On the class reconstruction number of trees

Harary and Lauri conjectured that the class reconstruction number of trees is 2, that is, each tree has two unlabelled vertex-deleted subtrees that are not both in the deck of any other tree. We show that each tree $T$ can be reconstructed up to isomorphism given two of its unlabelled subgraphs $T-u$ and $T-v$ under the assumption that $u$ and $v$ are chosen in a particular way. Our result does not completely resolve the conjecture of Harary and Lauri since the special property defining $u$ and $v$ cannot be recognised from the given subtrees $T-u$ and $T-v$.

Line-Broadcasting in Complete k-Trees

A line-broadcasting model in a connected graph $G=(V,E)$, $|V|=n$, is a model in which one vertex, called the {\it originator} of the broadcast holds a message that has to be transmitted to all vertices of the graph through placement of a series of calls over the graph. In this model, an informed vertex can transmit a message through a path of any length in a single time unit, as long as two transmissions do not use the same edge at the same time. Farley \cite{f} has shown that the process is completed within at most $\lceil \log_{2}n \rceil$ time units from any originator in a tree (and thus in any connected undirected graph). and that the cost of broadcasting one message from any vertex is at most $(n-1) \lceil \log_{2}n \rceil$. In this paper, we present lower and upper bounds for the cost to broadcast one message in a complete $k-$tree, from any vertex using the line-broadcasting model. We prove that if $B(u)$ is the minimum cost to broadcast in a graph $G=(V,E)$ from a vertex $u \in V$ using the line-broadcasting model, then $(1+o(1))n \le B(u) \le (2+o(1))n$, where $u$ is any vertex in a complete $k$-tree. Furthermore, for certain conditions, $B(u) \le (2-o(1))n$.

Anti-Ramsey numbers of small graphs

The anti-Ramsey number $AR(n,G$), for a graph $G$ and an integer $n\geq|V(G)|$, is defined to be the minimal integer $r$ such that in any edge-colouring of $K_n$ by at least $r$ colours there is a multicoloured copy of $G$, namely, a copy of $G$ whose edges have distinct colours. In this paper we determine the anti-Ramsey numbers of all graphs having at most four edges.

Anti-Ramsey numbers of graphs with small connected components

The anti-Ramsey number, $AR(n,G)$, for a graph $G$ and an integer $n\geq|V(G)|$, is defined to be the minimal integer $r$ such that in any edge-colouring of $K_n$ by at least $r$ colours there is a multicoloured copy of $G$, namely, a copy of $G$ that each of its edges has a distinct colour. In this paper we determine, for large enough $n$, $AR(n,L\cup tP_2)$ and $AR(n,L\cup kP_3)$ for any large enough $t$ and $k$, and a graph $L$ satisfying some conditions. Consequently, we determine $AR(n,G)$, for large enough $n$, where $G$ is $P_3\cup tP_2$ for any $t\geq 3$, $P_4\cup tP_2$ and $C_3\cup tP_2$ for any $t\geq 2$, $kP_3$ for any $k\geq 3$, $tP_2\cup kP_3$ for any $t\geq 1$, $k\geq 2$, and $P_{t+1}\cup kP_3$ for any $t\geq 3$, $k\geq 1$. Furthermore, we obtain upper and lower bounds for $AR(n,G)$, for large enough $n$, where $G$ is $P_{k+1}\cup tP_2$ and $C_k\cup tP_2$ for any $k\geq 4$, $t\geq 1$.
