Light subgraphs in graphs with average degree at most four
A graph is said to be {\em light} in a family of graphs if
at least one member of contains a copy of and there exists
an integer such that each member of
with a copy of also has a copy of such that
for all . In this
paper, we study the light graphs in the class of graphs with small average
degree, including the plane graphs with some restrictions on girth.Comment: 12 pages, 18 figure
Upper bounds for domination related parameters in graphs on surfaces
AbstractIn this paper we give tight upper bounds on the total domination number, the weakly connected domination number and the connected domination number of a graph in terms of order and Euler characteristic. We also present upper bounds for the restrained bondage number, the total restrained bondage number and the restricted edge connectivity of graphs in terms of the orientable/nonorientable genus and maximum degree
