Abstract

A graph is point determining if distinct vertices have distinct neighborhoods. The nucleus of a point‐determining graph is the set G^O^ of all vertices, v, such that G–v is point determining. In this paper we show that the size, Ο‰(G), of a maximum clique in G satisfies Ο‰(G) β©½ 2|Ο€ (G)^O^|, where Ο€(G) (the point determinant of G) is obtained from G by identifying vertices which have the same neighborhood.

Using a technique developed by A. Nilli (1991, Discrete Math. 91, 207 210), we estimate from above the Cheeger number of a finite connected graph G of small degree (2(G) 5) admitting sufficiently distant edges. ## 2001 Academic Press Let G=(V(G), E(G)) be a finite connected graph. The Cheeger numb

A graph 1 is parity embedded in a surface if a closed path in the graph is orientation preserving or reversing according to whether its length is even or odd. The parity demigenus of 1 is the minimum of 2&/(S) (where / is the Euler characteristic) over all surfaces S in which 1 can be parity embedde
