In this paper we study identifying codes, locating-dominating codes, and total-dominating codes in Sierpinski graphs. We compute the minimum size of such codes in Sierpinski graphs.
In this paper, we study the minimum dominating set (MDS) problem and the minimum total dominating set MTDS) problem which have many applications in real world. We propose a new idea to compute approximate MDS and MTDS. Next, we give an…
A cycle cover of a graph is a set of cycles such that every vertex is part of exactly one cycle. An L-cycle cover is a cycle cover in which the length of every cycle is in the set L. We investigate how well L-cycle covers of minimum weight…
Given two sets $A$ and $B$ of integers, we consider the problem of finding a set $S \subseteq A$ of the smallest possible cardinality such the greatest common divisor of the elements of $S \cup B$ equals that of those of $A \cup B$. The…
In the context of algorithm theory, various studies have been conducted on spanning trees with desirable properties. In this paper, we consider the \textsc{Minimum Cover Spanning Tree} problem (MCST for short). Given a graph $G$ and a…
Building on existing algorithms and results, we offer new insights and algorithms for various problems related to detecting maximal and maximum bicliques. Most of these results focus on graphs with small maximum degree, providing improved…
We introduce the triple crossing number, a variation of crossing number, of a graph, which is the minimal number of crossing points in all drawings with only triple crossings of the graph. It is defined to be zero for a planar graph, and to…
Let $\Sigma^2 \subset M^3$ be a minimal surface of index 0 or 1. Assume that a neighborhood of $\Sigma$ can be foliated by constant mean curvature (cmc) hypersurfaces. We use min-max theory and the catenoid estimate to construct…
A bipartite covering of a (multi)graph $G$ is a collection of bipartite graphs, so that each edge of $G$ belongs to at least one of them. The capacity of the covering is the sum of the numbers of vertices of these bipartite graphs. In this…
We study how many copies of a graph $F$ that another graph $G$ with a given number of cliques is guaranteed to have. For example, one of our main results states that for all $t\ge 2$, if $G$ is an $n$ vertex graph with $kn^{3/2}$ triangles…
A new ordering, extending the notion of universal cycles of Chung {\em et al.} (1992), is proposed for the blocks of $k$-uniform set systems. Existence of minimum coverings of pairs by triples that possess such an ordering is established…
A bisection of a graph is a bipartition of its vertex set such that the two resulting parts differ in size by at most 1, and its size is the number of edges that connect vertices in the two parts. The perfect matching condition and…
We determine the minimal polynomial of each element of the double cover $G$ of the symmetric or alternating group in every irreducible spin representation of $G$.
We consider the problem of minimising the number of edges that are contained in triangles, among $n$-vertex graphs with a given number of edges. We prove a conjecture of F\"uredi and Maleki that gives an exact formula for this minimum, for…
We organize a table of regular graphs with minimal diameters and minimal mean path lengths, large bisection widths and high degrees of symmetries, obtained by enumerations on supercomputers. These optimal graphs, many of which are newly…
We consider the problem of covering an input graph $H$ with graphs from a fixed covering class $G$. The classical covering number of $H$ with respect to $G$ is the minimum number of graphs from $G$ needed to cover the edges of $H$ without…
In the context of the chromatic-number problem, a critical graph is an instance where the deletion of any element would decrease the graph's chromatic number. Such instances have shown to be interesting objects of study for deepen the…
We define the cover number of a graph $G$ by a graph class $\mathcal P$ as the minimum number of graphs of class $\mathcal P$ required to cover the edge set of $G$. Taking inspiration from a paper by Harary, Hsu and Miller, we find an exact…
Given a weighted graph $G(V,E)$ with weight $\mathbf w: E\rightarrow Z^{|E|}_{+}$. A $k-$cycle covering is an edge subset $A$ of $E$ such that $G-A$ has no $k-$cycle. The minimum weight of $k-$cycle covering is the weighted covering number…
The currently most efficient algorithm for inference with a probabilistic network builds upon a triangulation of a network's graph. In this paper, we show that pre-processing can help in finding good triangulations forprobabilistic…
