Some results on triangle partitions
We show that there exist efficient algorithms for the triangle packing
problem in colored permutation graphs, complete multipartite graphs,
distance-hereditary graphs, k-modular permutation graphs and complements of
k-partite graphs (when k is fixed). We show that there is an efficient
algorithm for C_4-packing on bipartite permutation graphs and we show that
C_4-packing on bipartite graphs is NP-complete. We characterize the cobipartite
graphs that have a triangle partition
Many copies in -free graphs
For two graphs and with no isolated vertices and for an integer ,
let denote the maximum possible number of copies of in an
-free graph on vertices. The study of this function when is a
single edge is the main subject of extremal graph theory. In the present paper
we investigate the general function, focusing on the cases of triangles,
complete graphs, complete bipartite graphs and trees. These cases reveal
several interesting phenomena. Three representative results are:
(i)
(ii) For any fixed , and ,
and
(iii) For any two trees and , where
is an integer depending on and (its precise definition is
given in Section 1).
The first result improves (slightly) an estimate of Bollob\'as and Gy\H{o}ri.
The proofs combine combinatorial and probabilistic arguments with simple
spectral techniques
Symmetric groups and checker triangulated surfaces
We consider triangulations of surfaces with edges painted three colors so
that edges of each triangle have different colors. Such structures arise as
Belyi data (or Grothendieck dessins d'enfant), on the other hand they enumerate
pairs of permutations determined up to a common conjugation. The topic of these
notes is links of such combinatorial structures with infinite symmetric groups
and their representations.Comment: 20p., 5 fi
