Even and odd pairs in linegraphs of bipartite graphs
نویسنده
چکیده
Two vertices in a graph are called an even pair (odd pair) if all induced paths between these two vertices have even (odd) length. Even and odd pairs have turned out to be of importance in conjunction with perfect graphs. We will characterize all linegraphs of bipartite graphs that contain an even resp. odd pair. In general, it is a co-NP-complete problem to decide whether a graph contains an even pair. For the class of linegraphs of bipartite graphs we will show that testing for even resp. odd pairs can be done in polynomial time.

Skolem Odd Difference Mean Graphs
In this paper we define a new labeling called skolem odd difference mean labeling and investigate skolem odd difference meanness of some standard graphs. Let G = (V,E) be a graph with p vertices and q edges. G is said be skolem odd difference mean if there exists a function f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2, 3, . . . , p + 3q − 3} satisfying f is 1−1 and the induced map f : E(G) → {1, 3, 5, . . . , 2q−1} de...
متن کاملRemainder Cordial Labeling of Graphs
In this paper we introduce remainder cordial labeling of graphs. Let $G$ be a $(p,q)$ graph. Let $f:V(G)rightarrow {1,2,...,p}$ be a $1-1$ map. For each edge $uv$ assign the label $r$ where $r$ is the remainder when $f(u)$ is divided by $f(v)$ or $f(v)$ is divided by $f(u)$ according as $f(u)geq f(v)$ or $f(v)geq f(u)$. The function$f$ is called a remainder cordial labeling of $G$ if $left| e_{...
متن کاملOriented Bipartite Graphs and the Goldbach Graph
In this paper we study oriented bipartite graphs. In particular, several characterizations of bitournaments are obtained. We introduce the concept of odd-even graphs and show that any (oriented) bipartite graph can be represented by some (oriented) odd-even graph. We show that the famous Goldbach’s conjecture is equivalent to the connectedness of certain odd-even graphs.
متن کاملMETA-HEURISTIC ALGORITHMS FOR MINIMIZING THE NUMBER OF CROSSING OF COMPLETE GRAPHS AND COMPLETE BIPARTITE GRAPHS
The minimum crossing number problem is among the oldest and most fundamental problems arising in the area of automatic graph drawing. In this paper, eight population-based meta-heuristic algorithms are utilized to tackle the minimum crossing number problem for two special types of graphs, namely complete graphs and complete bipartite graphs. A 2-page book drawing representation is employed for ...
متن کاملA Characterization of Weakly Bipartite Graphs
A labeled graph is said to be weakly bipartite if the clutter of its odd cycles is ideal. Seymour conjectured that a labeled graph is weakly bipartite if and only if it does not contain a minor called an oddK5. A proof of this conjecture is given in this paper. Let G = (V;E) be a graph and E. We call edges in odd and edges in E even. The pair (G; ) is called a labeled graph. A subset L E(G) is ...
