Abstract We consider optimal attacks or immunization schemes on different models of random graphs. We derive bounds for the minimum number of nodes needed to be removed from a network such that all remaining components are fragments of negligible size.We obtain bounds for different regimes of random regular graphs, Erdős-Rényi random graphs, and scale free networks, some of which are tight. We show that the performance of attacks by degree is bounded away from optimality.Finally we present a polynomial time attack algorithm and prove its optimal performance in certain cases.

A proper $k$-edge coloring of a graph $G$ is an assignment of $k$ colors, $1,2,\cdots,k$, to edges of $G$. For a proper edge coloring $f$ of $G$ and any vertex $x$ of $G$, we use $S(x)$ denote the set of thecolors assigned to the edges incident to $x$. If for any two adjacent vertices $u$ and $v$ of $G$, we have $S(u)\neq S(v)$,then $f$ is called the adjacent vertex distinguishing proper edge coloring of $G$ (or AVDPEC of $G$ in brief). The minimum number of colors required in an AVDPEC of $G$ is called the adjacent vertex distinguishing proper edge chromatic number of $G$, denoted by $\chi^{'}_{\mathrm{a}}(G)$. In this paper, adjacent vertex distinguishing proper edge chromatic numbers of several classes of complete 5-partite graphs are obtained.

Let k3reg(n, d) be the minimum number of triangles in d-regular graphs with n vertices. We find the exact value of k3reg(n, d) for d between $2n /5 + 12 \sqrt{n}/5$ and n/2. In addition, we identify the structure of the extremal graphs.

The Relationship

Let G be a simple graph. A dominator edge coloring (DE-coloring) of G is a proper edge coloring in which each edge of G is adjacent to every edge of some color class (possibly its own class). The dominator edge chromatic number (DEC-number) of G is the minimum number of color classes among all dominator edge colorings of G , denoted by χ d ′ G . In this paper, we establish the bounds of the DEC-number of a graph, present the DEC-number of special graphs, and study the relationship of the DEC-number between G and the operations of G .

Rich History

The study of the number of independent sets in a graph has a rich history. Recently, Kahn proved that disjoint unions of $K_{r,r}$'s have the maximum number of independent sets amongst $r$-regular bipartite graphs. Zhao extended this to all $r$-regular graphs. If we instead restrict the class of graphs to those on a fixed number of vertices and edges, then the Kruskal-Katona theorem implies that the graph with the maximum number of independent sets is the lex graph, where edges form an initial segment of the lexicographic ordering. In this paper, we study three related questions. Firstly, we prove that the lex graph has the maximum number of weighted independent sets for any appropriate weighting. Secondly, we solve the problem of maximizing the number of independents sets in graphs with specified independence number or clique number. Finally, for $m\leq n$, we find the graphs with the minimum number of independent sets for graphs with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges.
