Split Graphs

Graphs and Algorithms International audience An undirected graph G=(V,E) is a probe split graph if its vertex set can be partitioned into two sets, N (non-probes) and P (probes) where N is independent and there exists E' ⊆ N× N such that G'=(V,E∪ E') is a split graph. Recently Chang et al. gave an O(V4(V+E)) time recognition algorithm for probe split graphs. In this article we give O(V2+VE) time recognition algorithms and characterisations by forbidden induced subgraphs both for the case when the partition into probes and non-probes is given, and when it is not given.

Hereditary Properties

For a graph property $X$, let $X_n$ be the number of graphs with vertex set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ having property $X$, also known as the speed of $X$. A property $X$ is called factorial if $X$ is hereditary (i.e. closed under taking induced subgraphs) and $n^{c_1n}\le X_n\le n^{c_2n}$ for some positive constants $c_1$ and $c_2$. Hereditary properties with the speed slower than factorial are surprisingly well structured. The situation with factorial properties is more complicated and less explored, although this family includes many properties of theoretical or practical importance, such as planar graphs or graphs of bounded vertex degree. To simplify the study of factorial properties, we propose the following conjecture: the speed of a hereditary property $X$ is factorial if and only if the fastest of the following three properties is factorial: bipartite graphs in $X$, co-bipartite graphs in $X$ and split graphs in $X$. In this note, we verify the conjecture for hereditary properties defined by forbidden induced subgraphs with at most 4 vertices.

Split Graphs

The undirected power graph (or simply power graph) of a group $G$, denoted by $P(G)$, is a graph whose vertices are the elements of the group $G$, in which two vertices $u$ and $v$ are connected by an edge between if and only if either $u=v^i$ or $v=u^j$ for some $i$, $j$. A number of important graph classes, including perfect graphs, cographs, chordal graphs, split graphs, and threshold graphs, can be defined either structurally or in terms of forbidden induced subgraphs. We examine each of these five classes and attempt to determine for which groups $G$ the power graph $P(G)$ lies in the class under consideration. We give complete results in the case of nilpotent groups, and partial results in greater generality. In particular, the power graph is always perfect; and we determine completely the groups whose power graph is a threshold or split graph (the answer is the same for both classes). We give a number of open problems.

Graph Theory International audience Fibonacci and Lucas cubes are induced subgraphs of hypercubes obtained by excluding certain binary strings from the vertex set. They appear as models for interconnection networks, as well as in chemistry. We derive a characterization of Lucas cubes that is based on a peripheral expansion of a unique convex subgraph of an appropriate Fibonacci cube. This serves as the foundation for a recognition algorithm of Lucas cubes that runs in linear time.

Acyclic Subgraph

Graph Theory International audience A graph is extended P4-laden if each of its induced subgraphs with at most six vertices that contains more than two induced P4's is 2K2,C4-free. A cycle transversal (or feedback vertex set) of a graph G is a subset T ⊆ V (G) such that T ∩ V (C) 6= ∅ for every cycle C of G; if, in addition, T is a clique, then T is a clique cycle transversal (cct). Finding a cct in a graph G is equivalent to partitioning V (G) into subsets C and F such that C induces a complete subgraph and F an acyclic subgraph. This work considers the problem of characterizing extended P4-laden graphs admitting a cct. We characterize such graphs by means of a finite family of forbidden induced subgraphs, and present a linear-time algorithm to recognize them.

Graph Theory International audience Given a class G of graphs, probe G graphs are defined as follows. A graph G is probe G if there exists a partition of its vertices into a set of probe vertices and a stable set of nonprobe vertices in such a way that non-edges of G, whose endpoints are nonprobe vertices, can be added so that the resulting graph belongs to G. We investigate probe 2-clique graphs and probe diamond-free graphs. For probe 2-clique graphs, we present a polynomial-time recognition algorithm. Probe diamond-free graphs are characterized by minimal forbidden induced subgraphs. As a by-product, it is proved that the class of probe block graphs is the intersection between the classes of chordal graphs and probe diamond-free graphs.

Polynomially Solvable

The study of the computational complexity of problems on graphs is an urgent problem. We show that the problem of deciding whether the vertex set of a given split graph of order 3n can be partitioned into induced subgraphs isomorphic to P3 is a polynomially solvable problem. We develop a polynomial-time algorithm based on the method of augmenting graphs. The developed efficient algorithm can be used for solving team formation problems.

Split Graphs

A graph is a split graph if its vertex set can be partitioned into a clique and a stable set. A split graph is unbalanced if there exist two such partitions that are distinct. Cheng, Collins and Trenk (2016), discovered the following interesting counting fact: unlabeled, unbalanced split graphs on $n$ vertices can be placed into a bijection with all unlabeled split graphs on $n-1$ or fewer vertices. In this paper we translate these concepts and the theorem to different combinatorial settings: minimal set covers, bipartite graphs with a distinguished block and posets of height one.

Let R be a commutative ring with unity and M be a unitary R module. Let Nil(M) be the set of all nilpotent elements of M. The entire nilpotent element graph of M over R is an undirected graph E(G(M)) with vertex set as M and any two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if x + y ∈ Nil(M). In this paper we attempt to study the domination in the graph E(G(M)) and investigate the domination number as well as bondage number of E(G(M)) and its induced subgraphs N(G(M)) and Non(G(M)). Some domination parameters of E(G(M)) are also studied. It has been showed that E(G(M)) is excellent, domatically full and well covered under certain conditions.
