3- and 4-critical graphs of small even order
1997
Discrete Mathematics
We show that there is exactly one 3-critical graph of order 22 and that there are exactly nine of order 24. The graph of order 22 is shown to be the smallest 3-critical graph of even order. ...
We also show that there are exactly two 4-critical graphs of order 18, and that these graphs are the smallest 4-critical graphs of even order. The results are obtained with the aid of a computer. ...
It is known that there are no critical graphs of even order less than 12, that there are no 3-critical graphs of order 12 or 14 (see [15] ), and that there are no 4-critical graphs of order 12 [3, 5] ...

Critical concepts in domination

This theorem is a direct consequence of Theorem 26 and the observation that the graphs in Fig. 8 are both nonplanar. ...
Unfortunately it is impossible to provide a finite forbidden characterization of the entire class of domination perfect graphs. ...

The lack of a 4-coloring of our graphs is due to a clear pattern enforced on some vertices. ...
We present a new method for reducing the size of graphs with a given property. ...

Because m m ðK 3 Þ; for arbitrary m; is a planar graph with connectivity 3 and maximum degree 4; it provides another counterexample to a question asked by Vince (J. Graph Theory 17 (1993) 349). ...
For any positive even number nðX2Þ and any nonnegative integer m; we show that w c ðm m ðK n ÞÞ ¼ n þ ð1=tÞ; where t ¼ I2m=nm þ 1: This gives a family of arbitrarily large critical graphs G with high connectivity ...

The classes of q-critical graphs of order n are characterised in this paper for all admissible combinations of values of n and q. ...
The cardinality of a smallest dominating set of G is called the domination number of G and a nonempty graph G is q-critical if q is the smallest number of arbitrary edges of G whose removal from G necessarily ...

Chromatic-Index-Critical Graphs of Orders 11 and 12
1998
European journal of combinatorics (Print)
We prove that there is no chromatic-index-critical graph of order 12, and that there are precisely two non-trivial chromatic index critical graphs on 11 vertices. ...
Together with known results this implies that there are precisely three non-trivial chromaticindex-critical graphs of order 12. ...

Monte Carlo Simulation of Small-World Models with Weak Long-Range Interactions
[article]
2006
arXiv
pre-print
Large-scale Monte Carlo simulations, together with scaling, are used to obtain the critical behavior of the Hastings long-range model and two corresponding models based on small-world networks. ...
These models have combined short- and long-range interactions. For all three models, the critical scaling behavior predicted by Hastings [Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 098701] is verified. ...
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We acknowledge useful discussions with a number of people, particularly Gyorgy Korniss, Per Arne Rikvold, and Zoltan Toroczkai. ...

The spectral radius of edge chromatic critical graphs

A connected graph G with maximum degree ∆ and edge chromatic number χ (G) = ∆ + 1 is called ∆-critical if χ (G − e) = ∆ for every edge e of G. ...
In this paper, we consider two weaker versions of Vizing's conjecture, which concern the spectral radius ρ(G) and the signless Laplacian spectral radius µ(G) of G. ...

Morphology of small snarks
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
The aim of this paper is to classify all snarks up to order 36 and explain the reasons of their uncolourability. ...
Our results reveal that most of the analysed snarks are built up from pieces of the Petersen graph and can be naturally distributed into a small number of classes having the same reason for uncolourability ...
This can be observed already among snarks
of small order: there are exactly 55172 critical snarks of order not exceeding 36, but only
846 of them are strictly critical, just slightly over 1.5 percent [ ...
