We treat zeta functions and complexities of semiregular bipartite graphs. Furthermore, we give formulas for zeta function and the complexity of a line graph of a semiregular bipartite graph. As a corollary, we present the complexity of a line graph of a complete bipartite graph. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The notion of graph powers is a well-studied topic in graph theory and its applications. In this paper, we investigate a bipartite analogue of graph powers, which we call bipartite powers of bigraphs. We show that the classes of bipartite permutation graphs and interval bigraphs are closed under taking bipartite power. We also show that the problem of recognizing bipartite powers is NP-complete...

Our construction of error-correcting codes will exploit bipartite expander graphs (as these give a much cleaner construction than the general case). Let’s begin by examining what a bipartite expander graph should look like. It’s vertex set will have two parts, U and V , each having n vertices. Every vertex will have degree d, and every edge will go from a vertex in U to a vertex in V . In the s...

let $r$ be a commutative ring with identity and $mathbb{a}(r)$ be the set   of ideals of $r$ with non-zero annihilators. in this paper, we first introduce and investigate the principal ideal subgraph of the annihilating-ideal graph of $r$, denoted by $mathbb{ag}_p(r)$. it is a (undirected) graph with vertices $mathbb{a}_p(r)=mathbb{a}(r)cap mathbb{p}(r)setminus {(0)}$, where   $mathbb{p}(r)$ is...

An almost-bipartite graph is a non-bipartite graph with the property that the removal of a particular single edge renders the graph bipartite. A graph labeling of an almost-bipartite graph G with n edges that yields cyclic G-decompositions of the complete graph K2nt+1 was recently introduced by Blinco, El-Zanati, and Vanden Eynden. They called such a labeling a γ-labeling. Here we show that the...

A complete graph is the graph in which every two vertices are adjacent. For a graph G = (V,E), the complete width of G is the minimum k such that there exist k independent sets Ni ⊆ V , 1 ≤ i ≤ k, such that the graph G obtained from G by adding some new edges between certain vertices inside the sets Ni, 1 ≤ i ≤ k, is a complete graph. The complete width problem is to decide whether the complete...

Many problems studied in graph theory are graph decomposition problems. The minimum number of complete bipartite graphs needed to partition the edges of a bipartite graph. is one of these problem and it is still open. We propose a NP-completness proof for its decision version and we show that it is polynomial on bipartite C4-free graphs.
