چکیده

We introduce the process number of a digraph as a tool to study rerouting issues in wdm networks. This parameter is closely related to the vertex separation (or pathwidth). We consider the recognition and the characterization of (di)graphs with small process number. In particular, we give a linear time algorithm to recognize (and process) graphs with process number at most 2, along with a characterization in terms of forbidden minors, and a structural description. As for digraphs with process number 2, we exhibit a characterization that allows to recognize (and process) them in polynomial time.

Vertex Removable Cycles of Graphs and Digraphs

‎In this paper we defined the vertex removable cycle in respect of the following‎, ‎if $F$ is a class of graphs(digraphs)‎ ‎satisfying certain property‎, ‎$G in F $‎, ‎the cycle $C$ in $G$ is called vertex removable if $G-V(C)in in F $.‎ ‎The vertex removable cycles of eulerian graphs are studied‎. ‎We also characterize the edge removable cycles of regular‎ ‎graphs(digraphs).‎

0n removable cycles in graphs and digraphs

In this paper we define the removable cycle that, if $Im$ is a class of graphs, $Gin Im$, the cycle $C$ in $G$ is called removable if $G-E(C)in Im$. The removable cycles in Eulerian graphs have been studied. We characterize Eulerian graphs which contain two edge-disjoint removable cycles, and the necessary and sufficient conditions for Eulerian graph to have removable cycles h...

More skew-equienergetic digraphs

Two digraphs of same order are said to be skew-equienergetic if their skew energies are equal. One of the open problems proposed by Li and Lian was to construct non-cospectral skew-equienergetic digraphs on n vertices. Recently this problem was solved by Ramane et al. In this  paper, we give some new methods to construct new skew-equienergetic digraphs.

Twin signed total Roman domatic numbers in digraphs

Let $D$ be a finite simple digraph with vertex set $V(D)$ and arcset $A(D)$. A twin signed total Roman dominating function (TSTRDF) on thedigraph $D$ is a function $f:V(D)rightarrow{-1,1,2}$ satisfyingthe conditions that (i) $sum_{xin N^-(v)}f(x)ge 1$ and$sum_{xin N^+(v)}f(x)ge 1$ for each $vin V(D)$, where $N^-(v)$(resp. $N^+(v)$) consists of all in-neighbors (resp.out-neighbors) of $v$, and (...
