On perfect codes in Cartesian products of graphs
AbstractAssuming the existence of a partition in perfect codes of the vertex set of a finite or infinite bipartite graph G we give the construction of a perfect code in the Cartesian product Gâ–¡Gâ–¡P2. Such a partition is easily obtained in the case of perfect codes in Abelian Cayley graphs and we give some examples of applications of this result and its generalizations
Partitioning the vertex set of to make an efficient open domination graph
A graph is an efficient open domination graph if there exists a subset of
vertices whose open neighborhoods partition its vertex set. We characterize
those graphs for which the Cartesian product is an efficient
open domination graph when is a complete graph of order at least 3 or a
complete bipartite graph. The characterization is based on the existence of a
certain type of weak partition of . For the class of trees when is
complete of order at least 3, the characterization is constructive. In
addition, a special type of efficient open domination graph is characterized
among Cartesian products when is a 5-cycle or a 4-cycle.Comment: 16 pages, 2 figure
Perfect domination in regular grid graphs
We show there is an uncountable number of parallel total perfect codes in the
integer lattice graph of . In contrast, there is just one
1-perfect code in and one total perfect code in
restricting to total perfect codes of rectangular grid graphs (yielding an
asymmetric, Penrose, tiling of the plane). We characterize all cycle products
with parallel total perfect codes, and the -perfect and
total perfect code partitions of and , the former
having as quotient graph the undirected Cayley graphs of with
generator set . For , generalization for 1-perfect codes is
provided in the integer lattice of and in the products of cycles,
with partition quotient graph taken as the undirected Cayley graph
of with generator set .Comment: 16 pages; 11 figures; accepted for publication in Austral. J. Combi
Dominating sequences in grid-like and toroidal graphs
A longest sequence of distinct vertices of a graph such that each
vertex of dominates some vertex that is not dominated by its preceding
vertices, is called a Grundy dominating sequence; the length of is the
Grundy domination number of . In this paper we study the Grundy domination
number in the four standard graph products: the Cartesian, the lexicographic,
the direct, and the strong product. For each of the products we present a lower
bound for the Grundy domination number which turns out to be exact for the
lexicographic product and is conjectured to be exact for the strong product. In
most of the cases exact Grundy domination numbers are determined for products
of paths and/or cycles.Comment: 17 pages 3 figure
Arithmetic completely regular codes
In this paper, we explore completely regular codes in the Hamming graphs and
related graphs. Experimental evidence suggests that many completely regular
codes have the property that the eigenvalues of the code are in arithmetic
progression. In order to better understand these "arithmetic completely regular
codes", we focus on cartesian products of completely regular codes and products
of their corresponding coset graphs in the additive case. Employing earlier
results, we are then able to prove a theorem which nearly classifies these
codes in the case where the graph admits a completely regular partition into
such codes (e.g, the cosets of some additive completely regular code).
Connections to the theory of distance-regular graphs are explored and several
open questions are posed.Comment: 26 pages, 1 figur
