1. An asymptotic relation between the wirelength of an embedding and the Wiener indexK. Jagadeesh Kumar, Sandi Klavžar, R. Sundara Rajan, Indra Rajasingh, T. M. Rajalaxmi, 2021, original scientific article Abstract: Wirelength is an important criterion to validate the quality of an embedding of a graph into a host graph and is used in particular in VLSI (Very-Large-Scale Integration) layout designs. Wiener index plays a significant role in mathematical chemistry, cheminformatics, and elsewhere. In this note these two concepts are related by proving that the Wiener index of a host graph is an upper bound for the wirelength of a given embedding. The wirelength of embedding complete ▫$2^p$▫-partite graphs into Cartesian products of paths and/or cycles as the function of the Wiener index is determined. The result is an asymptotic approximation of the general upper bound.
Keywords: Wiener index, embedding, wirelength, complete 2p-partite graph, Cartesian product of graphs, integer labeling

2. Roman domination number of the Cartesian products of paths and cyclesPolona Repolusk, Janez Žerovnik, 2012, original scientific article Abstract: Roman domination is a historically inspired variety of general domination such that every vertex is labeled with labels from $\{0,1,2\}$. Roman domination number is the smallest of the sums of labels fulfilling condition that every vertex, labeled 0, has a neighbor, labeled 2. Using algebraic approach we give ▫$O(C)$▫ time algorithm for computing Roman domination number of special classes of polygraphs (rota- and fasciagraphs). By implementing the algorithm we give formulas for Roman domination number of the Cartesian products of paths and cycles ▫$P_n \Box P_k$▫, ▫$P_n \Box C_k$▫ for ▫$k \leq 8$▫ and ▫$n \in {\mathbb N}$▫ and for ▫$C_n \Box P_k$▫ and ▫$C_n \Box C_k$▫ for ▫$k \leq 5$▫, ▫$n \in {\mathbb N}$▫. We also give a list of Roman graphs among investigated families.

3. Weak k-reconstruction of Cartesian productsWilfried Imrich, Blaž Zmazek, Janez Žerovnik, 2003, original scientific article Abstract: By Ulam's conjecture every finite graph ▫$G$▫ can be reconstructed from its deck of vertex deleted subgraphs. The conjecture is still open, but many special cases have been settled. In particular, one can reconstruct Cartesian products. We consider the case of ▫$k$▫-vertex deleted subgraphs of Cartesian products and prove that one can decide whether a graph ▫$H$▫ is a ▫$k$▫-vertex deleted subgraph of a Cartesian product ▫$G$▫ with at least ▫$k+1$▫ prime factors on at least ▫$k+1$▫ vertices each, and that ▫$H$▫ uniquely determines ▫$G$▫. This extends previous works of the authors and Sims. This paper also contains a counterexample to a conjecture of MacAvaney.

4. The periphery graph of a median graphBoštjan Brešar, Manoj Changat, Ajitha R. Subhamathi, Aleksandra Tepeh, 2010, original scientific article Abstract: The periphery graph of a median graph is the intersection graph of its peripheral subgraphs. We show that every graph without a universal vertex can be realized as the periphery graph of a median graph. We characterize those median graphs whose periphery graph is the join of two graphs and show that they are precisely Cartesian products of median graphs. Path-like median graphs are introduced as the graphs whose periphery graph has independence number 2, and it is proved that there are path-like median graphs with arbitrarily large geodetic number. Peripheral expansion with respect to periphery graph is also considered, and connections with the concept of crossing graph are established.

5. Recognizing weighted directed Cartesian graph bundlesBlaž Zmazek, Janez Žerovnik, 2000, original scientific article Abstract: In this paper we show that methods for recognizing Cartesian graph bundles can be generalized to weighted digraphs. The main result is an algorithm which lists the sets of degenerate arcs for all representations of digraph as a weighted directed Cartesian graph bundle over simple base digraphs not containing transitive tournament on three vertices. Two main notions are used.The first one is the new relation ▫$\vec{\delta}^\ast$▫ defined among the arcs of a digraph as a weighted directed analogue of the well-known relation ▫$\delta^\ast$▫. The second one is the concept of half-convex subgraphs. A subgraph ▫$H$▫ is half-convex in ▫$G$▫ if any vertex ▫$x \in G \setminus H$▫ has at most one predecessor and at most one successor

6. On Vizing's conjectureBoštjan Brešar, 2001, original scientific article Abstract: A dominating set ▫$D$▫ gor a graph ▫$G$▫ is a subset ▫$V(G)$▫ such that any vertex in ▫$V(G)-D$▫ has a neighbor in ▫$D$▫, and a domination number ▫$\gamma(G)$▫ is the size of a minimum dominating set for ▫$G$▫. For the Cartesian product ▫$G \Box H$▫ Vizing's conjecture states that ▫$\gamma(G \Box H) \ge \gamma(G)\gamma(H)$▫ for every pair of graphs ▫$G,H$▫. In this paper we introduce a new concept which extends the ordinary domination of graphs, and prove that the conjecture holds when ▫$\gamma(G) = \gamma(H) = 3$▫.

7. On the rainbow connection of Cartesian products and their subgraphsSandi Klavžar, Gašper Mekiš, 2012, original scientific article Abstract: Rainbow connection number of Cartesian products and their subgraphs are considered. Previously known bounds are compared and non-existence of such bounds for subgraphs of products are discussed. It is shown that the rainbow connection number of an isometric subgraph of a hypercube is bounded above with the rainbow connection number of the hypercube. Isometric subgraphs of hypercubes with the rainbow connection number smaller as much as possible than the rainbow connection of the hypercube are constructed. The concept of c-strong rainbow coloring is introduced. In particular it is proved that the so-called ▫$\Theta$▫-coloring of an isometric subgraph of a hypercube is its unique optimal c-strong rainbow coloring.

8. On [Theta]-graphs of partial cubesSandi Klavžar, Matjaž Kovše, 2007, original scientific article Abstract: The ▫$\Theta$▫-graph ▫$\Theta(G)$▫ of a partial cube ▫$G$▫ is the intersection graph of the equivalence classes of the Djokovic-Winkler relation. ▫$\Theta$▫-graphs that are 2-connected, trees, or complete graphs are characterized. In particular, ▫$\Theta(G)$▫ is complete if and only if ▫$G$▫ can be obtained from ▫$K_1$▫ by a sequence of (newly introduced) dense expansions. ▫$\Theta$▫-graphs are also compared with familiar concepts of crossing graphs and ▫$\tau$▫-graphs.

9. Edge-transitive lexicographic and cartesian productsWilfried Imrich, Ali Iranmanesh, Sandi Klavžar, Abolghasem Soltani, 2016, original scientific article Abstract: In this note connected, edge-transitive lexicographic and Cartesian products are characterized. For the lexicographic product ▫$G \circ H$▫ of a connected graph ▫$G$▫ that is not complete by a graph ▫$H$▫, we show that it is edge-transitive if and only if ▫$G$▫ is edge-transitive and ▫$H$▫ is edgeless. If the first factor of ▫$G \circ H$▫ is non-trivial and complete, then ▫$G \circ H$▫ is edge-transitive if and only if ▫$H$▫ is the lexicographic product of a complete graph by an edgeless graph. This fixes an error of Li, Wang, Xu, and Zhao (Appl. Math. Lett. 24 (2011) 1924--1926). For the Cartesian product it is shown that every connected Cartesian product of at least two non-trivial factors is edge-transitive if and only if it is the Cartesian power of a connected, edge- and vertex-transitive graph.

10. A note on the chromatic number of the square of the Cartesian product of two cyclesZehui Shao, Aleksander Vesel, 2013, other scientific articles Abstract: The square ▫$G^2$▫ of a graph ▫$G$▫ is obtained from ▫$G$▫ by adding edges joining all pairs of nodes at distance 2 in ▫$G$▫. In this note we prove that ▫$chi((C_mBox C_n)^2) le 6$ for $m, n ge 40$▫. This confirms Conjecture 19 stated in [É. Sopena, J. Wu, Coloring the square of the Cartesian product of two cycles, Discrete Math. 310 (2010) 2327-2333].
