There are many equivalent definitions of a forest. Prove that the following conditions on a simple graph G re equivalent. A. G is acyclic. 3. Each component of G is a tree. . The number of components in G equals the number of vertices minus the number of edges. . For each u, v e V (G), there exists at most one u, v-path.
Graph 2 Prove the following statements using one example for each (consider n > 5). (a) A graph G is bipartite if and only if it has no odd cycles. (b) The number of edges in a bipartite graph with n vertices is at most (n2 /2). (c) Given any two vertices u and v of a graph G, every u–v walk contains a u–v path.

Question 1# (a) Let G be a connected graph and C a non-trivial circuit in G. Prove directly that if an edge e fa, b is removed from C then the subgraph S C G that remains is still connected. "Directly' means using only the definitions of the concepts involved, in this case connected' and 'circuit'. Hint: If z and y are vertices of G connected by path that includes e, is there an alternative path connecting x to y...
B-1 Graph coloring Given an undirected graph G (V. E), a k-coloring of G is a function c : V → {0, 1, . . . ,k-1} such that c(u)≠c(v) for every edge (u, v) ∈ E. In other words, the numbers 0.1,... k-1 represent the k colors, and adjacent vertices different colors. must havec. Let d be the maximum degree of any vertex in a graph G. Prove that we can color G with d +1 colors.

Problem 1: Given a graph G (V,E) a subset U S V of nodes is called a node cover if each edge in E is adjacent to at least one node in U. Given a graph, we do not know how to find the minimum node cover in an efficient manner. But if we restriet G to be a tree, then it is possible. Give a greedy algorithm that finds the minimum node cover for a tree. Analyze its correctness...
Problem #1 Let a "path" on a weighted graph G = (V,E,W) be defined as a sequence of distinct vertices V-(vi,v2, ,%)-V connected by a sequence of edges {(vi, t), (Ug, ta), , (4-1,Un)) : We say that (V, E) is a path from tovn. Sketch a graph with 10 vertices and a path consisting of 5 vertices and four edges. Formulate a binary integer program that could be used to find the path of least total weight from one...
Reachability. You are given a connected undirected graph G = (V, E ) as an adjacency list. The graph G might not be connected. You want to fill-in a two-dimensional array R[,] so that R[u,v] is 1 if there is a path from vertex u to vertex v. If no such path exists, then R[u,v] is 0. From this two-dimensional array, you can determine whether vertex u is reachable from vertex v in O(1) time for any pair of vertices...
