliptic partial diierential equations on triangulated domains.

Long heterochromatic paths in heterochromatic triangle free graphs ∗
In this paper, graphs under consideration are always edge-colored. We consider long heterochromatic paths in heterochromatic triangle free graphs. Two kinds of such graphs are considered, one is complete graphs with Gallai colorings, i.e., heterochromatic triangle free complete graphs; the other is heterochromatic triangle free graphs with k-good colorings, i.e., minimum color degree at least k...
متن کاملThe Recognition of Triangle Graphs
Trapezoid graphs are the intersection graphs of trapezoids,where every trapezoid has a pair of opposite sides lying on two parallel lines L1 and L2 of the plane. This subclass of perfect graphs has received considerable attention as it generalizes in a natural way both interval and permutation graphs. In particular, trapezoid graphs have been introduced in order to generalize some well known ap...
متن کاملMaximal outerplanar graphs as chordal graphs, path-neighborhood graphs, and triangle graphs
Maximal outerplanar graphs are characterized using three different classes of graphs. A path-neighborhood graph is a connected graph in which every neighborhood induces a path. The triangle graph T (G) has the triangles of the graph G as its vertices, two of these being adjacent whenever as triangles in G they share an edge. A graph is edge-triangular if every edge is in at least one triangle. ...
متن کاملColouring vertices of triangle-free graphs without forests
The vertex colouring problem is known to be NP-complete in the class of triangle-free graphs. Moreover, it is NP-complete in any subclass of triangle-free graphs defined by a finite collection of forbidden induced subgraphs, each of which contains a cycle. In this paper, we study the vertex colouring problem in subclasses of triangle-free graphs obtained by forbidding graphs without cycles, i.e...
متن کاملOn minimal triangle-free 6-chromatic graphs
A graph with chromatic number k is called k-chromatic. Using computational methods, we show that the smallest triangle-free 6-chromatic graphs have at least 32 and at most 40 vertices. We also determine the complete set of all triangle-free 5-chromatic graphs up to 23 vertices and all triangle-free 5-chromatic graphs on 24 vertices with maximum degree at most 7. This implies that Reed’s conject...
