In this paper we study the monochromatic loose-cycle partition problem for non-complete hypergraphs. Our main result is that in any $r$-coloring of a $k$-uniform hypergraph with independence number $\alpha$ there is a partition of the vertex set into monochromatic loose cycles such that their number depends only on $r$, $k$ and $\alpha$. We also give an extension of the following result of Pósa to hypergraphs: the vertex set of every graph $G$ can be partitioned into at most $\alpha(G)$ cycles, edges and vertices.

Special Case

We show that two results on covering of edge colored graphs by monochromatic connected parts can be extended to partitioning. We prove that for any $2$-edge-colored non-trivial $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$, the vertex set can be partitioned into at most $\alpha (H)-r+2$ monochromatic connected parts, where $\alpha (H)$ is the maximum number of vertices that does not contain any edge. In particular, any $2$-edge-colored graph $G$ can be partitioned into $\alpha(G)$ monochromatic connected parts, where $\alpha (G)$ denotes the independence number of $G$. This extends König's theorem, a special case of Ryser's conjecture. Our second result is about Gallai-colorings, i.e. edge-colorings of graphs without $3$-edge-colored triangles. We show that for any Gallai-coloring of a graph $G$, the vertex set of $G$ can be partitioned into monochromatic connected parts, where the number of parts depends only on $\alpha(G)$. This extends its cover-version proved earlier by Simonyi and two of the authors.

Adic Valuation

Let $K$ be any finite field. For any prime $p$, the $p$-adic valuation map is given by $\psi_{p}:K/\{0\} \to \R^+\bigcup\{0\}$ is given by $\psi_{p}(r) = n$ where $r = p^n \frac{a}{b}$, where $p,a,b$ are relatively prime. The field $K$ together with a valuation is called valued field. Also, any field $K$ has the trivial valuation determined by $\psi{(K)} = \{0,1\}$. Through out the paper K represents $\Z_q$. In this paper, we construct the graph corresponding to the valuation map called the valued field graph, denoted by $VFG_{p}(\Z_{q})$ whose vertex set is $\{v_0,v_1,v_2,\ldots, v_{q-1}\}$ where two vertices $v_i$ and $v_j$ are adjacent if $\psi_{p}(i) = j$ or $\psi_{p}(j) = i$. Here, we tried to characterize the valued field graph in $\Z_q$. Also we analyse various graph theoretical parameters such as diameter, independence number etc.

Finite Commutative Rings

The intersection graph ITΓ(R) of gamma sets in the total graph TΓ(R) of a commutative ring R, is the undirected graph with vertex set as the collection of all γ-sets in the total graph of R and two distinct vertices u and v are adjacent if and only if u ∩ v ≠ ∅. Tamizh Chelvam and Asir [The intersection graph of gamma sets in the total graph I, to appear in J. Algebra Appl.] studied about ITΓ(R) where R is a commutative Artin ring. In this paper, we continue our interest on ITΓ(R) and actually we study about Eulerian, Hamiltonian and pancyclic nature of ITΓ(R). Further, we focus on certain graph theoretic parameters of ITΓ(R) like the independence number, the clique number and the connectivity of ITΓ(R). Also, we obtain both vertex and edge chromatic numbers of ITΓ(R). In fact, it is proved that if R is a finite commutative ring, then χ(ITΓ(R)) = ω(ITΓ(R)). Having proved that ITΓ(R) is weakly perfect for all finite commutative rings, we further characterize all finite commutative rings for which ITΓ(R) is perfect. In this sequel, we characterize all commutative Artin rings for which ITΓ(R) is of class one (i.e. χ′(ITΓ(R)) = Δ(ITΓ(R))). Finally, it is proved that the vertex connectivity and edge connectivity of ITΓ(R) are equal to the degree of any vertex in ITΓ(R).

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.

Nonzero Identity

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.

Here we address the problem to partition edge colored hypergraphs by monochromatic paths and cycles generalizing a well-known similar problem for graphs.We show that $r$-colored $r$-uniform complete hypergraphs can be partitioned into monochromatic Berge-paths of distinct colors. Also, apart from $2k-5$ vertices, $2$-colored $k$-uniform hypergraphs can be partitioned into two monochromatic loose paths.In general, we prove that in any $r$-coloring of a $k$-uniform hypergraph there is a partition of the vertex set intomonochromatic loose cycles such that their number depends only on $r$ and $k$.

Cyclic Sequence

A linear cycle in a $3$-uniform hypergraph $H$ is a cyclic sequence of hyperedges such that any two consecutive hyperedges intersect in exactly one element and non-consecutive hyperedges are disjoint. Let $\alpha(H)$ denote the size of a largest independent set of $H$.We show that the vertex set of every $3$-uniform hypergraph $H$ can be covered by at most $\alpha(H)$ edge-disjoint linear cycles (where we accept a vertex and a hyperedge as a linear cycle), proving a weaker version of a conjecture of Gyárfás and Sárközy.

Let k ? 2 be an integer. A function f:V(D) ? {-1,1} defined on the vertex set V(D) of a digraph D is a signed total k-independence function if ?x?N-(v)f(x) ? k - 1 for each v ? V(D), where N-(v) consists of all vertices of D from which arcs go into v. The weight of a signed total k-independence function f is defined by w(f)=?x?V(D)f(x). The maximum of weights w(f), taken over all signed total k-independence functions f on D, is the signed total k-independence number k?st(D) of D. In this work, we mainly present upper bounds on k?st(D), as for example k?st(D) ? n-2? ?- + 1-k)/2? and k?st(D)? ?+2k-?+-2/?+?+ ? n , where n is the order, ?- the maximum indegree and ?+ and ?+ are the maximum and minimum outdegree of the digraph D. Some of our results imply well-known properties on the signed total 2-independence number of graphs.

A hypergraph H = ( V , ε ) is a pair consisting of a vertex set V , and a set ε of subsets (the hyperedges of H ) of V . A hypergraph H is r -uniform if all the hyperedges of H have the same cardinality r . Let H be an r -uniform hypergraph, we generalize the concept of trees for r -uniform hypergraphs. We say that an r -uniform hypergraph H is a generalized hypertree ( G H T ) if H is disconnected after removing any hyperedge E , and the number of components of G H T − E is a fixed value k   ( 2 ≤ k ≤ r ) . We focus on the case that G H T − E has exactly two components. An edge-minimal G H T is a G H T whose edge set is minimal with respect to inclusion. After considering these definitions, we show that an r -uniform G H T on n vertices has at least 2 n / ( r + 1 ) edges and it has at most n − r + 1 edges if r ≥ 3   and   n ≥ 3 , and the lower and upper bounds on the edge number are sharp. We then discuss the case that G H T − E has exactly k   ( 2 ≤ k ≤ r − 1 ) components.

An oriented k-uniform hypergraph (a family of ordered k-sets) has the ordering property (or Property O) if, for every linear order of the vertex set, there is some edge oriented consistently with the linear order. We find bounds on the minimum number of edges in a hypergraph with Property O.
