On the complexity of finding chordless paths in bipartite graphs and some interval operators in graphs and hypergraphs

چکیده

In this paper we show that the problem of finding a chordless path between a vertex s and a vertex t containing a vertex v remains NP-complete in bipartite graphs, thereby strengthening previous results on the same problem. We show a relation between this problem and two interval operators: the simple path interval operator in hypergraphs and the even-chorded path interval operator in graphs. We show that the problem of computing the two mentioned intervals is NPcomplete.

CATEGORY OF (POM)L-FUZZY GRAPHS AND HYPERGRAPHS

In this note by considering a complete lattice L, we define thenotion of an L-Fuzzy hyperrelation on a given non-empty set X. Then wedefine the concepts of (POM)L-Fuzzy graph, hypergraph and subhypergroupand obtain some related results. In particular we construct the categories ofthe above mentioned notions, and give a (full and faithful) functor form thecategory of (POM)L-Fuzzy subhypergroups ...

Independent domination in directed graphs

In this paper we initialize the study of independent domination in directed graphs. We show that an independent dominating set of an orientation of a graph is also an independent dominating set of the underlying graph, but that the converse is not true in general. We then prove existence and uniqueness theorems for several classes of digraphs including orientations of complete graphs, paths, tr...

The p-median and p-center Problems on Bipartite Graphs

Let $G$ be a bipartite graph. In this paper we consider the two kind of location problems namely $p$-center and $p$-median problems on bipartite graphs. The $p$-center and $p$-median problems asks to find a subset of vertices of cardinality $p$, so that respectively the maximum and sum of the distances from this set to all other vertices in $G$ is minimized. For each case we present some proper...

Detour Monophonic Graphoidal Covering Number of Corona Product Graph of Some Standard Graphs with the Wheel

A chord of a path $P$ is an edge joining two non-adjacent vertices of $P$. A path  $P$ is called a monophonic path if it is a chordless path. A longest $x-y$ monophonic path is called an $x-y$ detour monophonic path. A  detour monophonic graphoidal cover of a graph $G$ is a collection $psi_{dm}$ of detour monophonic paths in $G$ such that every vertex of $G$ is an internal vertex  of at most on...

Some lower bounds for the $L$-intersection number of graphs

‎For a set of non-negative integers~$L$‎, ‎the $L$-intersection number of a graph is the smallest number~$l$ for which there is an assignment of subsets $A_v subseteq {1,dots‎, ‎l}$ to vertices $v$‎, ‎such that every two vertices $u,v$ are adjacent if and only if $|A_u cap A_v|in L$‎. ‎The bipartite $L$-intersection number is defined similarly when the conditions are considered only for the ver...
