Abstract Under an edge coloring (not necessarily proper), a rainbow path is a path whose edge colors are all distinct. The d-local rainbow connection number lrcd(G) (respectively, d-local strong rainbow connection number lsrcd(G)) is the smallest number of colors needed to color the edges of G such that any two vertices with distance at most d can be connected by a rainbow path (respectively, rainbow geodesic). This generalizes rainbow connection numbers, which are the special case d = diam(G). We discuss some bounds and exact values. Moreover, we also characterize all triples of positive integers d, a, b such that there is a connected graph G with lrcd(G) = a and lsrcd(G) = b.
在边缘着色(不一定是正确的)下，彩虹路径是边缘颜色都不同的路径。d-局部彩虹连接数lrcd(G)(分别为d-局部强彩虹连接数lsrcd(G))是为G的边缘上色所需的最小颜色数，使得任何两个距离不超过d的顶点都可以通过彩虹路径(分别为彩虹测地线)连接起来。这概括了彩虹连接数，即特殊情况d = diam(G)。我们讨论了一些边界和精确值。此外，我们还刻画了所有正整数d, a, b的三元组，使得存在lrcd(G) = a且lsrcd(G) = b的连通图G。

Abstract A graph G is locally 𝒫, abbreviated L𝒫, if for every vertex v in G the open neighbourhood N(v) of v is non-empty and induces a graph with property 𝒫. Specifically, a graph G without isolated vertices is locally connected (LC) if N(v) induces a connected graph for each v ∈ V (G), and locally hamiltonian (LH) if N(v) induces a hamiltonian graph for each v ∈ V (G). A graph G is locally locally 𝒫 (abbreviated L2𝒫) if N(v) is non-empty and induces a locally 𝒫 graph for every v ∈ V (G). This concept is generalized to an arbitrary degree of nesting. For any k 0 we call a graph locally k-nested-hamiltonian if it is LmC for m = 0, 1, . . ., k and LkH (with L0C and L0H meaning connected and hamiltonian, respectively). The class of locally k-nested-hamiltonian graphs contains important subclasses. For example, Skupień had already observed in 1963 that the class of connected LH graphs (which is the class of locally 1-nested-hamiltonian graphs) contains all triangulations of closed surfaces. We show that for any k ≥ 1 the class of locally k-nested-hamiltonian graphs contains all simple-clique (k + 2)-trees. In 1979 Oberly and Sumner proved that every connected K1,3-free graph that is locally connected is hamiltonian. They conjectured that for k ≥ 1, every connected K1,k+3-free graph that is locally (k + 1)-connected is hamiltonian. We show that locally k-nested-hamiltonian graphs are locally (k + 1)-connected and consider the weaker conjecture that every K1,k+3-free graph that is locally k-nested-hamiltonian is hamiltonian. We show that if our conjecture is true, it would be “best possible” in the sense that for every k ≥ 1 there exist K1,k+4-free locally k-nested-hamiltonian graphs that are non-hamiltonian. We also attempt to determine the minimum order of non-hamiltonian locally k-nested-hamiltonian graphs and investigate the complexity of the Hamilton Cycle Problem for locally k-nested-hamiltonian graphs with restricted maximum degree.

Abstract We consider signed graphs with just 2 or 3 distinct eigenvalues, in particular (i) those with at least one simple eigenvalue, and (ii) those with vertex-deleted subgraphs which themselves have at most 3 distinct eigenvalues. We also construct new examples using weighing matrices and symmetric 3-class association schemes.

Abstract Concerning diagonal flips on triangulations, Gao et al. showed that any triangulation G on the sphere with n ≥ 5 vertices has at least n − 2 flippable edges. Furthermore, if G has minimum degree at least 4 and n ≥ 9, then G has at least 2n + 3 flippable edges. In this paper, we give a simpler proof of their results, and extend them to the case of the projective plane, the torus and the Klein bottle. Finally, we give an estimation for the number of flippable edges of a triangulation on general surfaces, using the notion of irreducible triangulations.

Abstract An edge coloring φ of a graph G is called an Mf-edge coloring if | φ(v)| ≤ f(v) for every vertex v of G, where φ(v) is the set of colors of edges incident with v and f is a function which assigns a positive integer f(v) to each vertex v. Let 𝒦f (G) denote the maximum number of colors used in an Mf-edge coloring of G. In this paper we establish some bounds on 𝒦f(G), present some graphs achieving the bounds and determine exact values of 𝒦f(G) for some special classes of graphs.

Abstract For a graph G, a Roman {3}-dominating function is a function f : V → {0, 1, 2, 3} having the property that for every vertex u ∈ V, if f(u) ∈ {0, 1}, then f(N[u]) ≥ 3. The weight of a Roman {3}-dominating function is the sum w(f) = f(V) = Σv∈V f(v), and the minimum weight of a Roman {3}-dominating function is the Roman {3}-domination number, denoted by γ{R3}(G). In this paper, we present a sharp lower bound for the double Italian domination number of a graph, and improve previous bounds given in [D.A. Mojdeh and L. Volkmann, Roman {3}-domination (double Italian domination), Discrete Appl. Math. 283 (2022) 555–564]. We also present a probabilistic upper bound for a generalized version of double Italian domination number of a graph, and show that the given bound is asymptotically best possible.

Abstract A graph G of order n is arbitrarily partitionable (AP) if, for every sequence (n1, . . ., np) partitioning n, there is a partition (V1, . . ., ,Vp) of V (G) such that G[Vi] is a connected ni-graph for i = 1, . . ., p. The property of being AP is related to other well-known graph notions, such as perfect matchings and Hamiltonian cycles, with which it shares several properties. This work is dedicated to studying two aspects behind AP graphs. On the one hand, we consider algorithmic aspects of AP graphs, which received some attention in previous works. We first establish the NP-hardness of the problem of partitioning a graph into connected subgraphs following a given sequence, for various new graph classes of interest. We then prove that the problem of deciding whether a graph is AP is in NP for several classes of graphs, confirming a conjecture of Barth and Fournier for these. On the other hand, we consider the weakening to APness of su cient conditions for Hamiltonicity. While previous works have suggested that such conditions can sometimes indeed be weakened, we here point out cases where this is not true. This is done by considering conditions for Hamiltonicity involving squares of graphs, and claw- and net-free graphs.

Abstract The crossing number of a graph G is the minimum number of edge crossings over all drawings of G in the plane. Recently, the crossing numbers of join products of two graphs have been studied. In the paper, we extend know results concerning crossing numbers of join products of small graphs with discrete graphs. The crossing number of the join product G*+ Dn for the disconnected graph G* consisting of five vertices and of three edges incident with the same vertex is given. Up to now, the crossing numbers of G + Dn were done only for connected graphs G. In the paper also the crossing numbers of G*+ Pn and G* + Cn are given. The paper concludes by giving the crossing numbers of the graphs H + Dn, H + Pn, and H + Cn for four different graphs H with |E(H)| ≤ |V (H)|. The methods used in the paper are new. They are based on combinatorial properties of cyclic permutations.

Abstract A signed graph has edge weights drawn from the set {+1, −1}, and is sign-balanced if it is equivalent to an unsigned graph under the operation of sign switching; otherwise it is sign-unbalanced. A nut graph has a one dimensional kernel of the 0-1 adjacency matrix with a corresponding eigenvector that is full. In this paper we generalise the notion of nut graphs to signed graphs. Orders for which regular nut graphs with all edge weights +1 exist have been determined recently for the degrees up to 12. By extending the definition to signed graphs, we here find all pairs (ρ, n) for which a ρ-regular nut graph (sign-balanced or sign-unbalanced) of order n exists with ρ ≤ 11. We devise a construction for signed nut graphs based on a smaller ‘seed’ graph, giving infinite series of both sign-balanced and sign-unbalanced ρ -regular nut graphs. Orders for which a regular nut graph with ρ = n − 1 exists are characterised; they are sign-unbalanced with an underlying graph Kn for which n ≡ 1 (mod 4). Orders for which a regular sign-unbalanced nut graph with ρ = n − 2 exists are also characterised; they have an underlying cocktail-party graph CP(n) with even order n ≥ 8.

Abstract A packing of a graph G is a subset P of the vertex set of G such that the closed neighborhoods of any two distinct vertices of P do not intersect. We study graphs with a unique packing of the maximum cardinality. We present several general properties for such graphs. These properties are used to characterize the trees with a unique maximum packing. Two characterizations are presented where one of them is inductive based on five operations.
