  • New Invariants for Partitioning a Graph Into 2-Connected Subgraphs

    Furuya M., Kashima M., Ota K.

    Journal of Graph Theory 109 ( 4 ) 505 - 513 2025.08

    ISSN  03649024

     View Summary

    Let (Formula presented.) be a graph of order (Formula presented.). For an integer (Formula presented.), a partition (Formula presented.) of (Formula presented.) is called a (Formula presented.) -proper partition of (Formula presented.) if every (Formula presented.) induces a (Formula presented.) -connected subgraph of (Formula presented.). This concept was introduced by Ferrara et al., and Borozan et al. gave minimum degree conditions for the existence of a (Formula presented.) -proper partition. In particular, when (Formula presented.), they proved that if (Formula presented.), then (Formula presented.) has a 2-proper partition (Formula presented.) with (Formula presented.). Later, Chen et al. extended the result by giving a minimum degree sum condition for the existence of a 2-proper partition. In this paper, we introduce two new invariants of graphs (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.), which are defined from degree sum of particular independent sets. Our result is that if (Formula presented.), then with some exceptions, (Formula presented.) has a 2-proper partition (Formula presented.) with (Formula presented.). We completely determine exceptional graphs. This result implies both of results by Borozan et al. and by Chen et al. Moreover, we obtain a minimum degree product condition for the existence of a 2-proper partition as a corollary of our result.

  • Some conditions for hamiltonian cycles in 1-tough (K2 ∪ kK1)-free graphs

    Ota K., Sanka M.

    Discrete Mathematics 347 ( 3 )  2024.03

    ISSN  0012365X

     View Summary

    Let k≥2 be an integer. We say that a graph G is (K<inf>2</inf>∪kK<inf>1</inf>)-free if it does not contain K<inf>2</inf>∪kK<inf>1</inf> as an induced subgraph. Recently, Shi and Shan conjectured that every 1-tough and 2k-connected (K<inf>2</inf>∪kK<inf>1</inf>)-free graph is hamiltonian. In this paper, we solve this conjecture by proving that every 1-tough and k-connected (K<inf>2</inf>∪kK<inf>1</inf>)-free graph with minimum degree at least [Formula presented] is hamiltonian or the Petersen graph.

  • Minimum degree conditions for the existence of a sequence of cycles whose lengths differ by one or two

    Chiba S., Ota K., Yamashita T.

    Journal of Graph Theory 103 ( 2 ) 340 - 358 2023.06

    ISSN  03649024

     View Summary

    Gao, Huo, Liu, and Ma proved a result on the existence of paths connecting specified two vertices whose lengths differ by one or two. By using this result, they settled two famous conjectures due to Thomassen. In this paper, we improve their result, and obtain a generalization of a result of Bondy and Vince.

  • Graph grabbing game on totally-weighted graphs

    Matsumoto N., Moriyama R., Ota K.

    Discrete Applied Mathematics 322   384 - 390 2022.12

    ISSN  0166218X

     View Summary

    The graph grabbing game is a two-player game on a connected graph with a vertex-weight function. In the game, they alternately remove a non-cut vertex from the graph (i.e., the resulting graph remains connected) and get the weight assigned to the vertex. Each player's aim is to maximize his or her outcome, when all vertices have been taken. In this paper, we consider the graph grabbing game on totally-weighted graphs that are graphs with weight functions from a set of elements in the vertex set and the edge set to non-negative real numbers. In this version, when a player removes a non-cut vertex v, that player gets the weight of v plus the total weight assigned to the edges incident to v. In particular, we give some results of interest for the graph grabbing game on edge-weighted trees, i.e., every vertex has weight zero. Moreover, we consider the game on edge-weighed graphs in the altered rule that each player must keep the connectedness of graphs induced by edges.

  • Hamiltonian cycles in 2-tough 2K2-free graphs

    Ota K., Sanka M.

    Journal of Graph Theory 101 ( 4 ) 769 - 781 2022.12

    ISSN  03649024

     View Summary

    A graph (Formula presented.) is called a (Formula presented.) -free graph if it does not contain (Formula presented.) as an induced subgraph. In 2014, Broersma, Patel, and Pyatkin showed that every 25-tough (Formula presented.) -free graph on at least three vertices is Hamiltonian. Recently, Shan improved this result by showing that 3-tough is sufficient instead of 25-tough. In this paper, we show that every 2-tough (Formula presented.) -free graph on at least three vertices is Hamiltonian, which was conjectured by Gao and Pasechnik.
