We show that in any n-partite tournament, where n/> 3, with no transmitters and no 3-kings, the number of 4-kings is at least eight. All n-partite tournaments, where n/>3, having eight 4-kings and no 3-kings are completely characterized. This solves the problem proposed in Koh and Tan (accepted).
In this paper, we study the achromatic indices of the regular complete multipartite graphs and obtain the following results: (1) A good upper bound for the achromatic index of the regular complete multipartite graph which gives the exact values of an infinite family of graphs and solves a problem p
A subgraph H of a graph G is called a star-subgraph if each component of H is a star. The star-arboricify of G, denoted by sa(G), is the minimum number of star-subgraphs that partition the edges of G. In this paper we show that sa(G) is [r/21 + 1 or [r/2] + 2 for the complete r-regular multipartite
A multipartite tournament is an orientation of a complete multipartite graph. Simple derivations are obtained of the numbers of unlabeled acyclic and unicyclic multipartite tournaments, and unlabeled bipartite tournaments with exactly k cycles, which are pairwise vertex-disjoint.
Let T = (V; E) be a tournament. The C3-structure of T is the family C3(T ) of the subsets {x; y; z} of V such that the subtournament T ({x; y; z}) is a cycle on three vertices. In another respect, a subset X of V is an interval of T provided that for a; b β X and x β V -X , (a; x) β E if and only if
