How many nonisomorphic subgraphs does \({{\rm{K}}_{\rm{3}}}\)have?

\({{\rm{K}}_{\rm{3}}}\) has four nonisomorphic subgraphs.

Step by Step Solution

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Step 1: Definitions.

A whole graph A basic graph with \({\rm{n}}\)vertices and an edge between each pair of vertices are\({{\rm{K}}_{\rm{n}}}\left( {{\rm{n}} \ge {\rm{1}}} \right)\).

\({{\rm{G}}_{\rm{1}}}{\rm{ = }}\left( {{{\rm{V}}_{\rm{1}}}{\rm{,}}{{\rm{E}}_{\rm{1}}}} \right){\rm{\& }}{{\rm{G}}_{\rm{2}}}{\rm{ = }}\left( {{{\rm{V}}_{\rm{2}}}{\rm{,}}{{\rm{E}}_{\rm{2}}}} \right)\)are two basic graphs being isomorphic if and only if there is a one-to-one and onto function \({\rm{f:}}{{\rm{V}}_1} \to {{\rm{V}}_{\rm{2}}}\)that makes \({\rm{a}}\)and \({\rm{b}}\)adjacent in \({{\rm{G}}_{\rm{1}}}\)if and only if \({\rm{f}}\left( {\rm{a}} \right)\)and \({\rm{f}}\left( b \right)\)are adjacent in\({{\rm{G}}_2}\).

Step 2:To determine how many nonisomorphic subgraphs\({{\rm{K}}_{\rm{3}}}\)contains.

There are three vertices in \({K_3}\)and one edge between each pair of vertices.

\({K_3}\)subgraphs have the same vertices as \({K_3}\& 0,1,2,or3\)edges.

\({\rm{0}}\)edging:

A subgraph of \({K_3}\)is a graph of \({K_3}\)with no edges.

One edge:

A subgraph of \({K_3}\)is a graph containing precisely one of the three edges. Because renaming the vertices might result in the graph with one edge obtained below, any subgraphs of \({K_3}\)with one edge are isomorphic.

Two edgings:

A subgraph of \({K_3}\)is a graph containing exactly two of the three edges. Because renaming the vertices might result in the graph with two edges obtained below, any subgraphs of \({K_3}\)with two edges are isomorphic.

Three edges:

The subgraph \({K_3}\)is a subgraph of itself.

Step 3: Result.

The total number of nonisomorphic subgraphs of\({K_4}\)is four.

Three edges:

Two edges:

One edges:

Zero edge:

As a result, \({{\rm{K}}_{\rm{3}}}\)has four nonisomorphic subgraphs.

Find the chromatic number of the given graph.

Frequencies for mobile radio (or cellular) telephones are assigned by zones. Each zone is assigned a set of frequencies to be used by vehicles in that zone. The same frequency cannot be used in different zones when interference can occur between telephones in these zones. Explain how a \(k - tuple\) coloring can be used to assign \(k\) frequencies to each mobile radio zone in a region.

Question: Show that \(g\left( n \right) \ge \frac{n}{3}\). (Hint: Consider the polygon with \(3k\) vertices that resembles a comb with \(k\) prongs, such as the polygon with \(15\) sides shown here.

Show that every planar graph G can be colored using five or fewer colors. (Hint: Use the hint provided for Exercise 40.)

The famous Art Gallery Problem asks how many guards are needed to see all parts of an art gallery, where the gallery is the interior and boundary of a polygon with n sides. To state this problem more precisely, we need some terminology. A point x inside or on the boundary of a simple polygon P covers or sees a point y inside or on P if all points on the line segment xy are in the interior or on the boundary of P. We say that a set of points is a guarding set of a simple polygon P if for every point y inside P or on the boundary of P there is a point x in this guarding set that sees y. Denote by G(P) the minimum number of points needed to guard the simple polygon P. The art gallery problem asks for the function g(n), which is the maximum value of G(P) over all simple polygons with n vertices. That is, g(n) is the minimum positive integer for which it is guaranteed that a simple polygon with n vertices can be guarded with g(n) or fewer guards.
