本文证明了关于识别码大小上界的猜想对所有无三角图成立,并给出了需要正数常数的例外图列表,同时推广了Bondy定理作为证明工具。

摘要:

无闭孪生图G的识别码是G的一个顶点集合S,使得G中任意两个顶点的闭邻域与S的交集各不相同。曾有猜想:存在常数c,使得对于每个阶为n且最大度为Δ的连通无闭孪生图G,该图G存在大小至多为((Δ-1)/Δ)n+c的识别码。在文献[D. Chakraborty, F. Foucaud, M. A. Henning, 和 T. Lehtilä. 给定最大度图中的识别码:树的刻画. arXiv preprint arXiv:2403.13172, 2024]中,我们证明了该猜想对所有树成立。在本文中,我们证明该猜想对所有无三角图成立,且需要c>0的例外图列表与树相同:对于Δ≥3,c=1/3即足够,且仅有一组12棵树在Δ=3时需要c>0;当Δ≥4时,该集合缩减为仅剩Δ-星。我们的证明采用归纳法,其起点是上述关于树的结果。在此过程中,我们证明了关于导出子集的Bondy定理[J. A. Bondy. 导出子集. Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 1972]的一个广义版本,并将其作为证明工具。我们还利用关于无三角图的主要结果,为可通过移除t条边变为无三角的图证明了上界((Δ-1)/Δ)n+1/Δ+4t。

英文摘要:

An identifying code of a closed-twin-free graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that any two vertices in $G$ have a distinct, nonempty intersection between their closed neighborhood and $S$. It was conjectured that there exists a constant $c$ such that for every connected closed-twin-free graph $G$ of order $n$ and maximum degree $Δ$, the graph $G$ admits an identifying code of size at most $\left( \frac{Δ-1}Δ \right) n+c$. In [D. Chakraborty, F. Foucaud, M. A. Henning, and T. Lehtilä. Identifying codes in graphs of given maximum degree: Characterizing trees. Discrete Mathematics, 349(2):114826, 2026], we proved the conjecture for all trees. In this article, we show that the conjecture holds for all triangle-free graphs, with the same list of exceptional graphs needing $c>0$ as for trees: for $Δ\ge 3$, $c=1/3$ suffices and there is only a set of 12 trees requiring $c>0$ for $Δ=3$, and when $Δ\ge 4$ this set is reduced to the $Δ$-star only. Our proof is by induction, whose starting point is the above result for trees. Along the way, we prove a generalized version of Bondy's theorem on induced subsets [J. A. Bondy. Induced subsets. Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 1972] that we use as a tool in our proofs. We also use our main result for triangle-free graphs, to prove the upper bound $\left( \frac{Δ-1}Δ \right) n+1/Δ+4t$ for graphs that can be made triangle-free by the removal of $t$ edges.
