Often, the problem is to decompose a graph into subgraphs isomorphic to a fixed graph; for instance, decomposing a complete graph into Hamiltonian cycles. Other problems specify a family of graphs into which a given graph should be decomposed, for instance, a family of cycles, or decomposing a complete graph K n into n − 1 specified trees ...
The "pearls" of the title include theorems, proofs, problems, and examples in graph theory.The book has ten chapters; after an introductory chapter on basic definitions, the remaining chapters material on graph coloring; Hamiltonian cycles and Euler tours; extremal graph theory; subgraph counting problems including connections to permutations, derangements, and Cayley's formula; graph ...
The problems of finding a Hamiltonian path and a Hamiltonian cycle can be related as follows: In one direction, the Hamiltonian path problem for graph G can be related to the Hamiltonian cycle problem in a graph H obtained from G by adding a new universal vertex x, connecting x to all vertices of G. Thus, finding a Hamiltonian path cannot be ...
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 ...

Resolving sets for graphs were introduced independently by Slater (1975) and Harary & Melter (1976), while the concept of a resolving set and that of metric dimension were defined much earlier in the more general context of metric spaces by Blumenthal in his monograph Theory and Applications of Distance Geometry. Graphs are special examples of ...
The graph sandwich problem is NP-complete when Π is the property of being a chordal graph, comparability graph, permutation graph, chordal bipartite graph, or chain graph. [2] [4] It can be solved in polynomial time for split graphs, [2] [5] threshold graphs, [2] [5] and graphs in which every five vertices contain at most one four-vertex ...
