We derive recursive and direct formulas for the interweight distribution of an equitable partition of a hypercube. The formulas involve a three-variable generalization of the Krawtchouk polynomials.

Let G = (V,E) be an undirected graph and let π = {V1, V2, . . . , Vk} be a partition of the vertices V of G into k blocks Vi. From this partition one can construct the following digraph D(π) = (π,E(π)), the vertices of which correspond one-to-one with the k blocks Vi of π, and there is an arc from Vi to Vj if every vertex in Vj is adjacent to at least one vertex in Vi, that is, Vi dominates Vj ...

In graph theory a partition of the vertex set of a graph is called equitable if for all pairs of cells all vertices in one cell have an equal number of neighbours in the other cell. Considering the implications for the adjacency matrix one may generalize that concept as a block partition of a complex square matrix s.t. each block has constant row sum. It is well known that replacing each block ...

Let G be a simple graph without isolated vertices with vertex set V (G) and edge set E(G) and let k be a positive integer. A function f : E(G) −→ {−1, 1} is said to be a signed star k-dominating function on G if ∑ e∈E(v) f(e) ≥ k for every vertex v of G, where E(v) = {uv ∈ E(G) | u ∈ N(v)}. A set {f1, f2, . . . , fd} of signed star k-dominating functions on G with the property that ∑d i=1 fi(e)...

Let be a graph. If  , G V E    is a function from the vertex set   V G to the set of positive integers. Then two vertices are   G , u v V   -equitable if     1 u v     . By the degree, equitable adjacency between vertices can be redefine almost all of the variants of the graphs. In this paper we study the degree equitability of the graph by defining equitable connectivity, equ...

Let k ≥ j ≥ 1 be two integers, and letG be a simple graph such that j(δ(G)+1) ≥ k, where δ(G) is the minimum degree of G. A (j, k)-dominating function of a graph G is a function f from the vertex set V (G) to the set {0, 1, 2, . . . , j} such that for any vertex v ∈ V (G), the condition ∑ u∈N[v] f(u) ≥ k is fulfilled, where N [v] is the closed neighborhood of v. A set {f1, f2, . . . , fd} of (j...

Let G = (V,E) be an undirected graph, where V is the set of vertices and E is that of edges. An equitable k-coloring of G is a partition of V into k disjoint stable subsets such that the difference on the cardinalities of any two subsets is at most one. Each subset is associated with a color and called a color set. The Equitable Coloring Problem (ECP) consists of finding the minimum value of k ...
