If the graph is empty, we go to the final step 5 below. Otherwise, Wernicke's Theorem tells us that S 5 is nonempty. Pop v off S 5 , delete it from the graph, and let v 1 , v 2 , v 3 , v 4 , v 5 be the former neighbors of v in clockwise planar order, where v 1 is the neighbor of degree at most 6.
An example for an undirected Graph with a vertex r and its corresponding level structure For the concept in algebraic geometry, see level structure (algebraic geometry) In the mathematical subfield of graph theory a level structure of a rooted graph is a partition of the vertices into subsets that have the same distance from a given root vertex.
The works of Ramsey on colorations and more specially the results obtained by Turán in 1941 was at the origin of another branch of graph theory, extremal graph theory. The four color problem remained unsolved for more than a century. In 1969 Heinrich Heesch published a method for solving the problem using computers. [29]
[5] [6] A generalization takes as input any set T of evenly many vertices, and must produce as output a minimum-weight edge set in the graph whose odd-degree vertices are precisely those of T. This output is called a T-join. This problem, the T-join problem, is also solvable in polynomial time by the same approach that solves the postman problem.
Maximum cardinality matching is a fundamental problem in graph theory. [1] We are given a graph G, and the goal is to find a matching containing as many edges as possible; that is, a maximum cardinality subset of the edges such that each vertex is adjacent to at most one edge of the subset. As each edge will cover exactly two vertices, this ...
A subdivision of a graph is a graph formed by subdividing its edges into paths of one or more edges. Kuratowski's theorem states that a finite graph G {\displaystyle G} is planar if it is not possible to subdivide the edges of K 5 {\displaystyle K_{5}} or K 3 , 3 {\displaystyle K_{3,3}} , and then possibly add additional edges and vertices, to ...

Graph homomorphism problem [3]: GT52 Graph partition into subgraphs of specific types (triangles, isomorphic subgraphs, Hamiltonian subgraphs, forests, perfect matchings) are known NP-complete. Partition into cliques is the same problem as coloring the complement of the given graph. A related problem is to find a partition that is optimal terms ...
