We develop a technique to generate families of unlabeled 2-connected graphs using ear augmentations and apply this technique to two problems. In the first application, we search for uniquely K_r-saturated graphs and find the list of uniquely K_4-saturated graphs on at most 12 vertices, supporting current conjectures for this problem. In the second application, we verifying the Edge Reconstruction Conjecture for all 2-connected graphs on at most 12 vertices. This technique can be easily extended to more problems concerning 2-connected graphs.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-04-27T22:11:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C85" ], "keywords": [ "isomorph-free generation", "interesting graph families contain", "edge reconstruction conjecture", "ear decompositions", "second application" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1104.5261S" } } }
