The h-super connectivity κh and the h-super edge-connectivity λh are more refined network reliability indices than the connectivity and the edge-connectivity. This paper shows that for a connected balanced digraph D and its line digraph L, if D is optimally super edge-connected, then κ1(L) = 2λ1(D), and that for a connected graph G and its line graph L, if one of κ1(L) and λ2(G) exists, then κ1...

We show that a k-edge-connected graph on n vertices has at least n(k/2)n−1 spanning trees. This bound is tight if k is even and the extremal graph is the n-cycle with edge-multiplicities k/2. For k odd, however, there is a lower bound cn−1 k where ck > k/2. Specifically, c3 > 1.77 and c5 > 2.75. Not surprisingly, c3 is smaller than the corresponding number for 4-edge-connected graphs. Examples ...

An edge cut W of a connected graph G is a k-restricted edge cut if G−W is disconnected, and every component of G −W has at least k vertices. The k-restricted edge connectivity is defined as the minimum cardinality over all k-restricted edge cuts. A permutation graph is obtained by taking two disjoint copies of a graph and adding a perfect matching between the two copies. The k-restricted edge c...

Abstract : In this paper we introduced the concept of complementary super edge magic labeling and Complementary Super Edge Magic strength of a graph G.A graph G (V, E ) is said to be complementary super edge magic if there exist a bijection f:V U E → { 1, 2, ............p+q } such that p+q+1 f(x) is constant. Such a labeling is called complementary super edge magic labeling with complementary s...

the edge tenacity te(g) of a graph g is dened as:te(g) = min {[|x|+τ(g-x)]/[ω(g-x)-1]|x ⊆ e(g) and ω(g-x) > 1} where the minimum is taken over every edge-cutset x that separates g into ω(g - x) components, and by τ(g - x) we denote the order of a largest component of g. the objective of this paper is to determine this quantity for split graphs. let g = (z; i; e) be a noncomplete connected spli...

We prove a decomposition result for locally finite graphs which can be used to extend results on edge-connectivity from finite to infinite graphs. It implies that every 4k-edge-connected graph G contains an immersion of some finite 2k-edge-connected Eulerian graph containing any prescribed vertex set (while planar graphs show that G need not contain a subdivision of a simple finite graph of lar...
