We consider generalizations of the Tutte polynomial on multigraphs obtained by keeping the main recurrence relation T(G)=T(GÂe)+T(G&e) for e # E(G) neither a bridge nor a loop and dropping the relations for bridges and loops. Our first aim is to find the universal invariant satisfying these conditio

## Abstract A generalized type of graph covering, called a “Wrapped quasicovering” (wqc) is defined. If __K, L__ are graphs dually embedded in an orientable surface __S__, then we may lift these embeddings to embeddings of dual graphs K̃,L̃ in orientable surfaces S̃, such that S̃ are branched cover

A fixed cube theorem for median graphs
✍ Hans-Jürgen Bandelt; Marcel van de Vel 📂 Article 📅 1987 🏛 Elsevier Science 🌐 English ⚖ 513 KB

The following result is proven: every edge-preserving self-map of a median graph leaves a cube invariant. This extends a fixed edge theorem for trees and parallels a result on invariant simplices in contractible graphs.
