Betweenness centrality is one of the basic concepts in the analysis of social networks. Initial definition for the betweenness of a node in a graph is based on the fraction of the number of geodesics (shortest paths) between any two nodes that given node lies on, to the total number of the shortest paths connecting these nodes. -
Graph Varieties Axiomatized by Semimedial, Medial, and Some Other Groupoid Identities
Discussiones Mathematicae General Algebra and Applications 40 (2020) 143–157 doi:10.7151/dmgaa.1344 GRAPH VARIETIES AXIOMATIZED BY SEMIMEDIAL, MEDIAL, AND SOME OTHER GROUPOID IDENTITIES Erkko Lehtonen Technische Universit¨at Dresden Institut f¨ur Algebra 01062 Dresden, Germany e-mail: [email protected] and Chaowat Manyuen Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Science Khon Kaen University Khon Kaen 40002, Thailand e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Directed graphs without multiple edges can be represented as algebras of type (2, 0), so-called graph algebras. A graph is said to satisfy an identity if the corresponding graph algebra does, and the set of all graphs satisfying a set of identities is called a graph variety. We describe the graph varieties axiomatized by certain groupoid identities (medial, semimedial, autodis- tributive, commutative, idempotent, unipotent, zeropotent, alternative). Keywords: graph algebra, groupoid, identities, semimediality, mediality. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 05C25, 03C05. 1. Introduction Graph algebras were introduced by Shallon [10] in 1979 with the purpose of providing examples of nonfinitely based finite algebras. Let us briefly recall this concept. Given a directed graph G = (V, E) without multiple edges, the graph algebra associated with G is the algebra A(G) = (V ∪ {∞}, ◦, ∞) of type (2, 0), 144 E. Lehtonen and C. Manyuen where ∞ is an element not belonging to V and the binary operation ◦ is defined by the rule u, if (u, v) ∈ E, u ◦ v := (∞, otherwise, for all u, v ∈ V ∪ {∞}. We will denote the product u ◦ v simply by juxtaposition uv. Using this representation, we may view any algebraic property of a graph algebra as a property of the graph with which it is associated. -
General Approach to Line Graphs of Graphs 1
DEMONSTRATIO MATHEMATICA Vol. XVII! No 2 1985 Antoni Marczyk, Zdzislaw Skupien GENERAL APPROACH TO LINE GRAPHS OF GRAPHS 1. Introduction A unified approach to the notion of a line graph of general graphs is adopted and proofs of theorems announced in [6] are presented. Those theorems characterize five different types of line graphs. Both Krausz-type and forbidden induced sub- graph characterizations are provided. So far other authors introduced and dealt with single spe- cial notions of a line graph of graphs possibly belonging to a special subclass of graphs. In particular, the notion of a simple line graph of a simple graph is implied by a paper of Whitney (1932). Since then it has been repeatedly introduc- ed, rediscovered and generalized by many authors, among them are Krausz (1943), Izbicki (1960$ a special line graph of a general graph), Sabidussi (1961) a simple line graph of a loop-free graph), Menon (1967} adjoint graph of a general graph) and Schwartz (1969; interchange graph which coincides with our line graph defined below). In this paper we follow another way, originated in our previous work [6]. Namely, we distinguish special subclasses of general graphs and consider five different types of line graphs each of which is defined in a natural way. Note that a similar approach to the notion of a line graph of hypergraphs can be adopted. We consider here the following line graphsi line graphs, loop-free line graphs, simple line graphs, as well as augmented line graphs and augmented loop-free line graphs. - 447 - 2 A. Marczyk, Z. -
P2k-Factorization of Complete Bipartite Multigraphs
P2k-factorization of complete bipartite multigraphs Beiliang Du Department of Mathematics Suzhou University Suzhou 215006 People's Republic of China Abstract We show that a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a P2k-factorization of the complete bipartite- multigraph )"Km,n is m = n == 0 (mod k(2k - l)/d), where d = gcd()", 2k - 1). 1. Introduction Let Km,n be the complete bipartite graph with two partite sets having m and n vertices respectively. The graph )"Km,n is the disjoint union of ).. graphs each isomorphic to Km,n' A subgraph F of )"Km,n is called a spanning subgraph of )"Km,n if F contains all the vertices of )"Km,n' It is clear that a graph with no isolated vertices is uniquely determined by the set of its edges. So in this paper, we consider a graph with no isolated vertices to be a set of 2-element subsets of its vertices. For positive integer k, a path on k vertices is denoted by Pk. A Pk-factor of )'Km,n is a spanning subgraph F of )"Km,n such that every component of F is a Pk and every pair of Pk's have no vertex in common. A Pk-factorization of )"Km,n is a set of edge-disjoint Pk-factors of )"Km,n which is a partition of the set of edges of )'Km,n' (In paper [4] a Pk-factorization of )"Km,n is defined to be a resolvable (m, n, k,)..) bipartite Pk design.) The multigraph )"Km,n is called Ph-factorable whenever it has a Ph-factorization. -

Visualizing Graphs: Optimization and Trade-Offs
Visualizing Graphs: Optimization and Trade-offs by Debajyoti Mondal A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Computer Science University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright c 2016 by Debajyoti Mondal Thesis advisor Author Dr. Stephane Durocher Debajyoti Mondal Abstract Effective visualization of graphs is a powerful tool to help understand the rela- tionships among the graph’s underlying objects and to interact with them. Sev- eral styles for drawing graphs have emerged over the last three decades. Polyline drawing is a widely used style for drawing graphs, where each node is mapped to a distinct point in the plane and each edge is mapped to a polygonal chain between their corresponding nodes. Some common optimization criteria for such a drawing are defined in terms of area requirement, number of bends per edge, angular resolution, number of distinct line segments, edge crossings, and number of planar layers. In this thesis we develop algorithms for drawing graphs that optimize different aesthetic qualities of the drawing. Our algorithms seek to simultaneously opti- mize multiple drawing aesthetics, reveal potential trade-offs among them, and improve many previous graph drawing algorithms. We start by exploring probable trade-offs in the context of planar graphs. We prove that every n-vertex planar triangulation G with maximum degree D can be drawn with at most 2n + t 3 segments and O(8t D2t) area, where t is the − · number of leaves in a Schnyder tree of G. -

Modeling Multiple Relationships in Social Networks
Asim AnsAri, Oded KOenigsberg, and FlOriAn stAhl * Firms are increasingly seeking to harness the potential of social networks for marketing purposes. therefore, marketers are interested in understanding the antecedents and consequences of relationship formation within networks and in predicting interactivity among users. the authors develop an integrated statistical framework for simultaneously modeling the connectivity structure of multiple relationships of different types on a common set of actors. their modeling approach incorporates several distinct facets to capture both the determinants of relationships and the structural characteristics of multiplex and sequential networks. they develop hierarchical bayesian methods for estimation and illustrate their model with two applications: the first application uses a sequential network of communications among managers involved in new product development activities, and the second uses an online collaborative social network of musicians. the authors’ applications demonstrate the benefits of modeling multiple relations jointly for both substantive and predictive purposes. they also illustrate how information in one relationship can be leveraged to predict connectivity in another relation. Keywords : social networks, online networks, bayesian, multiple relationships, sequential relationships modeling multiple relationships in social networks The rapid growth of online social networks has led to a social commerce (Stephen and Toubia 2010; Van den Bulte resurgence of interest in the marketing -

The List Linear Arboricity of Graphs Ringi Kim1 Department of Mathematical Sciences KAIST Daejeon South Korea 34141 and Luke Postle2 Department of Combinatorics and Optimization University of Waterloo Waterloo, ON Canada N2L 3G1 ABSTRACT A linear forest is a forest in which every connected component is a path. The linear arboricity of a graph G is the minimum number of linear forests of G covering all edges. In 1980, Akiyama, Exoo and Harary proposed a conjecture, known as the Linear Arboricity Conjecture (LAC), stating ∆+1 that every ∆-regular graph G has linear arboricity 2 . In 1988, Alon proved that the LAC holds asymptotically. In 1999, the list version of the LAC wa s raised by An and Wu, which is called the List Linear Arboricity Conjecture. In this article, we prove that the List Linear Arboricity Conjecture holds asymptotically. arXiv:1712.05006v1 [math.CO] 13 Dec 2017 November 23, 2017. [email protected]. [email protected].

A linear forest is a forest in which every connected component is a path. The linear arboricity of a graph G, denoted by la(G), first introduced by Harary [13], is the minimum number of linear forests of G needed to cover all edges of G. Akiyama, Exoo and Harary [1] proposed a conjecture, known as the Linear Arboricity ∆+1 Conjecture, stating that for every ∆-regular graph G, la(G) = 2 . -
The Chromatic Index of Nearly Bipartite Multigraphs
JOURNAL OF COMBINATORIAL THEORY, Series B 40, 71-80 (1986) The Chromatic Index of Nearly Bipartite Multigraphs LARRY EGGAN AND MICHAEL PLANTHOLT Department of Mathematics, Illinois State University Normal, Illinois 61761 Communicated by the Editors Received January 5, 1984 We determine the chromatic index of any multigraph which contains a vertex whose deletion results in a bipartite multigraph. 0 1986Academic Press, Inc. 1. INTRODUCTION We denote the vertex and edge sets of a multigraph M by v(M) and E(M), respectively. An (edge) coloring of a multigraph is an assignment of colors to its edges in such a way that no two adjacent edges are assigned the same color. The chromatic index x’(M) of a multigraph M is the minimum number of colors used among all possible colorings of A4. Shan- non [ 13) proved that for any multigraph A4 with maximum degree d(M), d(M) <X’(M) d 1. d(M), while Vizing’s theorem [14] states that the chromatic index of a (simple) graph G is either d(G) or d(G) + 1. Although the general problem of determining the chromatic index of a graph (and therefore of multigraphs) is NP-complete (Holyer [6]), some good results have been obtained by considering special families of graphs of multigraphs where the x’ invariant behaves more predictably. For any multigraph A4, let t(M) = max,(2 IE(H)(/( 1V(H)1 - l)>, where the maximum is taken over all induced submultigraphs of A4 which have an odd number of vertices, and let 4(M) = max{d(M), [t(M)]). -
