In this paper, by applying the discharging method, we show that if G is a planar graph with a maximum degree of Δ = 6 that does not contain any adjacent 8-cycles, then G is of class 1.

The nearest neighbor interchange (nni) distance is a classical metric for measuring the distance (dissimilarity) between evolutionary trees. It has been known that computing the nni distance is NP-complete. Existing approximation algorithms can attain an approximation ratio log n for unweighted trees and 4 log n for weighted trees; yet these algorithms are limited to degree-3 trees. This paper extends the study of nni distance to trees with non-uniform degrees. We formulate the necessary and sufficient conditions for nni transformation and devise more topology-sensitive approximation algorithms to handle trees with non-uniform degrees. The approximation ratios are respectively [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for unweighted and weighted trees, where d ≥ 4 is the maximum degree of the input trees.

A 2-rainbow dominating function (2RDF) of a graph [Formula: see text] is a function [Formula: see text] from the vertex set [Formula: see text] to the set of all subsets of the set [Formula: see text] such that for any vertex [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text], the condition [Formula: see text] is fulfilled. The weight of a 2RDF [Formula: see text] is the value [Formula: see text]. The [Formula: see text]-rainbow domination number of a graph [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is the minimum weight of a 2RDF of [Formula: see text]. The rainbow bondage number [Formula: see text] of a graph [Formula: see text] with maximum degree at least two is the minimum cardinality of all sets [Formula: see text] for which [Formula: see text]. Dehgardi, Sheikholeslami and Volkmann, [The [Formula: see text]-rainbow bondage number of a graph, Discrete Appl. Math. 174 (2014) 133–139] proved that the rainbow bondage number of a planar graph does not exceed 15. In this paper, we generalize their result for graphs which admit a [Formula: see text]-cell embedding on a surface with non-negative Euler characteristic.

A graph $G$ is $(d_1,...,d_l)$-colorable if the vertex set of $G$ can be partitioned into subsets $V_1,\ldots ,V_l$ such that the graph $G[V_i]$ induced by the vertices of $V_i$ has maximum degree at most $d_i$ for all $1 \leq i \leq l$. In this paper, we focus on complexity aspects of such colorings when $l=2,3$. More precisely, we prove that, for any fixed integers $k,j,g$ with $(k,j) \neq (0,0)$ and $g\geq3$, either every planar graph with girth at least $g$ is $(k,j)$-colorable or it is NP-complete to determine whether a planar graph with girth at least $g$ is $(k,j)$-colorable. Also, for any fixed integer $k$, it is NP-complete to determine whether a planar graph that is either $(0,0,0)$-colorable or non-$(k,k,1)$-colorable is $(0,0,0)$-colorable. Additionally, we exhibit non-$(3,1)$-colorable planar graphs with girth 5 and non-$(2,0)$-colorable planar graphs with girth 7.

AbstractWe establish a relationship between decay centrality and two widely used measures of centrality, namely degree and closeness. We show that for low values of the decay parameter the nodes with maximum decay centrality also have maximum degree, whereas for high values of the decay parameter they also maximize closeness. For intermediate values, we provide sufficient conditions that allow the comparison of decay centrality of different nodes and we show via numerical simulations that in the vast majority of networks, the nodes with maximum decay centrality are characterized by a threshold on the decay parameter below which they belong to the set of nodes with maximum degree and above which they belong to the set of nodes with maximum closeness. We also propose a simple rule of thumb that ensures a nearly optimal choice with very high probability.
