Combinatorics International audience A \em cyclic q-partition of a hypergraph (V,E) is a partition of the edge set E of the form \F,F^θ,F^θ², \ldots, F^θ^q-1\ for some permutation θ of the vertex set V. Let Vₙ = \ 1,2,\ldots,n\. For a positive integer k, Vₙ\choose k denotes the set of all k-subsets of Vₙ. For a nonempty subset K of V_n-1, we let \mathcalKₙ^(K) denote the hypergraph ≤ft(Vₙ, \bigcup_k∈ K Vₙ\choose k\right). In this paper, we find a necessary and sufficient condition on n, q and k for the existence of a cyclic q-partition of \mathcalKₙ^(V_k). In particular, we prove that if p is prime then there is a cyclic p^α-partition of \mathcalK^(Vₖ)ₙ if and only if p^α + β divides n, where β = \lfloor \logₚ k\rfloor. As an application of this result, we obtain two sufficient conditions on n₁,n₂,\ldots,n_t, k, α and a prime p for the existence of a cyclic p^α-partition of the complete t-partite k-uniform hypergraph \mathcal K^(k)_n₁,n₂,\ldots,n_t.

Abstract Let k be a positive integer and let G be a graph with vertex set V(G) . A subset D\subseteq V(G) is a k -dominating set if every vertex outside D is adjacent to at least k vertices in D . The k -domination number {\gamma }_{k}(G) is the minimum cardinality of a k -dominating set in G . For any graph G , we know that {\gamma }_{k}(G)\ge \gamma (G)+k-2 where \text{Δ}(G)\ge k\ge 2 and this bound is sharp for every k\ge 2 . In this paper, we characterize bipartite graphs satisfying the equality for k\ge 3 and present a necessary and sufficient condition for a bipartite graph to satisfy the equality hereditarily when k=3 . We also prove that the problem of deciding whether a graph satisfies the given equality is NP-hard in general.

Graph Theory International audience In 1982, Opsut showed that the competition number of a line graph is at most two and gave a necessary and sufficient condition for the competition number of a line graph being one. In this paper, we generalize this result to the competition numbers of generalized line graphs, that is, we show that the competition number of a generalized line graph is at most two, and give necessary conditions and sufficient conditions for the competition number of a generalized line graph being one.

Let [Formula: see text] be a group and [Formula: see text] be a positive integer. The [Formula: see text]-power digraph [Formula: see text] is consisting of vertex set [Formula: see text] and there is a directed edge from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text] if and only if [Formula: see text]. We study the [Formula: see text]-power digraph on the semiproduct of cyclic groups. In particular, we obtain the distribution of indegree and cycles, and determine the structure of trees attached with vertices of power digraph. Finally, we establish a necessary and sufficient condition for isomorphism of digraphs [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text].

Abstract Let ({\mathrm{\Gamma}},\le ) be a strictly ordered monoid, and let {{\mathrm{\Gamma}}}^{\ast }\left={\mathrm{\Gamma}}\backslash \{0\} . Let D\subseteq E be an extension of commutative rings with identity, and let I be a nonzero proper ideal of D. Set \begin{array}{l}D+[\kern-2pt[ {E}^{{{\mathrm{\Gamma}}}^{\ast },\le }]\kern-2pt] := \left\{f\in [\kern-2pt[ {E}^{{\mathrm{\Gamma}},\le }]\kern-2pt] \hspace{0.15em}|\hspace{0.2em}f(0)\in D\right\}\hspace{.5em}\text{and}\\ \hspace{0.2em}D+[\kern-2pt[ {I}^{{\Gamma }^{\ast },\le }]\kern-2pt] := \left\{f\in [\kern-2pt[ {D}^{{\mathrm{\Gamma}},\le }]\kern-2pt] \hspace{0.15em}|\hspace{0.2em}f(\alpha )\in I,\hspace{.5em}\text{for}\hspace{.25em}\text{all}\hspace{.5em}\alpha \in {{\mathrm{\Gamma}}}^{\ast }\right\}.\end{array} In this paper, we give necessary conditions for the rings D+[\kern-2pt[ {E}^{{{\mathrm{\Gamma}}}^{\ast },\le }]\kern-2pt] to be Noetherian when ({\mathrm{\Gamma}},\le ) is positively ordered, and sufficient conditions for the rings D+[\kern-2pt[ {E}^{{{\mathrm{\Gamma}}}^{\ast },\le }]\kern-2pt] to be Noetherian when ({\mathrm{\Gamma}},\le ) is positively totally ordered. Moreover, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the ring D+[\kern-2pt[ {I}^{{\Gamma }^{\ast },\le }]\kern-2pt] to be Noetherian when ({\mathrm{\Gamma}},\le ) is positively totally ordered. As corollaries, we give equivalent conditions for the rings D+({X}_{1},\ldots ,{X}_{n})E{[}{X}_{1},\ldots ,{X}_{n}] and D+({X}_{1},\ldots ,{X}_{n})I{[}{X}_{1},\ldots ,{X}_{n}] to be Noetherian.

The paper deals with learning in the limit from positive data. After an introduction and overview of earlier results, we strengthen a result of Sato and Umayahara (1991) by establishing a necessary and sufficient condition for the satisfaction of Angluin's (1980) finite tell-tale condition. Our other two results show that two notions introduced here, the finite net property and the weak finite net property, lead to sufficient conditions for learning in the limit from positive data. Examples not solvable by earlier methods are also given.

The centre of mass G of a triangle has the property that the rays to the vertices from G sweep out triangles having equal areas. We show that such points, termed equipartitioning points in this paper, need not exist in other polygons. A necessary and sufficient condition for a quadrilateral to have an equipartitioning point is that one of its diagonals bisects the other. The general theorem, namely, necessary and sufficient conditions for equipartitioning points for arbitrary polygons to exist, is also stated and proved. When this happens, they are in general, distinct from the centre of mass. In parallelograms, and only in them, do the two points coincide.

The aim of this paper is to determine radius and diameter of graph complements. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the complement of a graph to be connected, and determine the components of graph complement. Finally, we completely characterize the class of graphs [Formula: see text] for which the subgraph induced by central (respectively peripheral) vertices of its complement in [Formula: see text] is isomorphic to a complete graph [Formula: see text], for some positive integer [Formula: see text].

A graph G is said to possess a perfect matching if there is a subgraph of G consisting of disjoint edges which together cover all the vertices of G. Clearly G must then have an even number of vertices. A necessary and sufficient condition for G to possess a perfect matching was obtained by Tutte (3). If S is any set of vertices of G, let p(S) denote the number of components of the graph G – S with an odd number of vertices. Then the conditionis both necessary and sufficient for the existence of a perfect matching. A simple proof of this result is given in (1).

Let [Formula: see text] be a finite commutative ring with nonzero identity and [Formula: see text] be the set of all units of [Formula: see text] The graph [Formula: see text] is the simple undirected graph with vertex set [Formula: see text] in which two distinct vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are adjacent if and only if there exists a unit element [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] is a unit in [Formula: see text] In this paper, we obtain degree of all vertices in [Formula: see text] and in turn provide a necessary and sufficient condition for [Formula: see text] to be Eulerian. Also, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the complement [Formula: see text] to be Eulerian, Hamiltonian and planar.

SynopsisThis paper studies the equationwhere the differential operator Ln is defined byand a necessary and sufficient condition that all oscillatory solutions of the above equation converge to zero asymptotically is presented. The results obtained extend and improve previous ones of Kusano and Onose, and Singh, even in the usual case wherewhere N is an integer with l≦N≦n–1.
