Old and new generalizations of line graphs
Line graphs have been studied for over seventy years. In 1932, H. Whitney showed that for connected graphs, edge-isomorphism implies isomorphism except for K3 and K1,3. The line graph transformation is one of the most widely studied of all graph transformations. In its long history, the concept has...

description | Line graphs have been studied for over seventy years. In 1932, H.
Whitney showed that for connected graphs, edge-isomorphism
implies isomorphism except for K3 and K1,3. The line
graph transformation is one of the most widely studied of all
graph transformations. In its long history, the concept has been
rediscovered several times, with different names such as derived
graph, interchange graph, and edge-to-vertex dual. Line graphs
can also be considered as intersection graphs. Several variations
and generalizations of line graphs have been proposed and
studied. These include the concepts of total graphs, path graphs,
and others. In this brief survey we describe these and some more
recent generalizations and extensions including super line graphs
and triangle graphs. |
