Planar Graphs and Partial k-Trees

It is well-known that many NP-hard problems can be solved efficiently on graphs of bounded treewidth. We begin by showing that Knuth’s results on nested satisfiability are easily derived from this fact since nested satisfiability graphs have treewidth at most three. Noting that nested satisfiability graphs have a particular form of planar drawing, we define a more general form of graph drawing ...

The least eigenvalue of graphs whose complements are unicyclic

A graph in a certain graph class is called minimizing if the least eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix attains the minimum among all graphs in that class. Bell et al. have identified a subclass within the connected graphs of order n and size m in which minimizing graphs belong (the complements of such graphs are either disconnected or contain a clique of size n 2 ). In this paper we discuss the ...

Properties, Proved and Conjectured, of Keller, Mycielski, and Queen Graphs

We prove several results about three families of graphs. For queen graphs, defined from the usual moves of a chess queen, we find the edge-chromatic number in almost all cases. In the unproved case, we have a conjecture supported by a vast amount of computation, which involved the development of a new edge-coloring algorithm. The conjecture is that the edge-chromatic number is the maximum degre...

Decomposing 4-connected planar triangulations into two trees and one path

Refining a classical proof of Whitney, we show that any 4-connected planar triangulation can be decomposed into a Hamiltonian path and two trees. Therefore, every 4-connected planar graph decomposes into three forests, one having maximum degree at most 2. We use this result to show that any Hamiltonian planar triangulation can be decomposed into two trees and one spanning tree of maximum degree...

On locally irregular decompositions of subcubic graphs

A graph G is locally irregular if every two adjacent vertices of G have different degrees. A locally irregular decomposition of G is a partition E1, ..., Ek of E(G) such that each G[Ei] is locally irregular. Not all graphs admit locally irregular decompositions, but for those who are decomposable, in that sense, it was conjectured by Baudon, Bensmail, Przyby lo and Woźniak that they decompose i...
