Abstract

A sequence SS is potentially Kp1,p2,...,ptK_{p_{1},p_{2},...,p_{t}} graphical if it has a realization containing a Kp1,p2,...,ptK_{p_{1},p_{2},...,p_{t}} as a subgraph, where Kp1,p2,...,ptK_{p_{1},p_{2},...,p_{t}} is a complete t-partite graph with partition sizes p1,p2,...,pt(p1p2...pt1)p_{1},p_{2},...,p_{t} (p_{1}\geq p_{2}\geq ...\geq p_{t} \geq 1). Let σ(Kp1,p2,...,pt,n)\sigma(K_{p_{1},p_{2},...,p_{t}}, n) denote the smallest degree sum such that every nn-term graphical sequence SS with σ(S)σ(Kp1,p2,...,pt,n)\sigma(S)\geq \sigma(K_{p_{1},p_{2},...,p_{t}}, n) is potentially Kp1,p2,...,ptK_{p_{1},p_{2},...,p_{t}} graphical. In this paper, we prove that σ(Kp1,p2,...,pt,n)2[((2p1+2p2+...+2ptp1p2...pi2)n(p1+p2+...+ptpi)(pi+pi+1+...+pt1)+2)/2]\sigma (K_{p_{1},p_{2},...,p_{t}}, n)\geq 2[((2p_{1}+2p_{2}+...+2p_{t}-p_{1}-p_{2}-...-p_{i}-2)n -(p_{1}+p_{2}+...+p_{t}-p_{i})(p_{i}+p_{i+1}+...+p_{t}-1)+2)/2] for np1+p2+...+pt,i=2,3,...,t.n \geq p_{1}+p_{2}+...+p_{t}, i=2,3,...,t.
