The star graphs K 1,3, K 1,4, K 1,5, and K 1,6. A complete bipartite graph of K 4,7 showing that Turán's brick factory problem with 4 storage sites (yellow spots) and 7 kilns (blue spots) requires 18 crossings (red dots) For any k, K 1,k is called a star. [2] All complete bipartite graphs which are trees are stars.
A complete graph with n nodes represents the edges of an (n – 1)-simplex. Geometrically K 3 forms the edge set of a triangle, K 4 a tetrahedron, etc. The Császár polyhedron, a nonconvex polyhedron with the topology of a torus, has the complete graph K 7 as its skeleton. [15] Every neighborly polytope in four or more dimensions also has a ...
In graph theory, an outerplanar graph is a graph that has a planar drawing for which all vertices belong to the outer face of the drawing. Outerplanar graphs may be characterized (analogously to Wagner's theorem for planar graphs) by the two forbidden minors K 4 and K 2,3, or by their Colin de Verdière graph invariants. They have Hamiltonian ...
The Johnson graph J(n, k) is the graph whose vertices are the k-element subsets of an n-element set, two vertices being adjacent when they meet in a (k − 1)-element set. The Johnson graph J(n, 2) is the complement of the Kneser graph K(n, 2). Johnson graphs are closely related to the Johnson scheme, both of which are named after Selmer M ...
1-factorization of the Desargues graph: each color class is a 1-factor. The Petersen graph can be partitioned into a 1-factor (red) and a 2-factor (blue). However, the graph is not 1-factorable. In graph theory, a factor of a graph G is a spanning subgraph, i.e., a subgraph that has the same vertex set as G.
The arboricity of a graph is a measure of how dense the graph is: graphs with many edges have high arboricity, and graphs with high arboricity must have a dense subgraph. In more detail, as any n-vertex forest has at most n-1 edges, the arboricity of a graph with n vertices and m edges is at least ⌈ / ⌉. Additionally, the subgraphs of any ...
In graph theory, a part of mathematics, a k-partite graph is a graph whose vertices are (or can be) partitioned into k different independent sets. Equivalently, it is a graph that can be colored with k colors, so that no two endpoints of an edge have the same color. When k = 2 these are the bipartite graphs, and when k = 3 they are called the ...
