In this paper, we consider $\\gamma$-graphs of trees. We develop an algorithm for determining the $\\gamma$-graph of a tree, characterize which trees are $\\gamma$-graphs of trees, and further comment on the structure of $\\gamma$-graphs of trees and its connections with Cartesian product graphs, the set of graphs which can be obtained from the Cartesian product of graphs of order at least two.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-07-06T17:18:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C69" ], "keywords": [ "cartesian product graphs", "vertex set", "single vertex", "minimum dominating sets", "connections" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
