In this paper it is determined when the line graphs and the middle graphs of some classes of graphs are divisor graphs. Complete characterizations for cycles, trees, complete graphs and complete multipartite graphs whose line graphs (middle graphs) are divisor graphs are obtained. It is also shown that the line graphs and the middle graphs of the cycle permutation graphs are never divisor graphs.

In this paper, we generalize the orthogonal double covers (ODC) of Kn,n as follows. The circular intensely orthogonal double cover design (CIODCD) of X=Kn,n,…,n︸m is defined as a collection T={G00,G10,…,G(n−1)0}∪{G01,G11,…,G(n−1)1} of isomorphic spanning subgraphs of X such that every edge of X appears twice in the collection T,E(Gi0)∩E(Gj0)=E(Gi1)∩E(Gj1)=0,i≠jand E(Gi0)∩E(Gj1)=λ=m2,i,j∈ℤn. We define the half starters and the symmetric starters matrices as constructing methods for the CIODCD of X. Then, we introduce some results as a direct application to the construction of CIODCD of X by the symmetric starters matrices.

This paper considers the cycle covering of complete multipartite graphs motivated by the design of survivable WDM networks, where the requests are routed on sub-networks which are protected independently from each other. The problem can be stated as follows: for a given graph G, find a cycle covering of the edge set of K (n) t ? , where V( Kt (n))=V(G), such that each cycle in the covering satisfies the disjoint routing constraint (DRC). Here we consider the case where G=Ctn, a ring of size tn and we want to minimize the number of cycles ? (nt, ?) in the covering. For the problem, we give the lower bound of ? (nt, ?), and obtain the optimal solutions when n is even or n is odd and both ? and t are even.
