Adjacency labeling schemes and induced-universal graphs
We describe a way of assigning labels to the vertices of any undirected graph
on up to vertices, each composed of bits, such that given the
labels of two vertices, and no other information regarding the graph, it is
possible to decide whether or not the vertices are adjacent in the graph. This
is optimal, up to an additive constant, and constitutes the first improvement
in almost 50 years of an bound of Moon. As a consequence, we
obtain an induced-universal graph for -vertex graphs containing only
vertices, which is optimal up to a multiplicative constant,
solving an open problem of Vizing from 1968. We obtain similar tight results
for directed graphs, tournaments and bipartite graphs
Solving the Canonical Representation and Star System Problems for Proper Circular-Arc Graphs in Log-Space
We present a logspace algorithm that constructs a canonical intersection
model for a given proper circular-arc graph, where `canonical' means that
models of isomorphic graphs are equal. This implies that the recognition and
the isomorphism problems for this class of graphs are solvable in logspace. For
a broader class of concave-round graphs, that still possess (not necessarily
proper) circular-arc models, we show that those can also be constructed
canonically in logspace. As a building block for these results, we show how to
compute canonical models of circular-arc hypergraphs in logspace, which are
also known as matrices with the circular-ones property. Finally, we consider
the search version of the Star System Problem that consists in reconstructing a
graph from its closed neighborhood hypergraph. We solve it in logspace for the
classes of proper circular-arc, concave-round, and co-convex graphs.Comment: 19 pages, 3 figures, major revisio
Magic graphs and the faces of the Birkhoff polytope
Magic labelings of graphs are studied in great detail by Stanley and Stewart.
In this article, we construct and enumerate magic labelings of graphs using
Hilbert bases of polyhedral cones and Ehrhart quasi-polynomials of polytopes.
We define polytopes of magic labelings of graphs and digraphs. We give a
description of the faces of the Birkhoff polytope as polytopes of magic
labelings of digraphs.Comment: 9 page
