Constructing vertex decomposable graphs

In this paper, we present a new method for constructing vertex decomposable graphs. Then we use this construction to generalize the result due to Cook and Nagel.

A graph G of order n is said to be arbitrarily vertex decomposable if for each sequence (n1, . . . , nk) of positive integers such that n1 + · · · + nk = n there exists a partition (V1, . . . , Vk) of the vertex set of G such that for each i ∈ {1, . . . , k}, Vi induces a connected subgraph of G on ni vertices. The main result of the paper reads as follows. Suppose that G is a connected graph o...

A graph G = (V,E) is arbitrarily vertex decomposable if for any sequence τ of positive integers adding up to |V |, there is a sequence of vertex-disjoint subsets of V whose orders are given by τ , and which induce connected graphs. The main aim of this paper is to study the recursive version of this problem. We present a solution for trees, suns, and partially for a class of 2-connected graphs ...
full textVertex Decomposable Simplicial Complexes Associated to Path Graphs
Introduction Vertex decomposability of a simplicial complex is a combinatorial topological concept which is related to the algebraic properties of the Stanley-Reisner ring of the simplicial complex. This notion was first defined by Provan and Billera in 1980 for k-decomposable pure complexes which is known as vertex decomposable when . Later Bjorner and Wachs extended this concept to non-pure ...
full textVertex Decomposable Graphs and Obstructions to Shellability
Inspired by several recent papers on the edge ideal of a graph G, we study the equivalent notion of the independence complex of G. Using the tool of vertex decomposability from geometric combinatorics, we show that 5-chordal graphs with no chordless 4-cycles are shellable and sequentially Cohen-Macaulay. We use this result to characterize the obstructions to shellability in flag complexes, exte...

A graph G of order n is said to be arbitrarily vertex decomposable if for each sequence (n1, ..., nk) of positive integers such that n1 + ... + nk = n there exists a partition (V1, ..., Vk) of the vertex set of G such that for each i ∈ {1, ..., k}, Vi induces a connected subgraph of G on ni vertices. In this paper we show that if G is a two-connected graph on n vertices with the independence nu...
