On g-Extra Connectivity of Corona-Type Graph Products

Abstract

Connectivity is one of the central ideas in graph theory, especially when it comes to building fault-tolerant networks. A cutset $S$ of $G$ is defined to be the set of vertices in $G$ whose removal disconnects the graph. An $R_g$ cutset of $G$ is a cutset whose removal disconnects the graph in such a way that each connected component has at least $g+1$ vertices. If $G$ has at least one $R_g$ cutset then the $g-$extra vertex connectivity (or the $g-$extra edge connectivity), denoted as $κ_g(G)$ ($λ_g(G)$), is defined as the minimum cardinality of $R_g$ cutset. In this paper, we obtain the $g-$ extra connectivity of various corona type graph products edge corona, neighbourhood corona, subdivision vertex neighbourhood corona,subdivision edge neighbourhood corona and generalised corona product.

Sidorenko's conjecture states that the number of copies of any given bipartite graph in another graph of given density is asymptotically minimized by a random graph. For bipartite graphs containing a cycle, the forcing conjecture further asserts that asymptotic equality characterizes quasi-random graphs. We establish an adjoint identity for a general class of graph-substitution operators and use it to obtain Sidorenko and forcing results for balanced blow-ups, subdivisions, Cartesian products, and strong products.

On the Cost Number of Graphs with Determining Number Two

A distinguishing vertex coloring of a graph $G$ is a vertex coloring such that only the identity automorphism of $G$ preserves the coloring. A graph is $2$-distinguishable if it admits a distinguishing vertex coloring with two colors, and its cost $ρ(G)$ is the minimum size of a color class in such a coloring. The determining number of a graph $G$, denoted by $Det(G)$, is the minimum size of a subset $S\subseteq V(G)$ such that only the trivial automorphism fixes every element of $S$ pointwise. Boutin (J. Combin. Math. Combin. Comput. 85: 161-171, 2013) asked if $ρ(G)$ and $Det(G)$ can be arbitrarily far apart. While the case for $Det(G) = 1$ is trivial, the answer remained unknown for $Det(G) \ge 2$. In this manuscript, we show that if $Det(G)=2$ then not only is $ρ(G)$ bounded, but in fact $ρ(G) \leq 4$. This is the first resolution of Boutin's question for any nontrivial fixed determining number. Moreover, for every fixed $Det(G)= n$, we construct examples giving a lower bound on any possible upper bound for $ρ(G)$ in terms of $n$.
