摘要

A vertex with neighbours of degrees d1...drd_1 \geq ... \geq d_r has {\em vertex type} (d1,...,dr)(d_1, ..., d_r). A graph is {\em vertex-oblique} if each vertex has a distinct vertex-type. While no graph can have distinct degrees, Schreyer, Walther and Mel'nikov [Vertex oblique graphs, same proceedings] have constructed infinite classes of {\em super vertex-oblique} graphs, where the degree-types of GG are distinct even from the degree types of Gˉ\bar{G}. GG is vertex oblique iff Gˉ\bar{G} is; but GG and Gˉ\bar{G} cannot be isomorphic, since self-complementary graphs always have non-trivial automorphisms. However, we show by construction that there are {\em dually vertex-oblique graphs} of order nn, where the vertex-type sequence of GG is the same as that of Gˉ\bar{G}; they exist iff n0n \equiv 0 or 1(mod4),n81 \pmod 4, n \geq 8, and for n12n \geq 12 we can require them to be split graphs. We also show that a dually vertex-oblique graph and its complement are never the unique pair of graphs that have a particular vertex-type sequence; but there are infinitely many super vertex-oblique graphs whose vertex-type sequence is unique.
