Popis: | Motivated by a problem on message routing in communication networks, Graham and Pollak proposed a scheme for addressing the vertices of a graph G by N-tuples of three symbols in such a way that distances between vertices may readily be determined from their addresses. They observed that Nh(D), the maximum of the number of positive and the number of negative eigenvalues of the distance matrix D of G. A result of Gregory, Shader and Watts yields a necessary condition for equality to occur. As an illustration, we show that N > h(D)= 5 for all addressings of the Petersen graph and then give an optimal addressing by 6-tuples. © 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. MSC: 05C50; 05C20 |
