On the Monophonic Number of a Graph

Abstract: For a connected graph G = (V, E) of order at least two, a set S of vertices of G is a monophonic set of G if each vertex v of G lies on an x − y monophonic path for some elements x and y in S. The minimum cardinality of a monophonic set of G is the monophonic number of G, denoted by m(G). Certain general properties satisfied by the monophonic sets are studied. Graphs G of order p with m(G) = 2 or p or p − 1 are characterized. For every pair a, b of positive integers with 2 ≤ a ≤ b, there is a connected graph G… Show more

“…The monophonic diameter diam m (G) of G is diam m (G) = max {e m (a) : a ∈ V (G)}. A set S of points of a graph G is a monophonic set of G if each point a of G lies on an s − t monophonic path in G for some s,t ∈ S. The minimum cardinality of a monophonic set S is the monophonic number of G and is denoted by m(G), Santhakumaran [8]. A point a is a extreme point of a graph G if the subgraph induced by its neighborhood is complete.…”

“…A set S of vertices of G is a monophonic set of G if each vertex v of G lies on an x − y monophonic path for some x, y ∈ S. The minimum cardinality of a monophonic set of G is the monophonic number of G and is denoted by m(G). The monophonic number of a graph was studied and discussed in [8]. A set S of vertices of G is called a double monophonic set of G if for each pair of vertices x, y in G there exist vertices u, v in S such that x, y lie on a u − v monophonic path.…”
