Weakly toll convexity in graph products
The exploration of weakly toll convexity is the focus of this investigation.
A weakly toll walk is any walk between and
such that is adjacent only to the vertex , which can appear more
than once in the walk, and is adjacent only to the vertex , which
can appear more than once in the walk. Through an examination of general graphs
and an analysis of weakly toll intervals in both lexicographic and
(generalized) corona product graphs, precise values of the weakly toll number
for these product graphs are obtained. Notably, in both instances, the weakly
toll number is constrained to either 2 or 3. Additionally, the determination of
the weakly toll number for the Cartesian and the strong product graphs is
established through previously established findings in toll convexity theory.
Lastly for all graph products examined within our scope, the weakly toll hull
number is consistently determined to be 2
The Toll Walk Transit Function of a Graph: Axiomatic Characterizations and First-Order Non-definability
A walk , , is called a toll walk if
and and are the only neighbors of and ,
respectively, on in a graph . A toll walk interval , , contains all the vertices that belong to a toll walk between and
. The toll walk intervals yield a toll walk transit function . We represent several axioms that characterize the
toll walk transit function among chordal graphs, trees, asteroidal triple-free
graphs, Ptolemaic graphs, and distance hereditary graphs. We also show that the
toll walk transit function can not be described in the language of first-order
logic for an arbitrary graph.Comment: 31 pages, 4 figures, 25 reference
