The weighted independent set problem on P 5 -free graphs has numerous applications, including data mining and dispatching in railways. The recognition of P 5 -free graphs is executed in polynomial time. Many problems, such as chromatic number and dominating set, are NP-hard in the class of P 5 -free graphs. The size of a minimum independent feedback vertex set that belongs to a P 5 -free graph with n vertices can be computed in O ( n 16 ) time. The unweighted problems, clique and clique cover, are NP-complete and the independent set is polynomial. In this work, the P 5 -free graphs using the weak decomposition are characterized, as is the dominating clique, and they are given an O ( n ( n + m ) ) recognition algorithm. Additionally, we calculate directly the clique number and the chromatic number; determine in O ( n ) time, the size of a minimum independent feedback vertex set; and determine in O ( n + m ) time the number of stability, the dominating number and the minimum clique cover.

A -cocolouring of a graph is a partition of the vertex set into subsets such that each set induces either a clique or an independent set in . The cochromatic number of a graph is the least such that has a -cocolouring of . A set is a dominating set of if for each , there exists a vertex such that is adjacent to . The minimum cardinality of a dominating set in is called the domination number and is denoted by . Combining these two concepts we have introduces two new types of cocoloring viz, dominating cocoloring and -cocoloring. A dominating cocoloring of is a cocoloring of such that atleast one of the sets in the partition is a dominating set. Hence dominating cocoloring is a conditional cocoloring. The dominating co-chromatic number is the smallest cardinality of a dominating cocoloring of .(ie) has a dominating cocoloring with -colors .

AbstractLet R be a commutative ring with non-zero identity. In this paper, we introduce theweakly nilpotent graph of a commutative ring. The weakly nilpotent graph of R denoted by Γw(R) is a graph with the vertex set R* and two vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if x y ∊ N(R)*, where R* = R \ {0} and N(R)* is the set of all non-zero nilpotent elements of R. In this article, we determine the diameter of weakly nilpotent graph of an Artinian ring. We prove that if Γw(R) is a forest, then Γw(R) is a union of a star and some isolated vertices. We study the clique number, the chromatic number, and the independence number of Γw(R). Among other results, we show that for an Artinian ring R, Γw(R) is not a disjoint union of cycles or a unicyclic graph. For Artinan rings, we determine diam . Finally, we characterize all commutative rings R for which is a cycle, where is the complement of the weakly nilpotent graph of R.

Let R be a commutative ring with nonzero identity. Then the Jacobson graph of R, denoted by 𝔍R, is defined as a graph with vertex set R\J(R) such that two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if 1 - xy is not a unit of R. We obtain some graph theoretical properties of 𝔍R including its connectivity, planarity and perfectness and we compute some of its numerical invariants, namely diameter, girth, dominating number, independence number and vertex chromatic number and give an estimate for its edge chromatic number.

Let R be a commutative ring and 𝔸(R) be the set of ideals with non-zero annihilators. The annihilating-ideal graph of R is defined as the graph 𝔸𝔾(R) with the vertex set 𝔸(R)* = 𝔸(R)\{(0)} and two distinct vertices I and J are adjacent if and only if IJ = (0). Here, we present some results on the clique number and the chromatic number of the annihilating-ideal graph of a commutative ring. It is shown that if R is an Artinian ring and ω (𝔸𝔾(R)) = 2, then R is Gorenstein. Also, we investigate commutative rings whose annihilating-ideal graphs are complete or bipartite.

Let R be a commutative ring with identity, I its proper ideal and M be a unitary R-module. In this paper, we introduce and study a kind of graph structure of an R-module M with respect to proper ideal I, denoted by ΓI(RM) or simply ΓI(M). It is the (undirected) graph with the vertex set M\{0} and two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if [x : M][y : M] ⊆ I. Clearly, the zero-divisor graph of R is a subgraph of Γ0(R); this is an important result on the definition. We prove that if ann R(M) ⊆ I and H is the subgraph of ΓI(M) induced by the set of all non-isolated vertices, then diam (H) ≤ 3 and gr (ΓI(M)) ∈ {3, 4, ∞}. Also, we prove that if Spec (R) and ω(Γ Nil (R)(M)) are finite, then χ(Γ Nil (R)(M)) ≤ ∣ Spec (R)∣ + ω(Γ Nil (R)(M)). Moreover, for a secondary R-module M and prime ideal P, we determine the chromatic number and the clique number of ΓP(M), where ann R(M) ⊆ P. Among other results, it is proved that for a semisimple R-module M with ann R(M) ⊆ I, ΓI(M) is a forest if and only if ΓI(M) is a union of isolated vertices or a star.

Two sets are non-crossing if they are disjoint or one contains the other. The non-crossing graph ${\rm NC}_n$ is the graph whose vertex set is the set of nonempty subsets of $[n]=\{1,\ldots,n\}$ with an edge between any two non-crossing sets. Various facts, some new and some already known, concerning the chromatic number, fractional chromatic number, independence number, clique number and clique cover number of this graph are presented. For the chromatic number of this graph we show: $$ n(\log_e n -\Theta(1)) \le \chi({\rm NC}_n) \le n (\lceil\log_2 n\rceil-1). $$

AbstractLet $G$ be a claw-free graph on $n$ vertices with clique number $\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}$, and consider the chromatic number $\unicode[STIX]{x1D712}(G^{2})$ of the square $G^{2}$ of $G$. Writing $\unicode[STIX]{x1D712}_{s}^{\prime }(d)$ for the supremum of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D712}(L^{2})$ over the line graphs $L$ of simple graphs of maximum degree at most $d$, we prove that $\unicode[STIX]{x1D712}(G^{2})\leqslant \unicode[STIX]{x1D712}_{s}^{\prime }(\unicode[STIX]{x1D714})$ for $\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}\in \{3,4\}$. For $\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}=3$, this implies the sharp bound $\unicode[STIX]{x1D712}(G^{2})\leqslant 10$. For $\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}=4$, this implies $\unicode[STIX]{x1D712}(G^{2})\leqslant 22$, which is within 2 of the conjectured best bound. This work is motivated by a strengthened form of a conjecture of Erdős and Nešetřil.

The Stability

A graph G is called γ-perfect if ƛ (H) = γ(H) for every vertex-generated subgraph H of G. Here, ƛ(H) is the clique number of H (the size of the largest clique of H) and γ(H) is the chromatic number of H (the minimum number of independent sets of vertices that cover all vertices of H). A graph G is called α-perfect if α(H) = θ(H) for every vertex-generated subgraph H of G, where α (H) is the stability number of H (the size of the largest independent set of H) and θ(H) is the partition number of H (the minimum number of cliques that cover all vertices of H).

We study the co maximal graph Ω(R), the induced subgraph Γ(R) of Ω(R) whose vertex set is R∖(U(R)∪J(R)), and a retract Γr(R) of Γ(R), where R is a commutative ring. For a graph Γ(R) which contains a cycle, we show that the core of Γ(R) is a union of triangles and rectangles, while a vertex in Γ(R) is either an end vertex or a vertex in the core. For a nonlocal ring R, we prove that both the chromatic number and clique number of Γ(R) are identical with the number of maximal ideals of R. A graph Γr(R) is also introduced on the vertex set {Rx∣x∈R∖(U(R)∪J(R))}, and graph properties of Γr(R) are studied.
