    The mincut graph of a graph

    Full text link
    In this paper we introduce an intersection graph of a graph GG, with vertex set the minimum edge-cuts of GG. We find the minimum cut-set graphs of some well-known families of graphs and show that every graph is a minimum cut-set graph, henceforth called a \emph{mincut graph}. Furthermore, we show that non-isomorphic graphs can have isomorphic mincut graphs and ask the question whether there are sufficient conditions for two graphs to have isomorphic mincut graphs. We introduce the rr-intersection number of a graph GG, the smallest number of elements we need in SS in order to have a family F={S1,S2…,Si}F=\{S_1, S_2 \ldots , S_i\} of subsets, such that ∣Si∣=r|S_i|=r for each subset. Finally we investigate the effect of certain graph operations on the mincut graphs of some families of graphs

    Pseudo-random graphs

    Full text link
    Random graphs have proven to be one of the most important and fruitful concepts in modern Combinatorics and Theoretical Computer Science. Besides being a fascinating study subject for their own sake, they serve as essential instruments in proving an enormous number of combinatorial statements, making their role quite hard to overestimate. Their tremendous success serves as a natural motivation for the following very general and deep informal questions: what are the essential properties of random graphs? How can one tell when a given graph behaves like a random graph? How to create deterministically graphs that look random-like? This leads us to a concept of pseudo-random graphs and the aim of this survey is to provide a systematic treatment of this concept.Comment: 50 page
