Circular Arc Graphs

Graph labeling problem has been broadly studied in recent past for its wide applications, in mobile communication system for frequency assignment, radar, circuit design, X-ray crystallography, coding theory, etc. An L211-labeling  (L211L) of a graph G = (V, E) is a function γ : V → Z∗ such that |γ(u) − γ(v)| ≥ 2, if d(u, v) = 1 and |γ(u) − γ(v)| ≥ 1, if  d(u, v) = 1 or 2, where  Z∗  be the set of non-negative integers and d(u, v) represents the distance between the nodes u and v. The L211L numbers of a graph G, are denoted by λ2,1,1(G) which is the difference between largest and smallest labels used in L211L. In this article, for circular-arc graph (CAG) G we have proved that λ2,1,1(G) ≤ 6∆ − 4, where ∆ represents the degree of the graph. Beside this we have designed a polynomial time algorithm to label a CAG satisfying the conditions of L211L. The time complexity of the algorithm is O(n∆2), where n is the number of nodes of the graph G.

Circular Arc Graphs

One important problem in graph theory is graph coloring or graph labeling. Labeling problem is a well-studied problem due to its wide applications, especially in frequency assignment in (mobile) communication system, coding theory, ray crystallography, radar, circuit design, etc. For two non-negative integers, labeling of a graph is a function from the node set to the set of non-negative integers such that if and if, where it represents the distance between the nodes. Intersection graph is a very important subclass of graph. Unit disc graph, chordal graph, interval graph, circular-arc graph, permutation graph, trapezoid graph, etc. are the important subclasses of intersection graphs. In this chapter, the authors discuss labeling for intersection graphs, specially for interval graphs, circular-arc graphs, permutation graphs, trapezoid graphs, etc., and have presented a lot of results for this problem.

Irregularity Strength

The field of graph theory plays a vital role in various fields. One of the important areas in graph theory is graph labeling used in many applications such as coding theory, X-ray crystallography, radar, astronomy, circuit design, communication network addressing, and data base management. In this paper, we discuss the totally irregular total k labeling of three planar graphs. If such labeling exists for minimum value of a positive integer k, then this labeling is called totally irregular total k labeling and k is known as the total irregularity strength of a graph G. More preciously, we determine the exact value of the total irregularity strength of three planar graphs.

Natural Way

Ranking alternatives is a natural way for humans to explain their preferences. It is being used in many settings, such as school choice (NY, Boston), Course allocations, and the Israeli medical lottery. In some cases (such as the latter two), several ``items'' are given to each participant. Without having any information on the underlying cardinal utilities, arguing about fairness of allocation requires extending the ordinal item ranking to ordinal bundle ranking. The most commonly used such extension is stochastic dominance (SD), where a bundle X is preferred over a bundle Y if its score is better according to all additive score functions. SD is a very conservative extension, by which few allocations are necessarily fair while many allocations are possibly fair. We propose to make a natural assumption on the underlying cardinal utilities of the players, namely that the difference between two items at the top is larger than the difference between two items at the bottom. This assumption implies a preference extension which we call diminishing differences (DD), where a X is preferred over Y if its score is better according to all additive score functions satisfying the DD assumption. We give a full characterization of allocations that are necessarily-proportional or possibly-proportional according to this assumption. Based on this characterization, we present a polynomial-time algorithm for finding a necessarily-DD-proportional allocation if it exists. Using simulations, we show that with high probability, a necessarily-proportional allocation does not exist but a necessarily-DD-proportional allocation exists, and moreover, that allocation is proportional according to the underlying cardinal utilities.

The Difference

In the real world, there are a large number of supply chains that involve the short lifespan products. In this paper, we consider an integrated production and distribution batch scheduling problem on a single machine for the orders with a short lifespan, because it may be cheaper or faster to process and distribute orders in a batch than to process and distribute them individually. Assume that the orders have the identical processing time and come from the same location, and the batch setup time is a constant. The problem is to choose the number of batches and batch sizes to minimize the total delivery time without violating the order lifespan. We first give a backward dynamic programming algorithm, but it is not an actually polynomial-time algorithm. Then we propose a constant time partial dynamic programming algorithm by doing further research into the recursion formula in the algorithm. Further, using the difference characteristics of the optimal value function, a specific calculating formula to solve the problem with the setup time being integer times of the processing time is obtained.

Discrete Algorithms International audience We give a linear-time algorithm that checks for isomorphism between two 0-1 matrices that obey the circular-ones property. Our algorithm is similar to the isomorphism algorithm for interval graphs of Lueker and Booth, but works on PC trees, which are unrooted and have a cyclic nature, rather than with PQ trees, which are rooted. This algorithm leads to linear-time isomorphism algorithms for related graph classes, including Helly circular-arc graphs, Γ circular-arc graphs, proper circular-arc graphs and convex-round graphs.

Graphs and Algorithms International audience We consider the problem of finding a balanced ordering of the vertices of a graph. More precisely, we want to minimise the sum, taken over all vertices v, of the difference between the number of neighbours to the left and right of v. This problem, which has applications in graph drawing, was recently introduced by Biedl et al. [Discrete Applied Math. 148:27―48, 2005]. They proved that the problem is solvable in polynomial time for graphs with maximum degree three, but NP-hard for graphs with maximum degree six. One of our main results is to close the gap in these results, by proving NP-hardness for graphs with maximum degree four. Furthermore, we prove that the problem remains NP-hard for planar graphs with maximum degree four and for 5-regular graphs. On the other hand, we introduce a polynomial time algorithm that determines whetherthere is a vertex ordering with total imbalance smaller than a fixed constant, and a polynomial time algorithm that determines whether a given multigraph with even degrees has an 'almost balanced' ordering.

Contraflow technique has gained a considerable focus in evacuation planning research over the past several years. In this work, we design efficient algorithms to solve the maximum, lex-maximum, earliest arrival, and quickest dynamic flow problems having constant attributes and their generalizations with partial contraflow reconfiguration in the context of evacuation planning. The partial static contraflow problems, that are foundations to the dynamic flows, are also studied. Moreover, the contraflow model with inflow-dependent transit time on arcs is introduced. A strongly polynomial time algorithm to compute approximate solution of the quickest partial contraflow problem on two terminal networks is presented, which is substantiated by numerical computations considering Kathmandu road network as an evacuation network. Our results show that the quickest time to evacuate a flow of value 100,000 units is reduced by more than 42% using the partial contraflow technique, and the difference is more with the increase in the flow value. Moreover, the technique keeps the record of the portions of the road network not used by the evacuees.

The most commonly used such extension is stochastic dominance (SD), where a bundle X is preferred over a bundle Y if its score is better according to all additive score functions.

This assumption implies a preference extension which we call diminishing differences (DD), where X is preferred over Y if its score is better according to all additive score functions satisfying the DD assumption. We give a full characterization of allocations that are necessarily-proportional or possibly-proportional according to this assumption. Based on this characterization, we present a polynomial-time algorithm for finding a necessarily-DD-proportional allocation whenever it exists. Using simulations, we compare the various fairness criteria in terms of their probability of existence, and their probability of being fair by the underlying cardinal valuations. We find that necessary-DD-proportionality fares well in both measures. We also consider envy-freeness and Pareto optimality under diminishing-differences, as well as chore allocation under the analogous condition --- increasing-differences.
