An $L(j,k)$-labeling of a graph G is a vertex labeling such that the difference of the labels of any adjacent vertices is at least $j$ and that of any vertices of distance two is at least $k$ for given $j$ and $k$. The minimum span of all L(2, 1)-labelings of G is called the ${\lambda}$-number of G and is denoted by ${\lambda}(G)$. In this paper, we find a lower bound of the ${\lambda}$-number of the Cartesian product $K_m{\Box}C_n$ of the complete graph $K_m$ of order $m$ and the cycle $C_n$ of order $n$. In fact, we show that when $n{\geq}3$, ${\lambda}(K_4{\Box}C_n){\geq}7$ and the equality holds if and only if n is a multiple of 8. Moreover when $m{\geq}5$, ${\lambda}(K_m{\Box}C_n){\geq}2m-1$ and the equality holds if and only if $n$ is even.

We consider 'ordinary' graphs: that is, finite undirected graphs with no loops or multiple edges. An intersection representation of a graph G is a function r from V(G), the set of vertices of G, into a family of sets S such that distinct points $\chi$$_{\alpha}$ and $\chi$$_{\beta}$/ of V(G) are. neighbors in G precisely when ${\gamma}$($\chi$$_{\alpha}$)∩${\gamma}$($\chi$$_{\beta}$/)$\neq$ø, A graph G is a rigid circuit grouph if every cycle in G has at least one triangular chord in G. In this paper we consider the main theorem; A graph G has an intersection representation by arcs on an acyclic graph if and only if is a normal rigid circuit graph.uit graph.d circuit graph.uit graph.

Let G be a planar graph. It is proved that if G does not contain a k-cycle with a chord for some k ${\ni}$ {4,5,6}, then G is total-($\Delta(G)+2$)-colorable.

The enhanced pyramid graph was recently proposed as an interconnection network model in parallel processing for maximizing regularity in pyramid networks. We prove that there are two edge-disjoint Hamiltonian cycles in the enhanced pyramid networks. This investigation demonstrates its superior property in edge fault tolerance. This result is optimal in the sense that the minimum degree of the graph is only four.

For a finite simplicial graph 𝚪, let G(𝚪) denote the right-angled Artin group on the complement graph of 𝚪. For path graphs P_k, cycle graphs C_ℓ and complete bipartite graphs K_n,m, this article characterizes the embeddability of G(K_n,m) in G(P_k) and in G(C_ℓ).

A tournament T is an orientation of a complete graph and an arc in T is called pancyclic if it is contained in a cycle of length l for all $3{\leq}l{\leq}n$, where n is the cardinality of the vertex set of T. In 1994, Moon [5] introduced the graph parameter h(T) as the maximum number of pancyclic arcs contained in the same Hamiltonian cycle of T and showed that $h(T){\geq}3$ for all strong tournaments with $n{\geq}3$. Havet [4] later conjectured that $h(T){\geq}2k+1$ for all k-strong tournaments and proved the case k = 2. In 2005, Yeo [7] gave the lower bound $h(T){\geq}\frac{k+5}{2}$ for all k-strong tournaments T. In this note, we will improve his bound to $h(T){\geq}\frac{2k+7}{3}$.

The architecture of an interconnection network is usually represented by a graph, and a graph G is bipancyclic if it contains a cycle for every even length from 4 to ${\mid}V(G){\mid}$. In this article, we analyze the conditional edge-fault-tolerant properties of an enhanced hypercube, which is an attractive variant of a hypercube that can be obtained by adding some complementary edges. For any n-dimensional enhanced hypercube with at most (2n-3) faulty edges in which each vertex is incident with at least two fault-free edges, we showed that there exists a fault-free cycle for every even length from 4 to $2^n$ when n($n{\geq}3$) and k have the same parity. We also show that a fault-free cycle for every odd length exists from n-k+2 to $2^n-1$ when n($n{\geq}2$) and k have the different parity.

Choi and Park introduced an invariant of a finite simple graph, called signed a-number, arising from computing certain topological invariants of some specific kinds of real toric manifolds. They also found the signed a-numbers of path graphs, cycle graphs, complete graphs, and star graphs. We introduce a signed a-polynomial which is a generalization of the signed a-number and gives a-, b-, and c-numbers. The signed a-polynomial of a graph G is related to the $Poincar\acute{e}$ polynomial $P_{M(G)}(z)$, which is the generating function for the Betti numbers of the real toric manifold M(G). We give the generating functions for the signed a-polynomials of not only path graphs, cycle graphs, complete graphs, and star graphs, but also complete bipartite graphs and complete multipartite graphs. As a consequence, we find the Euler characteristic number and the Betti numbers of the real toric manifold M(G) for complete multipartite graphs G.

In this paper, we introduce the generalized ideal-based zero-divisor graph structure of near-ring N, denoted by $\widehat{{\Gamma}_I(N)}$. It is shown that if I is a completely reflexive ideal of N, then every two vertices in $\widehat{{\Gamma}_I(N)}$ are connected by a path of length at most 3, and if $\widehat{{\Gamma}_I(N)}$ contains a cycle, then the core K of $\widehat{{\Gamma}_I(N)}$ is a union of triangles and rectangles. We have shown that if $\widehat{{\Gamma}_I(N)}$ is a bipartite graph for a completely semiprime ideal I of N, then N has two prime ideals whose intersection is I.

The base $l(S)$ of a signed digraph S is the maximum number $k$ such that for any vertices $u$, $v$ of S, there is a pair of walks of length $k$ from $u$ to $v$ with different signs. A graph can be regarded as a digraph if we consider its edges as two-sided arcs. A signed cyclic graph $\tilde{C_n}$ is a signed digraph obtained from the cycle $C_n$ by giving signs to all arcs. In this paper, we compute the base of a signed cyclic graph $\tilde{C_n}$ when $\tilde{C_n}$ is neither symmetric nor antisymmetric. Combining with previous results, the base of all signed cyclic graphs are obtained.
