## Relations on a finite set V are viewed as weighted graphs. Using the language of graph theory two methods of partitioning V are examined. In one method, partitionings of V are obtained by selecting threshold values and applying them to a maximal weighted spanning forest. In another method a para

Abstract
The threshold weight of a graph G is introduced as a measure of the amount by which G differs from being a threshold graph. The threshold graphs are precisely the graphs whose threshold weights are 0. At the opposite extreme is the class of graphs for which the threshold weight is the maximum possible. Such graphs are defined as heavy graphs. Among the results are as following: A theorem that specifies the threshold weight of any triangleβfree graph; necessary and sufficient conditions for a heavy graph in terms of the solvability of a system of linear inequalities; some sufficient conditions for a graph to be heavy and a necessary condition (conjectured to be sufficient, as well) for a heavy graph in terms of its cliques.

## Abstract Suppose the edges of a graph __G__ are assigned 3βelement lists of real weights. Is it possible to choose a weight for each edge from its list so that the sums of weights around adjacent vertices were different? We prove that the answer is positive for several classes of graphs, includi
