The strong matching preclusion number of a graph is the minimum number of vertices and edges whose deletion results in a graph that has neither perfect matchings nor almost-perfect matchings. Park and Ihm introduced the problem of strong matching preclusion under the condition that no isolated vertex is created as a result of faults. In this paper, we find the conditional strong matching preclusion number for the n-dimensional alternating group graph AG n .
Pancylicity was introduced by Bondy in 1971. A graph G with vertex set V(G) and edge set E(G) is pancyclic if it contains cycles of lengths l, for 3 ≤ l ≤ |V(G)|. This concept has been extended to edge-pancyclicity. If every edge of G is in a cycle of every length, G is edge-pancyclic. If every edge lies on cycles of all lengths ranging from k to |V(G)|, G is k-edge-pancyclic. In this paper, we prove that the n-dimensional pancake graph is 7-edge-pancyclic.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
