Fractional Strong Matching Preclusion of Split-Star Networks

Abstract

The matching preclusion number of graph G is the minimum size of edges whose deletion leaves the resulting graph without a perfect matching or an almost perfect matching. Let F be an edge subset and F′ be a subset of edges and vertices of a graph G. If G − F and G − F′ have no fractional matching preclusion, then F is a fractional matching preclusion (FMP) set, and F ′is a fractional strong matching preclusion (FSMP) set of G. The FMP (FSMP) number of G is the minimum number of FMP (FSMP) set of G. In this paper, we study fractional matching preclusion number and fractional strong matching preclusion number of split-star networks. Moreover, We categorize all the optimal fractional strong matching preclusion sets of split-star networks.
