Abstract
SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 2447-2467, September 2024. Abstract. In 1996 Guiduli and Mohar proposed a conjecture that predicts the structure of connected graphs with minimum degree [math] and minimum algebraic connectivity. We settle this conjecture for the case [math]. As a result, we conclude that the minimum algebraic connectivity of connected graphs with [math] vertices and [math] is [math], where [math] is a function in [math] that tends to 0 as [math] goes to infinity. This enables us to provide a positive answer to the problem of whether graphs with [math] and nearly maximum diameter have asymptotically minimum algebraic connectivity.
期刊介绍:
SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics (SIDMA) publishes research papers of exceptional quality in pure and applied discrete mathematics, broadly interpreted. The journal''s focus is primarily theoretical rather than empirical, but the editors welcome papers that evolve from or have potential application to real-world problems. Submissions must be clearly written and make a significant contribution.
Topics include but are not limited to:
properties of and extremal problems for discrete structures
combinatorial optimization, including approximation algorithms
algebraic and enumerative combinatorics
coding and information theory
additive, analytic combinatorics and number theory
combinatorial matrix theory and spectral graph theory
design and analysis of algorithms for discrete structures
discrete problems in computational complexity
discrete and computational geometry
discrete methods in computational biology, and bioinformatics
probabilistic methods and randomized algorithms.
