Questions about the branch of combinatorics called graph theory (not to be used for questions concerning the graph of a function). This tag can be further specialized via using it in combination with more specialized tags such as extremal-graph-theory, spectral-graph-theory, algebraic-graph-theory, topological-graph-theory, random-graphs, graph-colorings and several others.

All pairs shortest path with maximum distance

Interpreting your question that you want to find the shortest paths in order of increasing length, then a nested Dijkstra algorithm may solve your problem also in case of directed graphs. I assume you …

All pairs shortest path with maximum distance

maybe this paper, in which the calculation of the all pairs shortest paths in $O(n^2)$ with high probability is solved, meets your requirements. Some preconditions about the distribution of edge lengt …

History of the Vertex Disjoint Cycle Cover with Minimal Edgeweight Sum

Questions: who first posed the problem of determining a collection of (directed) cycles, whose edgeweight sum is minimal and, for which each vertex belongs to exactly one of the cycles? who came up …

Graph of the optimal spanning trees of a complete weighted graph

Given a complete weighted graph $G(V,E);\ E=\lbrace\lbrace u,v\rbrace\,|\,u,v\in V\rbrace$, the set $\mathbb{T}$ of the spanning trees of $G$ is the disjoint union of sets of spanning trees, whose und …

3-coloring of specific planar graphs

a different approach would be to consider a planar embedding of the graph G into the euclidean plane and then proceed as follows: as long as there are pairs of odd "faces" with a common edge (i.e. cy …

History of the Vertex Disjoint Cycle Cover with Minimal Edgeweight Sum

I just found an online publication related to the problem: "The Cycle Cover Problem" by J.L. Szwarcfiter and B.L. Wilson, Technical Report No 131 1979, University of Newcastle upon Tyne, UK. As tha …

Graph connectivity after deleting an f-factor

Let $G(V,E)$ be an undirekted $k$-vertex-connected, $k$-regular graph and let $F$ be an $f$-factor of $G$ consisting of a set of $f$-vertex-connected components, $f<k$. Question: what is the v …

Freely accessible collections of graph data

This question aims at providing links to definitions of graphs that either come from real-world problem or research that can be accessed and used freely; good examples in that vein are TSPLIB95 or the …

Minimally 2-vertex-connected graphs?

I conjecture that a a sufficient condition for a graph being minimally 2-vertex-connected is that it is $2$-vertex-connected and if every vertex $u$ is adjacent to some vertex $v$ of degree $2$ and c …

Shortest Paths in the "Cantor Graph"

First, let me explain, what I understand by a "Cantor Graph": it is an infinite, directed graph with self loops and countably many vertices labelled with the natural numbers; every ordered pair of …

Minimally 2-vertex-connected graphs?

$K_3$ is the only graph with a triangle that contains a bivalent vertex, and is a minimally vertex 2-connected graph (MV2CG). According to the two ears theorem every triangulated polygon with at least …

Is there an algorithm for generating sets of routes that satisfy edge volume constraints?

At the very lowest level of modelling, one has to make some assumptions about the chosen paths, e.g. that they are the optimal ones connecting a pair of nodes. With that assumption, one obtains for ea …

Alternative parallel paths

the answer is yes, simply because there are at least two different paths for $n\ge 2$. Assuming that at least two different paths exist for $n\ge 2$ one can interpret the 1st path as a $0$bit and the …

Shortest path in a weighted graph with coloured edges

The problem can be reduced to an ordinary shortest path problem via vertex splitting where however, the number of generated vertices equals the degree of the original vertex and not two, as is commonl …

Pitfalls with modeling problems as graphs

The motivation for this question is that I could solve problem by extracting a graph structure from it and then applying a standard graph-algorithm and transfering the solution back to the interpretat …
